I'm not someone who likes to rag on Nihilum, but... damn. This just seems awfully fast.
Freehugz Jun 5th 2007 1:14PM
wow. maybe they know something we don't?
Sblaze Jun 5th 2007 1:14PM
Awesome, grats to the crew. Can't wait to get some details about the fight even though it'll be months before I get to see it myself.
Kaylek Jun 5th 2007 1:14PM
I should clarify.
First off, I offer a big congratulations if there weren't any shenanigans.
However, it was done SO fast that it makes me suspicious, and I suspect there'll be an Illidan buff either way. But still, grats on stomping a new instance right out of the gate.

http://www.worldofraids.com/#4452 Eliah there are some pictures. Also Nihilum site crashed.....
Ugkul Jun 5th 2007 1:25PM
Congrats to Nihilum! DOn't think there's much to be suspicious about, especially since I think the whole raid has elixirs to give them a major advantage.

Big GZ's all around.
And damn, look at the stat's on that staff. 0_o
Rylia Jun 5th 2007 1:27PM
Apparently they are prepared
X Jun 5th 2007 1:31PM
They are good but it's not sucpisious if you check out there website they make it clear they raid around 8+ hours a day usually more if you raided that much you'd probably be on the 2nd or 3rd boss of bt now even not being as good as those guys.
Chris Jun 5th 2007 1:35PM
Also, the required their guildies to get in to Beta and raided 8 hours a day there from the time the patch was on the PTR. So, good for them but get a life....seriously. In the grand scheme of things putting "first to clear Black Temple" is a pretty crappy life achievement. I would rather be stuck in KZ having fun and a real life than what these people do.
Andrew Jun 5th 2007 1:38PM
This is ridiculous. get.a.life.people
Strumgarde Jun 5th 2007 1:42PM
So what is next for them? Put BT on farm status? Go back and finish off Archimonde? (or did they do that already?) Start a "Life after Illidan" series of articles?
/shrug
P.S. Grats!
Jenet Jun 5th 2007 1:44PM
/cue the people who talk down on the people who tell them to get a life in 3...2...
/Please ask the "get a life noobs" people to get ready. they're back in 5 minutes.

this has inspired me.
i'm quitting my job so i can play 14 hours a day. i'm sure my wife and kids will be cool with it.

So you really can kill him.
Is it just me, or does it seem like there's going to be nobody left for future Warcraft games? No more Vashj, no more Kael'thas, I don't know what happens to Akama, but I don't see him in that screenshot. And what about Maiev? Kel'thuzad is killed, but he'll be back. And you know we're going to be able to kill Arthas eventually.
So that leaves Kil'jaeden and whatever's left of Sargeras, and a few Old Gods and the 3 remaining elemental lieutenants (Al'akir, Neptulon, and Therazane), and Deathwing. And then that's all the bad guys in the Warcraft universe.

@6 What raid doesn't have the group with full elixirs???
and *yawn to world firsts. do a real life world first, then i'll applaud you.
Corrodias Jun 5th 2007 1:46PM
A big congratulations to Nihilum! But now what? I expect they'll farm the Black Temple for a while, but what do they do -after- the freshness has worn off?
native Jun 5th 2007 1:48PM
@12.
good timing ;)
and i'm not saying that its "wrong" or anything. but being the first to defeat illidan isn't "winning" the game. the game is myriad things to millions of people.
and its undeniable that this is a ludicrous time committment for the vast majority of players.
no judgement in that. just reminding that we don't all need to aspire to the goals Nihlium sets for its guild.
ross.brownfield Jun 5th 2007 1:53PM
@14 It's a fake universe... they can just make up new people to kill. Pretty simple really.
HiWay Jun 5th 2007 1:53PM
that staff is ridiculous. I want it. NOW
and @14 .. yeah, so? thats how you finish a game and move on to WoW 2 or World of Starcraft in a few years.
