Congratulations all on mastering this rather complex fight!
But Pyx forgot to make a screenie *bwap bwap bwap bwaaaaaaaa*
We had to wait quite some time during the raid, shortening it more to a mere 2-hour raid in reality, we still managed to get the first four bosses down in the new instance.
It was clear that the new instance on normal is a lot easier than firelands and infinitely easier than the t11 content. Hopefully the heroic modes will still pose a challenge.
Let’s kill the rest including deathwing on sunday!
Edit: fifth boss is down too now
Edit: and the sixth boss is down, two to go!
Edit: and the seventh boss is also down, one more!
Today we got our last heroic down before ragnaros and to top it off we got the glory achievement for the mount as well!
Congratulations all with your new mounts!
Look at Quik meditating and balancing at the same time on Egbert’s beak!
I said we would kill Baleroc on heroic today and we did!
It was quite tough and some people died, but we did make it within the enrage timer still and that’s what counts! At first positioning was a bit hard, especially with where the healers should stand. Ofcourse, also some luck was involved as the healers didn’t get linked to anyone with tormented, which was good.
Grats all to those that were there! Now we have just Beth left before we can start on Ragnaros! Tuesday we’ll do a quick raggie one-shot and next week we’ll focus fully on Beth hc from the start.
Our (temporary) nemesis is finally down! Unexpectedly, having four melee dps on the boss actually helped us get him down faster, while the ranged dps were still enough to handle other adds.
The steering went like a breeze as well with hard turns being a lot easier than with only two melee and we got him consistenly to phase 2. It just took some timing with the heroism/time warp to start just before the phase change while all dps focuses on the boss at that point to get there with few enough damage increase in the end.
On to baleroc and beth!
Thodos, stop drooling on the boss and turn around!
After a well-deserved raid break, we took it upon us again to tackle our first heroic boss and we delivered straight away. Without relying on exploits we simply got him down slowly but certainly. Luckily by the time I died, the boss was already almost dead and we burned him down with only 1-2 more deaths.
A very well done job all! On to the next heroic kill!
We’ll focus on rhyolith and majordomo heroic next. Since we already killed rhyolith on normal, we’ll try majordomo on sunday/tuesday. So, read up on the changed tactics. I’ll try to update it here and in the forum the next few days.
Forgot to make a picture again! Oh well, we can make one next time.
With the vacations and to allow some time to regroup to replenish our ranks for those that sadly had to leave us indefinitely, we’ll be having a break until 08/09/2011. Feel free to sign up as backups for raid group 2 which is just starting up now on wednesday/sunday/monday. You are also free to pug firelands e.g. and/or baradin hold during this time.
Although he’s not leaving us, Ametsuchi has found a new job which sadly doesn’t allow for a raiding hobby besides it. Therefore we’re looking for a replacement shaman or similar type of dps.
A guild has been created for the new MMO The Old Republic, so head on over there and apply for a spot if you intend to play this MMO when it comes out. We need 10 people at least to apply for guild testing so be quick!
