Oh, you just reminded me, he also claims they've figured out some trash areas in kara that actually pull faster when they have the makeup to split up into two 5-man groups. Besides the pre-Moroes trash, I can't think of what this could be.

[Tatt]

There are only 2 places I can see that being even remotely worthwhile, between Moroes and Maiden trash, and all the trash around Aran/Ilhoof/Chess

[Kazeyonoma]

I've done it with t5 and alts in 2.5 hours, so if you're t6 people are claiming 2 hours I just don't see it happening.

[Forklift]

Nevermind, they do it in 80 minutes. The 2 hour run was when everybody was on alts and he was on a level 68 shadowpriest.

As was said the benchmark is around 80min and it was webstated ... for speed runs its almost always 1 tank 1 healer 8 dps.

There are lots of tricks you need to know like

Moroes:
You need to deal with gouge. Generally this involves 2nd agro to be a range such as a hunter or butt tanking him (tank with back to him) easier for a pally tank than warrior.

Ice tomb mobs:
Similar problem to moroes need to control who is 2nd on agro for when tank gets ice tombed.

Curator:
Tank front rest of raid stacked on behind. You need group healing cause flares hit everyone but you aoe them down along with curator. He should be dead before or just after 1st evocate.

Nightbane:
Dpsed in air is key to a fast kill time. He should ideally just land and take off.

Netherspite:
You need to get another class to be able to tank in red beam or tank needs to be able to tank 1 phase without anyone in the red beam.


There is also lots of composition of group etc you need to consider. When we looked at webstats for the run ... chess was actually the slowest encounter.

Edit: Unfortunately the webstat has expired but the boss fights were fast like I remember maiden was dead in 40 seconds so they spend most of there time on trash.

My personal best was about 1:45 as a tank with an OT and 2 healers, I think we broke1:30 with the 1 tank 1 heal setup (Me healing, GG holy priest!) Solo healing it is pretty intense, and illhoof scared the crap out of me, I got chained and all the heals I had was a spriest bubble, luckily 8 dps kill them fast.

[LittleMan]

1 hour 55ish minutes...

Didnt mark much.. had a pally tanking all the trash mobs... me (warrior) tanking bosses. Pally tank put on healing gear and healed for nightbane and prince.

[Tizack]

Did kara in 1 hour 24 mins killed maiden in 46 seconds.

[Murdog]

I believe ours is 1 Hour 28 Min without ZOMG pushing had Me and Feral Druid for tanking 1 Holy Paladin a Spriest and rest DPS

Favorite part is havign Nightbane Take off at 75% and not landing till 2% ..... Hav eto let him land cause if he hits0% in the air he gets bugged and does not land .... EVER.
