Episode 2.1: Slave Pens

Finally Project Lore takes on a Heroic - The Slave Pens in the Coilfang Reservoir. In this one, the guys are met by a surprise guest boss, The Frost Lord Ahune. Will they toast marshmallows on Ahune's scortched icicle body or will the Frost Lord deal them the icy hand of wipe? Who knows? You will. Watch this.

This video is 10 times better than hellfire ramparts.

Great to see teamwork and a good fight. Of course, since you only posted part 1, I am left in suspense.

Epic......this show is awesome. Only a really classy show would actually give us the wipes. Nothin like a good wipe to start the day.

Really excited about the second episode, way to go!

What's up guys, love the show loved, Hellfire Ramparts, nice to see you're doing some heroic stuff despite the fact you got raped. I have faith you'll get him the next time.

Epic.. Really good! I love it! Really do!
Can I ask why you have something wrapped around your cans? So we cant see that you're drinking beer?!

Love,
Louise aKa Zeiania!

I'm glad they tried Ahune, but they probably didnt realize how crazy this fight is. We wiped a few times on regular before we had him down, and there is no way a T4 geared group could down him on heroic ( at least not my group ).

The key was downing the elemental as soon as possible, then conserving mana while AoE nuking the adds, as they have very low health.

My only gripe is that on the trash pulls, I wish you'd tell us what fears rather than saying "Some trash fears", its the warrior naga by the way, because being feared into other groups is the only thing that makes this instance difficult.

this show should be included as revision3 shows, huh? :)

Good job. Heroic Ahune was a straight pain in the rear end. You guys seem to know what you're doing with him now. Can't wait for the next episode!

Watching you guys enjoy some beers while playing WoW is beginning to rekindle my love for the game.

I think I may start playing again very soon.

Thank you

Iv downed Ahune on Heroic, Prot Paladin in T4 / badge gear.
my team actually only got me in for the boss, after 3 wipes with a warrior tank, opted for the more aoe mob controlling paladin.
made it easier on the healer, as everyone stacks behind the paladin and so all the mobs run into consecration, focus fire on him, giving one targetfor the healer to just spam on one target.

it was a bitch of a fight and it sees the healer working overtime.

Im really keen to see if the team handles it or they wuss out!

It was a real surprise to have such a tough boss in what is usually just a no-nonsense farm clear. i hope blizzard make more of these seasonal bosses :D

So why release these on separate days. Why wait a week to release a whole instance if you have it pre-recorded. Since this video was recorded between June 21 - July 5.

July 21, 2008 | Unregistered CommenterDauthi

I think that releasing the videos on separate days will help with their post production pains, but I really cant speak for them on that.

July 21, 2008 | Unregistered CommenterJafa

I'm not a WoW gamer, but OMG these videos are fuN!!! I don't even have to play... is fun just to watch you guys play and argue with eachother.

July 21, 2008 | Unregistered CommenterChris

Can you guys PLEASE release a feed of the videos like revision3 shows? I use Juice and not iTunes to grab podcasts.

July 21, 2008 | Unregistered CommenterMacFlecknoe

Hey, this feed http://projectlore.blip.tv/rss/itunes should work for non itunes :)

Coilfang rays do a horror, which tremor totem should deal with anyway. It can't be cleansed like fear can, but it does have a cast time, so can be interrupted (ks / kick etc). If a champion does intimidating shout, once again, tremor totem will take care of it - and with a disepeller, the fears from those guys can be dispelled (a good priest / paladin in the party will dispel in less than a second). But good call taking stuff back into the hallway. A rule of thumb in any given heroic while clearing trash is to pull stuff back whenever possible for easier cc and less chance of getting adds ;)

Tip: for mobs that do have a cast time on a nasty spell, if you set that mob as your focus and use focus interrupts, fights can go a lot smoother, as you don't have to switch targets (eg. earth shock or kick the focus target if it casts a heal or a fear). If you have your focus target showing on the screen, it is very easy to see when it is casting that spell you want to interrupt. Focus macros are imperative in Arena, but I have been using them for PvE play on most, if not all of my toons since Burning Crusade was released.

Love the movies so far, guys. It's getting close to expansion release. I hope you will churn out some high end heroic ones before we launch into new content XD

Hey guys, love the show.

Definitely a big fan of yours Alex, but it'd be nice to hear a little more from the other guys once and a while; just a thought.

July 21, 2008 | Unregistered CommenterDiggnationFan1

I am scared to even watch a show with a Hot Topic, brand-new, unwashed, post-death 'Ramones' shirt as the thumbnail. What is this? Current.com (Current TV)?

July 21, 2008 | Unregistered Commenterzebtron

"So...that was epic"
ROFL Great job keep it up. Don't listen to people bitching about the show cuz it's awesome.

July 21, 2008 | Unregistered Commentergastlyc

hahaha WTB AoE eh?

July 22, 2008 | Unregistered CommenterToasterstrudull

First off, love the show. Very entertaining, and I'm glad something like this came out. Keep up the good work.

Very classy on showing the wipe, I got to admit. Ahune is a bitch to fight, went down as fast as my group when we tried him first time. Kind of like getting punched in the face, you never know what's coming, and when it does....you're basically disoriented or out. Ok, bad comparison on my side.....

Keep it up and can't wait to see the boss kill.

July 22, 2008 | Unregistered CommenterSynapz

i like your videos of ramparts and slave pens but the video freezes in some places but the sound still works , im not sure if its to do with my comp or on your side

July 22, 2008 | Unregistered Commentercallum

Hi, like the site and the vidos BUT :D I'd like to see some hardcore stuff meaning longer videos like uncut raids, the pain, the love and everything else. I know you must be on some kind of a timelimit and that these videos might be long but I would watch them!

k, great stuff hope to see more. Alex rocks, other dudes are new but like em too..

July 22, 2008 | Unregistered Commenterhenri

Haha, this show is fun to watch. They tell it like it is. Even tho they seem to lack some experience in some of the content, they entertain us all the way through...

At the start when the hunter got raped, i would have /kicked replaced him quick style if he pulled that kind of shinanigans in my group...

but all in all, keep showing us the stuff that makes WoW fun, which is grouping together with friends and having a good time.

Peace.
