Quote:I'm not sure how meaningful this list is if you include past versions of bosses. At first, I was going to just reply with my own list, but all ten places on the list wound up being pre-nerf boss versions (all but one from the horror that was 2.0 raiding).
A list composed of boss encounters that no one can fight any more has a certain academic interest to it, but probably not relevant to most people who never saw all the prior versions and never will.
Anyway, I'll do a list of current version difficulty later, but here, in brief, is my list for top ten hardest boss fights, all versions.
1. Kael'thas 2.0.
2. Vashj 2.0.
3. Al'ar 2.0.
4. Mother Shahraz 2.1.
5. Leotheras 2.0.
6. Magtheridon 2.0, pre-hotfix.
7. Gruul 2.0, pre-hotfixes.
8. Hydross 2.0.
9. Lurker 2.0.
10. Nightbane 2.0, presuming the Blessing of Protection exploit is not used.
Ya i guess its true that its hard to evalute past and present changes. Its just that Blizzard constantly nerfs bosses so its hard to evaluate anything anymore in its context. But your list is somewhat similar to mine.
Just curious, what did you find difficult about Mother Shahraz? When we attempted her it took 3 tries and literally 20 minutes. But i am certain there were changes made to that encounter that made it quite trivial for us. We went in to that encounter with 325+ SR every member of the raid so we were well prepared.
