How to: tank Onyxia

[TheManBearPig676]

Use sheild block?, mitigate alot of the dmg

[Koroar]

I love this video wish you made on for every boss!

[Entice]

@Koroar Heh, I wanted to, but I don't play anymore.

Thanks for the compliment though! I'll probably be playing Guild Wars 2, maybe make some videos on that ;)

[Koroar]

@Entice Oh awesome! Sounds good =)

[ShePlaysIt]

@Entice You better! =3 And I better be with you! We'll tear the Guild Wars 2 game APART!

[Entice]

@ShePlaysIt Of course! ^^;

[DonDaviddo]

I did not like the music, it ruined everything :(

[SpiritWithinMe88]

I can't find the first song :(

[minasmagicflute]

The music is awesome! : P

[Gloir]

the good old days :)

[goreslam]

I don't like the video's music!! >.>' And I believe I speak for most of the people here.

[Entice]

@goreslam Well, since this is only my 2nd complain about the music compared to the 50+ messages I have received about what the titles and artists names are of the songs...I believe you do not speak for most of the people.

[master13o]

@Entice SPEAK THE TRUTH

[Pixelinaz]

Eeep! Almost forgot how raiding was back then, glad I found this vid! *nostalgia*

[HondaRulzz4]

i want to know the fight for mage. i cant find the video for mage

[RushedUp]

lol ur arms? i've seen this vid like 4 yrs ago and i just noticed u had MS XD

[Entice]

Yeah, prot wasn't that great back then....you only needed like 10-15 points for the basic armor & threat buffs. Shield Bash was terrible, too much rage for too little threat, so as arms I could tank for my guild but still PvP when I wanted to without respeccing :P

[RushedUp]

lawl thats awesome. but now a days warriors can pvp as prot lol

[1Kgod1]

still good strat for the lastest patch for onyxia at lvl 80

[Sillastrybarn]

I must say i love your UI..i mean its 3+ years old and still like it more then mine hehe

[rbubbaray]

this sucks half the video u dont even see the boss .lol

[xxxxChrillexxxx]

haha 4:20 someone left the raid grp xD sweet

[1Kgod1]

you dont have to switch to zerker stance for the rage, it can be used in any form, otherwise good strat!

[Entice]

Well, you see...this video was made almost 4 years ago. There have been a few patches since then.

[luxis123]

roflmao what a nab

[bojazidis]

whats the name of the song in the end?

[arkk1]

did you raid with swifty ?

[Entice]

Only a few times. We did ZG with him and he showed us through BWL just before we started raiding there.

Did you know him?

[Chewne]

Actually in PTR its open. im actually going to go tank her now as a paladin. ill tell you if anything is new.

[crownbari09]

they are bringing onyxia back as a new 10-25 man raid in patch 3.2.2

[GoGooseFilms]

Oh yeah

[boladi1]

I remember Classic WoW. I started playing in 2006, before BC. I remembered all this. Hehe. I still raid her today on my level 64 character. It seems like level 80s always ruin the fun! "You little nub 60's stay back, I'll take care of everything." Ah, WotLK ruined the classic raid instances.. *sigh*

[Dillon5224]

BC ruined classic raids....

but i am exited for when this comes out in the patch

[manderella28]

She is still and always will be a lvl ?? raid boss and yes she can be done by a group of 60-65's

[Sageondrin]

Enhan Shaman could prolly solo onyxia ez with spirit wolves and malestorm that let's you cast healing wave instantly

[thedeadwalkk]

a ret pally can solo ony

[letthebodiesfall]

this was in 2006 when the level cap was 60 and onyxia took 40 people to kill her.

[sizach5558]

where u lvl 60?

[sceneDOOM]

I hit 60 one day after TBC came out... FML!

[thatsmyaudi]

damn dude, sucks to be you.

[ayman1006]

wow dude, get a life

[Entice]

um....no, u?

[ayman1006]

that wasn't ment for you

[Entice]

then reply to the specific comment, not the video in general :P

[ayman1006]

i did lol :P

[dennisxlinden]

How did you solo with a Shaman?

(I'm not saying it's not possible, I just wanna know how.)

[D474Hawk]

to solo with shaman... drop totems.. deal dmg, heal, deal dmg and so on... what's so hard?

