Surprisingly, tonight we 1 shotted Thorim 25 hard... which we wiped for hours in previous weeks! It wasn't the cleanest kill, we ended up kiting him for the last 5% when all the tanks died, but nevertheless....

Hodir 25 hard mode has been defeated after a night of attempts and getting people to learn how to manage their buffs properly. This is the first keeper to fall, hopefully Thorim will go down this reset too!

We downed Flame Leviathan 4 towers tonight in 3 attempts (super nerfed...), although the actual fight itself pre-nerf would have been easier than its 10 men counterpart due to having more people to do the same number of jobs.

We also killed XT on hard mode (that was only slightly nerfed), many grats to the guild who took part! Hopefully we get some more hard modes done this reset!

We killed Yogg-Saron with only 1 keeper up (One Light In The Darkness), thus completing Glory of Ulduar Raider and got our Rusted Proto Drakes!

After an intense night of wipes (and previous nights), Mimiron hard mode has been defeated and the door to Algalon opens!!! We are server second to reach Algalon 10 men (just lost to High Council by a margin)! Congratulations to the team, especially the healers who managed to 2 man healed the encounter! (Gz Trikz and Theonis!) With this hard mode down, we are just 1 more achievement away from Glory of Ulduar Raider (Yogg-3) and we will do it tomorrow!



Race to Algalon 10 server first kill begins with High Council!

Finally, after god knows how many hours of wipes, and when the vehicles stop bugging, and the moon was aligned with the right stars... we defeated Flame Leviathan with 4 towers up! That only leaves us 2 achievements away from Glory of Ulduar Raider!!

We are working slowly towards hard modes/glory of the ulduar raider achievement in 25 men. So far we did Stokin' the Furnace (4 mins Ignis) and Disarmed (Kologarn), and will be attempting Thorim hard and Council hard in the coming days.

Also killed Freya +1 today with iron roots guy up - which should simulate +3 quite well except lower damage intake.

We defeated General Vezax on hard mode today with only 3 tries, was very easy fight once you figured out the strategy. Crap loot tho...

We also did Yogg-Saron -1 (only 3 keepers helping). We were originally working on only 1 keeper up, but it was getting late and people are making stupid mistakes so we just did -1 and save it for next reset...

Unfortunately we still couldn't down Mimiron hard, but hopefully next reset we'll get a server first and first to access Algalon 10!

Today we defeated Freya hard mode (+3 Elders) with only 1 hour worth of try... it is far easier than one may expect.



We also played with Mimiron hard for a while... the progression step up from Freya or Thorim is so big... it feels like Sunwell material vs Karazhan when compared to the previous keeper's hard modes, but I have faith we will down it this reset and see Algalon!

XT-002 hard mode was 1 shotted today after nerf... I don't know what joke it was, but Blizzard either overtune or undertune things and can never find the balance. Hodir hard mode was 1 shotted again, and non-hard modes (but part of the Glory achievement) like Razorscale's and Kologarns were also completed.

We had a few tries on Mimiron hard and it indeed feels like a real challenge finally! With Mimiron, Freya, General, Yogg-Saron and Flame Leviathan's hard modes left... it should keep us busy for the rest of the week of no 25 men raid!
