Despite the lack of website updates or killshots, we have made some nice progress over the last few weeks. In fact, we have killed all the watchers, and we're progressing nicely on General Vezax!

After a few nights of practice, 10 of our raiders managed to kill Yog-Saron! Congratulations to everyone involved! Special thanks to Kresh for his excellent raidleading!

Also, looks can be deceiving, but we apparently 4 manned him. Or perhaps we brought 4 rogues and 2 druids who are stealthing on this screenshot. Or perhaps people ran off right after the kill, to go brag in Dalaran, I don't know.

After 2 evenings of practice, we managed to free Freya. Free emblems, neat!

After banging our heads on the pull for an evening last week we we're quite confident we now knew how it was done. And after a few crappy pulls we finally got it down. And then it was a matter of enduring the rest of the fight. This puts us at 7/14 in Ulduar 25, not bad at all. We banged our head on Hodir for the rest of the evening, which seems quite doable now that we understand what's going on.

I'm very late in writing this, but last week we went back into ulduar after we had banged our head against XT and Razorscale for an evening. The increased enrage timer together with a solid tactic saw both going down quite quickly. Then we moved on for a few "let's see what happens" tries on Kologarn. But after the 3rd try we we're in such a good shape to downing him we went for a few more tries. And obviously on our last try of the night he throws up his arms and makes us a nice bridge.

Grats all those involved.

Oooh The glorious patch day, wrought with lag and Instance servers going down screaming and screeching, taking down everyone that is in their bellies. We should've learned by now that trying to raid a new instance on patch day might not be such a good idea, however after being bored to bits with the old content we we're craving for some new adventure.

And new it was! The healthy apprehension of PvP made sure only half of the raid had ever been in a WG like vehicle, so after a short description of what to expect we rushed to the vehicles climbed in and our small army of vehicles moves down the slopes into the churning legion that is the trash before Flame Leviathan.

We practised using our engines a bit by destroying a few towers (even though we started the encounter in normal mode), but by the second tower the lag got the better of us and we got disconnected. After about 1,5 hours though the instance server seemed to stabilize (or we got a different one) and so we went back. This time going straight for Flame Leviathan.

The fight is altogether fun enough to be wary of not falling of your chair laughing and wiping the raid. It took us two more practise goes to get used to "what the f*** is going on" and thus the third try went down pretty darn smooth.

Last week we nearly downed Sartherion with 3 drakes, but we couldn't quite get it done. Today we went back and the first try went better than last weeks best try. So a few tries later we got him down. All in all this fight is really enjoyable, it's hard paced and hectic for the first 3 minutes, and then a you just ride it home.

Congratulations for your new drake Indië!

And congratulations in Concordia, clearing all 25 man content including hard modes before the patch is what we set out to achieve a few months back. We're really proud of what we've accomplished.

After a few weeks of practicing, we have finally managed to kill Sartharion with three drakes alive! What a fight! A Big Fluffy Thanks to everyone who has practiced and wiped with us over the past weeks, especially to those who could not be around for our first kill. We will make sure to repeat this event a few times to get more of us the nice title.

With “The Undying” and “The twilight zone” completed, and failing “You don't have an eternity” on a second (honestly, 6:00 kills ftl), we are actually in really good shape to completing the “Glory of the Raider” achievements. I'm looking forward to a guild mounted on Proto drakes!

I promise, one of these days, we will participate in a workshop “Killshots for dummies”.

After two weeks of not getting passed Thaddius we changed to the 4 point strategy, this gave us the nescesarry edge to finally down him. Then it was just clearing Military wing, which is harder than it seems when all priests are lagging like hell. Still after 2 hours we had military wing cleared as well and we couldn't resist taking a look at Sapphiron.

Sapphiron is surprisingly easy when you have the right tactic and it only took us 1 try to get him down, so we urged on to Kel'Thuzad. And here we had such a promising first try we decided to go for anotherone with very little changes. And about 10 minutes of fighting later, we cleared Naxxramas.

This means we have only Malygos and Sartharion with 2 or 3 drakes up left for current content.

It has been a while since we have updated our news, and much has happened in the meantime. In the past month, we have been busy exploring Northrend and levelling to 80. And what a (long, strange) trip it's been! Blizzard really has excelled in creating many interesting, funny, and challenging events and encounters.

The raid content is truly magnificent. The return of Naxxramas must have brought back sweet memories from veterans, as well as an entertaining instance in itself for everyone who had not encountered it. The obsidian sanctum is fairly straightforward, although we have not tried killing him with add(s) alive - that's high on our list though! Making the enrage timer on Malygos proved to be a little tricky, but with a bit of practice on stacking dead sparks, we were soon looking at a happy red dragon and a dead blue dragon. Oh, if you thought making a screenshot of a normal bosskill was hard, try doing it when everyone is flying on a dragon. Behold:

Oh, and for completeness: yea we did Archavon too. /golfclap.
