New Raid Team

Scott — Wed, 12 May 2010 08:32:43 +0000

Finally have a morning raid team going! Jason and I are going strong together in it. We’ve made our way to Queen in the first week together basically. We have a few that haven’t been in Icecrown Citadel yet and a chunk that have been partially through and one that’s been through it all seemingly.

We’ve made a few mistakes in fighting there, but we’ve all learned pretty fast and have adapted to the fights well. We play together on Wed/Fri/Mon mornings. I’d like to start an hour earlier but it’s not gonna work out for a few others. All the raid teams in have names.. since we are a morning crew fueled on copious amounts of coffee, we named our team:

Finish That Raid

Nice choice coming looks like. Should be able to extend the life of a raid instance for an extra week. I hope they allow you to change your mind during that 2nd week and start over fresh for that current week if you choose.

Champion of the Frozen Wastes!

Yup.. that’s me.. the champion. Vent exploded when we beat Malygos.. the annoying Aspect of Magic dragon had already enraged.. we had fallen quickly one after the other near the end of the fight. Malygos was flamed down to within a thin, thin thread of his life.. there was one lone person left alive, a second away from getting blasted out of the sky when the our fire boiling inside of the dragon ticked away the last 10k health and we won!

You can’t get any closer than that was.. I was already groaning inside about us losing with about one more tick of damage left to go.. but Maly didn’t get off that last attack and my eardrums nearly popped as we all screamed into vent over and over. This was our “last time” trying for the night after several attempts, some of which didn’t get out of phase two.

The gang that took the final boss in the game down.. Rossa (me you twit), Systine, Twizz, Moshinlizard, Rokmarines, Misuse, Biggerthanu, Stubbybaest, Dikshnizle and Deadkujm. I know Canada/KC crew was gonna plan on doing it Monday.. but with Cabo and Cantra’s anniversary (17 years is huge grats, not sure how you put up with him, Cantra) on Sunday.. figured that would push back our 10 man plans this week anyway.

Footsteps of Malygos and Black Ice dropped. I lost offspec roll on the polearm to Rokmarines.. it’s an amazing graphic on that thing! DRAT! =) I had the quest from key from neck from Sapphiron (follow that?) and chose the tanking neck Drakescale Collar. If I ever win the neck from heroic, I’ll probably take the healer neck from that.

Hard Mode

So the other day runnin around between Ironforge and Stormwind with Jason’s little dwarf.. gave me a little taste of the Alliance side. The short time we were goofin off was plenty for me but it did make me wanna go try one of the most difficult encounters in the game.. something usually reserved for Alliance players and I was jealous that the Horde side doesn’t get to enjoy this difficult event (maybe the most difficult in the game presently)….

Hogger with 3 gnolls up..

I kinda expected a title or at least an achievement.. sadly, no.
