Boglund said:People 40 manned hogger with characters they made 10minutes before they went raiding. People have soloed hogger for a while, but that was back in the days when you could get 80-100+++ dodge chance. I think I'm the first one to solo hogger since 2.4.3 I assume? I'm pretty sure I'm the first solo him since the WotLK patch at least. That's the most recent dodge nerf I believe.
Highest lvl I've attempted to kill was lvl 30 elite. Taskmaster Fizzule. 7.6k hp. We got him to 6k with 12 men, shaman healer agroed (fail), he got zerged, then he zerged me (i was healing as well) and then røsk which had no other healers and the rest of the group died. Then later we tried to 4 man him. With me as a tank, a healtank, 1 off healer and 2 DPS. Bøgadin isn't made for tanking, no first aid (røsk started 1st aiding me midways into the fight though), I have rank 1 lifeblood and also no AGMs and my 30 SP sword was on my mage, so we wiped at 499 hp-.-. It's easier to fight bosses with fewer people usually as it's easier to pull off better tactics that dps spamming. We tried to 14 man him later, think we got him to 7k, was a horrible raid.
No I don't believe anyone every managed to kill Doomguard and I doubt many attempted it. It's just something I guess Thirk came up with (think he wrote it) as the ultimate challenge, but I don't think you'll be able to hit him, even with 35 hit rating.
I'd have to admit that the Doomguard think is highly laughable, not sure what I was thinking when I wrote that. You'd need Halloween candies, 5 to boots, and whatever else you could find, and then you'd need to make sure you hit his back, it could take hours, but it may be doable next patch with the mana changes (but NOT worth it at all, it will take hours of your life and it's easy to wipe.)
Though, bog, if you get 40 people you should attempt it at least, see how far you can get.
