Sire Denathrius is one of the best Bosses ever. The Visuals, the Atmosphere, the Voicelines and the unique Mechanics just make for the perfect mix.
Ive been mythic raiding since nighthold, and sire denathrius is by far my favorite fight ever. It was the perfect first phase where you kinda just got it eventually, but it took a lot of coordination and planning still. P2 was amazing the 4 different adds that require different ways to kill each utilizing the mirrors and other mechanics. P3 the dance with huge healing checks, each phase of the boss having to do opposite mechanics. Once you got it it made sense but it took such great coordination and personal responsibility. Amazing boss, 10/10.
"Crawl to me on your knees"
Yes daddy *puppy eyes*
Mythic sire was my favorite fight of the expansion, only other boss that got close is a tie between rygelon and halondrus.
Didnt feel a little too long for you?
@@szejtanik helll nah, you couldnt ever have lust in p1 (not that you want it), was like an 8 minute kill which is perfect last boss
Haven't seen the vid yet, but a top 10 boss fights for every expansion is a pretty neat idea for a series.
Council of Blood was such a fun fight to me just because of the silliness of it. I really enjoyed it. I'm suprised it didnt make the cut...
BOOGIE DOWN
Have you done it on mythic ?
Shadowlands was a rollercoaster in terms of difficulty.
1. Castle Nathria was by far the hardest early raid they've ever implemented and it was a good tier overall. Sire Denathrius was an epic fight, especially on Mythic when you had to run through like 40 lines across the screen at once at the end. The Council of Blood was pretty fun, especially when everyone had to dance. In terms of class balance: CN was at its worst because the meta comp stacking heavily favored certain specs over others.
2. Sanctum of Domination was very inconsistent on difficulty. There were a lot of bosses that were sub-20 pulls then you got to Painsmith and Sylvanas and they took 100s of pulls on Mythic. Sylvanas was the worst because she took 15 minutes and I absolutely hated Painsmith because one mistake and you die. Fatescribe was annoying because if one person made a mistake the whole raid would explode. I thought Soulrender and the Remnant of Ner'zhul were pretty cool.
3. Sepulcher of the First Ones was very overtuned, but had some cool fights. Anduin, Rygelon, and the Crab were fun. The Jailer was one of the lamest end game bosses. You literally just moved around in a room jumping in holes and breaking pillars.
Sepulcher wasn't that overtuned to be honest. It's just it was designed with double legendaries in mind, and we didn't have acces to them until like 2 or 3 weeks down the patch. Afterwards it was more reasonable.
@@tomeekun that's the definition of overtuned
@@thebigandlazyguy246 I personally disagree. Overtuned would be if it was just released as is without double legendaries ever included. To me there's a difference between a timed progression of power level (one that was very noticeable) and just straight up not being a match up for the encounters.
@@tomeekun it had like 30nerfs
totally agree with council of blood. that is my favourite figth in a lot of time
I only did Halondrus in LFR since I basically skipped the last patch of Shadowlands, but my god it was a cool fight. I loved the sounds and all the effects this fight had. I could feel this heavy machine moving and shaking the world around me. Very well designed boss.
Heroic was pretty intense, but not in a bad way.
I saw Halondrus in the Thumbnail and checked to make sure that he had his #1 spot, as deserved. So glad you gave Raznal a top spot as well. Both were easily my top two.
Really? I found him really boring. Denathrius shoulda be top imo, got a little disappointed in this list.
Denathrius is easy top 3 for me this xpac. Halondrous is number 1 for me by a mile, 2nd is either Sire or Maybe Anduin for me.
@@Ash-V-Leal You found Mythic Halondrus boring??
@@Ash-V-Leal I will agree that Mythic Halondrus post-nerfs was pretty bad. They really gutted him to rush the tier. Pre-nerf where bomb timers was 6 secs is probably the best fight, many more clutch plays if one of the players made a mistake- and hard to recover from. When they nerfed it to be 30sec bombs it wasnt punishing at all- could literally pick up the bomb a total of 5 times in a fight lol
I remember when my Raid finally beat Anduin on Heroic with like a 15 man party. We were so hyped and exhausted and it took us a good month to do lol
Maybe unpopular opinion but I really liked the court boss fight in Nathria especially on hc. It was a good step up in difficulty and I absolutely loved the idea of altering the fight and mechanics depending on the order you kill the bosses. I also think that putting in all these dance related abilities was just hilarious.
