Zul'Aman

Expierences? Thoughts? Has anyone here downed it? I just want to now how this raid is. Discuss!|||Not tuned very well for its intended audience.

We are all 50% T6 and still think its quite challenging, its really really dependant on a well geared tank, weve taken along some kara equipped offspec tanks and they get one shotted quite a lot by some of the bosses.|||We're a Kara/heroic geared guild on the whole and have downed the four avatars. The only one that is giving us any real grief is Jan'alai, but that's more down to coordination of the fight than anything else.

We've heard from more progressed guilds on our server that there is a signficant jump in difficulty to the last 2 bosses. Going for our first try beyond the 4 avatars tonight.|||Just for another data point:

Guild in a mixture of kara and T5-level gear.

Bear and Eagle down on the first night.

Lynx on the second.

A week and a half later, we're still trying the dragonhawk......|||My guild got to the last boss first day, but the 9k shadow damage on the raid has been a headache. I guess we'll make some high end shadow resist gear, and go back to wreak horrible vengeance.|||My guild is fully T5 geared and we've pretty much laughed our way through ZA. All we have left is Zul'jin and probably will have him down this next reset. Thanksgiving screwed up our raid schedule pretty bad. We also only do ZA on off nights.

Oh and to moopy, we did that fight with most people having 0 shadow resist unbuffed. It's a dps race is all. Kill 2 adds Shackle the undead sheep the humanoid and kill the boss. A CoH priest can keep the group up pretty well. We didn't have one with us so it was a PoM on one group & a priest spamming PoH with concentration aura.|||we have BC cleared, only do the T6 instances and zul the rest of the week.

we cleared it between 14 and 18 PM when the servers got up again after patching.

No real problems detected.|||We down the first three avatars in short order, through the lynx boss (he's getting nerfed btw).

The dragon hawk boss is giving us trouble, we had him down to 60% on our last attempt. Just need to dodge the bombs a little better and kill the hawks more efficiently.

I'm the only one with any tier 5 (shoulders) the rest of the raid group is geared from kara/gruul/heroic badges so I think we are right in line for whom the instance was designed for.

It does seem odd that such a tough boss comes after a fairly easy 3rd boss.

It reminds me of the shade in kara, the curator was very easy for us but it took us a week or two to get the shade down the first couple of times.

Gear check? I think its a coordination check, lot of stuff going on in that dragon boss fight.|||Quote:

Actually, from what I saw in 2 years playing, it's probably right where they want it to be. As the hardcore T6-5-4 will try it, and in a few weeks, they'll nerf it to the extreme so that 1/2 Kara gear people can do it.

If it's too hard, just wait a few weeks/months for the nerf bat, then it should be fine ;)

That's what happens with every instances... They can't make it too easy for the hardcore geared players, cause they'll have to get another instance out soon if people already get bored with it...
