A new week is upon us and it's time to retell the stories of last weeks raiding. After many late nights we have had good 10 man progress. However our 25 man progress is a little slack. Since my last post we have downed Auriaya, The Iron Council, Hodir, Freya and Ignis the Furnace Master. Auriaya was downed late on Thursday night after a few attempts, we tried different tactics and tecniques and finally downed her, it's always the same wipe, wipe, wipe, then down the boss and make it look really easy.
Anyway, after having the weekend off we once again stepped into Ulduar on monday night,ready for battle. We first of all tackled Ignis the Furnace Master, fighting hard we took her down after a couple of attempts. Fight mechanics were easy enough, just need to learn them. After downing Ignis we moved onto take out the Iron Council, and i manage to get myself killed, but i'm loving these Ulduar fights. Remind me of the old Black Temple enounters. It requires the whole raid to be skilled to down the bosses and not get themselves wtfpwned.
We downed The Iron Council after a couple of attempts and with a bit of luck after some of us noobed it up near the end and it came down to just bursting him down. Freya was our next challange, after working out her trash we just downed all 3 elders and engaged her. Got raped, refreshed, read tactics and tried again. This time more successful using our own tecnique to handle the different pacts of adds another fun fight, however someone easy once you have 10 players who know what they are doing.
It was Tuesday night and we were hoping to down another 2 bosses before the reset to roung off our progress at a nice 10 bosses, however we struggled on Hodir and after some aka's and our tank falling asleep before the end of the raid we ended up just downing Hodir after a lot of attempts and changing of tanks followed by an epic game of hide and seek in Freya's garden. Congratulations to Octhellion who won the 10gold for best hiding position!
Now we look forward to a fresh raid week and hopefully a clear of 10man Ulduar plus some 25man progress.
