Around Azeroth: That's a wipe

by Elizabeth Wachowski Dec 28th 2008 at 10:00AM

In my previous life as a raider, I was a participant in some pretty spectacular wipes: unfortunate healer blow-ups on Baron Geddon, surpise unstealths in the Suppression Room, and the always popular "let me target Golemagg from the bridge" accidental auto-shot pull. I was even the cause of one once, when a warrior paid me some much-needed gold to stealth around the Rajaxx event in AQ20 to get a coffer chest. It worked until ... it didn't, which resulted in a chain of eighty or so mobs chasing us to the gates. There were no survivors.

Gustav and friends have suffered an embarrasing death here in Zul'Farrak. Not only did they die on Gahr'zilla, but their bodies have been scattered around the instance, and Gustav has landed in the sky. Think they called it after this one?

Do you have any unusual World of Warcraft images that are just collecting dust in your screenshots folder? We'd love to see it on Around Azeroth! Sharing your screenshot is as simple as e-mailing aroundazeroth@wow.com with a copy of your shot and a brief explanation of the scene. You could be featured here next!

Remember to include your player name, server and/or guild if you want it mentioned. Please include the word "Azeroth" in your post so it does not get swept into the spam bin. We strongly prefer full screen shots without the UI showing -- use alt-Z to remove it. Please, no more battleground scoreboards, double-mounts, or pictures of the Ninja Turtles in Dalaran.

I'm posting from the past, bwahahaha...

Well at least the embarassing "wait, I thought *you* have the hammer!" will be over with 3.0.8 (or was that announced for 3.1?)

My guild actually successfully killed Golemagg by pulling him from the bridge on one of our Drunk Molten Core Runs.

I forget, does Gahzrilla have a knockback? Because otherwise, to quote NoTomorrow, "How in the hell...?"

Well, what we have here is a case of Gahr'zilla playing far too much God Hand, and poor Gustav was on the wrong end of a Dragon Kick.

First I want to say: First time I'm even metion on a site (mabey not that many beleves it's me becuas, why would I say this [like to been seen is the answer =) ])

Second (the thing that is to care about): I think the pushback was removed, becuas I don't think I have been pushed back while leveling my warrior (about 1 year later than this pitcher).
