Rest in peace Paragon. Massive respect to my fellow countrymen and one of the best guilds in World of Warcraft's history. Had to watch this after hearing about the guilds quitting.. you will always be legends and the history remains.
Ternadil Bloody Idiot. The reason why they did quit now is be cause they couldn't find enough people from Finland that were good enough and at the same time able to commit so much time to the game during an raid tier, heard they had 7 out of 22 players currently that could commit to it. So they decided it's better not to force it, not be cause they lost 2 tiers to Method.
TheTripol What if i told you, that i heard this information from one of the Paragon player himself? Ok, it was wrong to say that "they are bad losers", when the only bad loser is their GM.
slimaneron ah? This was posted in 2014 how come it was 5 years ago? 5 years ago cata wasnt even here x). Anyways just said it was a normal play from hunters
oh yeah cata was that long ago dam. But yeah the boss was hard but the trick he used to desingage like that has been used way before this. Specially in Blade Edge arena map. I mean ..its a pretty standart thing since wratch tbh o.O
I still hate al akir. Nothing wrong with the fight, just that he doesn't drop his headpiece, shoulders, cape or sword! He has the most epic gear in the game!
It sucks that Cataclysm as a whole sucked because the final bosses of each raid were epic in their own sense. MOP kind of lost that epic feeling in boss fights. Except for the fight with Lei Shen the Thunder King. But yeah Cataclysm easily had the most epic boss fights. I mean this one for example. This fight takes place in THE SKY. I mean how awesome is that?
Santiago Quintas I hope fighting Grommash. I'd love to see them use his same kit from WC3 like the mirror images, bladestorm, etc. None of that whirlwind crap Garrosh did in SoO I mean like an actual storm or something like what happened in WC3. That'd be so great.
nbdb At the time you could only use disengage whilst in combat, so using it to get where you wanted to be was a thinking outside the box idea, today it is commonplace
shaardy qt Algalon was before they became a top guild, deathwing was due to the bans, cho gall wasn't the last boss and archi was "unfair" because method used an op macro. Remember that the guy i responded to said that leaving people out for the first phase was cheating
+tompatompsson method didnt use a macro, they used a WA. thats not unfair at all, paragon lost absolutly deserved. Algalon was their 1st raidtier were they were famous, they got world 2nd i think. And they also got banned completly justified. im not a method fanboy, bith guilds deserve their spot in wow history, but the Statement that they never lost is just completly untrue.
You guys made some excellent videos, they're exciting, well shown and educating. Watching the health bar keep moving pretty scary from a healer's point of view too :O
we sucked back in T11 but the tier was excellent. despite having quite a few bugged bosses, it took us a while to see them anyway. not really any "bad" fights in that tier. pretty much enjoyed all 12 of them until we got to twilight council hc...
PBG Dave While my guild wasn't able to down Al'akir even on normal and we only got 2 bosses down heroic (halfus and chimeron) i completely agree. So much fun in every raid and actually a challenge. this tier we're on now at least in foundry is pretty good as well but i'll always cherish Blackwing Descent and Bastion of Twilight!
Aaron Bachle i remember us struggling like crazy because we only formed in T10 so just getting 10 competent raiders together was a pain. we still had the dead weight we used to form the guild in the first place, but i remember after weeks of ballache we got normal nef/hc halfus down in same night and hc halfus was a 2 shot which was amazing. i remember how stupidly overtuned halfus was on normal 10 man in first week or 2. you literally oomed after 10 seconds on healing. broken
Well... I found this one the most exciting video from you in this content. Epic, quite funny at the start and the most enjoyable piece of teamwork, including 2nd phase (and, ofc, we can see that classes, which can take off acid rain, are prefer in your setup) and phase 3 , which contents all what you can want from pve video. Thx , gj and gl in next tier
This is one EPIC battle, in it's true meaning, with one hell of an epic performance as well as some incredible footage and editing - as well as a great soundtrack! This is the true, final boss of Cataclysm. I couldn't care less about Deathwang's adds dying on Heroic Mode. Most likely the best Raid Video that i've seen and extremely few even come close to K3rp's (Last Resort) standard. Very well done! Notice the silence up until the very last hp. That's a lot of discipline right there.
congrats guys. that was a sick disengage devail. great video guys. your best yet. but saying that we havnt seen the nefarian one yet. btw two steps from hell freaking awesome choice.
