WOW Exploits - Gruul the Dragonkiller exploit : World of Warcraft Nerfed Info

If you've ever attempted this beast you know how a single ground slam can ruin your attempt.

When your raid gets the message that a ground slam is incoming; drink a dreamless sleep potion, while sleeping you will NOT get thrown around.

You can use the cheap pots even and the cooldown will be ready by the time another ground slam is due.


Work this into your plan and have everyone positioned 20yds away from eachother at all times. You can even have places for your melee dps to stand and pop a pot.

Wish I could test this, but we dont have enough 70s in the guild, let alone decently geared ones.

yea am not in a raiding guild but maybe somehere is

Blizzard intends to stabilize the encounter somewhat as the fight is currently based on luck.

Can premium members say yay or nay to this being moved to a confirmed section.

I know it works while IN mid air! it completely stops you but dunno about before I shall try!!!

/confirmed, it works, so /yay

works but id advise against it... save the pot cooldown for a health pot.
you have to time the dreamless sleep pot exactly and his shatters bug a lot and come at random times. plus. if youre a healer, youre taken out of the fight and cant heal the tank

Vael was based on luck too and blizzard never changed it.

ill admit vael was based on luck, but the boss was only hard if you had bad luck. the way gruul was, the boss was impossible unless you had amazing luck (or an incredibly geared/organized team).

hes been nerfed though, shatter hits for between 1-3k from what ive seen, and ive heard he has less health. plus, he randomly bugs out and stops shattering/hateful striking.

Gruul is a joke now. Now Maexxna was a random fight.

it does work but like stated above, he is a joke. Out of all the times we went in (6 or so I think) we never had a problem downing him with every1 still alive. The only problem is the King with his 4 other mobs

you have trouble with hkm but not gruul..?

btw another way of avoiding ground slam is to jump as he does it.

80% sure this was patched.

odd percentage haha.

Can another premium member confirm this to be nerfed as well.