[D474Hawk]

soz.. ment to say it to dennisxlinden

[Vgrd123123]

So.. here I am searching for some oldschool boss encourter fights just to get remembered how fun it was in vanilla wow, and the video is awesome loved it, creds. Then i look at this chat.. " i can do that, while im getting done from behind and im 80 and they were 80 with 80 dicks in their asses at the same time " etc... STOP IT! people dont care how you clean your diches at level 80 or whatever PLX!11

[Incognito5x3x2x1]

jurasic park theme song

[pajl2]

i got 3 onyxia bags =)

[abyssal2]

lol my cuzin went with a team of 5 it was rlly easy cuz he was lvl 74,,a paladin,,warlock i think,,nd 3 healers

nd she drops nuthin useful trust me i seen the drops there embarrising unless ur a lvl 60 noob lol.... btw my friend almost soloed her he got her to like 54-57k hp(or sumtin around there.. he was lvl 79 hes sofar the best player by my opinion lol jk he quit tho how sad lol ( btw he was a warrior) idk how he survived but hes a genius lol

[UberGusMage]

too many lol's

you're not funny

we don't care about your friend

add a period or 2...

[laxscott368]

ye dud i wsh cud us engrsh btu aneewy

COL STRY BRO

[SGrock3r]

killed her in  3 min today... 4 lvl 80s 1 lvl 60, no deaths

[Arthasthelichking09]

How do you get Moving pictures for your char pic next to there hp bar whats addon called?

[vegetalikessprinkles]

wat lvl is onyxia? ive never done a raid on her yret.

[Entice]

She is a 60 raid boss. I've heard 1 lv80 can solo her though.

[ficklefack]

she is ?? boss with just over 1 million hp, shes a total pushover now, i would recomend doing it if you can find anyone else(not easy), its VERY fast, 2-3 dragonkin in the tunnel and then onyxia, it takes about 20-30 mins to kill her.

[bakkeboy000]

wonder if he got any good drops...

[slopong]

ohh ffs now ive gone through the freaking comments and ive seen all those stupid questions about his bloody addons. stop asking ffs its spam. and its hard for other people to see what comments are really interesting. yes its nice addons im actually quite jealous about it. i once tried experimenting about making my gaming performance better with addons but it went just all to a mess. ill maybe reconsider trying again.

[slopong]

ahh nice movie. as druid tank in BC i always like watching movies on how the tacts work for an new boss. and this was good and easy to understand and also from the tanks view which is good. one thing id like to know is the consequences of what happens if i do it wrong hehe. too bad i cant try this in BC just freaking waste of time doing it in BC. else than that nice vid. keep it up mate!

[antonolsson900]

lol i got onyxia

[doom9125]

what is the beginning song at 1:40?

[Entice]

Voices - Man with no name. It is listed in the credits at the end, like I've mentioned many many times.

[coyote7272]

wow kid, mods much?

[Entice]

lol, who are you calling kid? I liked my UI..if you don't like it, don't use it.

[wolfdemonboy2]

nice strategy

[InfernalBr]

Btw Entice, the video's songs are great. And you didn't answer what gear you wearing to tank him, any FR set in particular or normal Gear? If the latter then tell me which one.

[Beechkingair]

sorry i meant to say him

[InfernalBr]

Nice job on Onyxia. What gear you wearing to tank her Entice? And what's you char spec., Prot.?

[Jedidew]

he quit the game (guy playing female char) and durr hes prot

[Entice]

Actually, I was arms with only 10 into prot. Back then tanking was more skill/gear than your spec. Plus, shield bash was a waste of rage for quite some time.

[InfernalBr]

Jedidew:

Did i said or ask he's male or female? If you care about that I dont give a shit about what's her sex, dumbass north american teen nerd :D. Bout the "hes prot" did you read her reply? Or usually make ignorant-weakminded assumptions based in stereotypes :)?

Indeed Entice, it's about who get the better Gear and skills. Some post-BC pieces of shit (mostly don't know shit bout the Warrior class) still think only Prot. Warriors can tank bosses. Fucking shame this kinda pest play the game.

[Beechkingair]

Ofc she is Prot, i wouldnt let eny Arms or Fury warrior tank

[skatezero11]

Protection you fucking tard

[InfernalBr]

Pfft.. fucking stupid retard post-bc noobs. Are you fucking useless vagabond fat teenagers or just blind? Read what Entice said before posting fatass teen shittalk.

Oh I forgot, you DID read what he;she said and still acted like american mass-follower retards.

Am I the one retard after this dipshits :D?

[InfernalBr]

and you still acted*

[InfernalBr]

beechkingair and skatezero11:

You're both stupid fat pre-teen pests wastes of meat just like this kid jedidew. Make ignorant weakminded stupid NOOB assumptions based on stereotypes, or what your noob guilds or noob guilds around you do. Plus, after all of you have read what Entice said, Its fact obvious you are just some ignorant imature mass-follower random kids with no fucking own personality of your own, having that in mind just shut your shitted filled mouths up thats the best you can do ;D.

[kukundelop]

good video but ... bad music....

[Jedidew]

if you dont like the music, dont listen?

[asna23]

Hewt nf warrior you got there ^^P

[EndingFraley]

Lawl yea, I have recently stopped playing wow (70 mage Cenarius ) Too much high end raid drama. And assholes ruined my time on there. Haha but my friend wants to buy my character for 350$.

