Epicus Maximus

Epicus Maximus is a legacy encounter in the Brawler's Guild and requires the use of a challenge card to fight.
The party is composed of:
*Epicus Maximus, an elite flying shark equipped with two rockets and a laser beam.
*And a Dinosaur, a rare elite devilsaur. He rides on Epicus Maximus's back.
*ROCK ON, an elite Forsaken with the Arcanite Ripper, identical in appearance to Bergrisst. He rides on And a Dinosaur's back.
The trio can also be seen flying above the water wall on the northwestern edge of Nazjatar, north of Bloodfin Village and west of the Zanj'ir Terrace. They circle a large area that is mostly out of bounds, but they periodically fly close enough to the edge of the water wall to be seen by players.

==Strategy==
Interrupt Blue Crush, kite around the Destructolaser, and don't stand in the Pure Rock'n Roll.
This encounter, like most in the Brawler's Guild, has a two minute enrage timer, so 87.2KDPS will be required for victory.

==Beta appearance==
Epicus Maximus, the Paragon of Epicosity, originally appeared in the Cataclysm beta, circling above the Maelstrom in front of Thrall and Aggra. The shark-dinosaur-Forsaken combination was added in response to a forum thread in which beta testers complained that the area wasn't epic enough. Lead World Designer Alex Afrasiabi initially replied to the thread with:
A few hours later, Afrasiabi returned to the thread to announce the addition of more epicness to the zone:
Epicus Maximus was added to the Maelstrom in the following beta build. The trio was removed before Cataclysm went live but made a cameo in the Uldum zone, where the Holographic Projector used to subjugate some cursed engineers will sometimes display the trio and play some epic background music.
==Mousepad==
An official mousepad of the Epicus Maximus trio illustrated by Greg Capullo was produced by SteelSeries for sale exclusively at BlizzCon 2011.
:Product description: Have Epicus Maximus, the mythical creature from the Cataclysm Beta, beneath under the palm of your hand! This epic-sized gaming QcK+ mousepad from SteelSeries will be premiering at this year's BlizzCon, available only while these supplies last. Guaranteed to be a collector's item!
==Trivia==
*The laser beam attached to the shark's head is likely a homage to the movie Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery, which had the film's antagonist furious that he couldn't acquire "frickin' sharks with frickin' laser beams attached to their heads". Or Austin Powers: Goldmember where the film antagonist's son actually gets him "Sharks with frickin' laser beams attached to their frickin' heads."
