It looks that there is a head-to-head, seen multiple times during this tier so far, between Alpha and Chao Jie.

Both with low best % attempts on Sire, Chao Jie with a best of 1% and Alpha slightly behind with a new best of 22% (just now).

Method having multiple low health attempts on Sire Denathrius yesterday has them determined to secure the kill today. They are inside the raid, on their first pull wiping at 4% and at 10% on their second pull.

Chao Jie are also actively pulling Sire Denathrius, with a recent 53% wipe they are getting further into the fight. They currently appear to be taking a quick food break.

Taking a look at the guilds also on Sire Denathrius that are currently offline: Exorsus has a best of 41.9% and BDGG has a best of 32.3%.

minor
UPDATE - 2nd January, 2021, 12:39 am (GMT) By Paul

Exorsus hit a new best of 41.9% today and have called it for the night.

After Aversion killed Stone Legion Generals, they had one pull Sire, getting the boss to 91.2% before logging off and calling it a day.

Method look to be pushing forward for a last push before stopping for today, having had the boss at a lowest of 3.3%, they are close to a kill!

minor
UPDATE - 1st January, 2021, 3:29 pm (GMT) By Paul

In the EU, we have Exorsus entering the raid, joining Method on Mythic Sire Denathrius. Today will be the start of progress for Exorsus, so it will be interesting to see how far they get!

Method's new best today has been 30.1%, and have had 84 pulls on the boss so far.

Taking a look at some CN guilds just behind the front of the pack, Chao Jie and Alpha are working on Stone Legion Generals.

Skyline and JTH both seem to be taking a break, before pushing to secure that World 5th ranking.

We have two CN guilds closing in on a Sire Denathrius kill! Jitianhong has their best pull at 0.4% and Skyline has their best at 1.2% (142 pulls). With pulls this low, we could see World 5th and 6th kills of the end boss today.

It currently looks that Method is the only other guild currently pulling Sire Denathrius, with a best of 36.8% and 75 pulls so far.

minor
UPDATE - 31st December, 2020, 1:30 pm (GMT) By Paul

Today we have the battle to secure the top 10 ranking this tier. With BDGG killing SLG earlier today, there are now 5 guilds looking to down Sire Denathrius next.

JTH and Skyline are head-to-head in getting the Asia 1st kill and World 5th, as both guilds are on Sire Denathrius with JTH having a best attempt of 34% and Skyline with a best of 36% (57 pulls). Unlike all other guilds so far, Skyline have extended their lockout (possibly with JTH doing the same). They have taken a short break to head into Mythic+ and Torghast, but should both be back in the raid soon.

In the EU, Method have started early this morning with Sire Denathrius. After 38 pulls their best is 55.1%.

The EU are back into the raid.

We see Exorsus and Method back to progressing on Stone Legion Generals. With their kill shortly before this update, the guild, Банхаммер (Banhammer) have also joined the 9 other guilds working on the Generals, defeating Sludgefist World 12th, EU 7th.

Practice are also back into the raid, pulling The Council of Blood, looking to get back to progressing Sludgefist.

Alpha are also working on Stone Legion Generals, whilst Chao Jie are doing Heroic splits.

Another look at progress and reclearing we have some movement:

  • Ji Tianhong have re-killed Sludgefist and move back onto progressing Stone Legion Generals.
  • Exorsus are still in the raid, working on Stone Legion Generals.
  • Alpha are still working on re-killing The Council of Blood.
  • Skyline continue with their HC splits.
  • Jinling are doing Mythic+

We are getting close to a World second kill of Sire Denathrius Mythic. Echo have had two increasingly low wipes of 0.7% and just now 0.1%.

With a quick look at the guilds reclearing, Alpha and Ji Tianhong are working on their re-kill of The Council of Blood. Choe Jie are just clearing the trash before The Council of Blood now and will join the others on the boss very soon.

Echo are incredibly close to a kill now, wiping at 2%, with confidence flowing, they have their sights set on a kill!

UPDATE - 24th December, 2020, 10:57 am (GMT) By Paul

Echo have entered Mythic Castle Nathria once again and start their next sprint of pulls on Sire Denathrius.

After doing HC splits, they were discussing raid setup, a few adjustments of classes/specs being in the raid and reassignment of cooldown usage, dps target assignment and interrupt orders.

Based on their low close pulls yesterday on the boss, it's very likely we could see a kill for them today!

minor
UPDATE - 24th December, 2020, 10:36 am (GMT) By Paul

Checking in with the guilds that had their weekly reset today, we can see the top guilds are actively preparing to push their own progress further.

