This sort of video playback of the whole “World Firsts” history always struck a nostalgic cord in me. And with the original video not updated anymore, I felt like this was something that had to be done.

I present to you the remastered version of this trip down memory lane: errors and typos were fixed, and visuals were updated and improved.

*NEW* I also added some in-game models visuals and notes, and I used AI Software to clean up the “nerd screams” where original music was overlapping. The results are pretty good especially on bosses like Algalon, Ragnaros returns or some of the Legion kills!

Everything is unfolding from the very first progress of the game, to the most recent kill, when this video is released.

I tried to stay true to the original material, that I watched countless of time, while also improving it as best as I could:

  1. The disrespect not including Premonition's only World First kill, Halion in Ruby Sanctum, is uncalled for. Yes, it's considered the worst raid ever. That doesn't dismiss their World First kill. Put some respect on their name.

  2. Is just me or is it weird that the progress duration is counted from the first pull of the actual endboss, apparently?
    Would make more sense to count the release date, to reflect the difficulty of previous bosses in that raid, wouldn't it?

  3. While i agree that spine of deathwing was the true endboss of dragon soul, you label it as madness of deathwing which is the actual endboss, but show a killvideo of spine of deathwing which is the second to last boss.

  4. sorry but what does "only defeated after new content was released" means next to Kael'Thas? as far as i remember the content after was Mount Hyjal? and the only way you could get there was to defeat Vashj and Kael'Thas?

Was in a server second guild, 1st was topping out world 100 ish, we were topping out bout world 300, the races we had, they beat us mostly but we got alot of server firsts, probably bout 30%. my favorite was same night progress on WOTLK naxx, we were on Kel same time, we beat them by bout 2 minutes, happy HAPPY times 😁

  6. Top guilds still to this day expliot and cheat out bosses to get a useles titel just to earn some sponser money. Meanwhile Ensidia got banned cause of a bug. Its easy to know Blizzard are affraid to ban top guilds today cause they give them so much money in return lol.
