Nihilum have
scored another in their seemingly
endless string of
world-firsts: the Black Temple boss Mother Shahraz. Dang, guys. Give old
North America a chance, huh? Nah, I'm just kidding -- congratulations once again, of course! This only leaves two encounters left undefeated in the Black Temple: the Illidari Council, and Illidan himself.
As with the Essence of Souls, nobody really seems to know much about the fight, although the boss
appears to be a six-armed demon. And like EoS, they got their loot, with no bugs to get in the way there. Here's what dropped:

Thats just whack...if you notice its only 4-5 hours between the two boss kills (Mother Shahraz, and Essence of souls) and in that time they got to the boss, found out her strat, and killed her....they are just crazy!

They arent really figuring it out for the first time Gleb, they did this all before on the test servers.
Sort of detracts from the "this is a big deal" factor imo.

Don't get me wrong, I don't want to sound like Mr. Complainy Guy. But the never-ending series of "Some Guild Killed Some Guy You've Never Heard Of" posts aren't examples of the very best content on this site, in my opinion.

Well, it's gonna have to end some day; they'll run out of bosses to kill sooner or later.
Until 2.2...

...wtf?!?!?
they're clearing out the black temple like it's nothing at all! sure giving dnt a run for their money.

They probably exploited their way through this boss too...
LOL Sorry, couldn't resist. :P

@3
Then why are you reading this article?
More importantly, why are you posting on this article?
I'm becoming increasingly irritated with the growing number of "This story sucks! Post REAL news!" responses. You don't like it? Go somewhere else. Like the official WoW forums where whining about content is par for the course. I can't read a single article on WoWinsider anymore without someone either bashing the author or the topic. That's just not fun for anyone.
Wowinsider.com FTW :)

@7: Agree. There are plenty of other wow blogs. Don't like it? Go. Some of us enjoying keeping up to date with what bosses have been killed.

@2 Why did you feel the need to post mis-information.. PLEASE do some research. There were 4 bosses downed by nihilum in black temple on ptr.. what next you claim they took down illidan on the ptr as well??

"Nihilum just killed Teron Gorefiend (which one never died yet, even on PTR)" everything inc. Teron and afterwoods was NOT downed on ptr.

"They arent really figuring it out for the first time Gleb, they did this all before on the test servers.

exactly. If I wanted any updates it would be stories of a guild that did NOT play on the PTR.
Since they are just plowing through raid content, it's not that exciting. Where are the comments on how long they spent on an encounter? As of now, it sounds like they are just walking-in and claiming their loot. Gross exaggeration but these articles seriously lack content, akin to a 'first!' post on the official WoW forums.
