Fuck vaelstraz. that fight was a PITA. twin emps and cthun kinda sucked too. Twin emps not so much after your raid got execution down.

My guild killed Twin emps on night 2 of attempts, was probably one of the quickest kills I know of once starting attemps. The other "powerhouse" guild on our server that was alliance(I was horde) took 3 nights to learn the trash from the wasp(wtf was her name) to twin emps lol.

Yea Cthun was an awesome fight as well, we went from just practicing the encounter to beating it near flawless, was awesome, I have it recorded somewhere. Need to find that again.

I played the free 30 day trial then promptly returned to Anarchy Online.

EDIT: I played it before they came out with any expansions. I think it had been out a year at most. I liked the mechanics of the game and all, and I made it up to level ~40 but the one thing I absolutely COULD NOT STAND were the graphics. All that pastel/cartoonish looking crap made me wanna vomit after playing any longer than an hour.

i hear a lot of this and its a legit gripe. I dont mind it tho. Probably becuase i was expecting as much having played the shit out of the RTS series.

I was the pvp guildleader of Myth on Burning Legion. I played from beta through a couple months of Burning Crusade. On average, everyone was stupid or bad, or a combination of both. No one could follow instructions. No one could read; they required a headset. The content was easy. NPCs were tethered. Leveling was easy. The detriment of being a poor player wasn't severe enough.

With all the hatred out of the way, the first 6-8 months were pretty awesome. Unbalanced pvp and good times with leetspeak. Taurens bashing skulls in Southshore with Arcanite Reapers. That changed. Then I had some fun fighting pvp gold farmers. That was fun for a while. Original battlegrounds were fun. I relate this mostly to a new style of mmorpg, more than WoW itself being fun.

Expansion and arenas and balancing made it no fun for me. Hooray for 1gp for 17¢ though. At least you can come out with more than you put in.

Sadly, its one of the only games I left because I was tired of it.. not because there was something better.

Southshore/Tarren Mills fights were the best, BGs ruined that =(

I loved rolling in with a windfurry Arcanite Reaper and 1 shotting casters then trying to get out of the mass of people alive after doing so.

I'm on a long break from WoW, not because I think it's a terrible game - it really isn't.

I'm looking forward to Cataclysm.

Fishing was the best part of WOW.

in most of the cases I listed it was the nature of the encounter rather (extensive transitioning, one person's mistake will wipe) rather than the sheer DPSfest that made them challenging. (Altho oh dear god Brutallus...)

Caster tanking introduced in BC was sooooooooo twitchy. I had to do Capernian, Leotheras, and probably something else I am forgetting right now. Man it was so bad on transitions.

Angrysteel stole my bike. Leotheras is still one of my favorite fights I loved it so much.

I was in the 2nd Horde group my server to get Rusted Proto Drakes (Uld HMs) and 1st Horde (2nd overall) on server to get Bloodbathed Drakes (ICC HMs) so to anyone saying people haven't done HMs... You're wrong because that shit was cake and the game just requires being there to get anything.

I think the reason I left WoW was bad memories from pushing Algalon and Yogg with an OT who spoke Spanish and lived in Columbia(I was MT/officer).