[AtomicFall]

O: Only $350? I guess you gave him a discount..I know a few people who've sold their 70's (shadow priest, warrior, and a shaman, I believe..) for like $500-800 @_@ I dunno. Seems a little crazy to me.

[EndingFraley]

Yea it dropped for me ( The book ) But I mean its surely not worth it anymore and the book only goes for about 200g.

[Entice]

Heh. I spent 3,500g to buy that book. That was before all the dailys and crap were in to help get money.

[Guitarhero2259]

that book is called Foror's Compendium of Dragon Slaying. Its a chain quest to get the Quel Seerar

[Xwind15]

the Sword Quel'Serrar is from a quest that starts off of a epic book found in Dire Maul, the drop rate of the book is under 1% and can be found of every mob in Dire maul, plus in 'dusty tombs'. After returing the book to a guy in the Dm library (north) The quest requires you to let onyxia breathe fire on the 'unfired ancient blade' (you get from the guy)and then stabbing the sword into onyxias heart when she is dead, after being returned to the library to forge quel serrar.

[kramspaarwen]

omg I can nubs r talking here. blizz has remade onyxia u can=t solo onyxia!!!! that sword is quel serrar old school blade. it=s a q that drops in diremaul last boss.

[SiSenior333]

Yay, im a war and i wana kil onyxia!

[SiSenior333]

What sword is that?

[Zeeth1000]

i think you get it from the onyxia quest requires warrior only i think but im not sure.

[Hunttex666]

Well if the tactik is that simple me and my pet can solo onyxia in 70...Maybe i buy some new healing gear and put "red socket" on 'em and i do "mend pet" cool...to bad that it wont work!!

[L1ttleJosh]

What is mod being displayed in the center on his UI?

[KikiDelivers]

I think it is MetaHud.

[AoEPally]

lol notice how in this video the mt is arms specced, i was wondering why she was not using shield bash...

[Entice]

The shield bash back then was still 30 rage, which made it useless in comparison to revenge, sunder armor, and the like.

[huntedhuntard271]

i started playin just when TBC came out like a year ago and im only lvl 62 :( although i just stopped being a supernoob like 2 months ago and i still havent done any cool pre BC lvl 60 instances

[Rafinius]

u probaly never will do lvl 60 raids as onyxia as its a before BC raid (when lvl 60 was endgame)and to do it u would need 40 lvl 60+ players who r bored and arent interested in loot as u can find better loot with normal drops in outland

[Entice]

4 level 70s can kill Onyxia. she drops like 150g...so 150 split 4 ways =)

[fhraelaok]

Karazhan is probably the funnest instance/raid I've done. But remember the game is for fun, so you get the Krazhan gear and if you progress well, up to Tier 5 and 6 and when WotLK comes out you can enjoy leveling and learning the new end game content. It's all worth it in the end cuz you had fun right? If not then maybe become a professional gamer for a company, at least you get money as a reward LOL xD ENJOY!

[thenamesbender]

ya i like to play the game for fun. that's why i dont bust my ass doing all the current raids and dungeons when i know WotLK is coming out soon and all the current kickass gear will be replaced by a green out in northrend lol

[harryc08]

nice vid but the music SUCKS!

[Kingnarknark]

I never got to kill onxy I started playing when TBC came out /cry

[emokid19890]

well, thers allways a private server to do it lol XD

[mmcrae47]

It sucks that wrath of lich king coming out all that kara gear for nothing.

[Doctorpwn]

Lol man, kara gear is nothing... try entering my shoes where i have t5 and when WOTLK comes out its gonna be for naught :(

[bertalmighty]

Yea all that fun playing the game all for nothing...

[joshparsons]

It's called Progression. You get yourself 8/8 t6 and you will not, I repeat, will -not- replace that gear until 78. And if you were good enough to get that, well, you're good enough to keep pushing through raid content and get t7, 8, or 9. Just to show it off again. A prick is one who whines that it was "taken away", wheras a good player adapts and goes with it.

[fhraelaok]

Yes exactly! Very good point Joshparsons.

I just want the gear to prove to myself that I could do it. And it looks kewl, as well as I will be ready to do it at level 80!!! Goodluck all!

[Xpalman]

lol @ kara gear...the only reason why we still do that hole is to disenchant """epics""" and sell the voids...

[imbasill]

Nono, only reason to kara is the badges, getting what, 25ish badges in 2.5 hours? =)

[ryguyl69]

i miss killing ony :[ tbc fucked it

[Gurk1256]

Nice vid, thanks alot! :)

[BigSity]

lol all i gotta say is my opinion of "eye candy" isnt a computer animated cartoon on a computer screen. well maybe once ur balls drop ull understand what i mean

[drunkenmunky99]

Hey can you link the UI mod

[Entice]

I believe I have already said it many many many times before, go look through the comments while I rate your post down.