@borsfall do note that it isnt directly on the bar ... there's a little space between the spells (on the far left there 2sets of 3 buttons then a little space ... that's where the actual actionbar starts :D so it may look like its on the 1st Actionbar , they're not they are on a different one :D
I love how they have "Original" / 1080p settings for their videos, and of course what makes it better, is that they are pretty much flawless constantly...
I once heard Rogerbrown talking about how shocked everyone was for this boss in particular, because p1 was so broken that everyone just assumed that they would wait until a hotfix to continue progging, and back then the top guilds were very secretive so nobody even knew that Paragon had discovered a way to solve p1 let alone the entire fight
Just a couple of questions about the Hunter PoV (is it Kruf?) ... I see there's a Flask of Winds on the go, but what's the other, blue one? Also, at around 7.5 mins, he drops out of AotF, but I don't see a different Aspect appear, am I missing it? Hah! just realized, that was 3 questions ;)
@devah I mean there had to be some sort of bug on nefarian for feral Druids because on ALL other fights lappe (Druid pov) is boomkin, had to be fight-specific
Its really nice to see that cata fights are so hard, you need to come up with special strats to kill the boss. grats paragon on the kill, and good job blizz with the raid content
The disengage was 'epic' because it was timed perfectly so that he would be pushed off by Wind Burst and angled perfectly so that he would land right behind the passing tornado Squall Line. Pretty fucking awesome.
Well done! There is nothing else to say! I'm impressed to see how fast they have cleared the Cata content and what amazing skill these players have! :) Again, well done Paragon! :D
@xRobtheSalmonx Yes he did, disengaging in a direction doesn't need you to be on the ground, it just needs you to be pointing in the opposite direction of where you want to go.
@devah why were u guys using ~11 feral Druids on heroic nef? Was there a glitch or something were there dps was OP? Or has there dps always been that good and this is the only fight u could sacrifice that many rdps?
@devah even then I understand the bear form swapping and tranquility rotation, but it still doesnt explain why he was hitting 800 thousand damage, and your damage didn't seem buffed so it didn't appear as a boss % increase, I don't know the heroic nef fight so please enlighten me.
the fact that the hunter can do shit like that WHILE in a heroic 25 man boss is fuckin crazy, I mean I wouldn't be as impressed if it was normal 10 man but during a 25m heroic and he does that is what makes it really amazing
0:56 that disengage changed my life forever.
Rest in peace Paragon. Massive respect to my fellow countrymen and one of the best guilds in World of Warcraft's history. Had to watch this after hearing about the guilds quitting.. you will always be legends and the history remains.
+TheTripol lol, they were just bad loosers
+Ternadil dafuq?
Tobbe Laitila
yeah? they quit because they lost couple raid tiers
Ternadil Bloody Idiot. The reason why they did quit now is be cause they couldn't find enough people from Finland that were good enough and at the same time able to commit so much time to the game during an raid tier, heard they had 7 out of 22 players currently that could commit to it. So they decided it's better not to force it, not be cause they lost 2 tiers to Method.
TheTripol
What if i told you, that i heard this information from one of the Paragon player himself? Ok, it was wrong to say that "they are bad losers", when the only bad loser is their GM.
Now I get why Al'Akir has all of the minion abilities in Hearthstone. He has like 5,000 mechanics.
