Unity Path Defeat The Lich King! (Realm First)We made a meal of this fight to be brutally honest – the first week of learning was well below our usual standards, as we lurched from one strategy to the next. On the second we had an outside chance of a kill, but there were still too many mistakes for it to be other [...] Unity Path Defeat The Frostwing Halls! (Realm First)A challenging fight on the technique level, but not requiring the sheer DPS brutality of the Blood Queen. Unity Path Defeat The Plagueworks! (Realm First)None of us thought that Blizzard would put such a finely tuned boss in the normal version of the instance. The limited attempt mechanic, coupled with next to no information about the boss created a buzz around the fight which hasn’t been seen for a while. Unity Path Achieve Realm First! Death’s DemiseAnd with the defeat of Yogg+0 came the Realm First! Death’s Demise titles, the second time we’ve taken the honour on Earthen Ring – the first of course being for the first kill of Algalon. Unity Path Achieve A Tribute To Mad Skill! (Realm First)After narrowly missing A Tribute To Skill the previous week, we more than made up for that minor oversight by taking A Tribute To Mad Skill with 46 attempts remaining for the week. Unity Path Defeat Anub’arak Heroic! (Realm First)It’s taken a month, but Anub’arak finally hit the deck. A number of the old hands were surprised by the sheer viciousness of the encounter design – this is a legitimate test. P1/P2 were sorted out to satisfaction after two weeks but P3, well P3 is something else entirely. There are some fights, and fight [...] Unity Path Defeat The Twin Val’kyr Heroic! (Realm First)After two total wipe nights, we started to make progress on this fight – making steady progress until we hit the obligatory 1% wipe. A couple later, the fight was in the bag – and is definitely the first of the “proper” fights in the instance. Unity Path Become Celestial Defenders!The defeat of Algalon (below), was only one part of the story. As Blizzard have stated repeatedly, they regard the defeat of Algalon as a particular milestone in the history of a Realm and reward that achievement with a unique title to those involved on the kill, and broadcast the event to everyone logged in, [...] Unity Path Defeat Algalon The Observer! (Realm First)The capitulation of Algalon received the loudest cheer of the expansion – since we landed M’uru in Sunwell Plateau over a year ago. 22 weeks, almost half a year, since we stumbled in to Ulduar with the messy defeat of Flame Leviathan, the final boss was defeated in one of Blizzard’s best ever instances. Unity Path Defeat Onxyia! (Realm First)It was nice to see the old girl again – over three years since we last saw the place – but the fight lacked any of the original’s substance. Back in the day, even in good Molten Core gear, the fight was still a focus check – this you could do with your eyes closed [...] keep looking » |
