Last night, March 13th, Death and Taxes of the US realm Korgath, defeated The Lurker Below. Though they claim this is not the first time that they've killed him - hence showing two sets of loot - he was also killed last week.

Death and Taxes - The Lurker Below

Apparently there's a bit of a rivalry brewing between Death and Taxes and the EU guild Nihilum, as you can see from the quote below:

> Actually we killed it last week too, hence the double loot in the pic, but we didn't know whether it was a trash mob or an actual boss, we were waiting for a confirmation from Europe. Apparently they seem unable to tell us so we decided to post anyway.

Congratulations on the kill D&T - we here at Curse are looking forward to your future kills!

    It's certainly likely AirForceElite.

    Must be a clown-worthy fight, as far as relative difficulty of bosses goes.

    D&T is defo on it's way to become unreachable on world firsts. Unless they get stuck somewhere ofc.

    Job well done D&T, keep those world firsts coming! Show the world the power of the alliance.

    Basically, this shouldn't be shown as a World First.

    Why? Because the EU version of this boss is completely bugged, im not sure on the details but I believe it's something to do with the spawning mechanism.

    Thus, this should be displayed as US First, and when EU get a kill, it should be called an EU first.

    How come they don't know if it is a trash mob or an actual boss?

    no they know its a real boss. The whole reason for the comment is that nihilum have been like "was this even a boss?!" on all bosses this far in serpentshrine.

    Kiltek: Nihilum killed The Lurker Below yesterday, so I'm sure he was in as much of a working order there as on US servers. :)

    Iamjack: It's a running joke - Nihilum compared Fathom Lord Karathress to a trash mob in Serpenshrine Cavern, to try to debunk Death and Taxes' World First Kill of that encounter, so D&T kind of carried that over to this kill as well. ;)

    After doing a bit of research(and the fact that D&T killed him last week as well, before any hotfixes were applied), I'm going to leave this as-is with the World First Kill title. If anyone has objections, please feel free to post them, but as it stands they defeated the encounter while it was bugged and had a chance to despawn, evade, etc. as well.
