Nerub’ar Heroic: Nicewater claimed World First Queen Ansurek
With the RWF entering its Heroic week, World First Queen Ansurek has been secured by the Chinese guild Nicewater! Meanwhile, the top guilds are still splitting.
Key takeaway
- The Chinese guild Nicewater has secured the World First Heroic kill of Queen Ansurek in the Nerub’ar Palace raid.
- Nicewater circumvented the delay of their regional reset by playing on North American servers, allowing them to claim the kill before the official start of Season 1 in their region.
- Top global guilds are focusing on Normal and Heroic splits.
Queen Ansurek in the Heroic Nerub’ar Palace raid has been downed for the first time! This achievement, first reported by Raider.IO, was claimed by the Chinese guild Nicewater. Despite the Chinese realms not yet having their weekly reset to officially kick off Season 1, Nicewater bypassed this limitation by playing on North American servers.
This strategic move allowed them to compete and secure the World First Heroic kill ahead of their regional reset. Unfortunately, despite the buzz, the community hasn’t seen any footage of the encounter yet. For now, players will have to make do with just the news of Queen Ansurek’s fall.
Meanwhile, top global guilds are concentrating on optimizing their efforts in Normal and Heroic splits. Partly because they strategically don’t want to tackle Queen Ansurek at the moment. Another reason is that some guilds are dealing with recent suspensions due to the reputation bug. Since the penalty lasts four to ten days, the raiders are waiting for their penalties to expire before making serious attempts on the final boss.
Congratulations to Nicewater on their exceptional achievement! We look forward to seeing how they will perform and what unfolds next in the incoming Nerub’ar Race to World First!
