I have a question for the guys at projectlore:

At burning Crusade there was Isle Quel Danas as a main source of daily quests, i have searched almost every where in norhrend and didn't find a place like that, where is the daily quest central in the WoTLK expansion?

That was awesome

@omar

You need to remember that Isle of Quel'danas wasn't introduced until patch 2.4 (a.k.a. The Sunwell). Considering that we're still on 3.0. ... something, it's most probable that we'll have to wait quite awhile. (WotLK has only been out for little over a month, anyway.)

For me so far, doing the faction dailies in Grizzly Hills and the Sons of Hodir dailies in The Storm Peaks are the closest to being a concentration of dailies (like IQD). Hope the info helps you.

@PL

Yes, getting hit by Ingvar's nova after the boss resurrects won't kill you (unless you're almost dead already). But let's be honest here: Is it necessary to make your healer spend more mana than he/she needs to?

As a newly-spec'ed resto shaman, I can't begin to tell you how annoying that silencing effect is. Resto shamans have only the one HoT, Riptide. So it's either that spell, or I try to do Healing Wave and Chain Heal. Fun-ness, especially when you're doing heroic Utgarde Keep. >_<

I highly suggest that if you have a druid or priest in your pug, have that player do some off-heal HoTs. Also, I find that having the addon "Deadly Boss Mods" is helpful in giving me a heads-up for when *not* to cast.

Omg... how can you wipe on Ingvar... When we spank him (prot warrior, holy paly, 2 dk of unspecified talent build and boomkin) I just tank him where he stands without any running and screaming. Well, but wipe is another way of +1 episode.

@Evander:

I think they wiped because their healer is spec'd Enhancement. X_x

Hmm, i run this with guildies and have done since we dinged 80, IMO this is the easiest HC in wotlk and even with quest blues and AH blues on our group 'tactics' for this boss has always been tank'n'spank and burn him down asap, all you guys seem to have succeeded in doing is making this place look a lot harder than it really is, and come on guys 8 episodes for a single hc :( where the hell is the naxx run? give us something we actually want to see instead of some crappy instance we've all been in 10 times

December 24, 2008 | Unregistered CommenterSeveer

OMG i just actually watched it and its not even on HC lolz

Ha ha ha ha haa, awesome.

Dorkin's is getting better at expresions by the moment, his expressions on the explanation and word usage was truly epic.

DR.Dark/Snoobins, the fearless/confused leader.
Lylovette, the iron wall.
Goggins, the awesome.
Dorkins, the loosen up dude next character whose just plain cool/wiping.
Juggynaut, the silent dude who does what he's supposed to.
Jeff, the buff bot that alex likes to taunt =)

After he resurrects. Can you use Exorcism since he's undead? o.o

December 25, 2008 | Unregistered CommenterRey

Ok Jeff... Im not complaining, i just wanna help you pull some more dps. 1. Use Concecration, Divine Storm and Judgements whenever you can. 2. Whenever you face undead/demons, use Exorcism. I'm telling you this since i saw on Dorrkins Recount meter that you pulled 313 dps, i pulled that as lvl 62 on a rogue, Just a few tips :)

Do not caster when u see roar being cast its silences for 6-8 seconds

December 26, 2008 | Unregistered Commenterform

@Random_Tangent

Well, I don't know if that's the main reason they wiped, but you are correct that they're using an enhancement-speced shaman for their healer. (And let me tell you that even with good healing gear, it can still be difficult for an enhance shammy to be doing heals. Trust me, I've been there.)

December 26, 2008 | Unregistered CommenterAlayea

did it say "boss strat"?

December 28, 2008 | Unregistered CommenterGRiM

At 1:46 or so, right after the instant pyroblast from hot streak, what was that shadow bolt that hit the target for 508 dmg?

December 29, 2008 | Unregistered CommenterTheArchmage

@ everyone who bitches about what they show

pay the fuck attention, seriously ... they are doing WHAT THEY SET OUT TO DO IN THE FIRST PLACE ... they wanted to do every heroic and raid in BC but they ran out of time ... and i can only assume that every instance and raid for Wrath will be covered EVENTUALLY

plus, if you whiners havent noticed yet, THEY DIDNT HIT 80 yet ... only one so far was Juggy, and at time of filming this he probably wasnt 80 yet either

do some research about the show and the people that star in it before you complain about its content

December 29, 2008 | Unregistered CommenterKathrielonFrostmane

My guild is much further progressed , however I'm sure there's a lot of people that are extremely knew to the game and the expansion that get a lot of help from these videos.

I'm also sure that they will get around to Naxx at some point, but if your really after information now then you would be better of going to other sites that already have very informative breakdowns of all the encounters.

Yes an enhancement shaman can easily heal normal Utgard Keep with some decent 70 resto gear, the main issue with the fight was that Jeff didn't stand behind the boss and Lyle did not move out of Dark Smash which puts huge pressure on the healer who has to deal with an 8 sec silence.

Personally I enjoy the show because its entertaining and I look forward to every episode even the soloing. Keep up the good work!!

The Pillars work but the LoS they block is so narrow you have to get the dead center of it between you and Ingvar.

BTW pally should have Bubbled and HoP the healer there at the end. The boss would have died after that. Well if pally is as leet as some pallies i know.

January 2, 2009 | Unregistered CommenterZanaso

Bravo, healer away from boss room, ure good

February 3, 2009 | Unregistered CommenterErmik

Anyone know what UI addons the mage and the ret pally are using?

March 13, 2009 | Unregistered CommenterBalthasarr

Why is there no video of the boss actually being killed?