0:55 Paragon Quality plays.
not saing that it wasnt bad but its our everyday standarts mate :P
+André Fernandes it's was 5 years ago, so 4 from your post -_-'
slimaneron ah? This was posted in 2014 how come it was 5 years ago? 5 years ago cata wasnt even here x). Anyways just said it was a normal play from hunters
28 janv. 2011, it wasn't normal at this day. Just one guy from ensidia had done it. And cata was here, it comes in end of 2010
oh yeah cata was that long ago dam. But yeah the boss was hard but the trick he used to desingage like that has been used way before this. Specially in Blade Edge arena map. I mean ..its a pretty standart thing since wratch tbh o.O
1:07 best part
Waoua666 BONJOUR WAOUA
I find the switching from the epic boss killing and music to the 7 people waiting with cricket noises to be hilarious.
I still hate al akir. Nothing wrong with the fight, just that he doesn't drop his headpiece, shoulders, cape or sword! He has the most epic gear in the game!
Fucking masterpiece boss.
Cata was something else. Quite possibly the _most unfairly maligned_ videogame of _all time._
It sucks that Cataclysm as a whole sucked because the final bosses of each raid were epic in their own sense. MOP kind of lost that epic feeling in boss fights. Except for the fight with Lei Shen the Thunder King. But yeah Cataclysm easily had the most epic boss fights.
I mean this one for example. This fight takes place in THE SKY. I mean how awesome is that?
I shouldn't say as a whole, just the questing really outside of Mount Hyjal. Lol.
Andrew Rose
that feeling is going to return in WoD, i hope so.
Santiago Quintas I hope fighting Grommash. I'd love to see them use his same kit from WC3 like the mirror images, bladestorm, etc. None of that whirlwind crap Garrosh did in SoO I mean like an actual storm or something like what happened in WC3. That'd be so great.
Agree. Everyone else seems to hate cata but I goddamn loved it.
lol at the cuts to the 7 waiting people
At TBC Gruul was done by 14 ppl because the fight didnt alow to have more :D
@KimmoKM The boss is mute, he DOES NOT have any voices in game atm.
Wow, the hunter disengage. An example of why Paragon is the guild I admire the most.
Then you should watch Ensidia's Mimiron hardmode kill, some epic fireescaping disengage ;)
that is kinda simple mechanic, if you never used disengage to do stuff like that, you must be a one fucking dumb hunter...
It's not about the play itself. Its about the situation and reacting perfectly.
@@nbodeh4658 I'm sure you would have thought to jump off and disengage back you fucking pleb.
nbdb At the time you could only use disengage whilst in combat, so using it to get where you wanted to be was a thinking outside the box idea, today it is commonplace
This is why paragon will always be the best. Coming up with a strat to leave 7 players out of the raid for p1.
+Slvl and when they cant cheat, they just lose. lol
+Ternadil "they just lose" going by your logic the only race they've lost is blackhand
+tompatompsson and archi, deathwing, cho gall, algalon.
shaardy qt
Algalon was before they became a top guild, deathwing was due to the bans, cho gall wasn't the last boss and archi was "unfair" because method used an op macro. Remember that the guy i responded to said that leaving people out for the first phase was cheating

I remember beating this as the last player alive on 10 man as the paladin tank. Nothing ever came close to the epicness of this battle.
Amen brother. I loved TotFW in general, it just had this cozy feeling to it.
reactions are always amazing to hear xD very nicely done and the comedy in that was awesome too xD!
and as usual. perfect music.
I'm going to die in laughter whenever they show the members! Hahhah :DD
Best comic ever!
really love ur vids.
Great music and design
I'm still upset that Al'Akir never got a voice over for his lines.
Would have made the fight much more epic.
Still gives me chills... Remember this time ALOT
the music made this video EPIC DAMM
the random cut to the 7 at the entrance with crickets playing was hilarious!
I laughed so hard everytime they switched cameras to te 7 waiting. Haha!
I miss this period of wow. Mu favorite raid video
Young Devai [Kreygasm]
You guys made some excellent videos, they're exciting, well shown and educating. Watching the health bar keep moving pretty scary from a healer's point of view too :O
Tier 11 was the best raiding tier.
