/ hirumared
In this video we'll go over the raid fights in wow which lasted the longest, while actually doing the fight itself. So basically the length of the actual raid fight, and how long it took on average in order to complete it based on a few metrics that I'll talk about in the video itself.
-The List-
10-Mythic Gul'dan 15.5-min
9- Garrosh 15.75-min
8- Magtheridon 16-mins
7- Ragnaros Firelands 17-min
6- Kael'thas 17??-min
5- Imperator Mar'gok 18-mi
4- Nefarian 18.5??-min
3- Four Horsemen 21.5-mins
2- Illidan 22.5-mins

Spine of Deathwing is missing from this list. It takes an hour. Always an hour. Even if your clock only says 5 minutes, it’s an hour.

In the lore, the Spine of Desthwing was granted a power like no other by the Void Lords. It holds the power of generating that slight pause in raiding where your gathering but you don’t know if you need a pug. Eventually you que up and you swear your asking for just a dps, yet you get tanks and heals lined up. And then they need a summons because “summons plz” even if it’s just a hearth and portal away, and you don’t have a lock so you run back to the entrance. That kind of power.

Going purely by my solo transmog run shenanigans, the longest fights are: 5. Imperator Mar'gok. Shut up and die already! 4. Kel'Thuzad. 3 minutes of waiting to one-shot the guy. 3. Gothik the Harvester. 4 minutes of waiting to one-shot the guy. 2. The Blast Furnace. Kill me. Just...just kill me. 1. Spine of Deathwing. FINE I'LL JUST KILL MYSELF.

One important thing to mention about the Sha is that once you got to the hard mode phase and after you wipe, you get a raid-wide, permanent 15% cast/attack speed buff. It's almost as if Blizzard knew the fight was too long and tossed raiders a bone once they proved they could get to the HM phase. I remember intentionally wiping the first pull of the night just to get the buff.
Most LFR fights are super long only because you are more fighting against your raid members actually doing their job and not AFKing than you are the boss itself.

I think the 'world first kill' should be the main source of 'longest raid fight' honestly. 10minute fight is *very* different from 16 minutes, as implied by Magtheridon. Maybe take the average of the world first and a few others from that time period if possible, or just simply the world first kill if not. At least on fights where the discrepancy was that massive
@hirumaredx

Yes the method is flawed, but besides Magtheridon I think it did an ok enough job at putting things in a good enough metric. Honestly I should have just thrown Magtheridon out, but there wasn't anything else to really make the list as there's just a ton of ties for the 15 minute raid length mark. So I decided to leave it in to explain how I did the math and why its a flawed method, but one I stuck with anyway since its better than just going on 1 number as explained in the Illidan/4-horsemen section.
I think before you had raid difficulty tiers Blizzard put really generous enrage timers on bosses so that even what we'd consider "heroic-only" guilds now could actually beat them eventually. They also probably wanted to keep the bosses possible even if a group was missing a dps or two.
can we just appreciate for a moment how terrifying the Sha of Fear is? just imagine at any moment you just see this thing walking up to you in the same way it's walking towards the player here: 13:44

It didn't need nerfed to be loleasy, every single class got significant buffs in their class revamps and the threat generation change was huge. Fights lasted longer in original difficulty MC & BWL in particular because higher dps numbers (which could be hit) meant dead dps and bosses running all over the place because the tanks couldn't generate enough threat.
That brought back some memories. I am happy to see Illidan on that list, lol, but shocked KJ (SWP) wasn't.

Kiljaden was actually a rather short fight because there was some tight psudo enrages plus u get a significant haste buff from the dragon which inflated the dps on Kj
I once did an LFR Garrosh that hit the enrage timer as a super geared DK tank that basically didn't need to be healed to help a friend. It... it was painful.

Go own to finish the fight with my DK tank and me throwing out moonfire/wrath with a clock timer of around 48 minutes -.-.

Not quite. The talents and the gear is in its final form in 1.12. As far as i know bosses didnt get nurfed in 1.12. But i may be wrong. Could you link me something to that regard? :) People are just better and know how to get the most out of their characters. Thats why wotlk private server bosses in ICC 25 HC have 200-300% more HP, because people just know how to play it properly now.
i think that what people really come to the raids for is the long bosses even if they dont know it or just refuse to admit it
The longer boss fights were always good at weeding out your worst raiders as they didn't have the best concentration.

Cho'gall is one of my favorite warcraft characters.
I remember Ragnaros back in classic taking 15+ mins. This was a long fight, and we were expected to 'wand' or melee our mana until it came back. I remember various ZG fights taking...around 15 minutes to complete, especially after multiple wipes. The trash took a long time too. Magtheridon took a while because he had so much HP, and you kept having to constantly switch to the adds that would form around the room. That, and we may have been slightly undergeared. Deathwing was probably one of the longest fights ever! It just so had many phases, and some of which were almost passive in which you had to wait for adds or stacks in order to progress. It took quite a long time.
The longest fight I had in LFR was an LFR Coven in Antorus that lasted 13m30... We didn't kill the boss

What's enrage timer?
“Not even modern guilds write down their fight lengths.” I forget if someone has to upload the info or if it magically appears, but The Warcraft logs website tracks every stat you could hope to record, and a lot of people are anal about kill time. And after any successful encounter, an addon reports to chat with some desired information, like this: “Il’gynoth (H25) downed in 6:45 with 23 players remaining. You have defeated this boss 3 times.” And because everyone is paranoid about carrying dead weight through raids, kill time comes may come up regularly depending on who you are with. “X guild downed it in 7 min. There’s no reason we can’t.” “Taking longer than 10 min, someone’s not pulling their weight.” Endless examples.

Just a small point for Garrosh LFR. The fight was originally 18 minutes enrage, up from the 15 minutes enrage on Normal (this later became Heroic). Some 6-8 months after the release of Siege of Orgrimar, every LFR group had to wipe the boss 10 times before they could kill it, as the quality of players had become that bad. It was then hotfixed to give 25 minutes, and yet most groups still wiped at least 5-8 times due to the enrage.
