How does one achieve Heroic N'Zoth kill these days

UPDATE: I finally got into a group after hours today of nothing, cleared it first go.

I’m at 465 ilvl with decent dps output for my gear and I’ve been in about 10 groups that either:

  1. Have no idea how to kill it, call it and that’s the end of that
  2. Require AOTC so if you know the mechanics, you’re still not welcome
  3. Give it a good shot but no one has the will power to continue past the 1st or 2nd wipe then everyone just leaves
  4. Just recently getting kicked upon entering the group without even attempting boss for people that have AOTC so my time wasted completely

I’ve been trying to get just one kill for the last week now and my patience is getting me nowhere applying for these groups, what the hell do I do?

Now is the worse time to try and PUG nzoth if you don’t already have AOTC. Your best bet would be to find a guild to join that will take you along. Otherwise keep trying pugs.

Can you actually verify that is the reason why you got removed? Or is it an assumption?

I mean, I don’t think that you’re wrong for feeling the way that you do, but this is the inherent adversity you will face for trying to pug subjectively challenging content. You should consider finding a guild that still does heroic clears and networking your way into a guild or a run. The former being the ideal solution to alleviate your issue.

So basically, keep applying and getting into groups until you find one that can carry you?

He’s assuming.

He’s being kicked because he’s being accepted by itemlevel, and when he’s zoning in the raid leader is looking at the 0 enchants, 0 gems, bad essences, and only corruption being an IS2 belt (he’s -50 in terms of corruption).

Or he’s doing a pull, wiping, showing up under the tanks and healers in terms of damage and being removed afterward. He’s not doing “decent damage”, he’s doing extremely terrible damage for what a PUG would expect.

You might want to log these alleged instances where your dps output is “decent” because the grey/green parses you currently have will get you instantly declined.

After looking at these things I have to agree with everyone else. Gem and enchant your gear, they’re basically free at this point in the expansion, buy some correct corruptions. Also not finishing normal will be a red flag for a pug leader.

The simplest answer is: buy it.

Let me ask you an honest question. Would you invite a a 465 warrior, with zero gems, enchants and terrible corruption over a 475 hunter with gems, enchants, the proper corruptions and aotc that going to double your damage?

Not even double, probably more than triple.

Good point.
