My Hunter Solo'd Molten Core

So, I decided that my level 85 hunter should solo as much content as possible. Well, anyone can solo the level 15-60 5man dungeons, so I skipped those. I decided to start at Molten Core, the first level 60 40man raid.

I am Beastmaster specced, and used two different pets to tank for me. I used a Gorilla for most bosses, but used a Spirit Beast on a couple, so that it could heal me.

I went in and started the clock. Killed some trash, and made it to Gehennas without any problem. I sent my Gorilla in and downed him with minimal damage to myself. I had about 75k health left at the end of the fight.

Next came Garr, with all his adds. This was simple. I sent in my Gorilla, used Bestial Wrath, Misdirected to my pet, then Multishotted as much as possible. I didn't get a scratch.

After Garr, I tried Barron Geddon. And died. So I tried again. And died. And again. And died. So I went to Lucifron. I used my cat, killed his adds, no problem.

After that, I went to Magmadar. Should've cleared the room first. While I was fighting him, I got feared into two packs of core hounds, who wouldn't die unless they all died together. This fight took forever, and about seven feign deaths. After I killed him, I looted and skinned him. Then remembered to take a picture. So here is a picture of the empty space he used to occupy.

After Magmadar, I went back to Baron Geddon. This time, I used my gorilla and cleared almost the whole room where the boss patrolled. Then I switched to my cat, pulled the boss with a serpent sting, and then got out of the area entirely. I couldn't hit the boss anymore, but he couldn't hit me either. So my cat killed him for me.

After Baron Geddon, Shazzrah was no problem. I simply stayed out of her AoE range and shot her.

Then came Sulfuron harbinger. This guy wasn't too hard, but he took forever. I didn't start off by focusing the healers, so they kept healing him. Also, mid-fight I pulled two core hounds. I also pulled three firelords, who split into about 30 little fire elementals when they died. The fight took a while, but I eventually won out.

I went to Golemagg the Incinerator. He was easy, just had to focus him and forget about his adds. They can't die if he's alive.



Once he was dead, Majordomo appeared. he wasn't too hard. You don't actually kill him, you kill the adds around him and he surrenders. There are four healers, and four casters. As long as I focused on the healers first, I was good. Since you don't actually kill him, here is a pic of him surrendering.

So we get to Ragnaros. I took a picture of him before and after. He was actually pretty easy. At this level, it was a simple "tank and spank" method.

All in all, it took me 1hr 25mins, and would have taken me less if I hadn't died three times. I left with 400 gold, and some fun items, like some pieces of my tier 1 set. Also got some blues to sell on the auction house. My plan is to do this every so often, maybe farm for Thunderfury to get my guild the achievement.