Also I rky liked the jailer fight as a tank. Soaking those massive tank combo felt so satisfieing and i actually had a bit more agency then just " stand on X and taunt at 3 stacks" defenetly need more of those
Also the music for that fight slaps
No Court of Blood is my 2nd fav boss from that raid. I love playing DDR in wow
BOOGIE DOWN! SHIMMY RIGHT! BOOGIE DOWN! BOOGIE DOWN! BOOGIE DOWN! (confused melee screeming) BOOGIE DOWN! yea, amazing fight...ok it wasn't amazing, in fact it was shit, but the dance part was amazing
There is nothing difficult about council hc. Hell there is nothing difficult about any hc boss.
@@KalinPopov it's not about the difficulty it's about the fun.
My List - as a Mythic raiding tank:
10. Sun Kings Salvation
9. Prototype Pantheon
8. Ner'zhul.
7. Xy'mox 2
6. Council of Blood
5. Painsmith
4. Halondrus
3. Sludgefist
2. Anduin
1. Denathrius
Yeah I completely disagree with 9th place! That fight alone made me not want to do the whole raid ever again. Not only I have a major heigh fear, I also found Phase 1 insulting (boss won't go past X%HP and will keep just doing her scripted stuff until the timer says it's time to move on....)
I actually love the sylv fight. (Excluding stupid immunity dialogue) we should have been able to dps her for the entirety of P2 if she was in range tbh. I like the long bossfight and P3 sylv is on par with p3 sire for me personally.
I don't have strong feelings about P3. It's a fine phase. Mosty of my issues are P1 and P2
as a mythic raider eye of the jailer was an amazing fight, the moment when there is a fairly straight forward mechanic of killing 2 eyes at each side of the room at the same time within a time limit but there still being multiple ways of playing it was cool
I loved the Halondrus fight, the sound effects really set the scene and made it memorable to me
I think it was the first time a fight gave me total eargasm, those sound effects were so good.
Sylvanas being on the list is hilarious.
i loved using death's advance for artifcer xymox because i could just stand still
The only one I disagree with is Sylvanas
Her fight is so punishing when you’re learning for the first time, and the fact that the bridges have HOLES in them was the first middle finger they have to us. The second is the fact that the fight basically changes locations only. And the third, we get her to 50% health, and technically, we LOSE and sylvanas just passes out after something that should’ve been an epic lore moment.
2nd worst boss in my wow experience (worst is Kel’Thuzad from Sanctum). Sanctum of Domination is ruined because of those 2 alone
I wasn't a fan of Sanctum except for the Terragrue. It was so nice to finally kill that thing off after all the times I got stomped in Torghast.
I think there are a couple keys from some of these fights. One is Play-of-the-game moments where 1 player can save the entire raid from a wipe. Xy'mox was fun because if 2 DPS were running off with the portal, then as a SPriest I could just Lifegrip one into the right spot and fix the problem. And I could keep up DPS to boot. A couple fun fights like that. A second key is the "Click factor." When your raid is banging its head against the wall, then suddenly the mood of the entire raid shifts because ~something~ just clicked and everyone felt it. You may still be several wipes away from the kill, but these mechanics you've been fussing over for awhile suddenly fall into place and you're just in the cleanup and execute phase. That was Sire Denathrius for a lot of people.
I can't believe Council of Blood is not on this list. My absolute favourite
BOOGIE DOWN
Great video! ^^ Love your lists and all your work :)
i have to say i am so proud of my self for killing holondrus on mythic. And as a first time mythic raider and a tank at that. Had such a blast at that boss
This video really should be renamed “MY top ten boss fights from shadowlands” because there’s some REALLY hot takes in here. Sylvanas seemed universally hated as a boss fight. Lotta other fights that seemed loved more over others here as well
Just listening to 'TarraGRUE' and 'dark room' in the same segment made me realize that in 2022 Blizzard of all companies was still making a Zork reference in a AAA game.
Sire Denathrius not being number 1 is a troll
this list is very agreeable! nice job :)
Mythic Sludgefist is probably the best Patchwerk style fight in the game hands down. The mechanics were tough, but you could still plant and DPS and you needed too because somehow even later into the expansion most guilds first kill was after hitting the wall with all 4 pillars gone.
I did like Rhylegon, it just wasn't quite sludgefist level of good. And Terrorgrue was just fun each week with different powers and fucking with the raid with the annoying ones
Crab was fun on mythic just to be able to say "I did it" and we only killed it twice. And it was in a very nerfed state , not the last set but it had been hit with hefty nerfs to the bomb timings when we got there.
