Scythe In our last post, we mentioned that we had taken Mother Shahraz to a heartbreaking 2% wipe after only an hour of work and that we expected to have some news on her shortly.
We were right.
After a single warm-up pull tonight, we easily took her out. The hardest part of this fight comes before you ever face her and that’s in crafting the shadow resistance gear that you’ll need. We’d been getting ready for this fight for a long time and so while many guilds struggle to gear up to a point where she’s doable, we never broke stride and quickly hurdled her on our way to visit Illidan himself. I think we spent a total of an hour and a half in learning her.
On a side note, I wanted to complement the entire guild for the widespread effort in gathering up sufficient shadow resist to make this fight easy. We pumped a lot of time and resources into getting ready for it and I think the results spoke for themselves. Here’s to only having one more speed bump before we fight Illidan himself!
