Catching Up…

We’ve had a few more fatalities, and accompanying shiny purples, since the last post.     And now we’re spending some more time in Blackwing Descent, Sunday’s raid saw this:   That puts us at 5/12 for Tier 11; Maloriak and Chimaeron are on...
First Deaths of Cataclysm!

First Deaths of Cataclysm!

First raid boss deaths, that is. Wednesday night saw us excitedly traipsing off to Blackwing Descent to face Magmaw the Big Red Fire Worm as our first raid encounter since Deathchin broke the world. It took us a little while to get into the rhythm of things again, especially with the very revamped class mechanics that Cataclysm brought us.   It didn’t take long for Magmaw to take a dive, though… …followed by Halfus on Sunday night, with extra-special congrats to Warnie for leading his first progression raid.   In other news, we’re recruiting! We’re very close to having enough for 25s, and let’s face it, 25s are more fun than 10s! Expect a proper recruiting update shortly, but in the meantime, we’re particularly after healers and possibly some DPS for...
We’re Not Dead! (But Lots Of Bosses Are.)

We’re Not Dead! (But Lots Of Bosses Are.)

This is a temporary placeholder post to tell the world that no, we’re not dead — we just have a very slack guild blogger (i.e. me). So, what have we been up to since last I updated? Well, we got up to Mimiron in Ulduar-25 when we lost a pile of raiders to various RL issues all in one fell swoop, and we took a hiatus from Ulduar and went off to clear ToC-10 instead. We farmed ToC-10 and Ony-10 and -25 until 3.3 brought us Icecrown Citadel. Once we had the numbers, we cleared Marrowgar, Deathwhisper, the Gunship, and Saurfang in quick succession in 25-man Icecrown, but we haven’t had the numbers to make consistent progress beyond the Lower Spire. So instead, we’ve brutalized the place in 10-mans; Sindragosa and Putricide fell to us a couple of weeks ago, and we’re working on the Lich King fight now. It’s very exciting! ;-) So that’s what we’ve been up to. I’ll post some backdated updates with kill shots as soon as I get the chance. In the meantime, if you’re interested in joining us, check out our recruitment page for more info – we’re very keen for a few more DPS and...

Catching up!

Not with content, but with blog updates! So, what have we been up to for the last few months? Well, after downing Malygos, we finished off Sartharion +2D, and farmed Naxx until Ulduar’s release. Unfortunately, attrition thinned out our ranks just as Ulduar was released, and apart from killing Flame Leviathan we struggled for enough numbers to put a raid together – although on April 22nd we did get the server first Orbital Bombardment (Flame Leviathan +1 tower hardmode). In mid-May, however, our numbers recovered and we swung back into action – seven bosses down in eight weeks. Now we’re currently at 8/14 Ulduar, with Freya on notice. The next few weeks should be fun and loot-filled! Recruitment reminder! We’re still open for recruitment – we’re currently looking for 2-3 extra DPSers to round out the raiding...
