We've made some changes to the Thorim encounter in Ulduar to reduce the amount of information sent when you initially start the fight. This should reduce the amount of lag and disconnects that some players experience when starting the encounter.

If you have completed the Thorim encounter after today (10/6) and are still experiencing issues when engaging the mobs in the arena, please post in this thread.

Please keep this thread on topic, and only post if you are still experiencing disconnects during the Thorim encounter.

All our resto druids d/c'd on Thorim. Now they d/c when Gormak engages combat. Related issue? Wondering if this was something we could look into.

Any chance you can apply the same change to Onyxia so we can do the whelp achievement without having 5 out of 10 people DC every time?

Nice ! Thorim "old content" was fixed 5 months later. A priest with mind control always was our fix.

Do u have home news about Gormok dc's ?

Why blizzard wasting her time fixing old content, while new one is broken? Gormok is still broken and is from the current raiding tier we are into

Can you confirm whether or not the ToC dc issues are similar to the Thorim dc issue? This is really getting old in a hurry.

Hogger is becoming a level 73 outdoor raid boss. His loot will remain the same, I'm afraid.

As others have stated we appreciate you looking into what was causing dc'ing issues in the last tier content, however it's really annoying to still not have heroic beasts as a notch on my belt because of dc issues on Gormak please make this a priority. kkthxbai

Gormok new ability. Blizzard please update it in patch notes.

Font = http://www.wowwiki.com/Gormok_the_Impaler

Crashing Blow (50000 yd range) — Deals a crashing blow to a random raid member. The targeted player is disconnected from the server and cannot log back in until Gormok is defeated. There is a 50% chance that the target will be afflicted by Berzerker Rage for the duration of the spell. Instant Cast .

On 25 player heroic mode, Gormok the Impaler currently gains one new ability: Crashing Blow. Players affected by Crashing Blow will be disconnected shortly after the start of the fight when the first Fire Bomb is cast. Currently, the full cause of this issue is unknown, but is suspected to be caused by an excess of data travelling between players due to addons, combined with the increased packet information for Gormok himself.

Last night my guild was clearing through Ulduar till we got to the Thorim fight. This fight has always been an easy fight for us. For some reason the arena group kept dying. The 1st thing that happened that made me think there was something wrong was one of the people that was clearing the hallway got smacked by Thorims hammer I personally saw it happen myself. I moved myself to the arena group for the next try and Holy crap the adds were coming down out of control. Every 2-3 seconds 10 or more adds were jumping down at a time. Something was definitely wrong. Hope this gets fixed.