I agree with the choices, but not the order. Pain and anduin should be 1st and 2nd just becouse they mechanics doesnt felt unfair. Halondrus had a lot of unfair timers and those bombs were a nightmare before the nerf. Also halondrus had a big big huge difference between melee and range pov.
Council of Blood's macabre dance should have been on this list. Boogie down! I much preferred Soulrender Dormazain to Ner'zhul simply because of the way Garrosh was incorporated into the fight. Playing among us to find the imposter in Lords of Dread ranks higher than Sylvanas in my opinion.
I liked Halondrus because it was entertaining to see people blown off the edge or crushed by the walls because they fell behind.
I remember liking the Sludgefist fight so much that i perma looked for groups to try it. Even if the pugs always wiped it was always super fun
This is such a good video but can you please do a shadowlands review like you did with BFA ? That would be great!
xymox from nathria was DEFINITELY one of my favorites. heroic xymox was a nice challenge. it didn’t feel impossible, but was difficult. the best 🥰
nathria was my fave raid of shadowlands tbh
Where is my Council fight? Cmon man, it's atleast top 3 that can prance forward
I never played the last patch of Shadowlands because I was taking a break from the game but I did raid Nathria and Sanctum. Nathria has to be one of my favorite raids ever, I haven't been playing the game too long (joined at the beginning of BfA) but the only boss I can remember disliking from that raid is Inerva Darkvein because of the annoying orb mechanics. Maybe an unpopular opinion but N'Zoth was my favorite boss for a while and though Denathrius didn't take his spot, he got pretty close. The thing that makes Denathrius is his charisma, he's one of those villains you just love to hate and I'm excited for his return at some point in the future.
My favorite fight was the Anduin fight. I loved the aesthetic of the fight, and I loved the transition phase to fighting Arthas. I'm still pissed on how Arthas was treated at the end of the fight.
The only fight I enjoyed more from SL was Denathrius because he was such a fun opponent. The Anduin fight was good for the all the reasons Hiru gave as well just the whole theme.
The cutscene afterwards could die in a fire.
I loved the whole fight. Arthas was treated great at the end. Perfect send off to an old villain.
I'm still upset at myself that I quit Shadowlands RIGHT before beating Sire Denathrius. I played and progressed through Heroic Castle Nathria and then right around the time we were getting started on fighting Denathrius I just randomly got an overwhelming urge to not want to play the game anymore. I still would've quit, but I wish I just stuck around until Denathrius was beaten and THEN quit.
Sire mythic was probably one of the best mythic mechanic phases of all time, the mirror dance was insanely fun imo
Sepulcure was the very first raid I played tank in! It very much felt like a baptism through fire, having 1 - only started playing a tank a couple weeks prior, 2 - never played any class even capable of tanking before and 3 - only done a couple mythic dungeons before that. Halondrus was indeed easily my favourite fight in there, despite the absolutely horrific sounds it makes that kept scaring the life out of me :D
Painsmith for me was the most fun boss for me mechanics-wise, maybe more than Sire. Just had a great balance of just difficult enough, and forcing you to be on your toes, without being overly punishing or overtuned.
Halondrus definitely had a great feel thanks to great sound design and visual, especially with a cool transition phase. The ramp up to the hectic last phase is definitely heartracing.
I'd swap out Sylvanas for Soulrender tbh. Sylvanas was so long and tedious, with a terrible phase 2 and pretty meh phase 1 and 3. Her being the final boss makes the fight even worse since final bosses are typically the best fights of raids.
You say best I say infuriating for most of them (I died a lot to all those bosses)
Hoo boy, the Jailer not making this list of his own expansion, yikes
I stopped playing wow during the first patch of shadowlands, and I happened to catch the world first race for sepulcher while it was happening. And as much as I didn't want to play shadowlands or resub, watching mythic halondrus the fight seemed so incredibly cool, I really considered resubbing JUST for that fight. It was just so incredible looking.
I did come back to wow during the fated season between shadowlands and dragonflight, and was able to fight halondrus in the end. It's such a good boss, easily the best of the expansion.
Halondrus was my fave in SL by far. Prenerf this fight was hard as hell and it made alot of fun aswell.
Halondrus was the reason I couldn't hate on the Automa despite the whole, "they're just robots," aspect of them.
When you witness Halondrus in action it actually reestablishes some of the "unknowable/beyond our understanding" feel of the cosmos. The sights and sounds of it just doing what it does are what sell it. To me it seems the only reason it fights us is because we're annoyances interfering with it doing its job. Also the fact we don't actually destroy Holondrus but get it to "recall" or retreat helps in this regard.
