'''Medivh''' is a french PvE realm.
'''Silencing Shot''' is a instant shot that deals 50% of ranged weapon damage and [[silence]]s the target for 3 seconds. It will interrupt spells being cast even if the target is immune to silence effects. The shot is off the [[global cooldown]], allowing it to used "in between" other shots. This has the side effect of making Silencing Shots a [[DPS]] increase even against targets who are not spell casters, as it deals damage without triggering the global cooldown.

==Server Progression==
==Improvements==
 
  +
===First Kills===
* [[Hawk Eye]] increases the range of Chimera Shot by 6 yards.
 
  +
:''Main article: [[/First Kills|First Kills]]''
* [[Focused Aim]] increases the chance to hit by 3%.
 
* [[Lethal Shots]] increases the critical strike chance by 5%. [[Master Marksman]] increases the chance by another 5%.
 
* [[Mortal Shots]] increases the critical strike damage bonus by 30%.
 
* [[Efficiency]] reduces the mana cost by 15%.
 
* [[Ranged Weapon Specialization]] increases the damage done by 5%.
 
   
  +
===Burning Crusade===
==Notes==
 
  +
:''Main article: [[/BC Progression|Burning Crusade]]''
* Many monsters, instance and [[raid]] bosses in particular, are immune to silence effects. Some are also immune to interrupts. Silencing Shot will still deal damage to them, and so is still worth using if you can spare the [[mana]].
 
* Does not share a cooldown with any other hunter abilities.
 
* The silence effect is considered to be an [[Arcane]]-based effect, meaning that mobs which are immune to Arcane magic will be immune to the silence effect. They still take full damage, however, as the shot deals physical damage.
 
   
==Tips and tactics==
+
===Wrath of the Lich King===
  +
====10-man Raid====
* Can be used to force caster mobs to move, as they will usually try to enter melee range when silenced. This can be useful to get them to walk onto traps or to get them into a bigger group of mobs so that you can use [[Volley]] on all of them. This is especially useful in instances.
 
  +
:''Main articles: [[/WotLK R10|WotLK R10]], [[/Ulduar R10|Ulduar R10]], [[/Crusaders' Coliseum R10|Crusaders' Coliseum R10]], [[/Icecrown Citadel R10|Icecrown Citadel R10]]''
* If nothing needs to be silenced during a fight, you can use Silencing Shot as soon as it comes off cooldown to increase your DPS. This will however cost a significant amount of mana.
 
* Especially useful to prevent healers from healing your target in [[PvP]], buying you a few extra seconds to get that [[Kill Shot]] off.
 
   
==Patch changes==

* {{Patch 3.2.0|note=This ability will also apply a 3 second interrupt effect against non-player controlled targets, making it more versatile against creatures immune to silencing effects.}}
 
* {{Patch 3.0.2|note=This spell will now interrupt the current spell being cast on the target and lock out that school for 3 sec if the target is immune to silence effects.}}
 
* {{Patch 2.0.6|note=Silencing Shot now does only 50% of weapon damage instead of 75%.}}
 
* {{Patch 1.7.0|note=The tooltips for quick Hunter shots have been updated to show them as instant abilities.}}
 
* {{Patch 1.5.0|note=Special ability shots no longer add the ranged weapon speed or take into account ranged weapon haste when determining the actual cooldown. The tooltip and cooldown timers should now properly reflect the actual cooldown.}}

==Gates of Ahn'Qiraj Event==
{{Classfooter|Hunter}}
 
  +
With the release of [[Patch 1.9.0]], the [[Gates of Ahn'Qiraj]], Medivh quickly organized its forces, led by <One Shot> and <Equilibre> (now known as <Discovery>) and joined by the some of the high end guilds of the server. As Reez from <One Shot> got the {{item|Head of the Broodlord Lashlayer}} shortly before Soph from <Equilibre>, they both wanted to complete {{item|The Scepter of the Shifting Sands}} : <One Shot> for being the first to loot the head, <Equilibre> for thinking <One Shot> maybe wouldn't be able to complete the Scepter (the {{item|Red Scepter Shard}}, being acquired by a timed run from [[Vaelastrasz]] to [[Nefarian]] in less than 5 hours, was still far from both guilds competing for a Nefarian first kill). The head holders agreed to wait for each other for the quest completion, though, shortly after <Equilibre> got its head.
[[Category:Hunter abilities]]
 
