Baleroc

After miles of trash and quickly knocking out Beth’tilac and Shannox we first set our attention on Baleroc. This encounter is harder to explain then to execute. After just a few attempts getting used to the crystals and rotations he was an easy kill. Congrats Priestpujols, Omgapriest and Gat for ranking in WOL on this fight.

Loot:

• Helm of Blazing Glory – Gat
• Helm of Blazing Glory– Gardorian
• Glowing Wing Bracers – Brave
• Glowing Wing Bracers – Aeralia
• Shatterskull Bonecrusher – Dravack 

Vanquish vs. Baleroc 25 Man

Lord Rhyolith

Lord Rhyolith was our next target of the week.  Over the last weekend we sent Gardorian off to get his captains certificate specializing in the steering of 2 very large feet.  Definately paid off and our whole driving team earned their licenses this week.  Pedestrians beware.

Loot:

• Heartstone of Rhyolith – Brave
• Incendic Chestguard – Andeana
• Grips of the Raging Giant – Xellus
• Hood of Rampant Disdain– Dravack
•  Hood of Rampant Disdain – Goldenarms

Alysrazor

Not sure which is harder, waiting to grab feathers until after our dps are skyborn or avoiding tornados.  Either way after some good practice we finally got both under control.  I wouldn’t call this a clean kill, but it was a good kill none the less.  A big thanks to our flyers  (especially Mer!) for knocking down the last few percent.

 Loot:

• Wings of Flame – Isis
• Alysrazor’s Band– Wako
• Craterflame Spaulders – Jexia
• Clutch of the Firemother – Xellus
• Moltenfeather Leggings– Dahnika

This week came patch 2.4 and it has been the smoothest patch so far. With this patch came the new raid instance Firelands. This outdoor style raid instance is quite impressive. Navigating through the trash packs, avoiding Shannox until we have a spot cleared, we learned a few things the hard way…but had a lot of fun doing so.     (btw…turtles are bad!)

Our First Kill of the week: Shannox

Rabies shots are recommended. I don’t think anyone made it through all the attempts without a little Rageface love. Once we got him somewhat tamed and learned to navigate through the traps Shannox went down with ease. Congratulations on the first kill of the patch.

Loot:

• Goblet of Anger – Mer
• Necklace of Fetishes – Jiayuan
• Scalp of the Bandit Prince – Traks 
• Treads of Implicit Obedience  – Jaroo
• Skullstealer Greataxe – Jiayuan

Our Second Kill of the week: Beth’tilac

Spiders, spiders everywhere. Ms Beth’tilac is definitely one scary looking spider, but this encounter looks harder then it was in the end. Coordination and research was key and it was apparent our team showed up ready for the job Thursday night. If everyone shows up this prepared for each boss, then they all will be falling this quick. Great job to all, and keep it up.

 Loot:

• Cinderweb Leggings – Dravack
• Arachnaflame Treads –  Gardorian
• Ward of the Red Widow – Jexia
• Widow’s Kiss -Goldenarms
• Spaulders of Manifold Eyes – Sadly to DE
