I was looking through some screenshots from raids I did back in Burning Crusade and couldn't help but laugh at some of the epic wipes I saved. These actually brought back a lot of memories and made me look back on a lot of the friends I made while raiding.
Just felt like sharing, you don't have to care. <3
Kael'thas in TK. Most our raid is dead, and Zooba and I are running around mind-controlled finishing off the survivors.

This one just made me tilt my head wondering why the hell I was sitting down during the middle of a boss fight. (Lady Vashj in SSC) Think we downed her that attempt though.

This one still makes me laugh. We THOUGHT we were going to wipe because we pulled two groups of mobs in SSC on accident. Our MT, Nearsight, died, so our OT and half our healers and DPS made a run for it into the water. Turned out we had enough healers alive and killed enough mobs to be able to finish the fight, but now everyone was out in the middle of the water.

What you don't know about this one just by looking at it: This was Reliquary of Souls (spelling) in Black Temple. We wiped on this fight..but aggonizingly slowly, which is why I'm standing there taking screenshots, lol. Turned out everyone died..but me. I managed to Vanish in a corner and the boss reset. Only problem was there's an event that starts that fight which spawns adds in a long hallway. If I moved, the boss would aggro me. So I was trapped in there.

And what's better than a crushing blow of 94k to the face? Not a whole lot.

And of course an epic wipe on Zul'jin.

Gathios the Shatterer shattering my face. (Illidari Council in BT)

Ah, Mother Sharaz..fucking hated that fight. We wiped nine times before downing her that particular run. And look at that shit. I'm fourth on the DPS chart. I can barely out-DPS the healers in WotlK now.

And of course..the epic fail of Illidan. In this event, you have to stand in two specific spots. No exceptions. You stand too far one direction, you're guarenteed to die. Illidan blasts the raid with his eyes (that sound weird to you too?) and..lo and behold..we were standing in the wrong spot and all you saw was 12 "- has died." pop up on your screen.

Wiping on bosses was actually a great learning experience and a great way to learn the fights when you were new to them.
So there you have it. The Epic Wipes of Fiddlesticks.