Oh and I would completely swap the Sylvanas fight with the Jailer fight for #9. Why? Because, at least on the difficulty I did it on, it was refreshingly easy. It's like they finally understood how much people disliked Zovaal and gave us a break when it came to his fight. I definitely was relieved that I didn't have moments of getting stuck on a fight against such a lame villain.
I like your take on Halondrus.
Did you do Jailer on Normal? My guild did eventually did it on Heroic, and it was a horrible horrible time. Completely overtuned, probably because of the World First Race, and felt like a Mythic boss. One mistake by any one raid member was basically a wipe.
@@MafiaCow01 No, not normal. I am indeed a LFR scrub. So for me it was mostly a piece of cake fight.
I think I experienced one actual wipe. Died a few times though. Including one funny one where I got the bomb on me, hoped down a hole in time, went flying in the air, and out of the arena.
@@MafiaCow01 jailer was fine then it got nerfed and became a joke
Sludgefist chose his current target to charge, which should be a tank if done right.
Agree with most of them except sludgefist, for me it always a snorefest like most of the mechanics were either heal checks or oneshots that were easily avoidable and since it was tuned so you were pretty close to the hard enrage the fight felt so damn long
You should do a video on the most unique or best dungeon fights throughout all expansions
i absolutely loved rygelon, visual and mechanic wise
Castle & Sanctum are probably 2 of my top 10 favorite raids in wow. Painsmith was just hands down fun for me. I loved when u walking up to him u hear the hammering and once u enter his room the whole floor just shoots spikes up showing us whats coming. and then in CN u have the council for dancing and huntsman and his bear looking pets. So many fun raid fights in SL's. I enjoyed shadowlands the only thing i really disliked was all the currency they implemented only for it to be used only like once all xpac like the charms u got to use at the renown vendor or the stygia or soul ash/cinders. kind of was a demotivation to farm all the stuff on multiple toons cause some of it didnt come so easy.
oh painsmith... so many people didnt know that they could just walk between spikes in that one second, and just were hit all over..:D
I really expected to see the dance boss from nathria. I am, and am not surprised that Roh kalo didnt make it to this list. I reallly loved that fight
Ah, the memories....
"We hope you had a wonderful trip, and thank you for flying with Air'Zhul. " 🤣
That would actually be a cool top 10 list. "Top 10 Best First Boss Fights" or "Top 10 Worst First Boss Fights"
Hot take incoming: My favorite boss is Dausegne. On Normal and Heroic, she had way too little health, but on Mythic, she had buffed up and was ready for a long haul. Players had to focus on dodging her rings, focusing down her add, and handling a soak mechanic that was really painful to do as intended.
On top of all of that, she was NEVER nerfed. She stood at the pinnacle of her design from start to finish. Every other boss got shafted at some point, but Dausegne lived on!
For Remnant of Ner'zhul you actually could Mass Dispell the bombs and it was one of the key strategies to have an easier time on Mythic, especially in 3rd phase. The only bit that didn't work was there was a low chance that one of the bomb guys would get knocked away from the other bomb holder instead, so players who could negate the knockback or save themselves would position themselves just barely in front of the guy who couldn't. The Mass Dispell strat was such a strong option that many guilds required not just one but two Priests to just to cover every bomb spawn even if one of the Priests was low geared or low skilled, so I'm not sure where you're getting the bit about not being able to MD the bombs.
I watch all your vids but YOU ARE TRIPPIN for this video. Sire Denathrius IS #1.
Sludgefist isn't a random player, he would always choose the closest tank to charge. You could always bait which tank that would be.
I like boss fights that keep me on my toes. If I just have to sit there and attack the boss, I literally get sleepy eyes
I never met a single person that said "oh boy the anduin fight was soo good." It was a BS fight. The court boss tho in CN
on remnant mass dispelling doesnt knock entire raid off platform it is actually the tactic on mythic...
Remnant of Ner'zhul, geared people in dragonflight still can't do it due to the mechanics lol
Just to think that during raid testing Halondrus was a totally different fight. There were pillars around the room that were immune to damage that gave the boss a constant damage reduction. Tanks needed to point the beam at the pillars which would allow for them to be damaged to progress the encounter. Then the fight was changed to what it ended up being on live without any public testing on the new version.
did I miss it or is the dancing one not on this list? I loved that!!