  +
  +
Thus both guilds started their own 36,000 {{item|Silithid Carapace Fragment}} farming effort, <Equilibre> being helped by some guilds like <Firehunters> while <One Shot> only had the help of a few individuals.
  +
  +
With a portion of Alliance focusing on the scepter, the progress on the [[Gates of Ahn'Qiraj#Gathering war supplies|War Effort]] between the two factions was significantly different. Due to the significant numerical differences between Horde and Alliance (2-4 alliance per 1 horde), it became obvious that the Alliance would finish significantly ahead unless something was done. The solution was to funnel materials via the neutral [[Auction House]].
  +
  +
<Equilibre> got a lead on Nefarian kills and completed the red Scepter fragment, then decided that the Gates would be opened on Thursday 6th April 2006 at 2pm, giving <One Shot> a week to finish its Scepter, a daunting task as <One Shot> had just finished its carapace farming and thus hadn't any scepter fragment yet. Yet they managed to do it barely on time, to the price of a lot of efforts and a bit of luck : a server and instance reset on friday, while they were before Nefarian, gave them enough warmup to achieve a clean 3h15 red fragment run on Sunday.
  +
  +
===Opening controversy===
  +
{{i-note|This section has been, and is still subject to much controversy. Read at your own risks.|Note}}
  +
  +
The first to gong was decided by a Random 100 on the very last moment, on the initiative of Reez, between the two Scepter holders at 1:45 pm. The rationale behind the roll was that :
  +
# Holders agreed to wait for each other when they started
  +
# Both guilds put tremendeous efforts in the quest chain, especially <One Shot> to finish on time
  +
# One holder started the quest chain first (the other could have not started it and chosed a common effort) while the other ended it first (the other could have stopped its quest to not delay the opening) : both had a disputed legitimacy
  +
# While they agreed to ring together, it was clear that the game wouldn't allow for a simultaneous gong : one had to be chosen
  +
# Both would get the [[Scarab Lord]] title anyway
  +
  +
The human paladin Reez of <One Shot> won the roll versus the human priest Soph of <Equilibre>, thus rang first, causing a stir amongst <Equilibre> and their supporters, who thought <Equilibre> deserved to ring first for their Scepter completion, in part because Soph didn't tell about the (lost) roll to his guildmates.
  +
  +
As the bang was heard, the server came crashing down : Unending Event --> GM --> Reboot --> Amputated Event.
  +
  +
Both Reez and Soph got the Scarab Lord title and {{item|Black Qiraji Resonating Crystal}} without GM intervention, as there is a 10 hours window after the first gong for others to complete their quest.

Gates of Ahn'Qiraj Event

With the release of Patch 1.9.0, the Gates of Ahn'Qiraj, Medivh quickly organized its forces, led by <One Shot> and <Equilibre> (now known as <Discovery>) and joined by the some of the high end guilds of the server. As Reez from <One Shot> got the Spell shadow curseoftounges [Head of the Broodlord Lashlayer] shortly before Soph from <Equilibre>, they both wanted to complete Inv hammer 25 [The Scepter of the Shifting Sands] : <One Shot> for being the first to loot the head, <Equilibre> for thinking <One Shot> maybe wouldn't be able to complete the Scepter (the Inv misc gem ruby 03 [Red Scepter Shard], being acquired by a timed run from Vaelastrasz to Nefarian in less than 5 hours, was still far from both guilds competing for a Nefarian first kill). The head holders agreed to wait for each other for the quest completion, though, shortly after <Equilibre> got its head.

Thus both guilds started their own 36,000 Inv misc monsterscales 13 [Silithid Carapace Fragment] farming effort, <Equilibre> being helped by some guilds like <Firehunters> while <One Shot> only had the help of a few individuals.

With a portion of Alliance focusing on the scepter, the progress on the War Effort between the two factions was significantly different. Due to the significant numerical differences between Horde and Alliance (2-4 alliance per 1 horde), it became obvious that the Alliance would finish significantly ahead unless something was done. The solution was to funnel materials via the neutral Auction House.

<Equilibre> got a lead on Nefarian kills and completed the red Scepter fragment, then decided that the Gates would be opened on Thursday 6th April 2006 at 2pm, giving <One Shot> a week to finish its Scepter, a daunting task as <One Shot> had just finished its carapace farming and thus hadn't any scepter fragment yet. Yet they managed to do it barely on time, to the price of a lot of efforts and a bit of luck : a server and instance reset on friday, while they were before Nefarian, gave them enough warmup to achieve a clean 3h15 red fragment run on Sunday.

Opening controversy

Note
Note: This section has been, and is still subject to much controversy. Read at your own risks.

The first to gong was decided by a Random 100 on the very last moment, on the initiative of Reez, between the two Scepter holders at 1:45 pm. The rationale behind the roll was that :

  1. Holders agreed to wait for each other when they started
  2. Both guilds put tremendeous efforts in the quest chain, especially <One Shot> to finish on time
  3. One holder started the quest chain first (the other could have not started it and chosed a common effort) while the other ended it first (the other could have stopped its quest to not delay the opening) : both had a disputed legitimacy
  4. While they agreed to ring together, it was clear that the game wouldn't allow for a simultaneous gong : one had to be chosen
  5. Both would get the Achievement zone silithus 01 [Scarab Lord] title anyway

The human paladin Reez of <One Shot> won the roll versus the human priest Soph of <Equilibre>, thus rang first, causing a stir amongst <Equilibre> and their supporters, who thought <Equilibre> deserved to ring first for their Scepter completion, in part because Soph didn't tell about the (lost) roll to his guildmates.

As the bang was heard, the server came crashing down : Unending Event --> GM --> Reboot --> Amputated Event.

Both Reez and Soph got the Scarab Lord title and Inv misc qirajicrystal 05 [Black Qiraji Resonating Crystal] without GM intervention, as there is a 10 hours window after the first gong for others to complete their quest.

They seem to be led by their most famous flooder : the tauren druid know as Tauric. MFF's members spend a lot of time flooding Medivh's official forum, and flood-raiding realms forums of Nemesis' battlegroup.
The MFF is divided in many sections including :
