    Damn that last percent, damn it to hell!

  2. Tuna on March 16th, 2008 10:37 pm

    Ouch…

    Those 1% wipes are so painful. It’s like those mobs know how painful it is, and let you get down to 1% before they’re like, “OK, time to randomly hit the tank really hard. They won’t see that one coming.”

    But getting him down to 1% means that you KNOW that Tidewalker is going down soon.

  3. Nick S. on March 16th, 2008 11:27 pm

    fingers crossed for you, BRK. we just got the bear boss in ZA down to 3%… he’s gonna get his.

  4. Wamogri on March 16th, 2008 11:33 pm

    Aww, thats no good! I know how you feel. :( Best of luck for your next attempt.

  5. Moi on March 16th, 2008 11:47 pm

    I know it isn’t quite the same.. buuut we just got prince down to 7% so us in Deep Thirteen feel your pain :D

    Next week he is soooo going down!

  6. Annie on March 17th, 2008 12:09 am

    Got dragon boss in ZA down to 32% (After 8 wipes) I wanted to cry myself asleep after the Raid Leader called it. : / I feel your pain, BRK.

  7. Maevet on March 17th, 2008 12:34 am

    Yeah I think my most painfull one was my 1st time in Gruul, got the sod to 1% then he bugged and stopped taking damage.

    Netherspite has also done a few of those down to 3% or less then the people rotating in green magicly gets nuke

  8. Agador on March 17th, 2008 12:58 am

    Oh ow. 1% though…you’ll likely get it next time around. Good luck!

  9. Evil Sheep on March 17th, 2008 1:40 am

    Ouch.

  10. Anais on March 17th, 2008 5:35 am

    Gotta love those 1% wipes :) Makes the actual kill so much more fun when you do get them down.

    The only thing better are the “almost 1% wipes” – kills done by the last few standing healers and a lucky devastate crit :D

  11. PMEL on March 17th, 2008 6:33 am

    BRK I am so sorry for your loss. I love your interface by the way maybe I missed where you made a run down of all the add-ons you use if so could you please link it to me thanks.

  12. Karthis on March 17th, 2008 6:53 am

    Dohhhhhhh….. so close, BRK. This just means he’s yours the next night you work on him though.

    We’ve had some spectacular low percentage progression wipes before, and never gone more than two more raids without downing the target. You’ve got him =)

  13. Róhirrim on March 17th, 2008 7:08 am

    @PMEL:
    BRK is listing his addons right here —> *list on right side of column*

    Good job on almost getting him down, next time you’ll get him! /cheer

  14. Sonvar on March 17th, 2008 8:18 am

    1% wipes are the worst. You’ll get him down next time.

  15. Guy on March 17th, 2008 8:27 am

    IMO, you needed a SV hunter there to tank the last 1% for you.

  16. Ahoni on March 17th, 2008 8:35 am

    Our first time downing Tidewalker, about 3 weeks ago, took 14 attempts. Most of those were aborted attempts when the pally OT and 3 healers get graved at the same time, or the one memorable attempt when 4 healers got graved at the same time, or 3/4 of your AoE. Such random nastiness with those watery graves. Pally tank FTW! This week we one shot tidewalker. Having 4 warlocks along made the fight pretty easy.

  17. PMEL on March 17th, 2008 8:36 am

    This is why I get bit by snakes I do not see the obvious. Thanks for not being to mean about it. Just a little bragging got my epic flying mount last night WOOT. And sorry again BRK. Thanks BRK for making me not a lvl 70 Huntard.

    It sucks, my first time on lootreaver we wiped a couple of times, then wiped at 1%, but it was late and we didnt retry:( damn rogues dying in the start of the fight..

    it was awesome when our main tanks takes the last percents on zul’jin alone and kills him last man standing:D

  19. pelides on March 17th, 2008 10:37 am

    You guys know the fight now. There is some randomness to that fight that just simply sucks. No way around it, like your prot pally or “round ‘em up” warriors getting tombed when the murlocs start coming or too many healers getting tombed at once.

    Next time you’ll get him. Now you know and knowing is half the battle.

  20. Anonymous on March 17th, 2008 11:53 am

    we finally got vashj down after a few 20% attempts, some more 9% attempts a 2 3% attempts

  21. Master on March 17th, 2008 12:14 pm

    Well, maybe you brought the wrong crowd. How about 25 hunters!..

    Thats 50 people doing DPS.

