FBK - Firelands - Alysrazor - 10n

This week’s ‘Tuesday night/Wednesday morning’ reset brought one significant change to the current Firelands raid content: a major nerf. The nerf was two-fold – all bosses in the zone would now output approximately 25% less damage whilst requiring approximately 25% incoming damage to be killed. For many on our team, the first realisation of what a huge reduction in difficulty this represented occurred when we faced Lord Rhyolith, a boss we’d only killed for the first time ever last week and with some reasonable effort required.

Tonight, Lord Rhyolith fell for a second time despite the 10-player team losing one of its DPS members early on. All agreed, it was hardly even challenging. Following that moment of disappointment, the team faced off against Alysrazor who’d been our focus at the end of the previous week. We’d struggled to pass out of phase one last week due to the ferocity of the phase two tornados. No such trouble tonight. It took barely more than a couple of practice attempts at each subsequent phase to get ourselves organised and Halona had another FBK in the bag.