Jinling are ready to pull Mythic Artificer Xy'mox and Chao Jie are pulling Hungering Destroyer. Alpha seem to be taking a break after a few pulls on Mythic Artificer Xy'mox. Skyline and Ji Tianhong were last seen doing HC splits.

minor
UPDATE - 24th December, 2020, 10:16 am (GMT) By Paul

Echo are all online and are starting the day with HC Sire Denathrius splits to acquire more weapons for their main team.

Other than Echo, we don't see many of the other frequent names, although that is to be expected as many EU guilds will be offline for some, most or all of today.

Echo's best pull on Sire Denathrius currently sits at 25.9%, quite some way off the 4.7% recorded by Complexity Limit earlier, but not so far behind that you can count them out of a first-place finish yet.

Elsewhere Method have finished up their Heroic Splits and will now look to resume their own Mythic re-clear, starting with Artificer Xy'mox.

Pieces are working on their Sludgefist re-kill, whereas Exorsus have literally just downed The Council of Blood and will soon move on to the giant themselves.

Aversion have opted in to doing their Heroic splits now, whereas Practice have siphoned off in to groups to cap their Conquest through some PvP.

As news of Complexity Limit's 4.7% wipe on Sire Denathrius has reached the Echo camp, they have opted to abandon their Split runs and head straight back in to Mythic to start pulling the boss themselves. The Race for World First is incredibly tight at the top now, as we all eagerly await to see who will ultimately triumph.

The Mythic re-clears continue for our EU guilds. Echo are in the lead, having worked their way back to Stone Legion Generals as they attempt to reach Denathrius again.

Pieces, Exorsus, Aversion and practice are all working on their Council of Blood re-kills. We do not currently know how FatSharkYes are doing with their re-clear.

Over in NA, Complexity Limit are back online now and progressing Sire Denathrius. Will it be long before we have a winner in this race? With Christmas just around the corner, it will be interesting to see if Sire Denathrius goes down by the end of tomorrow.

Over in Asia, whilst Skyline and Jitianhong work on their Stone Legion Generals progress, there are a number of guilds looking to join them soon. Alpha have recorded a new best on Sludgefist of 1.7%, whereas Chao Jie got him as low as 3.4%! We know Jin Ling are edging closer to a kill also, with a previous best from yesterday of 4%.

The EU Mythic re-clears continue. Exorsus, Aversion and Pieces are all currently on the Sun King, although Pieces are technically one boss behind as they opted not to kill Artificer Xy'mox beforehand, whereas the others did.

Echo are ahead of the pack, having downed the Council and are now preparing to pull Sludgefist again on their re-clear through the raid.

Method are completing their Heroic Splits before presumably heading back in to the Mythic raid themselves.

Method have temporarily halted their Mythic reclear to head in to Heroic Sire Denathrius splits for (hopefully) some weapon token trading.

Despite some earlier wipes, both Aversion and Pieces have caught up to Exorsus on their Mythic re-clears, with all three now on the Artificer having recently downed Lady Inerva Darkvein.

Echo meanwhile are working on their Council of Blood re-kill, with a few wipes so far.

Pieces is ready to enter Castle Nathria and have started their re-clear. It will be interesting to see how their reclear pull counts compare to the current EU guilds in the raid so far. They have started to engage Shriekwing already.

Echo is going for Sun King next after defeating Artificer Xy'mox on their 8th pull.

Method have defeated Lady Inerva Darkvein and move to Artificer Xy'mox.

Alpha, ChaoJie and JinLing continue on Sludgefist. They appear to have very high pull counts on Sludgefist respectively based on the rate at which they reset after a wipe! And we know these three guilds have done HC splits, M+ and PVP.

Exorsus have already entered the raid and are moving on to Huntsman Altimor.

Echo are working on Artificer Xy'Mox.

Method have just defeated Hungering Destroyer, moving onto Lady Inerva Darkvein next. With a new addition to the team (Cruelladk), they are taking a little time before each boss to run through tactics.

Aversion and Pieces are both still finishing preparations outside of the raid (M+, Torghast and Arena).

JinLing, ChaoJie and Alpha are still working on Sludgefist, with Alpha having achieved a new best of 5%. Skyline continue progressing on the Stone Legion Generals.

With many EU guilds packing it in to get ahead start for tomorrow's reset, the US made the most of their day so far. Limit did a full Mythic re-clear up to Sire. With quick precision and no real struggle for bosses like Sludgefist and Stone Legion Generals. Their efforts were rewarded with a nice little ilvl bump, priming them to get back to the anima stealing diva Denathrius. Here is a quick overview of where some of our top 10 stand with the Upper Spire bosses for Castle Nathria.

