Quick update, haven’t been doing it lately due to me forgetting to. We’ve gotten a couple of achievements, some associated with hardmodes and others not so much. First off, Ignis speed kill that was followed by a XT hardmode kill. We also got 4 tower Flame Levi and we’re a hair away from getting Hodir hardmode. (Need people to show up so we can stop running healers as DPS). We were able to get the cache but not the achievement for some reason. I still find that odd. But anyhow, we will be working to finish off Hodir and than be moving on to Thorium, which we’ve worked on a little.

Last week a bunch of us went into Ulduar 10 man and cleared everything for the first time. We never really gave 10 mans any serious effort so it was a first for the guild to have a group kill Yogg. This week, after a few weeks of learning, our 25 man raid team was able to vanquish Yogg with ease. It was probably the cleanest first kill we’ve ever had, or at least I can remember. Phase 1 and 2 were clean and DPS stepped it up and were able to destroy the Crushers and the Brain quickly. Phase 3 had everyone do their parts almost perfectly with only 2 deaths due to some aggro issues with the immortals. We now move into sole position of 2nd place for Horde side on Arthas and 5th overall on the server. We will be working hard in order to keep our standing.

We’re one boss away from clearning Ulduar after this weeks raids. Mimiron and Vezax were both killed by us on wednesday night. We got a whole night on Yogg Saron before our raid week was finished. Our raid apparently lusts for green clouds. After Yogg we’ll be working on hard modes for Ulduar.

Another week another pair of boss downings to announce. First off we decided to get Ignis out of the way, good thing we did since he’s been nerfed to oblivion it seems. One shot that STD spreading guy with little effort. His STD spreading trash was harder then him. Next up was Thorim and his amazing gauntlet / arena combo! Not only do you have to run a gauntlet, which we all love since the beginning of BWL, but you also have to do an arena with waves and waves and waves of mobs! We gave attempts in on Voltron but of course he was bugged and decided to continuously burn us past phase 2. On Thursday, with numerous healers missing and two bandaid healers Saniss (Shadow Priest) and myself (Enhancement Shaman), we got Voltron to 1% with head and body dead before the head decided to heal. I expect Voltron down by next week. Stay tuned!

Second week of Ulduar and we’re well into the new raid content. This week we added quite a few new boss kills to our progression. First up was Iron Council and Kologarn on Tuesday. Than on Wednesday we got Auriaya, Hodir and lastly Freya. Looking forward to the rest of the bosses remaining in the instance.

Finally had stable servers and we were able to work on two new bosses. First one to go down was Razorscale, who apparently liked to set Tinhorn on fire. Next up was XT-002 Deconstructor, he had previously escaped Moklok’s closet of the damned and began to run amok in Ulduar screaming about bending things in the wrong way. No one wanted to ask what exactly happens within Moklok’s closet of death. So to summerize, fire chases Tinhorn for Razorscale while gravity well / light bombs chase Cinnabon. Grats to all involved! More boss downings coming soon!

3.1 is upon us and we survived all the server crashes to quickly one shot Flame Leviathan on normal mode. Was clearing trash to Ignis when the instance servers decided to blow up. Hopefully we’ll be able to actually raid tonight! Grats to everyone who got loot.

Had 2 nights of attempts on Sartharion with 3 drakes up and we were able to finish off the final challenge that is available until patch 3.1. Congratulations go out to the entire raid team who helped us push through content and a big congratulations go out to Shiro who became the first member of RTZS to recieve a Twilight Drake mount. We all look forward to Ulduar and the challenges that lay ahead with each new content patch after that.

After 2 raid nights on Malygos we were able to defeat the spellweaver in his own domain. With the current content clear we look forward to gearing up for the next set of raid instances. Grats to everyone involved with the kill.

This week we finally started full 25 man Raids and we quickly cleared 25 man Obsidian Sanctum and then decided to step into the Wintergrasp raid as well. Also along the raid week we cleared 25 man Naxx with little problems. Malygos attempts happening soon hopefully.
