TBH, neither mode is particularly difficult.
Pre-nerf HM Soa was challenging, but post-nerf even Nightmare is a complete snoozefest.
While some of the encounters show potential (mechanics wise) such as Bounty Hunters, Fabricator and Soa, nothing at all is tuned to be even remotely challenging now.
Which is OK, since it's entry level raiding - but god I hope 1.2 tier is both challenging and tuned correctly for both 8 and 16.
Maybe wishful thinking, remains to be seen.
The fights have potential as you said, but right now its tuned so you can just brute force mechanics.

We could always make things more comprehensive by including a pre-nerf section i.e. include if guilds killed Soa/bonethrasher pre nerf.
Though technically they're not Nightmare, they were definitely tougher than the nightmare stuff after the patch.
your pre-nerf HM soa kill wasnt anything to brag about.. so why try and brag about it?

Oi. I'll see you in mists of pandaria
Èxi, horde shaman, illidan.
Yes, i have an alt character, because someone made me move to Garona and they had my name there. Don't judge me.
I too, am judging you for the alt character.
And for not coming to play with us. Jerk.

I will be streaming (with no ads!) a jugg tank perspective of tonights raid. We will be clearing all 10 bosses tonight. We got both titles last week, and will get them again this week since we sat a tank for nmm Soa. Next week we move back up to 16s.

Come enjoy our antics and various trollings as we make our way through this content. I am also more than happy to answer any questions you may have about the content.
We will probably also have a sorc healing perspective up when raid time comes around, I will post the link if this happens.

Zoom all the way out and keep in mind that the radius of the hit is bigger than the pylon so he doesnt have to be EXACTLY under it.
He still has to be relatively close though.
Try zooming in all the way and looking up to make sure you are under it, then take a few steps back and Soa will be under it.

once i get my computer back up and running ill send it to you on steam

Grats on the success guys, way to represent Iron Citadel.

-
You 8pandas short of an actual raid, gratz.
except we cleared 16man content (pre-nerfs) before you were even raiding
-

yeah I think im just going to only put on what I hear. **** hearing my typing
-
Laugh it up, made 200 dollars last time i streamed Just used it to buy a new headset.
No, the free one works just fine.
you get to help me with stream settings then! yayyyy
-
Yeah I pay for it because I'm partnered with twitch, so I can't make revenue without it.
lul revenue. Do i need to use the pro version of xsplit to get better quality?
-
1. No problem, its what we do
2. My stream is in 1080 now. Make sure you check it out!
3. Stop caring about us so much if it bothers you.
My stream needs to get better quality...
Do you use xsplit? do you pay for that ****? I finally made the sound better quality.

So did we. But explain to me how 16 man is proper raiding. There is no proper raiding in this game because everything gives the same gear. Delusions of Grandeur.
Not only does it give the same gear and titles, it is on the same difficulty level, ignoring bugs in current content (im looking at you jarg & sorno)
This isnt WoW, bigger isnt better. Until bioware makes 16 the default "proper" raiding size, like blizzard did for 25s, you cannot say one is different.
Also to those saying 8man content is easier, its not that the content is easier, its just a hell of a lot easier to find/maintain a group of 8-10 good raiders, than it is 16. Everyone in our raid group pulls their own weight, while in our 16 group.. there were quite a few who got carried along for the ride.
I will say that maintaining a group of 16 raiders is harder than 8, but until bioware gives us incentives or the raiding community gives us incentives to raid 16s over 8s.. theres no reason to and we will continue raiding our 3 hours a week.

Congrats. Figured we could follow suit, so we did a nightmare EV (16m) in 1hr 49 min tonight ... and got nothing for it.
did you have to reset the instance at anypoint?
-
i'm sure you have
if there was any sense of raiding community outside of us, ND, millenium, condemned and 1PW.. you'd know he isnt lying.

Just wanted to ask if anyone is facing same problem on Soa Nightmare progression. To people that downed him I have the following question: What do you do when someone is being chased by lightning ball and shortly after "eating" it gets force cyclone. When certain player gets force cylone, he can't be healed and is flying around map geting damage overtime. This is the problem my healers currently face: people are on 30%+ HP after consuming lightning ball and are instantly lifted up by force cylone. Healers don't have time to overheal them. Any ideas? Bad RNG or is there a way to prevent this? Ty in advance for any tips and ideas for improvement.
Theres a small window (1-2s of the throwing around) where they are in range and can get instant cast heals thrown on them, might help.
Other than that, it seems like its RNG.. or that your healers are taking a while to top people off after blowing up balls.

8pandas get world firsts?
now your getting it.
-
Well we tried to kite but without a target of target frame and him switching agro every 5 seconds it seems impossible without 5-6 ranged.
Have one of your tanks (whos doing bad dps anyway) spam alt t and call out target of target

Pandas brought pandas into this. I said nothing of the sort. I still like them.
Pandas? No ones talking about pandas..

I think its more than 2 hours but it must be in 1 night so definitely farm status. The title doesn't show up in my codex, nor does even downing Soa nightmare for some reason.
An achievement shows up in your epic enemies part eventually. Says Clearing blah blah blah in 2 hours.
Still dotn have nightmare Soa achievement though
<Cali Killed Nox> world first Unyielding title!
in Flashpoints, Operations, and Heroic Missions

its stupid, and we need to be on top of it. And we will be once new 16m content comes out.
Also you should level like this sorc we have, we accepted him on saturday, and hes already level 40.
I might be able to get someone to level with you, a friend of mine might reroll merc on our server.
