The Chinese are prepared
Mmo-champion (again) reports about a chinese guild TheSeven, who managed to clean The Burning Crusade content in 52 days. It might not seem as much of an achievement at first, but it is. TBC was released in China on September 6th, which is almost 8 months (I think) after the rest of the world got it.
It pretty impressive if you take a look at their items: warrior in T4 and Karazhan shield, and a bunch of other guys equipped with T3 (yes, Tier 3!).
While I don’t mean to undermine their achievement, there are a few things to note. First of all, guilds like Nihilum didn’t know the strategy behind a boss most of the time - I can only imagine how it’s like for 25 people to not know what they’re supposed to do, much less learn to do it correctly. Also, a lot of boss encounters were nerfed in patches since BC launched.
Still, I’d congratulate any guild that put an end to Illidan. PvE is really not my domain, so I’ll probably kill him when Wrath of the Lich King comes out.
