This was back when taunts were melee-range only and mobs instantly dropped aggro on an incapacitated tank. No matter how smoothly things went elsewhere, I almost always lost my healer or a clothy at one point thanks to the Nexus Stalkers and their Gouge ability.

Heroic Mana-Tombs Personal anecdote: I first learned how to tank in Burning Crusade heroics, and heroic Mana-Tombs terrified me almost as much as the next two on this list. You can't ask 40 people to do 4-5 hours' worth of trash to reach the one boss they actually need and call it fun. While most players disagreed with their cheating, Overrated wasn't without sympathy, particularly from other AQ40 raiders who may not have approved of their choice, but agreed with the impulse behind it.Īs RivanLord noted in the comments, the underlying problem was the rapidly-aging design sense behind the older raids. Raiders from the guild Overrated (Black Dragonflight-H) were permanently banned over an exploit that allowed them to skip trash and go straight to C'thun. Temple of Ahn'Qiraj (AQ40) The Twin Emps to C'thun trash has reached legendary status in the WoW community, and not without reason: It inadvertently caused one of the first high-profile events in the game. Thoughts? You almost have to respect something that still manages to be annoying almost 8 years later. The Blackwing Lair 'Suppression Room' Hey, raid leader: Our mages are dead, the rogues are missing, and the whelps respawn in 30 seconds. The first time I saw the raid during BC, I turned to one of my guildies (an experienced classic raider) and said in amazement, 'You guys seriously had to kill all of these mobs?'

What was the thing about the core hounds? They all had to die within a few seconds of each other or the entire pack respawned? Molten Core I wasn't around for vanilla WoW, but I have yet to meet a classic player who has anything nice to say about the core hounds, lava packs, or the sheer depressing number of them. Notice how close he/she gets to death on multiple occasions despite the level advantage.

To make matters worse, the most usual method of dealing with Gnomer trash - namely, avoiding as much of it as possible by dropping into the central well from the platforms - usually brought a killer wave of mobs down on you from players or pets who'd accidentally aggro'd a single mob while jumping.įor a bit of fun, the movie above is a Moviewatch entry from June 2007 showing a paladin at 60 killing most of Gnomeregan's trash in one pull. Huge trash pulls contained the Mobile Alert Systems (better known as the alarm bots that shrieked and called every mob in sight), land mines, and Arcane Nullifers, the bane and oft-outright killer of caster DPS. Gnomeregan This might be hard to remember because Gnomeregan isn't very difficult these days, but 'Gnomer' was once one of the most despised 5-mans.
