It's March! Let's update! - Ayr

3/5/2015

1 Comment

 
Here we are champions, right in the thick of Blackrock Foundry Progression!  With 8 out of the 10 bosses down in Heroic, progression has been awesome thus far!  We have been a little silent as of late, though, while we work out the website and find time to do stuff, but there are some important things to make sure everyone knows!

WELCOME BACK KARN!!!

Karn is back to tanking two nights a week for the team on progression nights, with me (Ayr!) taking over the off-tank duties on farm nights.  It is fantastic to get one of the founding members back into the swing of things, and already progress has been stellar as the synergy has returned!  The double brewmaster dream is perfect for farm nights because LOLSTAGGER.

WELCOME TO HUGEIDIOT AND BIGMOSS!!!

Two recruits of impeccable capability and panache.  Hugeidiot joins the healing team as our bubble-friendly dist priest, and Bigmoss as the new padawan-hunter who is challenging all our other DPS to up their game on those meters (promotion to Jedi status is pending on his ability to find a Kaiburr crystal for a lightsaber, that he can’t equip)!

On a less excited note, we have had to say a raiding farewell to some of our other members.  While we understand that life happens, it doesn’t mean that we won’t miss you in raid and your place as part of the team was appreciated.  You’ll be missed, but good luck finding that group that fits your schedule personal goals better!!!  So, good luck Jaide, and Amen!  

To end this update - recruitment continues strongly so we can field a team for Mythics again as we are below the minimum required number of raiders on our roster.  Recruitment needs are updated on the forums, in-game barks, and on the website as well.  Now is the perfect time to get in and trial and continue to push to the edges of our abilities!

Heroic Imperator Dead

1/16/2015

1 Comment

 
Well after a quick Mythic Kargath kill, we finally went back and paid some attention to Imperator and put him out of his misery.  Ironically enough, it came on a pull when mumble crashed on us.  Go figure that the thing holding us back was communication.  Maybe less focus on what is being said and more on what we know to do is the key.  Good job to all and congrats on the achievement, albeit, belated for what we are capable of.  

Onwards to Sunday, we're heading to Twins and can someone put out an ABP for Kalani?  Make sure to get into the new forums for discussion around strategy for this fight - the numbers are there, we just need to put it all together and Sunday will definitely be the night.

The Grind is Real

1/14/2015

With another week of raiding upon us, we're still at 1/7M.  Plans for the week will be to deliver a crushing blow to all of the Heroic bosses on Wednesday with hopes of taking down Kargath and finally those Twin Ogrons on Thursday.  Next on our platter will be Brackenspore.  

On another note - it is with great sadness that I have to report one of our officers is retiring from the team.  Prema has some personal matters to attend to and will no longer be raiding with us.  We wish her well with everything she has in front of her and I personally hope that all of you will stay in touch with her as she has been a driving force behind the recruitment and coordination for this team.  She will be sorely missed.  

With that said, we'll be opening recruitment with an eye specifically for exceptional raiders with a strong need for the following classes:

Elemental Shaman
Mistweaver Monk
Hunter
DPS Warrior
Disc Priest

Progression has occurred!  Normal Imperator; Mythic Kor'agh Down

12/18/2014

Great first two nights to our raid week.  Cleared farm content in Normal and Heroic very quickly and managed to kill two progression bosses: Normal Imperator Mar'gok and Heroic Kor'agh.  Great job by all involved!  The gear gods have been very kind to us as I'm happy to report we still have yet to shard a drop during this tier.  As a team we're over 656 ilvl which is fantastic.

This Sunday will definitely involve our first look at Mythic and possibly some attempts at Heroic Imperator. 
Happy Holidays to everyone and good luck on Sunday!  I'll be back from vacation to raid on the 28th!  We'll discuss the return of Groupme once our regular raid schedule resumes!

Raid Week #2 Down - Progress on Kor'agh...Incomplete

12/14/2014

0 Comments

 
Good efforts to take down Kor'agh.  Felt like we spent the first hour getting our bearings, the second hour learning how to stop taking avoidable damage and the third hour we saw some actual progress.  Had a 6% wipe that was bordering on a kill.  A couple of later attempts in the night that were super clean until a mishap or two took us out.  100% confidence we'll see this guy dead early into the next raid week!

Next week is our last full week of raiding until Jan 6th lockout.  Let's all plan to get in early and get ready to wipe the floor with Normal and clear through as much of the already cleared heroic content as possible on Wednesday.   Until then, here's a few a links to keep you busy:

5/7 Heroic Down

3 New Heroic Bosses Downed - Tectus, Brackenspore and Twin Ogrons

Great work by the team to take care of some unfinished business from Tectus last Sunday and to take out two new bosses in a fairly minimal amount of pulls.  Had some great individual performances on fights as several players ranked in the top 50 world numbers at the time on warcraftlogs.com.  Took a few attempts on Kor'agh to start fine tuning the strategy but no kill just yet.

6/7 Normal + 2/7 Heroic Downed

12/10/2014

It was a great night to head back into Highmaul.  We cleared all of our previously cleared content and downed Butcher Heroic for good measure.  Saw a number of DPS improvements and yet to shard any gear drops.  Seems like the Loot council is doing a pretty good job at sharing the wealth.

Some video keepsakes of the night (to the right) for the heroic kills. Down below is one of the more fun moments of the night.  Feels good to be back killing bosses again!

WELP... HM Night #1 Recap

So we killed Kargath!  Put in some effort to Tectus and hit enrage once but didn't manage to seal the victory.  A little more gear next week and we'll see how we stack up against these heroic bosses again.  Next raid night 5:30p - planning to roll through 6/7 in normals and collect some more loots!
