No news to post about for ages then we kill a dragon and forget to tell about it. Old news by now but we killed Halion on the Sunday of the first lockout he was available. We probably won’t have the setup we like to attempt 25 hardmode before the summer is over.

Bring on the Lich King!
A lack of members recently had led to some weeks of poor raiding. Before this lockout we received a lot of new members from Morior Invictus which gave us an ideal setup of players. After finally being able to field a full raid nam managed to complete the remaining hardmode wingbosses, Sindragosa and the Professor Putricide, this lockout. Now all that remains is the Lick King, the hard version!

Fall of the Lich King.
Worst kill EU has sort of been the mantra for us during progress in Icecrown Citadel, and by no means was the last fight in normal mode any different. The Lich King, the last hurdle before hard modes, was slightly annoying. After lots of tries with little progress, and the Olympics on TV, we were ready to call it quits. But a slight change in tactic suddenly meant some progress and finally, in what has to be the worlds sloppiest kill, it was RP tiem!
The HWL got a new sword and Bowjo got a polearm.
Possible the first time since Nefarian we have all posed for a screenshot.
In other news, we are recruiting a whole lot of classes! Head on over to the forum if you would like to hang out with us.

Here be dragons.
The server made it fairly hard to raid this lockout. We killed one of the new bosses fairly early on Thursday, but because of various issues we didn’t get to try Sindragosa before Tuesday, last day of the lockout. It started out ok, got some tries on her and had some small progress, but then she decided to bug out. After having to soft reset the instance, she worked again, and we killed her quite late in the evening. Another Worst Kill Eu for us there, but down is down so whatevs.
Someone had hidden Cardiz' mount under the dragon corpse.
Unfortunately it was pretty late, and even though we had plenty of tries left there was no time to try the Lich King himself. Hoping for a better server this week, fingers feathers crossed!

Bite my shiny feathery ass!
So we haven’t updated for a little while, but we have been doing a bit of raiding whenever the shitserver allows it. We killed Professor Putricide last lockout. Should have done it the week before, but that’s another story. Anyways, on to more recent stuff.
This week a new wing opened up, The Crimson Hall, containing the bosses The Blood Prince Council and Blood-Queen Lana’thel. We started on the Council, where we possibly scored the worst kill in EU after a few wipes. After the Council we went up to the Blood-Queen, and that fight can be seen here:

Entering the Icecrown Citadel…slowly.
Yesterday patch 3.3 was applied and we could start raiding the final tier in Wrath of the Lich King aptly named Fall of the Lich King. Having been on Stormscale for almost 5 years now, we were slightly apprehensive to what the server would be like at prime time and, as it turned out, rightfully so. We anticipated some fairly easy first bosses on normal mode, so in order to maximize the loot whoring we will run 2 groups through these early normal mode kills and fill up the raid with alts. This worked very well.
Zoning in around prime time we first met Lord Marrowgar. The lag hit pretty hard here, and killing Bone Spikes became quite hard. Luckily this boss is so ridiculously simple that even with lag ridden, horrible dps he died without inflicting much harm except to a few Poles, but no one likes them anyway.
Next in line was Lady Deathwhisper, and this is where the lag really became a problem. After a wipe we got a try with slightly less lag, and she died too. The Gunship Battle was a stupid and easy gimmick fight, except for being on a motherfucking boat, which was awesome. That only left us with good, old Deathbringer Saurfang. To much cries of “Dude! We loved you at the Wrath Gates!” we pulled. After an insanely long RP speech (they better make it possible to skip this!) he quickly died without much fuzz, and was dragged away.
This concludes the normal portion of The Lower Spire in Icecrown Citadel.
The few who could be persuaded to stand still for 5 seconds.

Call of the Grand Crusade
Proper crusaders now, but no special chests. With 12 attempts left we managed to kill Anub’arak on heroic mode.
We got Protector and Vanquisher regalia that went to Faisst and Cardiz.
Somebody had a camera so we all lined up
Drops:
Bindings of the Ashen Saint
Armbands of Dark Determination
Gauntlets of Bitter Reprisal
Our gnome attempt did not work that well… maybe we had too few?
Our gnome strategy failed when we ran out of wands

Brood Breed Breathe deeply.
So the broodmother has returned to Azeroth in a new and updated form, still breeding like crazy but not breathing as much. We swung by her lair (it’s just a cave really, hardly any gold there at all), and made quick work of her and most of her eggs. We knew Onyxia her self would be a fairly easy boss, but had some hope that the achievements would be slightly harder. Not so much as it turned out.
More fjotts!

Flame OFF!
After a day of trials and lots and lots of errors, we came back to Flame Leviathan with all 4 towers up. After not having much problems at all with 3 towers, we sort of thought this wouldn’t be much harder. But 50% more HP turned out to be quite a lot in what is basically a fight of attrition, and led to things like this. But after a few more tries, we finally did it.
Sometimes there is fire...and ice blocks falling from the sky...and lightning...and tiny flowers that follow you around and GET THEM OFF GET THEM OFF!!!1

Capt. Hammer malfunctions. Slayers rejoice.
So Thorim decided that hard mode is too hard, and stopped casting some of his lightning. We got this meaningless achievement out of it. Hopefully the real deal will be back soon, so we can get it the proper way. Also hopeing that the server will shape up and we won’t lose 2 hours of raidtime every night.
It's curtains for you Thorim. Lacy, gently wafting curtains.
Onwards to Freya with more stuff!
Holy Paladin
