Glory of the Delver

I am a glorious delver! If you play The War Within, you probably already know that in order to complete this meta achievement, you must kill Zekvir all on your lonesome.

I’m a Beast Mastery Hunter using the Open World / Delves Pack Leader build from Wowhead, my ilvl at the moment of the kill was 605. Brann was level 32, he was specced as healer with Unbreakable Iron Idol and Relic of Sentience. It took me between around 20 attempts to complete it.

I used Deadly Boss Mods to warn me of the different phases, a Weak Aura alert to interrupt Enfible Spittle and a macro to counter shot the target of my focus, so I don’t have to swap targets:

#showtooltip Counter Shot
/cast [@focus,exists,harm,nodead][] Counter Shot

There are 3 things to look for:

  1. Interrupt Enfeebling Spittle. Its cast time is 1.5 seconds, so you must practice to use your Counter Shot macro really fast;
  2. You must, in absolute priority, destroy the cocoon that Zekvir creates when he casts Call Web Terror. If you let it hatch, you’ll be incapacitated and probably die from Zekvir’s other spells;
  3. Don’t stand in the shit! Whether it’s Zekvir’s frontal attack or its AOE Fear, run away!

So the whole fight consists in DPSing Zekvir while interrupting its DOT and switching to the cocoons when he summons them. Don’t forget to heal your pets, stay out of his attacks and use your CDs on the cocoons, because they need to be destroyed in priority.

I start the fight by applying Hunter’s Mark, marking Zekvir as target of my /focus, using Misdirect on my pets and already using Mend Pet before pulling.

My greatest advice is to do it again and again until you get comfortable with the mechanics. The amount of attempt isn’t limited and, beside the repair bill, it’s free. Oh, and don’t do like me during my first 10 pulls, make sure that Growl is on!

Fear Street Trilogy

Slasher trilogy with a ’90s vibe. These words are enough for me. If you need more, the future of our friendship seems compromised and I don’t really know how you ended up on this blog. However, I’ll write a little something, for those who would need an extra push.

Teenagers accidentally cross path with an ancient witch responsible for a series of brutal murders that have plagued their town for centuries. This trilogy crosses time and takes place in the 90s (first movie), the 70s (second movie) and 1666 (third movie).

Fear street is a great blend of ocult mystery, slasher and ’90s nostalgia. It’s well filmed, stylish, and very entertaining! The cast is near perfect and the soundtrack is on spot.

Even if the movies often feel like an homage to classics slashers like Friday the 13th or Scream, it it manages to get its own flavor by adding supernatural elements for flavor and it all works!

I was pleasantly surprised by this Netflix Original trilogy and I would strongly recommend it to the fans of the genre.
