I was told that throium brotherhood item are pointless for MC, because elysium nurfed the fire damage mobs/boss do. is that true ? if so doesnt elysium supposed to be vanilla like ?

yes and no.

 

first of all the server run on 1.12 

 

i dont know which patch but :  something about 1.5-1.9 patch blizzard changed the mechanic how magic resistance worked.

that means:

- we are playing on a server with another game mechanic for magic resistance as for  MC was developed

- we have 1.12 talents which means it is way easier for the healers to heal against that incoming dmg and many dd´s does more dmg with the same gear

- everyone knows the boss mechanics.

back in the days in my mc raid before that change everyone had to get 140 fireresistance without buffs( lbrs/aura /totem) for Ragnaros. Tanks had to have 220 + unbuffed not to get oneshotted.

we wiped about 3 weeks at ragnaros because we had not enough dps before enrage! 

last week i killed him the first time in the first try with my guild( was a pug with 3 little guilds , second week mc ) at Elysium PvP

only 1 tank had 140 fireresistance. and we killed him 3 minutes before enrage! so noone had much  mc gear at all.

 

the dmg and the mechanic of ragnaros is defenitely the same as in vanilla days, its just the scrambled things of patches and mechanics to early vanilla.

 

but be aware of aq 40 and nature resistance, i bet that will be a guildbreaker :)