[SuperColossal33]

antharas>onyxia

[taurus1337]

lol :D just pushing 1 button > 40ppl raid tacktik game play ???? u must be mad

[0000Chuck0000]

[EAChallenge]

one of the best ive ever seen!

GREAT JOB! =D

[xerrass]

Great Video. 5/5 ^^

Can some1 write names of all songs?

[WoWsafiraa]

2 long

[Entice]

Then stop QQing an watch something else

[WoWsafiraa]

sry didnt mean it badly good advice but very long

[surfbum17]

What's the song in the very beginning, before the actual video starts? I didn't see it listed in the credits.

[Shadowplaque]

I think it was Halo - Soil

[Ruthere2007]

clicker alert :P

[Syladann]

How come I see mortal strike on the skill bar...

[jayebee04]

It could be that he's made a macro and used the MS icon for it.

[Dragmore93]

nice vid i liked it how do you get your moves like that down at the bottom?

[fabinbh]

with BC takes 3-4 man to kill it =[

[Nathiestx]

god I would like to go at Onyxia but I can never get a raid group together for such an old zone

[Sageondrin]

what is the song called at 8:00

[AZNGoSu]

Come into My Dream - Froggy

[Sageondrin]

what is the beginning of the song at 1:40? i can't find it

[foxgentlemaenner]

nice work

[Nidinator]

Your Reborn addon is uber, m8 i have to tell you :)

Great tanking aswell!

[quiffyman]

were do u go to v onyxia

[dddddz]

pro. gg!

[stefan12396]

I liked it. Even haveing killed that dragon more times than I care to count, and the vid being over a year old, that was fun to watch (still even do it post BC now.. just not every week).

[ratedRsupatar]

Whats the awesome mod for the character portraits

[Entice]

I've told at least 15-20 people, please look at the video info or through the comments.

[fhorn4ever2007]

I think ur strat. with the wall was good - but also keeping agrow was a clever idea in getting to 100% then spamming her. : also wuts that song? sounds VERY familer (but being a DJ//raver i never remeber the songs ive heard or played unless i hear then ALOT)

[lleemmoo]

can i know the names of the addons?

[shademurtagh]

crap youve changed to interface so mcuh it loosk weird lol..

[timeofthehero]

Whats the name of the Addon your using for health and rage?

[mxslip]

Caretaker's Cape

[buzzerbeater9000]

what makes it so a pally or a druid (in bear form of course) cant tank in raids?

[Entice]

They can now, but before TBC, the Protection tree for pallys sucked, and they couldn't keep aggro at all. And bear form wasn't as good as it is now, and also couldn't keep aggro as well.

[razexxx20]

dude realy why so many for onyxia?i just finish her a week ago in 7 or 8 ppl,ofc is not easy but is good for loot and 25 g for player..u need only 1 tank warrior,1 dps ,2 palladins and a hunter will be fine or mage and one more random and u can kill her..btw if u gonna to ony or all raids just make with ur guild to be safe aand not ninja gays

[Entice]

Because if you notice, this movie was added on Feb of 2006...over a YEAR ago. You needed 40 level 60s back then.  l2read.

[shademurtagh]

yup now its like 12 level 70 she dead.

[Jedidew]

wow dude this was lvl 60

[jagkallasuve]

omfg, i love this vid :) cant u put out some other videos 2 ? :D

[Khorhiem]

Nice strategy, thanks for sharing it with us :D

[momentofimpact]

Not bad not bad

[darksheath]

that was a 5/5 vid.

so clear and easy to understand

[JohnTatterfield]

nice vid. why dont you play WoW anymore?

[SyoeanceSerenity]

Arms warrior tanking,. GG.

[Entice]

I tanked Ony, MC, ZG, AQ20, and most of AQ40/BWL as arms...warriors nowadays need to stop QQing and learn to tank.

[frozenlime]

You still got the WoW-spirit :>

[GREYF0X]

"You will get kocked to the side...."

ergh i dont think i will want to ever tank onxyia.....

[TorAsle]

It's np to tank Onyxia as a Warrior/Druid/Warlock or Paladin.

[lilsaint0]

Warlock?

[alanthegun]

Whats the name of the addon in the middle of the screen that shows Health and Rage in shapes like ( ) ??

[frozenlime]

It's called a HUD, and is most likely ArcHUD, which I also reccomend.

[pkp00n666]

ArcHUD

[jewishjerk]

nice spelling on "through" there buddy

[Entice]

yeah, I saw that a few months after I posted it...and I didn't keep the original file, so I would need to redo the entire movie to fix it.
