So tonight Blizzard had us do another round of testing on Hodir. The only notable change was his HP, he went down from ~35 Million to around 25 Million, easy fight becomes even easier! My guess is that they did this in order to make the hard mode possible. It’s already been discovered that Hodir’s hard mode requires you to kill him within 3 minutes, before he shatters the rare cache of Hodir. In order to accomplish this, the raid must put out a minium of 138,888 DPS. With the help of some Ulduar gear and the buffs we get from the adds, this achievement should be doable once it’s on farm status.

Hodir Preview - 3.1 PTR

Since the previous Hodir video was buggy, and was recorded in 10 man, I decided to create a new one! Again, please let me know what you think of the quality.

The hardest part of this encounter was getting everyone in the instance. After about an hour of fighting the blue bar boss, we were able to get 25 inside the instance, three attempts later, Hodir was dead. Easy boss, slightly more challenging than Flame Leviathan & Ignis, definately looking forward to doing the achievement.
