And now for something completely different. Just when you thought world PvP couldn't possibly get any better, someone comes along and performs the Zul'Jin Ogre Raid on Ironforge. Not only does this video feature a part of World of Warcraft that makes it unique among its peers (world city PvP), but the group doing the raid seems to be having one heck of a good time.
My favorite part is at the end, when they all break out into fireworks and dancing. And then the very end, when they break out into a very unique fight. (That fight, mind you, seems like even more fun.) It's rare that videos make me wish I could be included in that game play. But if I'd had an invite to that raid, I definitely would have been there with bells on.
Interested in the wide world of machinima? We have new movies every weekday here on WoW Moviewatch! Have suggestions for machinima we ought to feature? Toss us an e-mail at machinima AT wow DOT com.
One of our guild members farmed the costumes for a while from DM, and the foam swords were pretty much an impromptu thing. Someone just happened to have one and everyone could click and get one.
Sigh, I can't WAIT for the "war" event we're planning on Runetotem. Videos like these, though, make me sad since I've been conned into doing "trailers" for the whole shabang...

That would have been fun to do. But man, the TCG points involved for all those Ogre idols...

Theyre from dire maul, the TCG one is red

You are 100% correct. I had forgotten about the DM tribute run costume.

The foam swords are a TCG thing though. But I think one person just needs to get the Foam Sword Rack, and others can click on it and get a foam sword.

You the GM farmed that place for weeks to do that event. Was a lot of fun. =]
Bloodvein Jul 22nd 2010 1:16PM
Lol, WTB edit button... I meant "yea" not "you" ><
Anyhow, the guild is hella fun times. Seems to deter me at times from making machinima haha. =P

No, you mean "yeah".
Yea is like, "yea or nay?" Or "And yea, God spoke unto Jacob..."
Sorry, that's just a huge pet peave of mine.

Stabbed with your own sword.
Its PEEVE not PEAVE.
I don't normally comment for spelling mistakes but the irony of this post was too good to pass up.
Anyway ogres in IF is pure win. I want an ogre costume.

Haha, I remember when this happened. I finished a BG, zoned back into IF, and immediately got splatted by like 20 ogres.
My reaction: lolwhut?
Joe Perez Jul 22nd 2010 12:38PM
Same here! I was heading to IF for some auctions and noticed the "sea of ogres". Was hilarious
Nick Jul 22nd 2010 12:28PM
Great video, shame about the Cliche music though.. it has been used too often to have an effect :(
lolikitty Jul 22nd 2010 1:25PM
I thought the cliché dramatic music went well with the foam sword wielding Ogre madness, made me laugh moar :D
Great filming considering the situation, looks like you had a blast.
