Recent Progress and Recruitment
We killed some more stuffs in Icecrown! Plagueworks and Blood Wing have both been cleared on 10-man and we're currently working on 25-man Putricide.
The instance is really cool, and it's great to see some Normal Mode fights which prove to be a great challenge. The DPS requirement of Festergut and the chaotic Rotface fight are something nobody truly expected from normal modes. It'll be great to see all the fights in their entireity before the Ashen Verdict buffs kick in!
In the meantime, we're looking for a few more people to join our ranks to go kick Arthas in the nuts with. Please drop us an application on our forums!

Lagcrown cleared! For now.
We cleared the first 4 bosses currently available, and they're a lot of fun! The instance looks fantastic so far, the lore is great, and the tuning on some of the fights is perfect for us, who are mostly in 232/245 gear.
Deathwhisper and Saurfang are miles ahead any ToC Normal boss and the instance is set to have a good progression curve, we can't wait to see the rest of it in the new year!
You may nerf the fights Blizzard, but whatever you do, please do not nerf the Bear druid Jetpack animation. Best part of WotLK so far!

Heroic Beasts Down
Oh thank god! It's DEAD.
Without a doubt the most epic kill we've had, the nerdscreams surpassed any noise-level you'd expect at a Metal Concert. It was one of those post-enrage kills with 5 people alive watching the DoT's slowly take him down, you know the ones! It feels great to have this one down, and it's surely a kill no member will ever forget.
Finally, I don't like to rant, but 'hardmodes' which consist of the exact same fight with "heal and dps more" are not fun. Ulduar was incredible as the hardmodes (except perhaps Freya) required a completely different approach and strategy, and became completely fresh and new encounters. These 'hardmodes' don't add anything new or exciting to the currently existing encounters, and learning these fights goes from fun to frustrating.
Nethertheless, we eagerly await Icecrown and hope to push our way through ToC Heroic as much as possible!

Recruitment
We're currently looking for the current classes in particular:
- Resto Druid
- Priest (Holy and Shadow)
- Enhancement Shaman
Get applying! Glory and naked Tauren await thee!

Downtime and Recent Progress
Apologies with the recent downtime, we had a large number of problems with our existing host, and then added problems with transferring the existing databases over to the new host.
In the meantime, we've been up to plenty of wonderful things! Like enjoying free loot from ToC on faceroll difficulty. Okay, not so enjoyable.
But, we managed to finish off Glory of the Ulduar Raider and get Tribute to Skill, (we were actually 2 attempts off Mad Skill on our first Anub kill, not too shabby!). Hoorah for Proto-drakes!
(Thanks to those in Daedalus and various other guilds who joined us for our little party at Krasus's Landing)

Ulduar Cleared
The last 2 days we finally managed to get a full raid together for the first time since May. We went back into Ulduar25 and got the place cleared up. Mimi was 1-shot, Freya 2-shot and Vezax 3-shot. Yogg however took a few hours to get down, the tuning of it is fantastic and on a whole different level from its' 10-man counterpart. It felt like an end-boss should, which has been a rare thing since Wrath was released.
Anyways, next up: finishing off our 10-man achievements and working on 25-man Hard Modes.
Get applying!
