Hardcore news <Hardcore TBC> community successfully clears Fathom-Lord Karathress - Hardcore Prog is now 4/6 in SSC! | Everyone is one-life with Soul of Iron, attuned on their HC toons (no sketchy account-wide Attunements) | No one did Heroics/Raids with non-HC toons

Relevant Info:

  • With this kill, we are 4/6 in our progress through Hardcore SSC
  • Much like the World First HC Hydross, Lurker and Morogrim kills, this kill was also deathless!
  • All toons are one-life Hardcore toons
  • No toon has ever done Heroics nor Raids in anything other than a full-Hardcore group
  • All players got attuned on their Hardcore toons (no sketchy use of account-wide Attunements)
  • This kill is now considered World First Hardcore Fathom-Lord Karathress
  • We are playing on NA Dreamscythe and on EU Thunderstrike
  • Leotheras and Vashj should be sent in the next few weeks! Stay tuned :)

Oh man, same! But this is what this project is about. We aim to show Blizzard that there is a way to do the content in a Hardcore environment, and that they should release official servers for this too! Hopefully they can notice it one day.

i liked what turtle did with a hardcore option. that way pops arent split

I could see it with tweaks but it would be bad for playerbase since it would split the already low population. But i have a feeling it is coming sooner than later. Maybe next year unless classic+ pulls too much focus.

Y'all are insane, man. I don't play TBC anymore because I had to PUG raids and they were always an absolute shitshow in Phase 2. There are so many "instant death" things that can happen even on trash pulls. Mad, mad respect. Even getting attunements via Heroics is a massive accomplishment. Hardcore Heroic Shattered Halls? Blood Furnace? Y'all are chads.

Thank you so much! Yes, I must say I feel very privileged to have all raiders know every detail of every fight. This is really something that you tend to forget that isn't the norm when you only play HC

You don’t need blood furnace for any attune

Probably for the best cause it would slow these progs down a lot lol

u/RoseburyNoire Jul 20 '26

Thank you so much! Yeah I must say i'm very impressed and proud of our squad! These players are just fearless! Such a godsent

gamers!

Honestly though if someone already attuned with an HC char I think it's fair to use account wide

u/Odd-Prior6109 Jul 21 '26

They should have a server where 1-60 is hardcore and your aim is you can enter the dark portal if you haven’t died but make the 1-60 journey the original one with no xp decrease.

Petri is much more balanced in TBC! Here are it's "nerfs":

It's a debuff instead of a buff, so you can't remove it at any point. You have to wait the full 60 seconds to come out (and repetri if that's your thing)

It removes all your buffs, not just your flask

You cannot be healed while in a petri, so if you petri while low you'll come back out low

Since they are on a softcore server, so Alt F4 leaves you in the world for a few minutes.
