Completely off-topic - how about 7 mages in that world first Spine of Deathwing kill eh? First time I can remember mages being stacked ever. (May have been stacked before wrath, but I wasn't playing before then.)

Yay mages!

IIRC endgame raiders stacked arcane mages for Sinestra due to the ridiculous haste and mana return buff.

They also cheated by exploiting a Spirit Link totem bug. I am not sure that's something to be proud of.

fletch, mages were not stacked on sinestra that I saw. that buff benefited other classes as well as mages, although the mechanic with the crazy mana regen and haste did indeed benefit arcane for that 2 minute time period. Or 3 minutes. I thought I remembered seeing some fire mages hardcasting pyroblast for sinestra too. /shrug

The only thing paragon did special v. sinestra was to completely bench their shaman.

If Kin Raiders cheated for real, blizzard has shown in the past they will remove the loot and achievements, and it won't count. Either way it's nice to see mages being stacked for real, instead of other classes, that was all I was saying :).
