It forces people to play more surgical, a little slower, a little more careful... it really does change everything. People are scared and that shows through. I dont blame them one bit, Id be fucking terrified.
@@MrHitsGame yeah but the game is 20 years old. Everyone playing in this raid has literal years of play time and has done the raid before. It's not that impressive
As someone who was raiding since 2005 and today and leading myself a team of 18 individuals in real life I am deeply impressed by Amphy's ability to keep a cool head even in the most chaotic moments, to have an intangible view of the overall situation, and to not only reach his team members with precise commands, but to gain their full trust. Simply remarkable and I pay you my utmost respect! Each Raid which I try follow on Twitch is pure entertainment!
Naxx is extremely tough content, most guilds never even got close in Vanilla. It is extremely impressive that this was done on a hardcore server. I can't even imagine.
honestly Ahmpy, you might be the only person who could put 2 years of "WoW - HC Raid Lead" on their resume and I'd hire you immediately as head of project management. This is exactly and the only qualification I would need to see. ^^
You have the same voice as my friend from Dayz who passed 12 days ago. He has this calming caring voice. I like how you care for each individual in your guild and how cautious you guys play. Sadly with petri flasks it will not be the same. Good job
I had to go to dinner half way through the video and then I came back and finished it. My god Ahmpy is a insane raid leader. Holy shit. So calm, level headed, clear instructions, great voice. Amazing work team.
@@notafortnitegamer I feel bad picking on a obvious 13 year old but please stfu. Male characters in mmo are lame. You the type of mf to play a male blood elf or night elf.
You’re a good leader. Calm, smooth voice, demanding high standards, direct communication, respectful, good under pressure, if things get heated you’re good at taking control and salvage the situation, willing to take calculated risks, seemingly decent man management. There’s many work places that could use those qualities.
The thrill of your character’s literal life on the line while simultaneously leading 40 of your hand picked comrades is such a treat to watch Amphy. Its hard to understand the pressure of even one mistake or miscommunication by Amphy as the shotcaller can mean someone’s character’s unfortunate death. Bravo to everyone in Frontier putting in the work and rest in glory to the two that fell that night in Naxxaramus.
There is something about classic content that is really fascinating to watch. Compared to retail it really feels handicapped which makes it that much more special when playing with a single life.
Remember doing Naxx about 15 years ago, not HC obviously, but it was double tough. Doing this on HC takes serious coordination and discipline so kudos to them. I agree with another poster, I raided under many decent raid leaders, but Ahmpy is excellent. Four Horsemen and Kel’Thezud will be a test though.
Agreed. Back in the day when everything was still being learned. Little to no strats, unknown loot tables etc. With HC you have the advantage of tons of addons telling u the strat in detail
Nice job Ahmpy! It's a breath of fresh air to see a high profile classic raid leader not be a total aggro dickhead. Hope to see you clear everything first!
I have hired leaders for several positions. If you send me this video in your application you would most likely be the nr.1 choice before the next progress steps.
they had 2 deaths and didnt do a full clear, but maybe we'll see it in the coming weeks or months. doubt they want to go KT too fast or they lose their members and lose their shot at world first hc kt. need to get them geared.
Can't wait to watch the Safety Dance :P This is awesome content. I wish I had time to devote to WoW these days. I would love to be part of a hardcore guild like this.
You all must be the most experienced and dedicated players in the entire history of World of Warcraft. Congratulations to each of you; your exceptional knowledge of the game is truly impressive.
I would never bother with HC because a connection/technical issue/z-axis hit range bug could nuke all your progress, but it does seem much more fun when the stakes are this high.