Totally agreed! Whenever I say I loved t11, people give me the weird look. I'm glad there are others who loved this tier!
The best fuckin shit
we sucked back in T11 but the tier was excellent. despite having quite a few bugged bosses, it took us a while to see them anyway. not really any "bad" fights in that tier. pretty much enjoyed all 12 of them until we got to twilight council hc...

bloody epic disengage there at 0.58. never thought of doing that!! excellent

meanwhile in the audience lol so cute xd

Who watch this video in 2019? :)
This is one EPIC battle, in it's true meaning, with one hell of an epic performance as well as some incredible footage and editing - as well as a great soundtrack! This is the true, final boss of Cataclysm. I couldn't care less about Deathwang's adds dying on Heroic Mode.

As a hunter I was drooling at that disengage. You guys are effing amazing!
congrats guys. that was a sick disengage devail. great video guys. your best yet. but saying that we havnt seen the nefarian one yet. btw two steps from hell freaking awesome choice.
@borsfall do note that it isnt directly on the bar ... there's a little space between the spells (on the far left there 2sets of 3 buttons then a little space ... that's where the actual actionbar starts :D so it may look like its on the 1st Actionbar , they're not they are on a different one :D
I cant wait to see Paragon coming back in full glory for the Legion, please do so!!!!
Paragon dont exist anymore :s sadly
bad troll is bad.
Kelebdugolog Believe what you believe but Paragon IS dead
A few paragon members came back to wow, currently playing in the guild Memento, currently ranked world #3.
Awesome Video as always! Great Work, keep it going :)
I love how they have "Original" / 1080p settings for their videos, and of course what makes it better, is that they are pretty much flawless constantly...
Simply awesome final phase. Amazing to watch, grats!
That fight looked freaking epic! I can't wait to try it out.
That was probably the single most greatest disengage i have ever had the pleasure of laying my eyes on.
I like the sound you put when you show the group thats outside the battle rofl
I once heard Rogerbrown talking about how shocked everyone was for this boss in particular, because p1 was so broken that everyone just assumed that they would wait until a hotfix to continue progging, and back then the top guilds were very secretive so nobody even knew that Paragon had discovered a way to solve p1 let alone the entire fight
love the transitions between the waiting group and the fighting group :P
One of your best videos so far.
can't stop laughing everytime camera change to the audiance lol
The Music track is insane! Its so nice to hear!
i love to see this video again and again and again... better then a hollywood-movie!
I'm a bit saddened by the fact that the video does not include boss voices like some of your other videos do. Still, it was truly awesome.
Wait, there is a Diamondtear, a tank paladin today in a guild named S A N C T U M. Is he the same?
Any chance we could get a hint as to what addons were being used by the hunter? That damage text was awesome.
@darkwyvern2
Copyright issues.
Else, it costs so much to make it and uh...there's a lot of people who don't play with sound on.
Just a couple of questions about the Hunter PoV (is it Kruf?) ...
I see there's a Flask of Winds on the go, but what's the other, blue one?
Also, at around 7.5 mins, he drops out of AotF, but I don't see a different
Aspect appear, am I missing it?
Hah! just realized, that was 3 questions ;)
@devah I mean there had to be some sort of bug on nefarian for feral Druids because on ALL other fights lappe (Druid pov) is boomkin, had to be fight-specific
This will most likely be my favorite video of Cataclysm raiding. Awesome fight. Awesome footage. /Bow
This has got to be one of the greatest kill videos of all time. Bring back Paragon 25 man!!!
@Codint365 its a part of his ui, he uses some form of tukui, and the font comes with it
whats the name off the addon who is the hunter using on the left side to see the raid group? pls answer
Masterpiece! epic video and music!!!
Its really nice to see that cata fights are so hard, you need to come up with special strats to kill the boss. grats paragon on the kill, and good job blizz with the raid content
Where do they find all this awesome music? It's so fucking awesome!
