Boss Kill: SSC - The Lurker Below!

Last night the raid group I run with took down The Lurker Below in Serpentshrine Cavern for the first time!... And so our slow-n-steady move through WoW end-game continues :). Fortunately, it only took 3 or 4 two and half hour runs to get him down so that's nice - unlike Magtheridon - who we've still yet to take down after 5+ runs! We certainly don't have him on farm status but once you down a boss, odds are you'll have a 70% or better success rate from then on.

The fight itself is pretty neat once you have seen it and know what to watch out for. Our raid leader did a good job of explaining the various phases of the fightand also made sure everyone was positioned correct beforehand so that made a big difference.

I don't always live through entire boss fights but I was lucky enough to survive this time so I was up for the whole fight (I was on Soofie btw)! At around 25% health there were only a few of us still alive but we were able to squeeze out enough healing/DPS to finish him off! It was a pretty mana intensive fight - I ended up using 3 Super Mana Potion and used my Shadowfiend twice - I have no idea how other casters kept their mana up.

Anyhow - /congratulations to us! :) Here's what we got: (I think...)

• [Pattern: Belt of the Black Eagle]
• [The Seal of Danzalar] (DUMB!!!)
• [Boots of Effortless Striking]