Well for those who raided in classic its honestly felt similar cause of buffs. You're on edge and nobody wants to die or the fun is over. Except you know I don't need to spend 100 hours again leveling if I do die...
@@ykonratev People who made serious effort to collect buffs are pathetic. Does it matter if you clear MC in 2 hours or 1h 45 min? You actually waste more time collecting world buffs than you save by having them on. And vanilla is so easy you don't need them, or BiS items even.
People saying stuff like "it's not that impressive, game released this X years ago" - "it's the same raid, nothing changed" - "bosses have no mechanic at all, it's boring" - etc... Bitch, you could never... I'd like to see those guys try and do as good as this raid (and of course, not die on HC). Also, HUGE congrats to the raid leader for his AMAZING job on every call and making sure every single one of the members stays safe. Good luck on the next 3 wings!
Plus nax isn't easy by any means. Like if you want to efficiently clear it takes some decent coordination...it may not be hard cause of mechanics but it's not easy where you just pull shit and don't think
At the end he said there was a death, is it not in this video or did I miss it? Only saw hunter FDs and a couple times there were empty spots in the raid, but didn't actually see anyone die.
A warrior died during their BWL run. No one died during the Naxx run. And then one more player from their guild died but he was not a part of the raid.
If you're referring to Anub'rekhan then he never touches the slime, he runs along the outside of the room to keep raid members out of the nasty aoe the boss has at that point. You can see it tick on the main tank for over two and a half thousand several times.
Cool, but world buffs make it way easier than intended. I’ll be impressed once someone takes down HC Naxx without spending hours coordinating Head/Heart/DM/Songflower buffs.
Yeah but it's not like they have gear that's meant for nax. They have what a few weeks of Mc and bwl loot...rest is prebis or 20 man raids idk but it'd be impossible without buffs
@@megadoomer5309 actually using dw fury tank means you are the new kid. this didnt happen when it was released originally. imagine feeling smug over some crap in a 17 year old game. World first were cool in 2005. Now, its just sad. Like a grown man winning a judo contest for 12 year olds lmao
@@ashurafreedan World first was never "cool". Lol it's a competition among a very small number of sweaty tryhards every single time. Also, weird analogy seeing as the classic playerbase is a bunch of 30 year olds. Haha
Most impressive and cool headed but direct raid leader I’ve ever seen, many others feel the same. Bravo Ahmpy, hope to join Frontier one day
There some weird stories about this guild that the leader stalks the woman in the guild and some other disturbing info. Can read about it online
Care to show a link if it on reddit?@@Stormmud
simp
The racist guy from Grizzly who griefed people and spam reported people and got them banned for no reason? What a great amazing person :)
Dont know about all the personal stuff, but this guys leading skills are fantastic
its amazing how having 1 life change the entire raid movements
It forces people to play more surgical, a little slower, a little more careful... it really does change everything. People are scared and that shows through. I dont blame them one bit, Id be fucking terrified.
@@ChairmanMeow1 terrified of video game death
uh, yeah dude@@milkweed93
it forces people to play like retards, thats all it changes, braidead boomers spending 3 hours to clear 15 years old content
@@milkweed93when you put so much time and effort into your character only to lose it all if you die, it's fair to feel scared
I have no interest in playing HC WoW but I do know what it is and what the stakes are, that makes it very impressive to watch you lead this raid.
Not really any stakes for most people due to Petri flask. HUGE blizzard L for not taking it out of the game.
@@RoxxSerm Bro if you make a mistake you lose about 150 hours of playing at least.
@@MrHitsGame yeah but the game is 20 years old. Everyone playing in this raid has literal years of play time and has done the raid before. It's not that impressive

