Heartbreaking Orbit-uary for Nine Lives lost fast

Sorry for the title, but it was the only way of getting all the achievements we did Friday.

Freya done fast

We did some other achievements on Sunday, hopefully Superku will tell about it since he got the fancy loot.

XT-002 Deconstructor was really easy after the nerf Blizzard did to him like the other 10 man hardmodes. Then again, we haven’t tried Mimiron yet, but will next week.

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

They’re coming outta the walls. They’re coming outta the goddamn walls!

Ripley: “I say we take off and nuke the entire site from orbit. It’s the only way to be sure.”

So we did. Except for the “take off” part. We didn’t really do that. A couple of grapple happy few did though. They totally took off. Go them!

We mostly hunt at night. Mostly

The server was slightly better than usual for a Wednesday night. A small break while it was at it’s worst was all we really needed, which is a welcome diversion from the usual cancelled raids on wednesdays. This means we will get lots of time for hard modes the rest of this week.

Bonus picture:

KILL IT! KILL IT WITH FIRE!!

Nice tabard m8 xD.

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 hoping 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!
