Banged out the 3rd part last night, as I had a flex group on Tuesday and a regular 10 man on Wednesday night. I must say that I enjoyed this one (Underhold) more than the 1st two. The first raid is getting pretty straightforward as more people know it. I ran it on Tuesday before my flex and only wiped once on the third boss, while one shotting everything else. The second raid is still a f-ing nightmare on LFR, in particular the third boss. This 3rd raid is actually fun, imo and is only 3 bosses. Bliz decided to give us a break on the first boss with pretty simple mechanics and my group one shotted him. The 3rd boss is also pretty straightforward in regards to actual mechanics...Big 'ol T-Rex Dinosaur to kill, with it's jailers as the adds in alternating phases that you have to kill and take thier keys.... It's the 2nd "boss" that is probably the most interesting and different raid "boss" I've come across in a raid it quite a while. Seems Garrosh has literally boxed up a bunch of bosses and the raid has to clear them as two seperate groups the entire raid. If one group dies the other does as well. It really is too much to try to talk about here and you need to check it out before going in. It kinda really is cool. This will be the bane of the LFR, esp going forward with the lack of communication / coordination that is rampant in LFR's. With great tanks and communication we still only got it on the 5th attempt. As "reset Tuesdays" (in the US) seem to bring out better players on Tuesday and continually declining until the following nightmare Monday night, so far I would continue the trend of running these new raids in reverse order when they reset, although I might consider still doing #2 first, then #3 and #1 can be done anytime after. My only disappointment last night was in my gear. I got a LFR grade wrist off the second boss, and only gold from the other 2. The problem I have is that I had gotten the same named wrist as a world drop off the very first trash in the very first instance on 10 man regular, coming down the ramp. (So 540-somthing gear). I guess that world drop was rare as they put it's LFR 528 same named version as a drop off the 10th boss in the series. grrrr. Ah well...Off to relax on 3-day weekend away from computers and hectic life. So thank you, Christopher Columbus, for misjudging the size of the world, where you landed, and for thinking you were in India - all just to give me a day off. :)
