Unity Path Defeat Putricide Heroic! (Faction First)

Ugh. Putricide Heroic is now completed, which is the positive, but we made a real hash of this particular fight – using a strategy which was fundamentally flawed, but which looked initially promising. This took us down the wrong path for two weeks, and there was minimal euphoria on the kill – a two shot [...]

Unity Path Defeat Deathwhisper Heroic! (Faction First)

This took a bit longer than it should have, largely due to using a questionable tactic which just didn’t offer enough stability in P3 and Earthen Ring deciding to take a vacation on two of our raiding nights during the previous weeks raiding. It’s certainly the most challenging fight of the opening 11 bosses in [...]

Unity Path Defeat Blood Princes Heroic! (Faction First)

In truth, we should have taken this fight the week before, but we chose to go to Festergut and stay on it until it was dead. When we eventually went to the Princes, we found it to be a very straightforward fight in real terms and one which didn’t put up an awful lot of [...]

Unity Path Defeat The Crimson Hall! (Realm First)

Whilst it has to be said we made a complete mess of the fight the previous instance reset, the highlight being wiping at 2% in a night filled with new and wonderful ways of self-destructing on the way down, the return bout this week yielded a kill within four pulls. An excellently tuned fight, completely [...]

Unity Path Achieve A Tribute To Insanity! (Faction First)

This had to be one of the more annoying achievements. Two months ago, we blew it at 11% of the Anub’arak takedown due to an incredibly vexing oversight by a passive healer (the group died), and since then there’s been week after week of random disconnections of MT’s, a couple of questionable errors or just [...]

Unity Path Storm The Citadel! (Faction First)

Icecrown was released with 3.3, the server was a laggy mess – virtually unplayable for the first two hours of our first sortie – but we got the job done without too much fuss. The difficulty seems very similar to the non-heroic Colosseum, and we await the real meat of the heroic versions of these [...]

Unity Path Defeat Mimiron Firefighter! (Faction First)

The fight has a horrific reputation, but I think the team did very well – five wipe nights total and the boss hit the deck with quite a bit of margin to spare on the ten minute enrage – in relative terms of course! Big kudos to the healing team – we pulled the fight [...]

Unity Path Defeat Freya+3 (Faction First)

We probably should have done this last week, but we decided to just mop everything up in a couple of days and have a couple of days breather after the exertions of the weeks before. And within 5 pulls on the night, we cleaned up. In real terms, adding the last Watcher – the ground [...]
