So, last night Lady luck smiled at us, after a long time of getting nowhere, and Nefarian decided to spill the beans. Come wednesday we're scheduled to go BWD:HC, so I'm after hints, tips, tricks, helpful advice, or otherwise generally constructive criticism. Yes, i can handle the odd "Lolololol you havent killed Nef YET! OMG".
But thats not why I'm here, and if anyone believes i just posted here to
brag
about our kill, I say: A 4.0.6 Boss killed in patch 4.2 isnt bragging, thats casual. =P
So anything you can say to help would be greatly appreciated.
My character is in my signature if it is of any use.

Nefarian on normal isnt an acomplishment, but i know plenty of people that still fail on it.
Normals got nerfed for about 20% (hp, damage, timings etc eg. nef adds in p2 dont cast each 10s but each 20 or something and the cast is half as fast as it was originally), but heroics havent even been touched by the bat. So dont get discouraged when the difficulty level rises a lot more than you would expect.

Trust me. Heroic BWD is much more difficult than shannox. You should easily defeat him:)

I'd say this. While previously getting a Nefarian down would mean you were more than ready for Heroic Halfus, Chimaeron, and Conclave, now it's definitely not on the same level. I'd say go do the first three Firelands bosses at least (Shannox, Beth, Rhyo) and then you could probably consider yourself ready for it.

Did you down Nef now because you guys just started raiding late or because he was wiping you mercilessly? If it's the latter then H-BWD will obliterate you. Not to be mean, but for people who had him on "farm" the now 20% nerfed Nef is nothing like what it was before. H-T11 is still very much srs biz.

Thanks for replies guys, I'll see what i can do at our next raid to promote Firelands instead of BWD =D
I do believe i wont have to work too hard to get people more interested in better gear and Avenger's of Hyjal rep, but inside FL we might have our work cut out for us! =P
Thanks again guys, really helpful.
Reply to soccergenius: We started at 9, were missing 2 for about 45 minutes, got some guildies online, got there about 10, portaled for SW at 11, so no, we had a very easy time with him, and most of us have an iLvl around 355-360 anyway. Our first attempt brought him to just a smidge over 1 mill, about 1.5%, due to tank-death. (My guild runs with 3 tanks on 10, dont ask me why, never saw that happen before, but we got our kill, possibly due to dps failure at kiting adds.)
Overall i think we had 3 attempts, 1 success.

I meant late as in not when T11 was very new, not late as in time of day >.^
Good luck on your Firelands adventures!

He meant date, not hour. How many wipes total on non-nerfed and nerfed did you have?

We actually found Nef on normal pretty easy. Cho was harder.

And i didnt mean the time either, we were there 1 hour, with no-one of us having previously having done Nef, meaning that's how easy it was. (Tho I'm not sure if we all got the ach for the kill, but i think we all got it day before yesterday)
And we killed him the day before i posted this thread, with most of us in at least 1 T11, myself having 2-set, and i assume most others have at least 2 pieces aswell. To be honest i thought he was
very
easy, but previous attempts with my earlier guilds got us to <5%, prenerf. Most wipes I've seen is due to kiting, or interrupting on the pillars. One of our wipes were caused by too much DPS, our healers didn't have time to heal us all up to full before the next 10% mark. Overall postnerf, that wasn't hard.
