Anub'arak
Despite the best efforts of our raiders and their terrible connections, this guy finally died.
Update: Now done with 50 attempts left. Such an epic display of true skill, to kill stuff you've already killed, but without wiping...
Balls, balls, balls
This fight is actually fun, slightly redeeming the utter failure that the circus raid otherwise is.
We killed Yogg-Saron with one keeper up as well. Not exactly hard anymore now, we just never really got around to doing it :P
Update: Years behind on this, but Yogg+0 done too. Grats on the weird looking mount Inf!
It burns when I Pee Vee Pee
The Faction Champions fight was already horrible and annoying on normal mode, so it wasn't really a surprise that it was even worse on hard mode. Tip for Blizzard: if I enjoyed getting ganked by death knights, I would be in an arena team.
Hattrick!
We made Algalon see the error of his ways, and then proceeded to kill the beasts and Jaraxxus in the hard mode circus tent.
25 little Firefighters
This is an extremely fun fight, and, dare I say, hard. Well done everyone!
Now we've got the Algalon key done, but don't expect any miracles there, because frankly our internet connections are terrible.
Freya submitted
An attempt at a speed clear went very wrong when we found out that skipping her trash makes Freya harder! That was a nasty surprise. We still managed to get the loot in the end though, quite a fun fight actually :)
Algalon 10 man
Apparently it's impossible to get a stable internet connection in the UK and other third world countries, so this kill took us a while. The 1 hour despawn timer didn't help - Blizzard learned nothing from Vaelastrasz.
Vezax crashed and burned
Unfortunately I fell asleep here. Others informed me afterwards that we killed the boss though.
Also, congrats Kreel on finally completing Val'anyr (yeah, we have awesome luck with loot)!
Thorim got a divorce
Just like everything in life, this fight is harder when women are involved. Fortunately for us, Thorim's wife wasn't that hot, so it was fairly easy to make him see sense.
Steelbreaker had an accident
After the summer slack, we decided to do Iron Council. Turns out no one remembered what order to kill them in! Sheesh, what a mess. Oh well, at least we got an achievement.
Ice ice, baby
We killed the same boss as before, but faster. Whoa.
Worthless vehicle bullshit, Glory of the Ulduar Raider
Wow. I have no words to describe the unbelievable incompetence and stupidity of the guy who thought putting vehicles in raid instances would be a good idea. I really am at a complete loss. After a few pulls on this piece of shit, I slowly began to lose my sanity, as well as what little faith I had left in humanity.
This boss alone has more bugs than Windows Me and Vista combined, which is certainly an impressive feat. Add to that the absolutely worthless vehicle system that was designed by a monkey on LSD, and Blizzard's proprietary Random Number Generator (which is really a Same Number Generator) and you have a recipe for torture that Josef Mengele could have learned a thing or two from. Fuck. Vehicle. Fights.
On a more positive note, a few of us completed the Glory of the Ulduar Raider achievement some days ago, so that we can now pretend to be AFK on Krasus' landing like all the cool kids.
We broke his heart
Nerf a boss enough, and eventually even our 'special' people will manage to kill it.
Yogg-Saron down
Hmmm, tentacles everywhere... oh yes, I like that!
Dr. Zoidberg down
Wobuwubowoob!
Yeah, there's no Vezax in the screenshot. Either he vanished immediately, or we forgot to take a screenshot after killing him. One of the two.
Also killed the same boss on 10 man hard mode, which was actually a challenge.
Mimiron, Thorim, Freya
We actually killed Freya last week, but I was too lazy to update the site. Anyway, here are the detailed reviews of the Mimiron and Thorim fights: Mimiron is awesome. Thorim is a dickweed.
Also did Thorim and Hodir hard mode on 10 man.
Yogg-Saron 10 man down
I was going to make a pun involving 'yogurt' here, but then I found out everyone else had already done it. Pretty disappointing fight for an end boss, but then again it wasn't hard mode so we'll see.
Some more
My sincerest condolences go out to the families of Ignis, Hodir, Auriaya and the Iron Council. Well, technically Hodir isn't dead, but his ugly face makes me feel sorry for his family anyway.
Also killed Mimiron and General Vezax on 10 man.
Arm wrestling with Kologarn
The situation got out of hand. We went out on a limb. We engaged in hand to hand combat with Kologarn. We got involved in an arms race with Kologarn. We were armed to the teeth. We beat Kologarn hands down. We disarmed Kologarn. Kologarn was not armed against our attacks. Kologarn paid an arm and a leg. Kologarn got fucked by the long arm of the law. Kologarn got shot in the arm. Kologarn was up in arms about it.
Deconstructor deconstructed, Razorscale shot down
Every once in a while, there's a bomb boss. Geddon, Solarian, and now this guy. Traditionally, we have been particularly awful at these kind of bosses, and this one proved to be no exception. The fact that he has not one but two bombs didn't help either.
We also killed Razorscale, definitely a hard fight deserving of a screenshot. Or wait, no it isn't.
Update: Kologarn, Auriaya, Freya, Thorim, Iron Council and Hodir down on 10 man as well.
New stuff
Yes yes, Ulduar is out. We've killed a few bosses on 10 man, and in the unlikely case that the servers become stable anytime soon, we might kill some more on 25 man as well. I'll put up some screenshots later. Maybe.
Also recruiting again, check the forums!
Less people, more drakes!
Same thing again, now on 10 man.
Shammles stole my drake mount. On an unrelated note, if you are looking for a restoration shaman, please contact me - I may be able to help you.
Sartharion and company ran out of breath (haha, pun!)
A proper boss fight in this expansion, where you don't kill the boss on the first pull? Who would have thought? Here it is! Raiding has taken a dramatic new direction, going from 'don't stand in the fire' to 'don't stand in the void zone'. Some people had trouble adapting to this shocking new strategy, but we managed to get a kill in the end.
Fusior got the drake mount, congrats!
Malygos down... again
This is what killshots look like when they put all the loot in a tiny box in the middle.
Naxxramas cleared... again
Malygos down
On the whole, this fight isn't too bad - it's certainly a bigger challenge than the bosses in Naxxramas. Shame that phase 3 is mostly a fight against Blizzard's buggy UI and pet bar. Yeah, we know you guys can make pet bars now, but please leave them out of boss fights.
'25 man raiding'
Well, actually more like 20 man raiding. Killed Sartharion, Anub'Rekhan, Faerlina, Maexxna, Noth and Heigan. For screenshots of the bosses, see below. Heh heh heh. Still recruiting!
Naxxramas cleared
Just like before, these two fights are still the most boring of all Naxxramas. Oh well, epics.
Four Horsemen and Thaddius down
...So where's the screenshot for Four Horsemen? Good question. I forgot to take one. Maybe someone else has a screenshot that I'll add later. Or I can make a realistic impression in MS Paint. Post applications and maybe you will get to stand next to me in the killshot of the next easy boss!
Update: Kreel sent me an excellent screenshot that clearly shows the corpses of the Four Horsemen, as well as the raid members involved in the kill. Thanks!
I'm too tired to think of a title for this one
Killed Sartharion, Patchwerk, Grobbulus and Gluth. No, I didn't mess up the Patchwerk screenshot - the infamous frogger slimes are now harder than the actual boss.
More stuff
Faerlina, Maexxna, Gothik, Noth, Heigan and Loatheb down - hard instance indeed.
Here we go again
I guess this means we're raiding again? Whatever it is we're doing, we went to have a quick look at the 'new' Naxxramas and ended up killing Anub'Rekhan and Razuvious. I won't pretend they were hard, but then again we didn't bring 10 people.
