Do Not, I Repeat, Do Not Kill Runty in Blackrock Caverns

Orion Ryder

2/14/2011 5:14:00 PM

While running an alt through BRC last night I had to guide the tank
through most of the place telling him what to do on the bosses and
during a few trash pulls.

I told him to pull each of the pups seperately at Beauty. Note: the
night before our new tank charged into fight Beauty and all 3 pupsI
then, so I made sure this tank did not do the same. I then marked
Runty and typed to ignore that pup. However he ran to the side and
pulled Runty.

Runty died. I did nto know what to expect and thought al lthe other
groups ignored Runty because Runty was just sitting out of range and
could be ignored. Anyway I saw the Beauty turned red and became
enraged at teh sight of Runty being dead.

Okay I still did not know what to expect. I figured the fight would be
a little bit harder.

Well Beauty one shot each of us one at a time.

Okay so new rule - never kill Runty. And if you do kill Runty forget
about killing Beauty. Just walk away from Beauty. She is not happy and
she will prove that to you in one fell swoop.

Well at least we moved on to the last boss and finished up the place
but no Beauty kill as Beauty was still enraged.

Three cheers for protective parents!! (Like me and my wife)!

OH! OH! OH!

That's interesting. I've only killed Beauty once ages ago (every other
group skips) so I might be misremembering but I thought you could not
pull the adds seperately.

I haven't seen the boss since 4.0.6 either so things might have changed.

You can in normal mode. In heroic you must take adds+boss together.
"Don't kill Runty" has been the rule from day one.

> I haven't seen the boss since 4.0.6 either so things might have changed.

I believe there's now two adds (+ runty) instead of three

Ah my mistake, didn't realise he meant normal.

Yes, I heard about that, I just thought maybe it meant the mechanics had
also changed.

Yes, although I find it somewhat disturbing that she only enrages when
one of her brood is killed.

But those other's aren't her pups.

She is just babysitting the other three for the Corehounds from that
last PuG she was in that kept criticizing her healing and saying to
her "Who the hell needs mana, learn to play". Then they left their
kids with her and typed "brb" and headed off to raid leaving her to
"guard" them.

She sacrifices them and herself for Runty.

Sounds like a good idea for a title from blizzard in the future as
people start getting 435 gear or something and can take the damage. If
you kill runty you get "the Runt" title. lol At the very least they
could give an 10 point achieve called "Runt of the litter"... :)

I personally would love my dwarf hunter have "the runt" title... heh

LOL! I thought that was a superfluous comment too. Since when are
employees not allowed to "upset" a pregnant co-worker? Being a woman
this really annoys me. I she can't take criticism, she should be on
leave or in another line of work.

Unless the altercation became violent, I don't see how her pregnancy
could be relevant. Physically accosting any coworker is bad (probably
grounds for firing), the victim being pregnant just makes it worse.

But if it's just a creative argument, her pregnancy should not come into
play. Obviously they're only mentioning it to bias sympathy.
