damn necro
Damn pointless post.
This thread is in no way a necro.
Looking back, it was like a 7 month necro. But considering the information is still relevant (the topic is still about epic fails), and no one else noticed it.

And if the person responsible for the necro had started a new thread there would be people yelling "OMG threadz alreddy 4 dis stuffz!11!"
On-topic: Last night got home from work, a bit drunk, and my sister goes "Ooh, good. Log on, we need a tank for PoS". Sounds like a great idea, (my warrior is fury MS and I want the tyrannical beheader) so off we go.
First: I ran through the first caster+skelly pack on the ramp without even noticing and straight into the pat. Wipe.
Second: Forgot about the pat, dodged the first pack, charged up the first big skelly mob, pat eats group. Wipe.
Third: Get to Garfrost, everything going smooth, little skelly health bars disappearing....didn't occur to me that they'd run off and aggro'd onto the mage. I thought they were dead. We didn't wipe, but only because my guildies are freakin' awesome.
Fourth: Ran off into the geist ambushers that had already spawned. Not needing to pick them all up, I did anyway. Healer caught up just as I died. Again, awesome guildies downed them.
Fifth: We rocked at the first pack of mobs on the ramp after Ick and Krick. We
sucked
at the second pack. Slight accidental bodypull from the shammy, which turned into a wipe as I was drunk and not fast enough to grab them properly.
Sixth: Wiped in the tunnel. Twice. My fault. I don't even know what I was doing.
Seventh:
Finally
get to Tyrannus. I've remembered to tell them about the bug with the mobs in the cave, so we're nowhere near that. Tyrannus jumps down, I charge, Tyrannus re-mounts (WTF?) and proceeds to fly around on Rimefang and throw snow at us 0.o
Deliberate wipe to reset as it was bugged. The fail?
We release, I'm the first one back in. Somehow he's still not reset yet and he one-shots me as I zone in. While I'm typing "Don't come in yet" the mage and healer zone in. One-shotted. Turns out one of the shammies had ankh'd and, although the tunnel mobs had reset, the boss hadn't. He had to die again to reset it properly.
I don't think I have ever failed that hard in a single place. EVER. On the plus side, I got the axe :D

DKs in holy paladin gear.
Blood DKs not tanking in frost presence.
DKs in general.
Hunters/rogues misdirecting to the holy paladin because he "looked like a tank"

Healers who let tanks sit at 5% health while they sit between Northrend Beast phases...wondering why they received no healed (I literally had to Rune Tap to keep myself alive through the Gormok bleed ticks).

You mean heals.
Why not ask for a HoP from a paladin?

It's not that no one else noticed it, I was
glad

I got an epic fail. we made a grp for the undying naxx 10 achi. we do the dance boss (we got smoke on ground) so we pass the worst part of it. we go on with the spider wing cuz it's fast and easy. 1st boss down with no problem, 2nd boss, Grand Widow Faerlina we kill all the adds the boss has. at 20% hp a pally don't watch his threat(we did tell him to slow down on dps cuz tank is loosing aggro.) and after an auto swing atk the pally takes aggro while she is in frenzy and he hugs the floor. best part is that the week before he was one out of 8 ppl who yelled at a mage who made a mistake on KT after almost doing undying, I was the only one who didn't yell in chat at him, cuz yelling won't help us get the achi because we did die on a boss.
Moral: don't blame someone else if you can't do better :)
Relax, it's a game. if you can, just laugh at the situation how stupid is went (if it was something bad timing caused,'els /ignore the random ppl and move on/kick)

I got a whisper from a guildmate, who was wondering if I could help her son's guild take down Flame Leviathan. They'd been wiping, and didn't really know the strats yet, because they were pretty new to the game. I thought, "sure, I come in, help a bunch of kids, score major bonus points with the guild, it will all be awesome."
So I join their vent channel, and while heading over to the staging grounds, give them a quick rundown on the five roles, wearing high iLevel gear, and how to down FL quickly. The kids are bright, and they pick up on what I'm saying really quickly, asking smart questions, that kind of thing. They're obviously intelligent, they just don't know the fight.
We pull.
"WARNING: FREYA'S WARD ACTIVE! WARNING: MIMIRON'S INFERNO ACTIVE!"
Oh crap. The reason the kids were wiping was because they'd left TWO DAMN TOWERS UP!
One wipe, and one quick trip to knock out the towers later, we downed Flame Leviathan on the next try.

The point was I had like 1000 health. Healers shouldn't even remotely be allowing that to happen during downtimes, HoP or not.

Did a RFC run on my shaman earlier today. I zoned in, but before I could say "Hello", the paladin tank had already taken off and started on the first group of mobs. We all catch up, and he basically zergs his way though the instance, but we manage to keep up. Once we get to the end boss (Tagraman or whatever), he aggros the boss before we're ready, but we down him fine. The Crystalline Cuffs drop.
He needs them AND wins them, then aggros a nearby pack of orcs, and drops group, before we have time to say "WTF?"
But me and the hunter's pet (shaman tank and ravager FTW :P) tank them, and then we all leave.
I thought it was funny that he would ninja a low level dungeon item that's BoP. He'll get like, 2 gold out of it.

Point of Heroics is to gear up. Don't like the chances of ending up with "low gearscore" people? Don't do Heroics.
You'll loose 2 Frost Badges but hey, at least you can gain some Badges raiding with "high gearscore" people. Assuming you meet the 5k+ requirements for ToC10.
Anyways, GS-hate aside. I haven't had epic fails in a while. Last time was while on my priest and I decide to bubble/renew the tank as he was running through the Iron Crucible (the one with all the Slag mobs) room in HoL. ^^;
