So what else is there to do besides farming raid content over and over and over? Raid achievements, that’s what! After getting a strategy down that worked for us earlier in the week, we came back from the weekend break and one-shot Sartharion with all three of his drakes up on pull to earn our pretty new titles. I’m assuming we’ll now be moving on to more and more raid achievements just to keep things interesting. Stay tuned.

What do Malygos and all of the Horde leaders have in common? THEY’RE ALL DEAD!

A good way to cap off the raid-week if you ask me. A 10-man strat test/kill followed up immediately by a 25-man kill. What a crazy fun fight this was. It’s practically Onyxia for a new generation. I love bosses with no trash to kill!

My my, what a busy week this was (so far!!) Only the second Friday after the release of Wrath and we clear Naxxramas as soon as we had enough level 80s to do it, and a server first to boot!

It was a lot of fun, even though I was falling asleep through run backs on Four Horsemen. Twice I actually woke up to hear “OMG Malki wake up!” and Doms even had to shake me awake once (hah!). Sapphiron was a blast, and not having to wear frost resist gear is a big plus. Kel’Thuzad was amazing… mostly because it was my first, even though the guild has done it many times pre TBC and post TBC. I always missed it, so it was extra fun for me.

Oh the joys of raiding with the guild again! I didn’t grats anyone on dinging, I am not here to validate you! I did, however, grats them in my own way by way of a raid invite. Was nice to finally get enough together to do some real content, no 10 man crap is not real content. After the short trip to a 10 man to finish off the last two bosses we decided to get what people we had on and do 25 man Naxx with any number we got just to do something, ended up started with 21 and after two wing clears and some attempts on Patchwerk, ended with 24.

Plate drops in Naxx were about the most insane thing I have seen. Every boss dropped at the very least 1 plate item, I think our first Death Knight at 80 (Dari) pretty much cleaned up on bosses even a random trash drop if I recall.

Well we looked at our roster and noticed we had just enough to skim off 10 people and drag them to a 10 man Naxxarams on Monday, we got two wings down; Spider and Plague. Then returned for a 10 man on Tuesday, and Finished all four wings with a Kill on Sapphiron and Kel’Thuzad first thing Wednesday. For some of the guild it was the first Naxx clear post patch.

10 Man Naxxarams Cleared

Last night they rounded up 10 more people and pulled off a 10 man version of The Obsidian Sanctum – with a kill on Sartharion. I am not sure of the loot table, but I will get that from the guild later.

While the majority of the server was trying to find their way out of Borean Tundra, or some still trying to figure out how to turn in the horse, once most people pushed out of BT or HJ the race was not really a race as much as it was just nice that there wasn’t 30+ people in the zone trying to gank the quest mob the fastest.

We had some who were focused and ready to get some realm firsts. Most of us scheduled days off in advanced for the push to 80, while others prepared with pot of coffee at the ready with scheduled naps and alarm clocks we very ready to get it done and over with.
