We have sent more then a couple 10 man teams in for the last few weeks now to roughen this guy up and get some experience. 10 man kills are great, but nothing feels better then a 25 man style kill in our last attempt of the night vanquish style kill.
Where do I start? Searing seeds, engulfing flames, lava walls, fire elementals, meteors..there are so many things to die from. This fight takes patience, practice and pretty much a flawless execution. Just like Staghelm, we’ve had some good practice on him with a couple 10 mans now so really looking forward to this fight on 25.
First 10 man kill shot and video.
Again thanks Omgapriest for the video!

Legendary Staff Special Event
During the last two weeks we also got to participate in the special event to allow Isis to start receiving seething cinders towards his staff. Here are some screen shots of it. Congrats Isis..only 2-4 more months to go!
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Congrats everyone on our latest kill. It’s been a rough past month with attendance and having the right comp to even make any attempts. Thanks to all who have weathered out the rough season and a big welcome to our new faces.
