| + | Im a big fan of [[Varok Saurfang]], and I think [[Garrosh]] is a great warchief. He sure did participate more and the quests are way better. [[Thrall]] is awesome, but he did not participate in questlines nearly enough. He just stood in a corner of orgrimmar in grommash hold. Now, garrosh stands in the most populated area in orgrimmar, and appears in many questlines, teleporting with a huge squad of kor'kron. |

| + | And [[Trade Prince]] [[Gallywix]]? Average [[goblin]]. I had the idea to put a tole booth on the [[Dark Portal] before he did! Just kidding, but every goblin would. We are a greedy, rich, selfish people, and pretty much build everything. [[Orgrimmar]]? Goblins. New Orgrimmar? Also goblins. [[Bilgewater Harbor]] (one of my favorite places, despite how small it is)? It was literally built in a day. That's called the magic of a [[Town-In-A-Box]]. Copyrighted by the [[Bilgewater Cartel]]. If it doesn't work, your screwed out of 2,000,000 gold and all the money in the [[guild bank]]. Any injuries or deaths sustained whilst using the town- in- a- box cannot be blamed on the Bilgewater Cartel, but should be directed towards [[Deathwing]], who destroyed [[Kezan]] and most of the materials used in the original. Dictated but not read. |

| − | '''Thorim''' is one of the boss encounters in [[Ulduar (instance)|Ulduar]]. In order to defeat Thorim, players must go through a gauntlet starting off with a {{mob|Jormungar Behemoth}} and a rush of [[iron dwarves]]. |
||
| + | After reading the story of Mida Silvertongue, aka, [[Boss Mida]], as she is known in game, I realized something about Gallywix (aka, Maldy). After Blizzard saw how he was portrayed in the story, an extremely greedy and warped goblin (he viewed the poor as the real "monsters"), they decided to give him a different background, giving him a rags to riches story, and making it so that a Trade Prince does not inherit the position, but you have to be the richest on Kezan to obtain it, for then you are next in line, or just rising to the top in general. By giving Gallywix an extremely poor background, they probably meant to make people like him more, by making people realize that all goblins are like that. It is, as then [[Trade Prince Maldy]] put it in the leader story, 'just business'. (then Gallywix says "don't say just; it sounds like an apology") They changed his background from rich to richer from rag (he probably had only the one pair of clothes) to richest, and proved his genius by taking over tons of business on only his tenth birthday (considering this was during the [[Second War]], Gallywix is now somewhere in his 40s, considering how much time approximately passed between the [[Second War]] and [[Cataclysm]]). |

| − | ==Abilities== |
||
| − | ===Gauntlet-related=== |
||
| − | *'''Charge Orb''': Charges a nearby orb with electricity. Orbs affected by this ability gain a periodic effect that fires a Lightning Shock every second, inflicting 2831 to 3169 Nature damage to a nearby enemy. Lightning Shock has a 35 yard range so it can be avoided by standing in the center of the room. |
||
| − | *[[Image:Spell Lightning LightningBolt01.png|32px]] '''Sheath of Lightning''': Encases the caster in a sheath of pure electrical energy, reducing all damage taken by 99%. |
||
| − | *'''Stormhammer''': Throws a stormhammer, dealing 2451 to 2551 damage to an enemy, knocking down and stunning the target for 2 sec, and causing a [http://www.wowhead.com/?spell=62470 '''Deafening Thunder'''] to all enemies nearby the target. He will only use this ability during the Gauntlet portion of the fight. After he leaps down from his perch, he will no longer use this ability. |
||
| − | *'''Summon Lightning Orb''': Summons a supercharged ball of energy, laying waste to all in its path. This ability is used if either a) no one is in the room below where Thorim stands, or b) if five minutes pass and no one reaches Thorim. |
||
| − | ===Encounter=== |
||
| − | *[[Image:Spell_Nature_ChainLightning.png|32px]] [http://www.wowhead.com/?spell=64390 '''Chain Lightning''']: Strikes an enemy with a blast of lightning that inflicts 3700 to 4300 Nature damage (4625 to 5375 on heroic). The bolt will arc to additional nearby enemies, inflicting 50% more Nature damage to each successive target. |
||
| − | *[[Image:Spell Lightning LightningBolt01.png|32px]] [http://www.wowhead.com/?spell=62466 '''Lightning Charge''']: Absorbs a torrent of electrical energy, inflicting 13875 to 16125 Nature damage (17344 to 20156 on heroic) to enemies in a cone between the caster and the power source, and gaining a stacking buff called "Lightning Charge" that increases Thorim's melee damage and attack speed by 15%, and Nature damage dealt by 10%. When he uses this ability, the "power source" used is one of the pillars with the orbs attached. |
||
| − | *'''Melee strike''': deals ?? physical damage. |
||
| − | *[[Image:Ability Warrior DecisiveStrike.png|32px]] [http://www.wowhead.com/?spell=62130 '''Unbalancing Strike''']: Inflicts 200% weapon damage and leaves the target unbalanced, reducing their defense skill by 200 for 15 sec. Tanks need to taunt off of each other to counter this. |
||
| − | ===[[Sif|Sif's Abilities]]=== |
||
