Huge congratulations to the guild, who have been leading since the third boss and never dropped their first place, earning 9 WFs throughout the raid.The boss took 270+ pulls, 10 days and had plenty of issues along the way, but let's take a look at the final pull right here:Ok, just a quick heads up for you race following veterans: I'm about to eat. I know exactly how much I need to grind and how many I need to kill of each and every mob. This seems to indicate that Blizzard actually pushed a button to despawn him so that a bugged kill didn't happen after something going wrong after the gate spawn.Raise your hand if you’ve ever been the cause of a boss being despawned for an entire region ♂️Here's the weirdest pull of all time. Involving other raiding guilds in the event has always been a goal for us and we are happy to be able to take the first steps here while beginning to work on a longer-term concept for the future. We're testing a likely fix right now.Complexity Limit getting some serious progress done as they get another lowest attempt, this time at 16.4%!Just a quick update, the lowest % for Method mentioned below was an error, it was actually not the final phase so the Method best is still 29%!It's best pull o'clock it seems, as Limit just got their best on Carapace so far, with a 25.5% pull! They're now in the big group at 7/12 as well.We have some more lower-tier kills, after Future's World 11th on Shad'har, Walthrough and Vision came through with the 12th and 13th, claiming the EU and US 7th as well.And so we only have Il'gynoth left before the big two, pretty much mirroring Eternal Palace in terms of difficulty curve. They cleared out the Auction House on three separate servers in obtaining crafting materials and BOEs, while Limit was While Limit kept their raid progress and tactics a mystery by not streaming, the largest indicator of their raid prep being the transfer, Method was the opposite. Here it is:EDIT: It seems I was wrong on this one as I trusted the commentators, it seems it wasn't the final phase but only the third Il'gynoth appearance and there was still one organ and 100% Il'gynoth to go! Congratulations!Since we're talking about raid progress here, we should also mention Blackwing Lair has also been cleared over in WoW Classic, with Calamity, Progress and Apes taking the top 3 on Nefarian, some 42 minutes after servers went up.We have a 4th place in the race! Game director Ion Hazzikostas confirmed it's a bug and Blizzard are working on a fix and Limit will be practicing the boss while waiting for the fix:Yeah, we're here working on a fix.
Congrats!Skyline and Chao Jie move up in the world as they claim the World 10 and 11th spots, as Practice get there a little later and move down to 12th, all of them on 9/12 and on to Il'gynoth progress.Method have also poked through to the Chamber of Heart secret Mythic phase:Limit have finished up their splits and are now heading back to N'Zoth:alright done with splits we BLAST. Public access to the broadcast studio for the first time, watch Method race to World First live at the TaKeTV Studio Gaming Bar (dates/times to be announced) Big things may happen todaySome really good news as Alpha have downed Il'gynoth and join Pieces on 10/12 and Carapace progress, which means we will soon see 4 guilds progressing on N'Zoth himself!With the prevalence of Horde at the very top of raiding, it can be quite refreshing seeing an Alliance guild claiming a high ranking kill.Method had their best pull a short while ago, at 74% on pull 74 (yes, really), so let's take a look at how they take on the fight:The 9/12 group keeps on growing, with Jitianhong being the latest one to reach it, Asia 2nd, World 9th.Alpha shows who the big man of Asia is, being the first from the region to down 9/12, meaning they now are Asia #1, World #7!Bug Dumb Guild also get a kill, downing Ra-den world 10th, Us 2nd, and move to 9/12 and Il'gynoth.Midwinter have managed to get Drest'agath down US/OC 3rd and are on 8/12, putting them in 17th place overall.Complexity Limit are also going to head to Heroics now after the "passive pull", and that's going to be it for their Mythic pulls for today.Here comes Limit's next idea, as they go through the gate, clear the Annihilator in there and then... well just kinda stay there while nothing happened and N'Zoth keeps casting all his abilities while they're safe in the chamber:Some more pulls after the bugged one for Limit, with a 57% best as well. They've pushed to 18% and there was no immune shield or Gate being available, so that's it for the fight, which quite obviously was not planned.Method have dipped into Heroics, but not the full array of splits, but only 1 or 2 raids.And here's Limit Gm Max with comments on the fight:no words for that shit literally chain wiping to the boss not phasing at 25% because he happens to be castingWeeeel....it seems Blizzard aren't done with messing with the fight. Today might be the day we see the boss fall or at least see the sub-25% phase, all depending on those Corruption nerfs!Method have finished their reclear, and are once again back at N'zoth. We still don't have a good idea of where Pieces are however, so they might me considerably closer.We have an official (public)response to the theory that there was in fact more to the N'Zoth fight that was removed:Not sure where that theory got started. As long as nothing has changed and everything goes to play I will be aiming for 60 in 3 days played time!
And yes I just did the update because I wanted to mention the guild name.We have a new best pull from Method with a significant 10+% improvement! As the guild itself we offer stability and people with the same mindset as yourself - raiding hardcore and down bosses faster than any other guild. Now it's time for Ra-den as they continue to catch up to Method and Pieces.Let's take a look at Complexity Limit's best Carapace pull so far, clocking in at 34% in phase 3:A whole lot of guilds downed Vexiona since we last checked in with the purple one yesterday, so let's take a look.
