4.0 patch fixed 2 majors bugs which nearly all previously recorded kills abused:
(1) The bug where summoning too many units (usually whelp eggs) will cause Onyxia to stop summoning her own mobs has been fixed. This bug was the most exploited bug to clear Onyxia easily (but not used in our previous video clear).
(2) The bug where Whelp Eggs when knocked back into the river could be invulnerable in Phase 3, causing the Warders to infinitely get stuck hitting them, has been fixed.
This is a clear post 4.0 without using any of the old bugs and with increased Onyxia's gold regeneration (buffed patch in patch 3.X around December 2023)
I got the clear in only 3 attempts since I switched running Whelp Eggs to Pyromancer. You can see at the start of the video my previous round was a close round where I timed out after killing both Warders, so I continued and got an awesome early phase 3 which allowed me to kill her with 30 seconds to spare.
Apologies for the lack of game sound, something went wrong with the recording.
Spam pauses at the end because this clear was taken just before sleep and my brain wasn't functioning anymore - taking a much longer to think through the brain fog