| − | * Frost Bolt Volley - Inflicts 11250 to 13750 frost damage to all raid members and slows movement for 4 sec. 8 sec cooldown. Instant. |
||
| − | * Frost Nova - Inflicts 14138 to 15862 frost damage to targets within roughly 8 yards and roots them for 6 sec. 2.5 sec cast. |
||
| + | What's up with the Bilgewater Cartel having almost no settlements? I cant wait for Kezan to become a full on zone. It better become the Goblin capital,cause [[Bilgewater Harbor]] is to smalll to really count, but i do love spending time there. If i were [[Blizzard]], I would have added a few Bilgewater (neutral, of course) settlements in places like Northrend, to make it seem like they were always there, in an earlier patch before [[Cataclysm]] came out, to create an allusion of their existence always being there, not just popping up out of nowhere in Cataclysm. I hope we retake kezan like with zalazane's fall, where it comes out, and after the next patch permanent changes are made, giving kezan back as capital city, but mobs would be atleast like 12, considering when we get out, and a boat route ( goblin boat, like the one in bladefist bay) connects Kezan and bilgewater harbor in azshara. |
||
| − | ==Adds== |
||
| − | ===Initial mobs=== |
||
| − | *1 [[Jormungar Behemoth]] |
||
| − | *1 [[Dark Rune Acolyte]] |
||
| − | *1 [[Captured Mercenary Captain]] |
||
| − | *3 [[Captured Mercenary Soldier]]s |
||
| + | But thing that really pisses me off is that the [[Steamwheedle Cartel]] awards NO rewards from a [[quartermaster]]. None. Zip. nada. BUBCIS! All that time grinding [[reputation]] and what do you get? Small amounts of gold (cause all the steamwheedle quests are before lv. 70, when more gold is given out than before). No good rewards. Blizzard should really add a Steamwheedle quartermaster with their own [[tabard]]. |
||
| − | ===Gauntlet mobs=== |
||
| + | I'm sure that everyone who knows about [[Cairne Bloodhoof]] and his associated lore have taken note that they never showed him with the runespear in game. They even updated his model for patch 4.0.1, but did not give him the runespear! What is up with that? And now that [[Baine]] has been given his own unique weapon in lore, and have now updated his his model WITHOUT it, it seems they are going to make the exact same mistake. They better update his model with the uniquely modeled hammer, or else Blizzard is going to have a [[Horde]] ([[lol]]s) of angry players on their hands. |
||
| − | ;[[Runic Colossus]] |
||
| + | When I think of WOW, and need to describe it in one word, this is how you answer it: THRALL. He embodies everything that wow is, all its strength, all its happiness, all its sorrow, and is no doubt the most powerful shaman and possibly character in wow. In the battle against Deathwing, I imagine that he would ride on the back of [[Alexstrasza]], and players would ride on drakes, kinda like with the fight with [[Malygos]]. |

| − | ==Hard Mode== |
||
| − | [[File:SifsiphThorim.jpg|The illusion of Sif controlling Thorim|thumb]] |
||
| − | If you reach Thorim within 2:45 (6:15 on Heroic) of killing the adds in the entrance, the illusion of Thorim's wife Sif will attack the raid throughout the fight. In addition, Thorim will have +30% health, deal +40% extra damage and not be affected by Touch of Dominion. |
||
| − | |||
| − | ==Strategy== |
||
| − | At the start of the fight when you engage the Jormungar Behemoth and the other adds, Thorim will cast Sheath of Lightning on himself, making him almost entirely invulnerable to attacks. Have one tank turn the Jormungar away from the raid, and have the rest tank and AoE the adds, focusing primarily on the healers (the smallest one in front and the dark runed dwarf in the back). |
||
| − | |||
| − | After the initial mobs are down, the lever next to the gate on the left will become active. The raid should now split in half; one half should go down the hallway to reach Thorim, and the other half needs to stay and fight off adds and attacks by Thorim. At this point you will want to have both fire and nature resistance. You will have 5 minutes to complete the gauntlet (getting to Thorim) before he enrages and wipes the raid. |
||
| − | |||
| − | Once Thorim is activated, he will proceed with the fight, progressively gaining damage and attack speed as the fight goes on. This is a passive enrage timer, so speed is not a dependent requirement on his tank phase, but it is helpful. |
||
| − | |||
| − | ===The Gauntlet=== |
||
| − | The gauntlet requires a minimum of a tank, a DPS, and a healer. It is best to have additional DPS (ranged with CC preferred), as much as you can spare from the group killing adds, to quickly reach the end of the gauntlet where Thorim will engage the party. Speed is key at this point, because after five minutes he will wipe the raid. It is also important because everyone in the raid will be taking a lot of damage and healing becomes an issue during the encounter with Thorim. |
||
| − | |||
| − | There are 3 groups of 3 Warbringers. They are sheepable, fearable, mind controllable, etc. Two should be CC'd while you burn down the others. At the end of the hallway, there is a large golem. He raises one arm and does damage to anyone on that side of the hallway, much like the Skadi encounter in Utgarde Pinnacle. A short time after he is engaged he will gain a buff that decreases his damage by 50%, so if using cooldowns it's best to use them early. |