Sadly he didn't include it.
I’m shocked that council of blood was not here. However loved the video :)
The Tarrague scared the crap out of me when it showed up in Torghast
Seems like you hired the shadowlands writers to write your description.
Nathria Xymox was the most fun ist ever had as a DK. Love the fight!
Top 3 on this list is top 3 on my personal list for SL bosses. I absolutely loved Halondrus (even on LFR) - never could understand why folks would bail on that fight.
My only issue with Remnant was the treatment such an iconic and important character got, poor Ner'zhul.
Could you rank the bosses in the new vault of incarnate raids? Just curious on what you thought about them
Shadowlands will always go down as having some of the best raid fights simply because it's the first expansion that I killed every boss on a real difficulty in.
An absolutely random question but hopefully someone can help me find the answer to it - the progress bar with cooldowns above the skill bar that you're using... is it a weakaura? If yes, what's its name?
As soon as I clicked the video I knew Halondrus would be first spot. Its a perfect fight. I did it in Heroic and it was one of the best experiences I've had. I felt like I was 16 all over again.
No hate, but it still cracks me up seeing u use MK's scrolling combat tex.
No shot Sylvanas made this list in any capacity.
Meh was pretty good on mythic
Sylvanas fight was cool thematically as an event. You could do it once in LFR and call it incredible, because of storytelling and overall design.
But it fails spectacularly on prog and reclears because of 2 things
1) It is SO LONG. You can literally Bloodlust twice on it, even when you are super geared by the end of expac.
2) That dispel mechanic on the last phase. If you do it wrong - you wipe immidiately, it is a oneshot mechanic. It requires every single person in your raid to deal with it in some way, whether to avoid puddles, call for dispels when you accidentally collect it, and for every person in the raid to avoid the corner the tank is while the tank is getting their dispel. And to add an insult to injury, it is a completely new mechanic, it only appears on p3 in any for for the first time. Imagine you've been learning first 2 phases, you arrive and p3, and you see that, you wipe. Now you gotta suffer another 10 minutes of intense bossfight just to arrive to p3 again ONLY TO TRY THE NEW MECHANIC AGAIN AND TRY TO LEARN IT.
You get to try once every 12-14 minutes, considering wipe recovery times, means about 5-6 tries per hour at best. Considering that it is the last boss of the raid, it is supposed to be hard, and you should spend your most wipes on prog there, up to 200-300 wipes on mythic at times. That is about 50 hours of wiping trying to just get to that past phase mechanic and learn it. most raid times are about 3-4 hours a day, with a middling guild doing 3-4 days per week raiding. That makes 15 or so weeks of prog for sylvanas, FOUR MONTHS JUST WIPING ON THAT STUPID BANSHEE BITCH, SUFFERING A SLOG OF 2 FIRST PHASES JUST TO SEE THE DISPEL MECHANIC AND TRY IT AGAIN.
Again, in theory, as a one-off thing its fun to do it. Once in LFR. It is not made as it is to be a part of regular raid content.
I heard that FlyingButtress was gonna do lore videos for the channel. Where are they? :D
ua-cam.com/video/n8ZOknwqK7w/v-deo.html here!
Halondrus at #1? You're on crack my guy
Also Sylvanas was horrendous
ranzal is easily my favorite boss, and i almost favor bosses that require a specific class just to complete it like blast furnace you needed a priest to MC a security guard. most fights like that are super well made. i’d change sylvanas over soul render is probably the most fun mythic boss i’ve ever done
MY LIST
Painsmith
Sire
Halo
im so happy i did progress thoese bosses on mythic!
DUDE i love your ui would love to have that
Poor Jailer doesn't even get a honorific mention in this video lol
Fuck the Jailer. He doesn’t exist in my canon.
Sludgefist was mostly right, but it's missing three bits in its description, and one mistake. It's not a random player he charges, it's always the closest Tank. The three missing bits are the knockback and the associated communication needed (If one person pushes through/immunes, they die anyway due to chain snap), the chain yank at a pack of ranged players where you either had to carefully plan who went into it in Heroic or you had to keep enough immune-capable ranged players to counter the yank, and lastly, on Mythic, the impacts would spawn damage zones where you needed four groups to soak, and then twelve players to soak.
POWERFUL CRAB.
Best cosmic robo crab
That number one pick has every melee class question your sanity.
I'm glad to see Zovaal either didn't make it to the list.
