Endgame = Game Over
We like a good challenge, but there's a certain point when the fun of exploring new areas, meeting random people, and questing is inevitably replaced by an obsessive thirst for the best loot and most powerful gear, which can only be attained by defeating the game's hardest bosses. These bosses are often so difficult that they require the precise coordination and combined efforts of as many as 40 players. Once you start rolling with raiding guilds to complete these massive endeavors you know you've reached the endgame.

Check out this epic player-madestrategy guide that uses 3,000 words and a ton of detailed diagrams to explain the most efficient way to kill Onyxia, one of the first endgame bosses players face in World of Warcraft. This complicated and comprehensive guide is just for one battle! All too often, the endgame becomes overly complex, stressful, and brings out the worst in people.
Now watch the infamous Onyxia raid gone wrong. But this time, keep in mind that the raid leader's instructions - minus the rude attitude and ranting - are all technically right according to the guide.