||
| − | |||
| − | After defeating the golem the door behind it will open and mobs will begin to spawn from the top of the stairs. Defeat the two sets of two mobs already standing there and make your way to the top of the stairs. When the giant is pulled he will buff any adds still alive, but the adds will stop spawning. Make sure the healer is in LOS of the tank yet out of the giant's stomp. This can easily be accomplished by bringing the giant to the top of the stairs and having the healer about halfway down. |
||
| − | |||
| − | After the giant is defeated someone must cast an ability on Thorim to get him to enter the arena. Avoid the large circles on the ground as they are traps that will paralyze you for a brief time. |
||
| − | |||
| − | ;Entrance Room |
||
| − | Those staying in the room will need to stack up in the middle to avoid the charged orbs around the sides. This will also make AoE healing to allies and AoE damage to enemies easier to dish out. The Large Vrykals do a whirlwind and need to be kept away from the main raid. The evokers casts HoTs that heal for massive amounts and also cast magic damage shield. Both are dispellable and need to be dispelled quickly. Wound poison also help here to reduce the amount they heal. But make sure to spread out when he targets someone with a stormhammer. |
||
| − | |||
| − | Alternatively, you can stay bunched up for stormhammers as damage taken during this phase is light unless someone gets too close to an overcharged orb. If your group chooses this method, it is optimal to make sure the healer with the center group has instant cast and group heals. |
||
| − | |||
| − | ===Boss fight=== |
||
| − | Once the gauntlet group reaches Thorim he will jump down, he needs to be picked up by the MT immediately. About 15 seconds in he will do his first Unbalancing strike, when he does this, the OT needs to taunt immediately. When you see the little lightning balls coming from a column this means he is about to use lightning charge, and that side of the room in a 60 degree angle around the column wil be shocked for a very large amount of damage, one shotting players after the third one. Spread out around him to avoid chain lightning links as well. |
||
| − | |||
| − | ===Lose your Illusion=== |
||
| − | If your group reaches Thorim within 2:45 (6:15 on Heroic) of initiating the encounter, Yogg-Saron under the illusory guise of Sif will join the battle. This changes several things about the encounter greatly increasing the difficulty. |
||
| − | |||
| − | Thorim will have 30% more HP and 40% more damage, while the damage is not a large deal, the HP will mean he will gain considerably more stacks of Lightning Charged meaning cooldowns will be required to prevent tank death towards the end. Thorim's Chain lightning will be very dangerous to melee on Heroic mode so it is advisable to form 2-3 melee camps more than 8 yards from each other around the boss, as with Kel'Thuzad at 60. |
||
| − | |||
| − | [[File:Thorimposition.jpg|thumb|Raid Positioning]] |
||
| − | |||
| − | Sif herself is unattackable. She has four abilities which when chained together can outright kill a raid member from full to dead on Heroic mode. |
||
| − | *Frostbolt Single: This does 11,000-13,000 Frost damage and is chain cast on random targets when Sif isn't casting anything else. |
||
| − | *Frostbolt Volley: This is the same damage as her single target frostbolt and hits everyone in the room every 10-15 seconds. |
||
| − | *Frost Nova: Sif will often teleport to a random location around the room and begin casting Frost Nova which takes 2.5 seconds to cast. It does extremely high amounts of damage (13,000-15,000) so avoiding it by running away is paramount but not always possible with the snares in the encounter. |
||
| − | *Blizzard: Much like Shade of Aran Sif will conjure a Blizzard which orbits the centre of the room, making the centre 'safe'. It does 4,500 Frost damage every 2 seconds and snares targets by 50%. |
||
| − | Due to the extreme lethality of Sif's abilities on Heroic mode one piece of frost resist gear and frost resist aura is advisable to avoid raid members being killed outright from full to dead within the space of half a second. More than one piece is not reccomended as it will hinder your DPS too severely. |
||
| − | |||
| − | When Thorim is defeated 'Sif' will be revealed for what it is: an influence tentacle of Yogg-Saron. |

Revision as of 00:09, 6 September 2011
Hey, im Bigbucks,(lv. 58) goblin rogue of winterhoof, member of Zombie Land I also have a (lv. 65) death knight (my main) goblin named Biggerbucks, on the same server. Im a big fan of Varok Saurfang, and I think Garrosh is a great warchief. He sure did participate more and the quests are way better. Thrall is awesome, but he did not participate in questlines nearly enough. He just stood in a corner of orgrimmar in grommash hold. Now, garrosh stands in the most populated area in orgrimmar, and appears in many questlines, teleporting with a huge squad of kor'kron.
