Re: Whale Shark bites hard

Greetings,

So I decided to level an alt to 85 (I really wanted to stick to one
main but couldn't resist) and since I truly enjoyed vashjir more than
Hyjal I started there... I'm sure that most of you noticed the Whale
Shark swimming around the edges of the zone.. I knew I will not stand
a chance but decided to see how hard it can hit.. So I swam to it,
gave it a few ranged hits and it swam to me and BAM! one hit and I'm
dead

I remember seeing a huge number, went to the combat log and found out
that it hit me with 450k+. I was on my level 81 DK.

It was fun

I guess that it will be impossible to kill this shark.

While levelling I saw someone looking for people for the achievment so I
signed up. In the end we were 7 people, of which only one was 85, all others
were between 81 and 83. No healers, but plenty of ranged DDs. The guy
putting the group together insisted neither tank nor healer were needed as
the shark is supposedly slow enough to be kited.

We gave it a try (not expecting to succeed, at least not me) and we brought
him to 97% before the first player died. Then my pet and I was next. Combat
log said "Whale shark hits you for 49k (760k overkill)".

So that thing hits a level 83 character for over 800k! (Almost as much as it
has hitpoints, I think it had around 970k or so).

I guess we'll have to come back with a full raid of 25 or 40 for him. I
guess we should manage if we take him down a few percent for each member
that is killed :-)

Cheers
Urbin
