Hardmode Hakkar and its potential rewards

Post by Abiozan » Wed Aug 28, 2024 2:24 pm

Greetings, fellow turtles! As you may or may not know, <Hard Knocks Society> recently did potentially server first Hardmode Hakkar, (or, at the very least, the first documented server first hardmode Hakkar) and a lot of our members were in a way disappointed that there's no title or reward for such a feat as doing it on turtle is way harder than on vanilla due to a few server specifics (mainly a phasing bug due to the threat drop gimmick making Hakkar disappear), as well as the lack of world buffs.

So, I'm making a thread in hopes of this reaching out devs a bit more directly, as well as potential community ideas if such a challenge should have any specific rewards!

Also Soulflayer Slayer title when, this took an hour of pulls to pull off.
Drop any ideas for a hardmode loot table!

I'm 100% on board with this! We recently started seeing what the bare minimum comp we can clear dungeons and raids with. For instance, we 3 manned UBRS the other day. I would like to see more custom titles and challenges for different types of hard modes.

Also, big grats on the hard mode hakkar!!! It might just be a server first. We're is still planning ours.

Woah! Me and my guildmates were talking about the same thing recently, looking for a new challenge after clearing Naxx. Unique rewards for Hardmode Hakkar would be awesome. In the same way that Emerald Sanctum has an Easy and Hard mode with unique loot. It is a tough challenge indeed.

GZ on the first kill!

From the 3 man UBRS and other ones we've done so far...I think we did ZG iwith 7...I can say it is really fun. They present unique challenges and require you to be on your A-game a fair bit of the time.

Hardmode Hakkar is a fight where all of the priests are alive for one, and the priests being alive gives Hakkar new abilities that make him op af.

For two you're wrong even about the no one dying part, as you can clearly see the rogue is dead in the vod lol

If you try to devalue stuff at least devalue it right, you know...
Also if its a 20 year old raid boss then why did people struggle with it on classic WoW

No, don't take away development time from patch 1.17.2 for useless things like this.

Its not useless...its totally in the spirit of Turtle too. They worked on patches and all sorts of stuff while we waited for ES and Kara 10. Software development isn't a zero sum game.

One of the new features of the upcoming big patch is literally a challenge about killing boars 1-60 and a boar mount, which had boars added just so you can complete it, if my idea is "useless" then I don't know about the boar challenge