And Trade Prince Gallywix? Average goblin. I had the idea to put a tole booth on the [[Dark Portal] before he did! Just kidding, but every goblin would. We are a greedy, rich, selfish people, and pretty much build everything. Orgrimmar? Goblins. New Orgrimmar? Also goblins. Bilgewater Harbor (one of my favorite places, despite how small it is)? It was literally built in a day. That's called the magic of a Town-In-A-Box. Copyrighted by the Bilgewater Cartel. If it doesn't work, your screwed out of 2,000,000 gold and all the money in the guild bank. Any injuries or deaths sustained whilst using the town- in- a- box cannot be blamed on the Bilgewater Cartel, but should be directed towards Deathwing, who destroyed Kezan and most of the materials used in the original. Dictated but not read.
After reading the story of Mida Silvertongue, aka, Boss Mida, as she is known in game, I realized something about Gallywix (aka, Maldy). After Blizzard saw how he was portrayed in the story, an extremely greedy and warped goblin (he viewed the poor as the real "monsters"), they decided to give him a different background, giving him a rags to riches story, and making it so that a Trade Prince does not inherit the position, but you have to be the richest on Kezan to obtain it, for then you are next in line, or just rising to the top in general. By giving Gallywix an extremely poor background, they probably meant to make people like him more, by making people realize that all goblins are like that. It is, as then Trade Prince Maldy put it in the leader story, 'just business'. (then Gallywix says "don't say just; it sounds like an apology") They changed his background from rich to richer from rag (he probably had only the one pair of clothes) to richest, and proved his genius by taking over tons of business on only his tenth birthday (considering this was during the Second War, Gallywix is now somewhere in his 40s, considering how much time approximately passed between the Second War and Cataclysm).
What's up with the Bilgewater Cartel having almost no settlements? I cant wait for Kezan to become a full on zone. It better become the Goblin capital,cause Bilgewater Harbor is to smalll to really count, but i do love spending time there. If i were 
[Blizzard], I would have added a few Bilgewater (neutral, of course) settlements in places like Northrend, to make it seem like they were always there, in an earlier patch before Cataclysm came out, to create an allusion of their existence always being there, not just popping up out of nowhere in Cataclysm. I hope we retake kezan like with zalazane's fall, where it comes out, and after the next patch permanent changes are made, giving kezan back as capital city, but mobs would be atleast like 12, considering when we get out, and a boat route ( goblin boat, like the one in bladefist bay) connects Kezan and bilgewater harbor in azshara.
But thing that really pisses me off is that the Steamwheedle Cartel awards NO rewards from a quartermaster. None. Zip. nada. BUBCIS! All that time grinding reputation and what do you get? Small amounts of gold (cause all the steamwheedle quests are before lv. 70, when more gold is given out than before). No good rewards. Blizzard should really add a Steamwheedle quartermaster with their own tabard. I'm sure that everyone who knows about Cairne Bloodhoof and his associated lore have taken note that they never showed him with the runespear in game. They even updated his model for patch 4.0.1, but did not give him the runespear! What is up with that? And now that Baine has been given his own unique weapon in lore, and have now updated his his model WITHOUT it, it seems they are going to make the exact same mistake. They better update his model with the uniquely modeled hammer, or else Blizzard is going to have a Horde (lols) of angry players on their hands. When I think of WOW, and need to describe it in one word, this is how you answer it: THRALL. He embodies everything that wow is, all its strength, all its happiness, all its sorrow, and is no doubt the most powerful shaman and possibly character in wow. In the battle against Deathwing, I imagine that he would ride on the back of Alexstrasza, and players would ride on drakes, kinda like with the fight with Malygos.