Sire Denathrius -  9/10

  • Limit - Best Attempt: 29.3% | Pulls: 82
  • Echo - Best attempt and pull count are unknown however, they stated this morning they are making good progress. 

Stone Legion Generals - 8/10

  • Pieces - Best Attempt: 50.9% | Pulls: 229
  • BDGG - Best Attempt: 74.7% | Pulls: 65
  • FatSharkYes - Best Attempt: 55%  | Pulls: 69
  • Method - Best Attempt: 74.3% | Pulls: 78
  • Skyline - Best Attempt: 74.4% | Pulls: 44

Sludgefist - 7/10

  • Aversion - Best Attempt: 1.75%  | Pulls: 524
  • Lazarus Imperative - Best Attempt: 19.1% | Pulls: 133

US reset is well underway and Limit are working on a reclear, having just killed Huntsman. It will be interesting to see how quickly they return to Sire Denathrius and the impact gear will have to how quickly a few previous boss walls can be defeated this time around.

When the Mythic race continues into a weekly reset, reclearing in hopes of additional gear can mean the difference in pushing through a difficult phase or finally killing a boss after many close wipes. Full reclears also help tighten the team skill set for a particular tough boss or blocker. For bosses like Sludgefist and Council, where all the crit stars align, resulting in a kill after much struggle before the win, reinforcement by way of reclear only help these raiders as a whole.

Echo has Scripe and Rogerbrown on the stream to give some additional context on why they were not streaming Sire so far.

Echo says they are ahead, and jested at unleashing a secret Feral Druid strat. Their game plan is Mythic + runs, PvP for conquest, the Maw and Torghast to prepare before tomorrow's reset. Extra sleep will round out their end of day as they are starting slightly earlier tomorrow, around 7:00AM GMT/8:00AM CET/11:00PM PST or right after reset.

Echo's current plan is to reclear the raid tomorrow. They have confirmed they will be streaming everything, including Sire Denathrius.

Echo have now announced that they will not be streaming any of their Sire Denathrius progress today. Instead fans will have to wait until EU reset tomorrow morning, when they apparently will turn their streams back on again for their Mythic re-clear. It is unknown whether or not they will then keep their streams on or turn them off again once they reach Sire Denathrius for a second time.

Elsewhere both Pieces and Method are still live-streaming their Stone Legion Generals progress. Pieces are up to 209 pulls with a best of 50% Kaal/62% Grashaal, whereas Method have thus far mustered 30 pulls with a best of 48.6% Kaal/100% Grashaal.

As we move later in to Day 8 of the race, we have multiple guilds edging closer and closer to downing Sludgefist. There are multiple Chinese guilds within kill-range, in addition to Aversion and Exorsus who are neck-and-neck to claim the next EU kill on the giant. There are at least five guilds that we know of that have recorded at least one sub-10% wipe from across these regions, and all will be hoping to get this boss down before the day is out.

Pieces, FatSharkYes and Method are all working their way through Stone Legion Generals, trying hard to move to 9/10 before their weekly reset tomorrow morning, when they will all likely re-clear for additional gear.

Echo are due to be going live any minute and fans are eagerly anticipating seeing where they have gotten up to with their Sire Denathrius progress.

Over in NA the guilds will slowly start to come online, including Complexity Limit and BDGG who will have the chance to start their re-clears today, potentially followed by Heroic Splits.

Following Method's kill on Sludgefist, there are now over 25+ guilds vying for the World 7th kill, reinvigorated by news that Method have downed the giant. Whether it will be one of the EU or Asian guilds, we are expecting more teams to secure their kill and move on to Stone Legion Generals today. From EU Exorsus and Aversion look most likely, with best pulls of 1% and 1.7% respectively, meaning a kill could come any pull now. Over in Asia, we believe Skyline have the best recorded pull at 6%, followed by Alpha who have a best of 16%.

Meanwhile over on Stone Legion Generals we have both Pieces and FatSharkYes continuing to make progress. Pieces currently sit at 185 pulls with a best of 50% Kaal/68% Grashaal. Method have opted to head to the Maw to complete their dailies ahead of starting their progress on the encounter after lunch.

We do not currently know how Echo are progressing on Sire Denathrius, however they have announced on Twitter that they intend to stream at 16:00 CET.

With today being reset day in NA, both Complexity Limit and BDGG are likely to be heading in to their Mythic re-clears very soon as they look to gear up and tackle Sire Denathrius and Stone Legion Generals respectively.

As the US day comes to an end, let's have a quick recap.

Vesper, xD and Midwinter joins the #Sludgefistorbust ranks, killing Council and bringing their kill count to 7/10.