Same!
Pretty easy for anyone that’s raidlead retail mythic to full clear. It’s like 5% of the intensity
@@sasukefaan where's your hardcore raid clears? if you die you lose everything, stop comparing it to retail
where are you leading those 18 individuals? 😅
just watching the tanks life during trash packs was giving me heart palpitations... the prep for this must be insane
Naxx is extremely tough content, most guilds never even got close in Vanilla. It is extremely impressive that this was done on a hardcore server. I can't even imagine.
It was actually exactly 0.1% of guilds who cleared naxx back then. So only one guild in a thousand! Insane!
honestly Ahmpy, you might be the only person who could put 2 years of "WoW - HC Raid Lead" on their resume and I'd hire you immediately as head of project management. This is exactly and the only qualification I would need to see. ^^
I was thinking the same thing. Guild leader could put this on his resume potentially, it’s very impressive.
Assuming he has time to play this much he probably is well off financially already enough to not need a job
@@Viftsdon’t make assumptions.

If he played a male character he would be the perfect RL
Love Ahmpy, so chill and nice. Sometimes I do feel like he needs to be a little bit more mean or assertive to keep some of his raid in check
@@CYl0l thats a good point you make, 40 man raids can get a little silly sometimes
@@notafortnitegamer I sympathise with him, 40 man alone is hard enough to lead, on hardcore I can't imagine the stress

Holy fuck this raid leader is legit
Impressive AF! Great work dudes.
Amphy needs more Subs for this Run!
This raid leading is very impressive
The success also comes from the feeling of the players that they will die forever if thry mess up. So they will be super careful and do their best.
Get this out of my recommendations, thanks.
Dude, this is thrilling..
Really good run 👍
Nice job Ahmpy! It's a breath of fresh air to see a high profile classic raid leader not be a total aggro dickhead. Hope to see you clear everything first!
That is NOT the direction i would have faced my camera when kiting anub, scary moment
this seems like the antithesis of fun, glad you guys did it so I could watch though
guys ! all of u are awsome !!! and this raid lead is nuts
Very impressive.👍 Nicely done.
Ahmpy is one of the goats this cements it
Pretty impressive stuff considering your gear and whats at stake. Great raidlead, rarly see those.
I have hired leaders for several positions. If you send me this video in your application you would most likely be the nr.1 choice before the next progress steps.
Why should he send it again, you can watch it here
1000% agree
Nice video !
Clearing Nax 40 with no death its a pretty damm great achievment, great focus and raid leading 👍

beautiful to watch
Pretty impressive considering they dont really have that much gear yet
Yeah! The skill will always compensate the weak/low gear.

Mitch Jones brought me here. I like your style
Leeeroooyyyy in the masses 🥹
great raid leading bro. calm, direct.
I just learned you were in Grizzly and got stomped lol
WoW has always reminded me of sword art online anime (s1) and this wow HC is probably the closest feeling to how SAO would look like IRL 😂
2 brave souls gave it all so the rest could win.
HC WoW makes each death so fucking tragic.
I'm not even playing and watching this gives me so much anxiety.
i wish my raid was this organized. you guys are beasts, gg!
Any clue why almost recently they are tanking two daggers or two one hand?
3:56 odd groups left, even groups right. that means 1,3,5,7 left. 2,4,6,8 right. there is no aggro reset
whelps whelps many whelps
The amount of Mitch babysitting is crazy. Don't know how you tolerate it.
never seen a flow so beautiful in a 40 raid. your voice is also amazing. gg
A+ Good Job Gratz boyz
Having petri flask next to Intercept seems scary to me.
I would assume this would be how one would feel if they were involved in Sword Art Online.
MORE!
Respect, and well done 👏
Frontier be like, "feeling cute, think I'll tank naxx with a draconian deflector"
Question: Did you use group loot for Anub? It looks like you did, why? I'm surprised you didn't use master lo-
Oh, is it in case you died?
Yes
If I'm not mistaken you were one of the first r14s on Elysium in the guild GRIZZLY?
Cant wait to see horseman, patch and other bosses in naxx. Keep it up/
Cant wait to see who the 5th horseman is
Good stuff
Good job on something done many times before except now in HC.
Astonishing
Composure: Astronaut level.

I have no interest in HC because man the tank and heal roles must be so much more stressful in this mode. Ugh
“Just Log off” - I thought that was sarcastic… Bros literally were not even online for the fight to maximize efficiency, that’s kinda bonkers
Lol that dude asked if he could login , gets told yes, then 2 seconds later gets told that was wrong haha poor guy
Dicey Dicey :) GGWP
When did they find petri??
Since it's HC, the rewards/loots should be more and not the same as normal.
This was done 20 years ago
Do people mule their gold and mats on alts when they do this kind of stuff?
I'm assuming the main tank running through the acid has reason to it.
