World of Warcraft<\/em> powerhouse Echo has matched Complexity Limit\u2019s Castle Nathria record in the Race to World First despite entering the raid a day late.\u00a0<\/p>
The European guild largely composed of former Method players took the raid\u2019s first seven bosses in stride, quickly making up for lost ground and catching up with Limit.\u00a0<\/p>
Limit, while still technically at an advantage in the race, hit a brick wall with Sludgefist, Castle Nathria\u2019s eighth boss. <\/p>
The North American guild came across a game-breaking bug<\/a> yesterday, putting a stop to their progression. The bug, which has now been hotfixed<\/a> by Blizzard, made the boss practically unkillable, preventing immunities from working and leading to unfair deaths.\u00a0<\/p>
Despite this predicament, Limit decided to take a new approach to the race. \u201cThere\u2019s no reason to be bashing your head into a bugged boss,\u201d Limit\u2019s raid leader Maximum said on his stream<\/a>. \u201cWe have to do splits [Heroic raids] today anyway. You might as well do it when there\u2019s literally nothing you can do.\u201d<\/p>
