Raiding with Meyr: Ulduar

As foreshadowed eariler in the week this week's topic is the Ulduar raid. This is one of my favorite raids that Blizzard has released. Its expansive and I think its fantastic lore/storywise.

Here's some concept art for non-WoW players.

The backstory:

Ulduar is a Titan prison, where the worst of the Titan's enemies are held. However, one of these "Old Gods," named Yogg-Saron unable to gain freedom has begun "influencing" his jailer's minds and corrupting Ulduar. 

The bosses of Ulduar. Including Kologarn who I drew a couple days ago.

Why I like it?

I love the look of everything-- its very mystical. The graphics and the setting is absolutely beautiful. Algalon the Observer in the middleish-left of the picture above is designed to essentially be a constellation. Also the voice acting and the dialoge is all very memorable. Many of the reasons for my love of Ulduar can be seen in this set of videos.

Also I had a lot of fun when Raiding Company was running around in Ulduar. So I may be biased. That and I really like some of the fight mechanics. I think that Flame Leviathan with two towers is my favorite encounter in WoW, period.

It spawned our love and obsession with the Hoperender, polearm.