I like how the hunter was able to use a 4hour cooldown during the filming :P
how is that song called in the beginning? its great for video's like this, please tell me.
The disengage was 'epic' because it was timed perfectly so that he would be pushed off by Wind Burst and angled perfectly so that he would land right behind the passing tornado Squall Line. Pretty fucking awesome.
Well done! There is nothing else to say! I'm impressed to see how fast they have cleared the Cata content and what amazing skill these players have! :)
Again, well done Paragon! :D
@xRobtheSalmonx Yes he did, disengaging in a direction doesn't need you to be on the ground, it just needs you to be pointing in the opposite direction of where you want to go.
anyone know the font addon that the hunter was using? loved it. And the rogue's UI
sorry if this question sounds stupid but what's different from the normal mode on the 2nd and third phase? Couldn't see anything that changed :S
Anyone know what add-ons the Holy Paladin uses? I love his button-setup!
I'm just screaming with laughter each time you show the people watching, so funny.
Holy shit! That disengage at 1:01 was PERFECT!
Had to watch after preach mentioned this
Guys whats the song at 6:35 till the end.. all the other songs i know cause of you but this one is still a mystery plz answer!!!!!:)) TY in advance.
What combat text is the hunter using. Please help! And what font is it if you know that to?
@InfernalArrows The lightnings in phase one only hit once on normal. In this video they hit every 0.5 seconds and stay for 24 seconds.
0:59 -
Al'Akir: Take This Devai... Time For You To Fall For Your Death!
Devai: I'll Show You Mon... It's Time To *Puts on Sunglasses* Disengage....
@Bresso280 thx, but i have nice damage too, but i don't have that font, can i upload various type of fonts?
Essa guild .... nem tenho palavras para descrever o tamanho disso
Do dps warriors exist at all now ? I havent played the game since end of TBC when i raided Swp and they sure had a great value back then.
Whats the name of the addon that let you see your char in a small screen when you sometimes can't see it...like in 5:00
Awesome movie Paragon. What song is this, I want it badly?! :P
did Devai get did a race change?
well congrats guys, you inspire me to raid and to get better at it. : )
Whats the name of the add on which changes your damage font? pls i need it^^
what is the name of the hunters unitframes and casting bar? it looks so sexy! plz answer :D
1:07 I laughed so hard... xD
Best guild ever, greetings from Serbia !
Поздрав !
@devah why were u guys using ~11 feral Druids on heroic nef? Was there a glitch or something were there dps was OP? Or has there dps always been that good and this is the only fight u could sacrifice that many rdps?
I notice how there was a Stormling still alive in Phase 3. Were you guys trying for Four-Play or did you just forget about it?
@devah even then I understand the bear form swapping and tranquility rotation, but it still doesnt explain why he was hitting 800 thousand damage, and your damage didn't seem buffed so it didn't appear as a boss % increase, I don't know the heroic nef fight so please enlighten me.
what's the addon which shows % of hit next to the rating when rogue was looking at loot?
@Joaze Do u need an addon to be able to change the font?
whats the name of the addon the hunter uses to change the way hit hits say looks like thir writen out
what addon is that hunter using for his scrolling combat text? anyone know? awesome disengage too!
Haha awesome strategy for space and etc, gj guys. Just 1 thing, whats the name of the hunters UI?
What an Epic fight!!! All i can say is WOW! in Awe right now!!
Very cool video, the part with the waiting ppl is the best :D
the fact that the hunter can do shit like that WHILE in a heroic 25 man boss is fuckin crazy, I mean I wouldn't be as impressed if it was normal 10 man but during a 25m heroic and he does that is what makes it really amazing
lol great editing, thanks for reaction and loot show :) Grats again guys!
this video is fucking epic , whoever edited this shit was the real OP
whats the name of that dramatic music? I really like it :p
Is one of the DKs playing DW-Unholy? O.o
Whats the name of this epic song??
What is the addon, Diamondtear (the paladin) uses wich shows him that POWER message?
