Ragnaros down. Definitely the hardest raid boss since Heroic Lich King and probably top 3 in terms of difficulty overall pre-nerf. We were definitely disappointed that they nerfed it so soon as we were on pace to get a quick kill this week as we had been getting to p4 with 2 meteors up nearly every pull for quite some time now and the nerf allowed us to quickly down the boss in a handful of pulls this week. Whatever we'll take it.

Overall it's been a really interesting tier for this guild. Since our US 10th Heroic Sinestra kill we lost over half of our core raiding roster to burnout along with our glorious Raid Leader and another officer with a heart of gold. We only had a few short months to rebuild and headed into Firelands with a lot of unknowns and new leadership. This has easily been the biggest transition the guild has ever had to make and a lot of people counted us out. Well, we passed the test with flying colors and finished the tier off back in the top 10 US and I'm really proud of all the new members that had big shoes to fill along with the several veterans who stuck it out as long as they did and the feeling of reward was even greater because of it. It really serves as a testament to our resilience and longevity.

As always we are recruiting for all the excitement 4.3 has to offer us so head over to our application section if you're interested in a laid back raid atmosphere that offers seeing all the content this game has to offer at a competitive speed. See you at Deathwing.

Grats Jelly on the first rag mount and grats to Roids on the first legendary!

With the abuse of ardent defender, we made short work of this boss. Recruiting a DPS warrior along with 1-2 DPS of the following classes for Ragnaros and beyond: Moonkin, Shadow priest, Hunter, inquire within! If you are not one of the classes listed but feel you would be an exceptional addition to our roster, apply anyways and we might be able to accomodate you.

Man, what a night. After nearly killing this boss a week ago and having some crucial absences, we finally got the job done tonight in only a handful of pulls with our shiny new gear from this week's reset. Just took us awhile to actually get there since Rhyolith felt like kicking our asses with volcano spawns because we one shot him last week. On to Shannox v2 and then the actual race starts.

Good job on getting back into the top 10 US with this kill, now onto the first boss considered "hard" of the tier.

After spending an entire night on Rhyolith with a handful of pulls sub 3%, we finally got our shit together and ended up killing two bosses. Expect a dead bird soon.

Easy boss dead, 6 more to go.

Normal modes down, can't wait to start heroics next week! Also, recruiting an elemental shaman inquire within. Thanks Kater for the pic.
