Is 1 week the fastest mythic raid clear?

How many weeks is the average mythic first raid clears?

Naxx was cleared 4 days from launch in WoTLK…so no.

In the vein of mythic it’s usually two weeks and rarely three (Archy?). Usually they find a brick wall boss or two and guilds get to final boss towards end of first week, get experienced, reset, get more gear and go back in.

Edit: oh and EN was cleared in like 14 hours or so. EU didn’t even get to have a go at it IIRC

It’s a very pro guild that has been perfecting their strat on the PTR prior to patch day. Other guilds haven’t cleared mythic yet. Only 1 has so far.

Over 346 pulls and like 16 hours a day of raiding is not some easy content lol

They probably have liver and heart damage from how much Red Bull they were drinking.

Speaking of which, is Jaina dead now or she 'scaped?

Emerald Nightmare was cleared in 17 hours, if I remember right.

She escapes at 5%

We clearly haven’t punted this one enough.

by second reset is the norm.

Jaina was just before. NA first kill (Limit) will be after reset.

very rarely 2 resets (M KJ).

a lot has to do with both the end boss difficulty and also near end boss difficulty. if megatorque or blockade lasted a bit longer Jaina probably doesn’t die in the first reset (or if they actually fixed water elemental rather than letting it sit to not mess up the race).

how long should they realistically last against professional gamers that are paid to play and raiding 16-18 hours per day?

Method did 27 split runs during the heroic week. how do you tune for that??

The balance in extremely difficult yet killable without adjustments is almost impossible to walk with how these guilds prepare.

Not to mention Blizzard was in there tweaking stuff the entire time

Lol I remember this from 1.5 years ago… xD

I don’t like how the best of the best clear the hardest content in 1 weeks time. That’s just me though. I think it should take considerably longer.

How?

They put in more pulls on Jaina in 5 days than most guilds would do in 2 months.

And are at a significantly higher skill level both in optimizing dps and executing mechanics.

And have many alts to class stack nearly as desired.

Maybe, just maybe, it’s not hard enough across all difficulties and we should stop putting the new raids on the PTR?
