The competitive World of Warcraft raid scene saw significant progress on March 10, 2025, as two prominent guilds overcame challenging mythic encounters.

Weekend Raid Progress Highlights Top Guild Achievements
The official World of Warcraft account celebrated the weekend's achievements on March 10, 2025, showcasing the ongoing competition between top raiding guilds. These accomplishments demonstrate the high skill ceiling and coordination required in the current raid content.
Instant_Dollars Claims First Rik Reverb Victory
Guild Instant_Dollars made headlines by becoming the first to defeat the mechanically complex boss Rik Reverb. This encounter, aptly named for its rhythmic and disorienting mechanics, has been a significant roadblock for many raiding teams since the mythic difficulty opened.
The guild's strategic approach and flawless execution allowed them to claim this world-first achievement, cementing their position among the elite raiding community. Rik Reverb, known for his "Rik Roll" mechanics that disorient players, finally met his match against the coordinated efforts of Instant_Dollars.
What Makes the Rik Reverb Fight So Challenging?
The Rik Reverb encounter has been notorious for its precise timing requirements and unique mechanics that force raiders to adapt quickly. Players have nicknamed successful defeats as getting "Rik Rolled" – a playful nod to both the boss name and the internet meme phenomenon.
Liquid Guild Pushes to 4/8 Mythic Progress
Not to be outdone, Liquid Guild achieved their own impressive milestone by defeating Stix Bunkjunker, described by Blizzard as a "tough" boss encounter. This victory propelled Liquid to 4/8 progress in the current mythic raid tier, placing them among the world's top progression teams.
Stix Bunkjunker, themed around garbage disposal and waste management, presents raiders with challenging environmental hazards and complex positional requirements. The fight has been compared to "cleaning up a mess while being attacked from all sides," making Liquid's achievement all the more impressive.
The guild's methodical approach to the encounter paid off, demonstrating why they remain one of the most respected raiding teams in World of Warcraft.
The Race Continues
With these weekend achievements, the mythic raid progression race intensifies. Four more bosses remain in the current raid tier, each likely presenting even greater challenges to the world's top guilds. The community eagerly anticipates which guild will ultimately claim the coveted world-first full clear.
These achievements highlight the vibrant competitive PvE scene that continues to thrive in World of Warcraft nearly two decades after its initial release, showcasing both the longevity of the game and Blizzard's commitment to creating engaging endgame content for dedicated players.