10. Terragrue. Ok, let's say I agree I'm not sure if it would make my list but everything you said is correct
9. Sylvanas. I have super mixed feelings abaut this boss I both love and hate it, the worst part was phase 1.5 where she throws shit at you for a minute, and entire raid goes afk on safespots. Phase 2 however was fine, they did EXACLY the fix you want them to...just on Mythic. In general this fight was clearly designed on Mythic, and then they went "shit what do we do to make it beatable for HC players"...aaaand they removed all fun stuff from phase 1, turned phase 1.5 from ~20sec of extreame onsloth-->minute of being afk, into just being afk. and Phase 2 into the snorefest it was...3rd phase was fine on HC tho
8. Ner'Zul HELL NO! This is BY FAR the most hated boss from entire raid. It's the boss, that is fun for first ~30 wipes, but from there to kill it's ragefest, and on farm guids want to kill each other cuz so many dumb shit was happening here every time for everyone (on Mythic, obviously, HC version is so stripped down, the rage factor disapears, cuz there are no overleaps anymore)
7. Rygelon yea I agree, good fight, had some bullshit moments, but it's fine for second to last boss
6. Sludgefist...ah I see, you play ranged...good, melee will kill you for putting it here tho xD
5. Yea, I personally hate this, but it's great overall and I'm just biased, cuz I never learned to play it properly
4. YES! Everything you said is correct. It's the final boss in the middle of the raid...and then they turned yellow and black runes from "touch anyone other than opposite colour and you wipe" into HC version, making the mechanic totaly trivial, but rest of the fight still stands as great
3. UNLEASH THE INSTRUMENT! SPIKED DEATH COMES FOR YOU! ... yes I went insane during progression, why ask? I used to know all his voicelanes on all timers, and yell these during "these pulls where boss was pracricly dead AND WE WAITED FOR 3 IDIOTS WHO KEEPT FUCKING THINGS UP"...one never learned so we to this day joke around, we learned how to kill this boss as team of 19 with 3 healers...or 4 healers despite bringing 5? shit I don't remember now xD
2. Fight isn't THAT great, but Daddy D. Is the greatest thing that came out from shadowlands, so yea we all love this
1. Dude...move? mechanics? FUCKING BOMBS!...on top of mechanics...and insane DPS checks...and intermission...with bombs...yea Mythic version was wild, but super fun
I wana start off with, because of the "delaed" opening of LFR I first ran the first 2 raid because of the faited system, this needs to be a staple of the "end" of every x-pac
As someone who started playing wow in shadowlands I would love to see this as a series for older expansions because I was never able to experience those fights when they were released
Painsmith should've played a flaming guitar in the intermission.
Daddy D was my favorite of Shadowlands but probably had more fun clearing and progressing Krabby Boi
The simple explanation for Sylvanas chains of "run away until someone breaks your chain" never really seemed to sink in with most people, causing the fight to be absolutely horrendous at times. Nothing like constant wipes to chains, rive, and bridge boss
I really hated halondrus, comes really as a surprise to me that he was Loved at all :O would really Like to hear what class/Spec Players played who Liked him aswell as disliked him (mage/wl for me)
Lol, up to 10 minutes you say for Sylvanas that's cute, you were able to use Bloodlust on the pull and then again on the third platform in phase 3, she took closer to 14 minutes unless you completely outgeared the fight, but I bet it still would be around 12 minutes. Honestly the second phase wasn't that bad, I personally think the worst part about her fight was the first phase which was basically a formality and not really needed.
bro is literally running away from chained partner on sludgefist lol
Honestly even though I didnt like the Jailors story or character at all, I really enjoyed the Bossfight. It just kinda feeled badass. Would probably be on my list in place of Nerzhul :P Really didnt like that one xD
I couldn’t even watch this video because I haven’t gotten over the trauma of Shadowlands…..
In my opinion Halondrus was just on Mythic the best fight shadowlands, because it was so mechanically challenging and I loved Progressing it. On Heroic/Normal the boss made cool sounds and all but wasn’t that fun to play imo. If you want to rate the best bosses overall I wouldn’t put him that high on the list compared to bosses like Sludgefist or Sire who where also quite unique and fun to play on heroic
Even seeing Halondrus in a video without screen shake disabled is making me sick to my stomach. I really appreciate Blizzard adding that option.
Gonna guess it's all Nathria and then the Spider mech boss and painsmith
PainSHIT RazNOPE was the biggest middle finger of a boss in this expansion, seeing it in this top BEST boss is absurd...
sire denathrius is one of the best new wow villains they have ever done