It is US reset day, which does put US at a slight advantage for potential gear to help give a little boost. Limit and Echo are the obvious and most likely Sire Denathrius WF kill candidates however, let's be real - it's anyone's game at this point. We have seen some seemingly impossible feats this first raid tier of Shadowlands, so join me in throwing out the rule book, textbook and well all the books.

Pieces, BDGG and FatSharkYes have much Stone Legion Generals work to handle today before they can begin the Sire Denathrius dance. Meanwhile many other guilds still need to break through the wall that is Sludgefist, including Method who are starting out today after a best attempt of 2.5% shortly before stopping yesterday.

I know things earlier were getting a little spicy, sometimes that is needed to keep the blood pumping. In the fun, teasing that some turn into toxic though, it's important to remember we have a job to do as a community. Yes, I am talking to you! Every one of us RWF enthusiasts have one of these two jobs to do - either kill Mythic bosses or support those who are. Each of these jobs comes with its own ups and downs, ultimately both jobs end with the same achievement. Sharing a passion for World of Warcraft, helping it continue to thrive.

It looks like Echo have taken their streams offline as they look to make early progress through the Sire Denathrius encounter. Meanwhile Pieces are still working their way through the Stone Legion Generals, with discussions between the raiders seemingly focused on learning how Echo were able to overcome the parts of the fight they are most struggling with currently.

Method are still farming M+ in an attempt to gear up their DPS players to make the final push on Sludgefist. Aversion have been actively progressing the encounter today, having recently secured a new best pull at 9.6%. Exorsus are also making steady progress, with several pulls under the 30% mark.

Method have seen their new lowest pull of 5.4% on Sludgefist. With the raid looking healthly there, it seems they now need to turn their attention to hitting that point at a lower % if they are to get a kill before the AoE damage from the wall charge wipes them (as seen with the kills from Complexity Limit, Echo and Pieces). Discussion in the raid quickly turned then to composition, with them potentially looking to swap some of the DPS classes to get the boss low enough for that tight kill window. With some players weighing up the DPS increase of changing to Troll for Berserking.

They are now splitting into Mythic+ to target some DPS gear.

Looking at the scoreboard this morning, Limit getting WF on the Stone Legion Generals has been the only major change at the top of the scoreboard. Now at 9/10 bosses defeated they are ready for some serious Sire Denathrious progress when the US raiding starts up again today. So far they have had 1 pull on him, resulting in a wipe at 86%.

Overall, we now have 19 guilds trying to grab that world 4th kill on Sludgefist; 11 EU guilds, 3 US guilds, and 5 Asian guilds. Although the guilds are likely getting tired of hammering away on Sludgefist, we are seeing some great progression and it's an exciting day for all of these guilds trying to secure their position in the race and their ranking on Sludgefist.

Then we have Echo and Pieces on Stone Legion General. Echo, only moments ago made huge progress making far into phase 3 on their 175th pull, with a new best of 19.6 / 23.1 %!! Pieces do not have as many pulls on Stone Legion Generals as Echo, but they certainly feel the pressure.

Pieces have also just started up for the day, heading straight to Stone Legion Generals.

As we settle in to what is Day 6 of the Race to World First Castle Nathria, things are becoming very tense at the top. Complexity Limit, Echo and Pieces are all working on the Stone Legion Generals, a fight that is widely reported to have numerous bugs and issues that is causing the top guilds much frustration. Complexity Limit thus far have pulled the boss 217 times with a best attempt of 49.4% in to Phase 2. Echo's best on the other hand is 49.8%/48.6% during 2nd intermission after a total of 117 pulls. Lastly Pieces, who have only pulled the boss 21 times, have a best of 61% on Phase 1.

Elsewhere in Europe, Method, Aversion, FatSharkYes, Exorsus and Practice are working very hard to break through the wall that is Mythic Sludgefist. Aversion is slightly ahead with 126 pulls with a best of 17.7%, followed closely by Method who sit at 111 pulls with a best of 21.4%.

Of the Asian guilds Skyline (6th) and Jitianhong (9th) are among the top 10 in the worlds, whilst Alpha (16th) is climbing steadily. Both Skyline and Jitianhong, together with nine other guilds, are hoping to get that world 4th kill on Sludgefist.

Right now Pieces have racked up the most pulls on the encounter, and have now finally resigned to Heroic Splits to find the extra throughput they need to secure the kill. Method opted to spend most of yesterday and this morning completing Heroic Splits of their own, which has allowed Aversion to overtake them slightly in terms of number of pulls and lowest percentage. Method have 34 pulls on Sludgefist with a best of 44%, whereas Aversion have over 60 pulls with a best of 40%.

