As someone who didn't really start playing till the end of BFA, it's great to see videos like yours that go through the history of the game that I never got to see first hand. Keep up the great work!

The funniest part imo of the N'Zoth bugs is when the encounter bugged so hard, Blizz had to hard despawn N'Zoth to stop an accidental bugged kill, and in the process despawned N'Zoth across all of NA. Still remember seeing that happen and the hilarity of it all.

The whole "21st man" was something I assumed all the high end guilds did forever, I cannot believe they never did that until BFA. It's a great strategy for pretty much any tactical situation. In the military its referred to as overwatch.

To be fair, BfA was ok until 8.3. I don’t miss how much grinding there was. However, at least old wow heroes story lines were good. 8.3 is a failure to bring WoW closer to a lesser diablo imitation and made short work of N’ zoth.

raiders come and go all the time and their streamers and leaders basically become the guilds faces.

G'huun was the worst fight I ever progressed on.

Kinda ironic Ion Kazzabasket said it was "mathematically impossible", as it's something a certain someone has stated before and it was proven wrong :P Great video though! For some insane reason, I actually watched all of the RWF in BfA, even though I hadn't played myself since the opening of that Helya raid in Legion. Was a fun and intense race. And a good thing about people streaming it and guilds being both NA and EU, was the fact that no matter HOW fucked up your sleep schedule was, you always had something to put on the screen to either watch or watch until you fall asleep.

Lets not forget that you absolutely NEEDED the legendary cloak to even fight N'Zoth. Even in LFR you needed the cloak because its was essential for one of his mechanics. I hardcored BFA. Was in a Method sister guild and honestly BFA was some of the most fun ive ever had playing WoW. The corruption power and azerite traits made the game so much more fun for me. You actually had some customization to how your class played.

Bro, anyone who started playing @ the beginning of bfa in the last expansion raid [9.3 ?¿?] ( after a long hiatus @ least... i mean, i returned from cata to 9.3) It was *ABSOLUTELY AMAZING* & I loved the game so, SO MUCH when i started playing ! ● Heart of Azeroth ● Azerite Armor ● Corruption's ● Visions of N'Zoth ● Horrific Visions ● Assaults. ■ Heck, even the occasional island run was a great enjoyment in moderation! For a player returning to play from eows prehistoric era [ Cataclysm ] It was almost an entirely new game, while still being *DISTINCTLY - WOW !¡!* I had so much fun discovering mythic plus and mythic raids too !¡!

It'll always be remembered as the raid where Liquid choked at the very end tho (or well honestly they've done it multiple times since but) I remember our guild selling a ton of Glacial Tidestorms to fund our exploits in Nya'lotha lol.

BFA was a missed xpac for me. Got kind of burnt out In legion bc I was in a guild pushing mythic on every raid tier and by time BFA came out and I hit max lvl and started raiding I was just done. Came back in the start of shadowlands and felt like the game was truly over. Decided to try dragon flight but by then I didn’t have a guild or and friends anymore so it was just LFR or pugs and that didn’t give me any want to raid hardcore again. Hoping the war within turns around and has great raids and not a shitty gearing system like in BFA bc I hated the necklace shit and missed my badass weapons. But it’s nice seeing how dedicated players still are to beating some of the hardest raids blizz has given us. AND GO NA!

4:10 no. Zul was also overtuned, UNLESS you did a complete cheese strat with 5-6 subtlety rogues, funneling all the damage into the boss from adds. You would bring crawgs and other adds near Zul, let all of the rogues get 5 combo points in 1 GCD with shuriken storm and then Eviscerate the boss over and over again until he was dead. This was the time, when SS would also buff Evi's ST damage, which made it possible (and Blizzard did blizzard things, promptly removed this buff and pretty much killled Sub rogues until the end of the xpac). Only after a handful of nerfs, the fight became somewhat OKayish during farm period if your guild didn't have at least 3 sub rogues.

Another good video. With that out of the way, and with all due respect to those of a different opinion, I believe this idea of designing raids well one players’ mistake can wipe an entire encounter isn’t a good mechanic and it really needs to just be taken out of the game. Mistakes are going to happen and this level of punishment is extreme and does not respect the players time.

"Raiding is viewed as the pinnacle of the game's existence" - said no one ever. Easy ass paint by numbers content. Like seriously easy during world first, you just have to have no life to figure it out faster than other no lifers. After world first it is simply "when boss does this someone does this" and hit the dps and healing checks by "when boss does this, pop your cool downs" , super easy mode stuff.
