Pretty much Ensidia needs a 72hr ban for exploiting. They got to ignore a whole DPS mechanic because they could ignore the valkyr in phase 2 completely.
WF legit is to Blood Legion. No way I can consider the 25m kill legitimate.

Man i wish they'd just ban anyone in ensidia, set an example like they did with the martin fury guy.
Blizzard doesn't give a shit about Ensidia's exploiting bosses. They are in constant communication with them even which steps over the boundries by a long shot. A game company should not be playing favorites with their client base.
At this point, I'm actually surprised Blizzard doesn't just give them a private PTR. Not that it really matters, since they had plenty of opportunities to figure out all the encounters except Arthas 2-3 months ago. It'd probably be better for the WoW community to simply stop caring about things like World Firsts. Of course, as long as there are nerd points to be had by way of Feats of Strength, that'll never happen.
lol how many years has this shit been going on now?
It's expected at this point. They never get slapped for this shit, and it's almost as if they know about the exploits before they even try the encounter! ZOMGA
It does at least bring fun forum topics and discussions... when you have billionaires running your guild and probably shelling money into blizzard as well, it's hard to reprimand them for doing something you told them about.
lol Ensidia should be permabanned for all the bosses they have exploited in the past. Doesn't surprise me one bit and kinda funny how they keep managing to find these off-the wall "bugs".
what was the bug and is there a video, or how do people know if was bugged
Don't know if you can run ICC with your guild etc, but these two weapons are easily BiS for combat right now if can get your hands on them (i know in some of your posts you said your realm sucks at pugging)

Also treasure the hit while you can, soon as you get to ICC loot standards, you will be wanting it on every piece you can find, it is a rarity and it fucking sucks because you will start to push for Crit cap very early on.
As much as i hate Ensidia also, at the end of the day, it is Blizzards fault for not testing every possible outcome on the last thing they need to do before Cataclysm. Also EU's do get things 24 hours after NA, so it isn't like you didn't have a chance to get the world first everytime lol.
The bug was the outer edge respawning during the Valkyr phase (the Valkyr grab someone and try to drop them over the edge) if the floor has respawned this phase is obviously trivialised as they can no longer drop you.
To be honest though, who gives a fuck? Ensidia has the dps to kill those Valkyr without any issues. If Blizzard did reset their attempts and Arthas himself they would still kill him. While their intents may sometimes be questionable you can't argue that they have very skilled players.
But yes, I do think they knew that bug wasn't supposed to happen. Would they have killed him without that bug? Yes, i'm fairly positive they would have. Every other guild trying Arthas will have had an engineer in the raid and also would have experienced this bug yet they still didn't manage to kill Arthas.
Asking for them to be banned is over the top really, resetting Arthas would be much more reasonable but also fairly pointless.
From what I've read Ensignia did get a 72h ban for the exploit and got their achievement / loot stripped from them. There's a blog-post from muqq about it with a whole lot of QQ in it.
A lot of their players switched to engineering this week (like within 24 hours of that kill). Combine that with the general assessment of "If it is obviously an exploit and you continue to go forward with it knowing that, then disciplinary action follows." They are just following through just like they did with the Yogg fiasco.
Covering the shit up with "This is part of their normal rotation", "we would have killed it anyways" just shows that they didn't care that they were exploiting and think that they should be forgiven or just a slap on the wrist.
For all the ensidia haters, the gravy is Muqq qqing and cancelling his account because blizz cant fix their encounters.
honestly... that's how queen works, really
If you wipe before then, it's pretty much just badness. (for example, fucktards in my 25 man getting themselves linked to me on the pull like 5 or 6 different times... other fucktards not understanding "don't fucking stand next to the guy you're about to bite while there's aoe explosions going off that kill people if you're standing next to them" etc. etc.)
Wiping at <5% is basically where you're "getting" the basics of the fight, and the group just plain isn't quite good enough, and people start looking at what buffs might work better if they changed specs and whatnot around within the group.
Justice has been served.
no, they deserve a permanent ban because this has been going on since aq40. stop defending them cookies, i remember you distinctly doing so when exodus had their exploit on 0 light. ensidia is full of people willing to exploit for that world first
Paragon 1 shotted it in 25's.
Nothing short of a permaban should have been given out to Ensidia. They have been repeat offenders of exploiting bugs for years.
It's not like they got a real ban anyways. It's just blizzard's "We don't want you using your accounts while we rollback" ban. It's just to make work easier.
Paladin health ninja nerf.
