After the raiders' personality research last year we'd like to talk about Zeotrix's research about World of Warcraft and Democracy. We feel it's important to introduce the community to researchers and get their results posted back for everyone to see. If you have time, please support our fellow researchers so we all can benefit from their data. This message is from Zeotrix:
This is the video from our first Ascendant Council kill, which happened before the changes to the encounter (Liquid Ice dealt less damage, and the Chain Lightning instantly killed pretty much all of melee). Check out the video here.
A long day spent raiding yielded results - we finally managed to slay Nefarian!
Our Theralion and Valiona 25-man heroic mode kill video is now out, click here to watch it.
The second day of year 2011 brought us Ascendant Council 25-man heroic mode kill. This was one of the fights we were most looking forward to after beta testing. It was a huge letdown for some, but others enjoyed it. Somewhat bittersweet.
Also, a big thank you for the melee DPS'ers who play in the guild. They had to pass up spots again for alts, simply because the encounter design is incredibly punishing for any melee. It's a pretty glaring oversight when bringing in more than one or two of them results in ridiculous increases in damage taken in the last phase due to non-stop chaining chain lightning. Dropping out melee characters in favor of ranged ones has been a recurring theme throughout this whole raiding tier, but we hope that it's over now with only the end bosses and Sinestra left.
Here's to hoping next tier of raiding won't favor ranged by design. Maybe even go wild and give some incentive to bring in melee, too.
Remember the personality test we did in the beginning of December? Personality Test Results, Part 2: Analysis and Discussion blog entry by Ladan is finally here. It's going to dig deeper to the data our, Manaflask's, MMO-champion's, and other various site's readers gave to the team. Head over to the actual post for more insight to what the numbers actually mean and how they should be used.
We opened year 2011 with Theralion and Valiona kill in 25-man heroic mode. Screenshot incoming in a moment.
Also, in case you didn't notice, the site commentating system has now been integrated with forum accounts. This means one needs to log in with her forum account to be able to comment on the news.