In Asia the day is drawing to a close, whereas in the US it is just starting. Whilst we're unsure if Skyline or Jitianhong will be able to down the giant before going to sleep, it is possible BDGG can do it today upon waking up.

Pieces have opted not to go in to Splits yet and are continuing with their Sludgefist pulls. They are the only EU guild on Sludgefist not to have gone to Heroic Splits yet - a brave choice that it is definitely a gamble, but one that could pay off in the long run if they are able to focus their Splits around classes that are preferred on Sire Denathrius rather than Sludgefist.

Pieces with ANOTHER great pull on Sludgefist, this time wiping on just 9%! Considering they still have not done their full complement of Heroic Splits, they are looking really good right now.

The decision on whether or not to go and do those Splits now is crucial. Typically guilds delay them for as long as possible to get as much information on the raid as possible, preferably on the final boss to discover which classes are going to be best to stack, and thus funnel gear to in the Split runs. However, with Sludgefist seeming like such a wall due to very very tight DPS checks, it's likely Pieces will opt to do them as Echo, Limit and Method have done.

However, even with the double Chain Slam hotfix deployed, he refuses to budge. This fight is not melee friendly, comes complete falling rocks of death and chains for your comfort. This is definitely going to be a blocker for many guilds. 

Limit finally called it around 21 wipes with their best pull at 51.7%. With little to no percent progression each pull combined with the late US hour, calling it was a good idea.

Echo is working on the Sun King, Pieces are pulling the Artificer, and Exorsus have claimed the EU 3rd kill on Hungering Destroyer. Both Method and Aversion are hot on their heels, working their way through the Hungering Destroyer with 10% and 60% pulls respectively.

The current EU leaders, Echo, are making good progress on Artificer Xy'mox, with their latest pull seeing the boss at 28%.

Pieces and Method have both defeated Shriekwing, killing the boss almost at the exact same time.

Both guilds move onto Huntsman, it will be interesting to see which guild breaks ahead.

The EU guilds are mixing it up slightly further with Pieces and Aversion opting to earn Conquest through Arenas before entering the raid.

Pieces and Method have now entered Mythic Castle Nathria and are working on taking down Shriekwing.

Echo have dismantled Huntsman Altimor in quick time, killing the boss on their first pull! We do not yet know which boss they will go for third, but it will be interesting to see how fast the EU guilds progress through these early bosses in comparison to other regions.

Multiple EU guilds have now entered the raid, whereas others (e.g. Method) have opted to secure their free piece of Heroic loot from the weekly quest first before heading in to Castle Nathria.

We have a few recorded EU kills already, with Casual Raiders claiming EU 1st on Mythic Shriekwing! We know Echo have also secured their Shriekwing kill and are awaiting news of others.

Looks like Complexity Limit is doing some off stream The Council of Blood pulls in for practice while BDGG has packed it in for the US night as well.

Limit pushing progression forward at 4/10 with Imperative and BDGG close to follow is certainly bringing the heat. A few more hours for US to keep gaining a lead before the EU comes out swinging. So far, we have about 13 US guilds with at least 2 Mythic bosses killed and 20 with at least 1 kill. Now is the time to grab a power nap, some tacos, a coffee and have a stretch while you can.

As Limit prepares to come back from a 45 minute break, BDGG inches closer to killing Sun King with a best a 2% wipe. Lazarus is making steady progress on Lady Inerva Darkvein at about 50%. The US guilds really showed up today with their Wheaties and A game, which makes this race so much run to watch.

Securing the third boss kill is proving to be a challenge compared to a lot of previous 3rd bosses. Limit is inching closer on Sun King and Imperative making good progress at about 15% on Hungering Devourer.

As Lazarus Imperative & Blood Legion focus on the Hungering Destroyer beat down, Lazarus is at about 50% for best attempt while Blood Legion is close to about 70%. In equal measure, the Sun King's battle with BDGG and Complexity Limit is also at about 70% for best attempt on Kael'Thas. Definingly wondering which path will prove the better choice!

Looks like a split path for 4 guilds. Lazarus Imperative & Blood Legion are going for Hungering Destroyer and BDGG & Complexity Limit are taking on Sun King's Destroyer.

Interestingly, some guilds (including Complexity Limit) are doing 4x M0 dungeons for a weekly quest before entering the raid on Mythic. This weekly quest rewards each player with a Heroic item level piece of loot from Castle Nathria.

Other guilds, namely BDGG and Lazarus Imperative opted to go straight into the raid, both having downed the first boss, Shriekwing.