    We did that once and the mob was dead in no time…

  22. Agathar on March 17th, 2008 12:18 pm

    My favourite 1% wipe wasn’t a wipe.
    The bear boss in ZA, our MT went down at 10%, followed by the OT at 5%, then at 1% the mage who the bear boss was after blinked down the stairs, resetting it. So it wasn’t a wipe there were 8 guys still standing, but…

  23. Baetylus on March 17th, 2008 12:38 pm

    @master
    25 hunters and you don’t have a link to a movie of that?
    That’s one worth filming!

    Why does that put in my mind a BRK event idea? A sort of creeping doom as hundreds of hunters cover the landscape like a plague of locusts!

  24. Doogie2K on March 17th, 2008 2:30 pm

    The only thing better are the “almost 1% wipes” – kills done by the last few standing healers and a lucky devastate crit :D

    Our first Gruul one-shot was like that. One Hunter (not me, I was on my Warrior, ergo six feet under by that point) and four healers left, and the killing blow came from a tick of Insect Swarm from a recently-deceased boomkin.

    Good times, indeed.

  25. Messyah on March 17th, 2008 2:40 pm

    Damn that sucks! That happend to us on Karathress. It’s kinda funny to think that 1% of his health is over 50,000. LOL

    Did you have pally tanks for the Murlocs? We always have 2 for this fight as it makes Murloc management oh so much better.

    You’ll get him next time… and he has some phat lewtz!

    What UI is that? Titan Panel?

  26. Arsley on March 17th, 2008 4:49 pm

    Btw, what’s the deal with the dead wolf in the picture? Is it an add or did somebody bring a wolf to a raid?

    Another thing: I can see BRK didnt blow his BW with Bloodlust Brooch, why’s that?

  27. Aboo on March 17th, 2008 5:20 pm

    You got off easy BRK! The crit that killed you was only for 2k.

    That poor fugly at the bottom of your combat list there got hit by one that was almost 18k…. Ouch!

    See, it’s things like those you have to look at to find the bright side of every situation! :P

  28. Felandra on March 17th, 2008 5:26 pm

    Damn BRK… You can’t quit at 1%, you gotta do another attempt! People are pissed when this happens, they are out for blood, the bloodfury is up.

    In a twist of fates, I was on my first real SSC raid last night (had been brought in to fill a spot on Lurker once before). Got Lurker easily, then the trip went to Morogrim. Guild had never downed the bastard! 5 wipes… Last one on 1%, actually I calculated it to around 0.3%, Mobinfo2 had him at 15k HP… 15000 HP?!?!?! That would be something like a few seconds of DPS even for a weakened raid.

    The entire raid went nuts! Not a single person logged, eventhough we were over the time we had set off to do this. We went back and crushed the evil SOB, with only three deaths. And Yours Truly busting the DPS at 1.4k DPS, topping the charts by a wide margin. We were that focused because of the 1% wipe. Those wipes are like Rage for a Warrior.

  29. spithoof on March 17th, 2008 5:37 pm

    Just killed that fat ass guy with our guild… and we were so damn close to repeat your 1% experience with only 1 hunter (me) and 1 rogue left we did that damn 1% and murlocs killed us in a seconds right after that… i bet you’ll down him next time.. he’s a kid.

  30. Ngita on March 17th, 2008 7:37 pm

    Just went through this on bloodboil. Started the day at 35% and last 5 goes went 5%,10%,2%, trash reclear, 1%, Dead.

  31. Dancingion on March 17th, 2008 11:33 pm

    Gah, I know exactly how you feel, BRK, we consistently wipe on leo at 1% (about 8 nights on him so far), and only killed him twice.

    On the other hand, we one shot Loot Reaver every monday :)

  32. Lienna on March 18th, 2008 3:58 am

    Okay so maybe 1% wipes suck, but its a wipe shot… with murlocs!

    Ah takes you back to your lowbie days doesn’t it, a cry of Wharglargle then between 2 and 10 murlocs ambush you!

  33. bbr on March 18th, 2008 5:17 am

    You need 1% more DPS :)

  34. PMEL on March 18th, 2008 8:37 am

    It is me again BRK. I tried cyCircled and love it with only one problem, when I pull my pet Sammy out her action bar is hovering on the chat window how do I move it? Thanks

  35. James on March 19th, 2008 3:53 pm

    Ohhh, I know it all too well. Well behind you in progress, but we had a 3% shade of Aran moment on Tuesday. So annoying! >_<

    But the reason I commented: What sexy UI mods do you have? The raid member bars look *so* much… Crisper than XPerl!

  36. Emptymindedgirl on April 8th, 2008 3:59 pm

    Tidewalker is so much fun and exciting :D
    Congratulations on the near win. Means next time, he’s falling. Hard!
