The door to Shahraz will open when you kill Shade of Akama, so you can skip Gorefiend and Bloodboil if you're just there for glaives and don't care about the gold/mogs from them.

[@Salve404]

Thank you for the vid! Had a hard time finding solo-vids from retail cata. I want more solo content :D

[@SubtleFW]

Much more to come!

[@Salve404]

@@SubtleFW Sweet! I'm trying this run on my DK ilvl 354 atm. I'm having problems with council but Its mainly me not reacting to reflect shield. On the first boss however, if you summon your ghoul early in the fight, you will end up being "spiked" twice. This will make it so that you cant click the spike within the "click window". In my testing anyways.

[@user-zu3jn9ff2m]

Did it today on 356 ilvl dk. I found in comments tricks with jeeves and it was super helpful for me for najentus. Just got 4 spines and reset boss. I wiped twice on council. Btw we can strangulate malande during shield. I wiped once on illidan too. so just dont need to break elems link on phase two😂

[@SubtleFW]

Wait did you keep your spines after reset? For me they disappeared

[@apfelmeister1993]

@@SubtleFW I tried it today, and i have put the spines in my bank (jeeves), reset the Boss, pulled again and the spines where still in my bank (i took them out infight)

[@user-zu3jn9ff2m]

​@@SubtleFW Thats why jeeves really can help. Spines dont disappeared from bank. So you just loot 4-5 spines and put it to bank. And after just take them out after reset boss

[@MikeHawk-qk1wj]

had some trouble with Naj and council but managed to do it with Elementium Dragonling and prismatic elixir got the illidan kill and he dropped MH glaive on the first kill lol thx for the vid

[@SubtleFW]

Ooh nice! Dragonling is a good call. Grats on the glaive!

[@christophsteinweg7652]

Nice. How do I get the npcs target-name in the plater nameplate?

[@SubtleFW]

This is the WA I use but there are lots of different ones wago.io/Ylt7f99ac

[@Jar3tt]

Think this is fine to run with preraid bis or what ilvl to make it smooth?

[@SubtleFW]

It could probably be done in pre-raid bis

[@rizkyraya1955]

I tried the method on the first boss, when I used raise army threat the boss stayed on me and the agro boss kept sticking until the raise dead CD finished, what's the trick?

[@SubtleFW]

You have to be certain you aren't generating any threat from anything so they can easily rip. Make sure you don't have Rune of the Fallen Crusader on and the only thing you do should be DS when he's immune

[@Alex-c5i]

how are you getting stacks of acidic wound to drop on Gurtogg Bloodboil? I'm getting way too many stacks

[@SubtleFW]

It's a chance on hit so maybe I got lucky or you're getting unlucky, or both

[@vednaposoka]

How do you even solo enter the BT in cata classic? When I try it says "You must be at least level 70 and in a ride group to enter"

[@Introp]

create a private group in group finder, convert to raid - now u r solo in the raid

[@vednaposoka]

@@Introp Thanks! You'r awesome

[@Piupiumazafaka]

@@vednaposoka and y a idiot)

[@char5631]

game is perfect... you can reset the first boss and sometimes keep your spines (sometimes not as well), I died to council at like 16% hp, came back and when I pulled them they dropped to 16% again xD

[@zygomite]

The main pain point im running into is Council. I'm not able to outheal the damage after army/ghoul wears off. The only time I got it is when I ran in with army/ghoul and their hp bugged to 5% at the start.

[@SubtleFW]

If you're not already doing it, I'd chain CDs the entire fight. Use 1 CD at a time but get everything on CD as quick as you can. That'll give you a lot more longevity. They do seem to be bugged and frequently start the fight at low hp though

[@Lenz2371]

Can DKs wear the Glaives and you can solo it? Or do you need to do it as warrior/Rougue.

[@garrymullins]

According to wowhead, Death Knight was added to the Warglaives in Cata.

