Phase 5 AQ40 - please release prenerf version of Cthun

We would like authentic vanilla experience. Pls release the ‘mathematically impossible’ version of cthun for first 2 months of phase 5, then ‘nerf’ it to the fixed version like you did in vanilla.

I’d also be interested to see if anyone can kill the prenerf version with modern minmaxing

Lots of us have asked for this, I even made a post asking the very same thing a while back. I doubt it will happen.

Be ready for lots of trolls flaming you for asking.

I don’t think they will but I wish they did. I probably won’t last long enough to see it personally but am curious if it is mathematically possible by today’s standards.

Top guilds are putting out insane numbers that would destroy Naxx already. Cthun would be toast.

I remember Yogg+0 being Mathematically impossible. After Starts got it, 3 more kills came in like 48 hours.

honestly your wish will be amazing but i think you will never see that because blizzard do only things for casual… and if they released c’thun prenerf the larg majority of the wow players will cry a lot…

unfortunaly :cry: we will see again how the blizzard community is toxic… :frowning:

personnaly i stoped wow classic and its done between blizzard and me i cant support more of blizzard dumb things…

Even if you had the dps to kill it, the bugged tentacles would make it impossible.

I thought part of the problem was just the mechanics themselves were not working properly, like being hit while in the stomach or some crap

Sorry but they don’t just magically have the pre-1.12 versions of bosses. They’d have to go in and manually re-tune the data they have and this could lead to a number of issues, if you want super hard raids I’d say go to private servers or stop min/maxing.

Nah those were fixed. All bugs were mostly fixed then after a month or two. A few top guild stated it was mathematically impossible.

Agreed, I want to see the APES types do this. Be interesting to see what they could do when they only get one shot at using their world buffs.

Just like they don’t magically have the pre-1.12 versions of AV.

looks at retail and scratches head

Theres a lot more wrong with Cthun than just being mathematically impossible. The boss was bugged.

You are basically asking for blizzard to recreate a bug, that they probably have no idea how to recreate. And even if they did… I highly doubt they will purpose break something???

It would be easy. Nothing in classic is hard

So don’t recreate the bugs, but do recreate the “mathematical impossibility”.

Would only make sense for Blizz if they hyped it, which in turn would only make sense if it were hard enough to be worth hyping.

They shouldn’t put the bugs back in. But I’d be ok with it being tuned as it originally was.

he was mathematically unkillable by the time/patch it was released
but with 1.12 gear and talents…and the neckbeard level of buff stacking
i can see him die

Cthun nerf was after patch 1.10 I think. Not far from 1.12. Most of the big changes were done.

Neckbeard buffs will fall off after 1 wipe…so they would have to make that count … :grinning:

Eh I doubt they are going to create a new boss man
