Ready Check (http://www.wowinsider.com/category/ready-check/) is a weekly column focusing on successful raiding for the serious raider. Hardcore or casual, ZA or Sunwell Plateau, everyone can get in on the action and down some bosses. This week's Ready Check was inspired by reader Evan, who wrote in to tell us of some frustrating near-brushes with immortality.
Among hardcore and casual guilds alike, the achievement 'The Immortal (http://www.wowhead.com/?achievement=2186)' has caused nothing but a headache, even though finally pulling it off puts you in a very elite group of raiders. We misguidedly hoped that there wouldn't be a similar achievement in Ulduar (http://www.wowinsider.com/2009/03/03/an-immortal-in-ulduar-and-other-troublesome-achievements/), but 'The Immortal, Part Two (http://ptr.wowhead.com/?achievement=2904)' puts paid to that hope. However, it's substantially changed in difficulty.
Currently, you have to complete Naxxramas without a single raid member dying on any boss encounter within a single lockout. This makes for incredibly tense raids when things are going well, and incredibly frustrated raids when something goes wrong and puts paid to that week's attempt. We'll take a look at some of the things that can go wrong in Naxxrams a bit later.Continue reading Ready Check: Nearly Immortal (http://www.wowinsider.com/2009/03/21/ready-check-nearly-immortal/)
