It was the start used to bypass the Rumbler which no one could beat so they could continue on in the zone getting loot from the names past the Rumbler (oh and the two entire floors past it).

It was a "strat" because every guild was doing it. Thankfully, Vaga never saw the Rumbler while I was there and CL hadn't either. RNG for the win. That doesn't mean plenty of guilds was getting it and was /yell'ing it first pull without even trying it because they knew it was "impossible" and "everyone" is just yelling him anyway.

Forgive me if thinking yelling in epic instances was changed to get around that and not to regen more mana while killing a Blood Colossus.

I think I've proven, beyond any reasonable doubt, that there is always another guild.

Thanks for your concern though.

At least it will make it so people can't gimp the unicorn by yelling that. And I doubt the Rumbler will be that hard to deal with still.

Now how does a ranger get there without ghosting =p

That or taking a 1 day lock out for fighting there and zoning out =p

Also

Did they really prevent yelling and not fix the encounter ? So is everyone suppose to zone out or something =p. Sounds like the game is in great shape =p