[@SubtleFW]

Yah dk can use them

[@snieznybalwan]

Hmm I always thought that Najentus is optional? Is there a door that's tied to him being unalive?

[@SubtleFW]

The gate out of the tunnel is closed until you kill him AFAIK

[@Jar3tt]

Do you skip reliquary? or doable?

[@SubtleFW]

Reliquary I skip. I think phase 2 is technically doable but it would take me so long I'd rather spend time on other stuff right now

[@Jar3tt]

@@SubtleFW yeah just tried and was perma stunned by an ability. Not worth.

[@Introp]

couldn't get more than 2 spines. still getting threat for deathstriking it seems. Resummoned ghoul cant take aggro before next bubble and expires, army just whacks boss and no effect. tried like 8 times with resetting and gave up and blood worms for some reason do not spawn when hitting into shield

[@SubtleFW]

Were you using Rune of the Fallen Crusader? DS healing itself won't generate any threat, has to be something else

[@trynnicus]

@@SubtleFW was just experiencing this too, stoneskin garg rune. every DS gives like 100 threat, then it spikes to 38k. I don't have this problem with unholy spec, so it may be that the standard wowhead build has a talent that procs something edit: I managed to get 5 in one attempt. you need to stop your auto attacks as soon as you DS, so be quick on the esc key. that said, I still needed to cheese it more by putting the spines in the bank via jeeves and taking them out once the fight starts (they will be taken from your bags if they aren't in the bank) also, don't leave the instance if they are in the bank or bags)

[@SubtleFW]

Yah definitely gotta make sure you never do damage to him before you're done using the pets

[@trynnicus]

@@SubtleFW the auto attacks were generating threat even while the bubble shield was up, it's not just "don't deal damage to him" edit: it only generated threat in blood. had no threat issues hitting in unholy

[@SubtleFW]

@@trynnicus weird never experienced that

[@APNellyNelson96]

can only BDK do this?

[@SubtleFW]

Prot pally might be able to

[@herditama3945]

how many gold u earned from this raid? i heard they nerfed the gold drop even from bosses

[@SubtleFW]

250g per boss and 300g for Illidan. The gold was only nerfed for Mag, ZA, Kara, and the world bosses. Everything else I've done still drops unnerfed gold

[@herditama3945]

@@SubtleFW ty for the reply, appreciate it

[@notcak7504]

they dont drop for soth

Sad but true

[@doomzx8284]

why do u even need glaives when u cant transmog them? I have both of them from tbc and i cant tmog...stupid game

[@SubtleFW]

So I can look cool in Org

[@doomzx8284]

@@SubtleFW Lol...they should work as a tmog just like they do in retail, people would be more interested to get them instead of just wasting inventory space for a show off with low level 3 expansions old gear...sadge

[@mrtruthsayer7872]

When was the last time you tried to tmog them? Other Legendaries work so they should as well. If it isnt, then it's probably a bug.

[@doomzx8284]

@@mrtruthsayer7872 I tried recently 2-3 days ago, I got them on my undead rogue still which is level 71 atm from tbc, and I can't tmog them not on that same rogue or my human rogue on another server...idk but i see on forums people complain about it

[@gwallace5403]

I'm conflicted, the changes to paladins have me rethinking my entire gaming experience. On the one hand I'm a completionist trying to cap out a characters achievements but on the other hand prot paladin just feels like garbage now with how many changes they made. Death knights are so strong it seems like the obvious change but I've leveled a few DK's and they never get past 70, just not really my style with runes and energy....

[@SubtleFW]

Yah dk definitely isn't for everyone. The gap between bdk and the other tanks is the biggest it will ever be right now. If you really don't like bdk, I think it's fine to stick to prot pally and it'll start feeling a lot better soon once you get close to P1 BIS

[@azzido]

BDK is godly now. Plays alot better than before. Runes ist just cooldowns in a different way (as you can start out with multiple).
