Is Mythic still the highest tier of WoW raiding?

I really just want to see the lunches.

Mythic is certainly out.

Liquid spent the first part of the week doing mega heroic splits / delves / mythic+ to funnel loot to main raider chars (and their alts, basically anyone on the starter roster has 3+ chars and can play all specs to near perfection). This resulted in first pull kills on the first 3 bosses in mythic. 4th boss was a nutbuster.

I watched a bit last night. Saw Liquid's Soul Hunters kill, impressive kill I think they had like 5 ppl alive. The next boss is pretty comical...its literally a heal check / DPS wall (and has a wall mechanic built in, clever from Blizz). The healing required is FUCKING INSANE and you can't stack healer heavy due to tight 5 minute enrage timer. They were super methodical talking about the math / strategy / comps after basically every pull. Fun to watch as an ex-bleeding-edge raider.

Tuning this tier is spot on, Blizz has done an excellent job from what I've seen so far.

Needs proper Latin invocations and to be sponsored by the Catholic Church.

Surely these LARP videos inspired the game? Tell me it did! [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Finally checking out Valheim. It might be best game I've ever played. I'm a huge sucker for procedural generation, and I really like how it's implemented here. The graphics and sound are beautiful. It's so damn immersive and stressful.

Its reset day. 2 more bosses to go in the race to world first.

Bravo to blizz for an extremely well tuned raid.

the suspense is terrible for all the hot pockets, it's been an outright massacre for days now. the wounded knee of meat wallet events.

I do fire up WoW for a month here and there, level toons up, gear them out with all the loot pinata things, then get bored and let the sub expire. hasn't had a good Horde focused story in years. It's just Elfquest 2.0

also wtf happened to their cinematic team??? TWW intro, to the hot mess that dropped a few days ago

Seconded, though I started the game when it first came out.

I haven't been to any of the biomes past the Plains - building took over and the constant raids/threats/etc.. took away the feeling I had when I first started. I hear the heavily modded game is quite fun and something I'm sure to get back to one day.

Valheim is awesome! I played around launch and it got boring. Also I built a giant tree house and it fell down because i delved too deeply, and that made me sad.

I don't understand how they're making progress on Pandemonius if they all play their specs perfectly.

But they are. Liquid went from 29% to under 1% on p2 today. I'm guessing Blizz is gradually nerfing the phases as they repeatedly fail the checks?

They are playing perfect.
