    Maybe, just maybe said hardmode would drop hearts to upgrade the chests!

    Hardmode? Right. They certainly can't add much to the encounter, so they would just "Maklamos it" and remove an entire mechanic from the regular fight (probably orbs) and then add them back in. omghardmode! Or maybe just make it so mounds don't despawn and you still require a tank swap...

    What I can't wait for is after the nerfs the floods of posts of guilds posting about how they killed Laethys, lol.

    Decoy,

    Is there anything we as players can do to help with this process? Post combat logs, fraps bugged out encounters, etc? It seems the players have better luck reproducing the bugs than you guys do (be it server-side lag, more attempts, or something else, I don't know).

    Hope you had a fun vacation! Don't let Cthulu bother you, though. He just wants to cuddle.

    Waves, I hear they are all the rage for raid design this season. So chic, and in gold? Oh, my!

    And if you get hit by a wave you turn into a gold pile.

    The real kicker - actual gold piles don't spawn of their own volition. You have to strategically place people to become gold piles and then die so the rest of your raid has somewhere to stand.

    If my first Laethys kill is a nerfed one you bet your *** I'm gonna send you messages and emails and UPS boxes informing you that I killed it!

    Typically speaking, a combat log is not going to be very useful unless the bug in question includes clearly incorrect or erratic effect values. Usually the most helpful "look, a bug" feedback is just a simple chronological summary of player + encounter behavior from the beginning of the encounter (or beginning of the broken mechanic) through the appearance of the bug. Fraps and streams can be also be super useful, since they provide us a head start on the reproduce/diagnose process.

    Is there an email or account we can PM these videos to? I am not comfortable posting videos to public which our leaders wouldn't agree with, yet am willing to help provide these.

    If that were the problem he could just check streams, or even worse, join in on a nice night of wipes.

    I think there either is someone telling devs to look at something else or unwillingness of fixing, whatever the issue, the community has shown a very big will to help and its not been successful
