Method Releases World First Mythic Kil'jaeden Kill Video - World of Warcraft - MMORPG.com
World of Warcraft News - Method (EU realms) scored a "world first" Mythic Kil'jaeden kill last week in the World of Warcraft raid The Tomb of Sargeras after "only" 654 wipes ahead of it. Though Blizzard doesn't official count world first kills any more, many of the top raiding guilds vie for the honor of being the first. To celebrate their victory, the raid team and guild leadership released the video of the kill. Check it out and let us know what you think.

Because they persisted after all those wipes!

10years ago FF11 had NM (Notorius Monsters) that a server could not beat. I dont remember a post here with OMFG somedudes beat FF11 NMs or FF14's raids on Savage or whatever Extreme difficulty had for the 1st time.
Can't really compare FFXIV's raiding to WoW's unfortunately. 4 bosses to like 9 in ToS? Not a fair comparison. Extreme primals in 14 are considered casual content by most people in the community as well (maybe midcore at best) so really every "raid" cycle is 4 bosses which is very underwhelming. The "super" savage supposedly coming in 4.1, no idea what that'll actually do and/or bring, but honestly, anyone playing since 2.0 will notice that SE's "raiding" difficulty has gone down considerably over the years as well as the depth, getting lazier and lazier each one it seems. As for 11, yeah there was pretty good fights in that game, but at least you didnt hear about the "world first" Absolute Virtue kill or PW kill. When devs make something so difficult that even they wipe on, that's a sign of something good and should be the only difficulty of it imo.

I don't know if English is your primary language or not but I stated the reason. Do you know what persisted after all those wipes means? Did you try looking up the word persisted or did you give up on that?

I'm just imagining some dude on ESPN whining about how they don't cover badminton tournaments in the NBA finals comment section.
Aloha Mr Hand !
Probably because they get paid to do it.
Is a man not entitled to the herp of his derp?
Remember, I live in a world where juggalos and yugioh players are real things.
I guess 20 years of MMORPG gaming (started with Meridian 59 in 96) does that to you.
you read my mind!
incoming attack in 3-2-1-0
it even say the attack name...
it even say where to move..
and they wiped 600++ time ?? wow !!
how boy i was not raiding like that back in the day, we discovered boss mech and find a way kill them, we needed notice their attack patern and no big warning before casting attack either.....
im not realy impresed with 2017 raiding. it sound easy mode... watched the video completly and im not understanding how peoples would have trouble with it.. when it come to raid in 2017 it either wildstart of final fantasy 14 who got the better one with a challenge.
LOL try it for yourself if it sounds easy, Sir Hardcore. 600+ wipes for a world-class guild means easy mode...Damn, I'd hate to see the hard content.
FOR ME NEWS IS something from PvP world not 20 players vs 1 AI (NoMatterWhatDifficultyItHas).
Pve...is...it...was...and...it...will...always...be...for...plebs (who cant aim in PvP).
So, tell me now, why a boss with insane hp is Achievement and should be on main page of mmorpg.com ?
PVE IS FOR PLEBS. Case closed.
Why I agree that the addons simplify the fight by x10 at least, what you just said is really ignorant.
I'm confident that you have never raided at such a level otherwise you wouldn't say something, so ignorant.
Also you can be sure that among those 600 tries there are at least 100-200 where they wiped 1-2 minutes into the fight due to dumb mistake. Don't think that all 600 tries were almost kills. The first half probably were when the boss was at 70-80%.
