@ The Darkness
Whats the point of making a comment to my comment? If its realy bugging you why I said "you suck" then you need to go outside once in a while and talk to real people not just people in project lore boards.
@Branderen
First of all branderen I said "you suck" not "U suk". And yes I watched the video, who said i did not? You need a physciatrist if that realy bugged you. "and a good english teacher, learn how to spell you have damn spell check on your computer"

These guys are payed to make videos and play the game, yet they wipe on first boss, I found that funny, but yes it shows that they suck.

Why is it that the WoW community always creates a catch 22 with the fanbase/websites? Watch the video, and enjoy what you get. We pay to play WoW, and we watch their videos for FREE. Get what you can, and don't qq about it. Leave that for your guild forums.

For some reason my computer isn't showing the window for the video at all. But from the general comments, it sounds like Lyle died and they all wiped. Who's ever to expect to get the mount on their first try? Everyone has to have done it atleast once.

Now for the fact that people aren't doing what their supposed to. Jeff probably could've used LoH on Lyle when he got low, but that's not really his job to watch for that. For the fact that Jeff, Alex, and Zand are compairing and worrying about DPS, THAT'S ALL THEY HAVE! Tanks and Healers worry about a variety of stats, and alot of different type of gear. When they PvE they worry about what's going around them. Just about all DPS just worry on SP/Agil/AP. Other than that, it's just icing on the cake. When we PvE, all we do is usually /assist on the Tank. We have nothing else to do! So of course some of use are going to compair.

Meh,... that started turning into a rant.

But seriously, Just shut the fuck up and enjoy what you get free in life.

It's sad the only good player is the voice box...
I agree w/ skyler. I've never seen or even heard of anyone wiping on meathook...

U'all should really find a new tank, its obvious he doesn't care anymore. And seriously, 2 hunters.... WTF is the point of that?! My guild had 3/4 hunters in every BT raid and now we bring 0 hunters to Wraith. Bring some diversity to the party, try new stuff.

This site was great in BC. Now it seems like they just dont care, but will take any perks. It used to be about the "lore" and the game. Now they think its about their personality. Honestly Alex is just annoying, Tank obviously doesn't care, Dorkins is ok and Jeff is actually funny but its gone WAY downhill since goggins left.

PLEASE make it about the game again. Cause if you don't you will lose all your fans older then 13 and anyone w/ some decent exp.

There are some children out there that just don't get it about PL. These guys are not professional WoW players, they are a group of regular guys who play WoW for our entertainment. They are entertainers who play WoW. There would be nothing more boring than perfect runs every time by a group of children who can only say, "you suck" when something goes wrong. They are obviously disappointed by the wipe, but there is no finger pointing by any of them. The team wins or loses as a team. A mature attitude you will never have to worry about.

Quote by Will "helpful comment would be to attack the same side of the boss and be arranged in a order for the healer to be able to easily heal but you guys are the experts"

Lol this is what I'm saying. He obviously doesn't know that attacking from behind prevents melee from getting parry/block. There is a lot of young or inexperienced players who watch. And, for whatever reason, they think "you guys are the experts". When in actuality if they think that is how experts play then they are going to learn how to be bad players.
In BC I would tell people to watch PL to learn how to run heroics instances w/ good strats/tips and proper play. Now it seems you've lost any interest in trying to teach/show lore and tips. U'all aren't charming enough to keep a site up just on personality. GoodLuck though.

@Tess

If that's true then that is fine. But go back and look at Sethekk Halls or Mechanar. They were telling lore, while informing use of different strats while making it entertaining. Full runs in 3/4 episodes. I think people enjoyed all of that. Now they don't prepare, just run and record. If they want to change how they do things then fine, that's their prerogative. But they will lose a lot of their old fans.

April 9, 2009 | Unregistered CommenterOk, but

bye

Get rid of in-video ads please!

All I have to say is i have wiped on the timed run before and still gotten the drake. It can be done don't count it out just yet. Just balls to the wall the rest of the instance.

April 9, 2009 | Unregistered CommenterCowsgoemoo

That was very interesting, Every time I ran CoS heroics (6 or more times now) it was timed and every time we didn't wipe and made it in time for the mount. I got the mount my first time btw YAY!! This instance is extremely easy and a little bit difficult to wipe on (depending on the dps). I was floored that you wiped on the first boss. That was very shocking.

Zaxxon....

Common misconception of troll posters here;
These are just dudes gettin' together to run parties, in fact, I'd say they're casual players. They invest plenty of time in the game, to be sure, but most players do - however, they have never been 'hardcore' or even 'pro' and thats what makes the show so charming. They're having fun rather than working, and demonstrating the spirit in which WoW should be played.

Lyle needs a lot of work as a tank in general, as he still seems stuck in a BC style of warrior tanking. Nail the necromancer with Heroic Throw and THEN charge in! Meathook hits like a truck, blow those cooldowns as soon as it says he's in frenzy the first time!

(I can't help but comment what I see in the episodes, despite knowing they were filmed ages ago, and that in theory they're better players now)

i know u guys wiped, but good episode. that was always hard for me.

@skylar-dude you ever heard "if u dont have anything nice to say, dont say anything at all"? its from the kids movie bambi-u shud watch it

April 10, 2009 | Unregistered CommenterBazookabubblegum

There is a lot to be said for running an instance with freinds. I have two friends I run around with regularly and the three of us have run things together and succeeded in instances where better geared 5 man teams should have struggled. So don't knock the advantage of knowing those you run with.

With that being said Iran this my first time as the healer (holy paladin). I died on the first boss. Luckily the rest of the party lived and they were able to rez me and we continured. I remember running around like crazy. I didn't have time to stop and drink I had to depend on Divne Plea and natural mana regen. Numerous times I BARELY got a Holy Shock off in time to save the tank as I ran into range from trying to loot the last group of mobs. The point of this is that we got to the drake boss and killed him with 5 seconds left on the clock. I was the only one in the group that didn't have the drake so it was my prize. After it was all said and done the tank complimented me on my mana use and said she'd nvr seen a first time healer make it through that well. Anyway... Sorry for the long story but I felt it kinda related.

Am I the only one unable to watch this video? I click on it to start the buffering, but then it kind of freezes for a moment before showing a box with the "more" and "again" buttons...

@Vyllanas

Then how do you propose that the website supports itself, hmm?

April 11, 2009 | Unregistered CommenterAlayea

@ Kreion
O, wow! Yea that's true, i forgot. You're right mate. I keep watching this as an entertainment show and forgetting this is actual instance raiding they are doing :P .

Thanx
