Weekend Roundup

November 1st, 2005 by Skier

So this weekend we got back into the swing of things after last week’ hiatus. Friday night we did the normal MC and aside for a slow start, we got things rolling about half way through. Saturday we fought and defeated the aggro-crazed Onyxia and then cleared out the remaining subbosses in MC. By the time Sunday rolled around we were playing cohesively again and cleared to Domo is no time flat. Our Rag attempt had a little hiccup on the Sons and we just didn’t get it done (10% QQ). However, afterwords, much to my delight, we finally made it into Blackwing Lair as a guild. I think people are now aware that not only is BWL challenging (which we all knew), but it’s fun as hell too.

Shattered Star Exiles

Some of you may have noticed a few new faces around. The Shattered Star Exiles ran MC with us this weekend. I can say that I am impressed and from the tells I was recieving from people I wasn’t the only one. Good work SSX guys I hope you had fun too.

Fire Resist

I just wanted to point out that everyone should still be working on getting fire resist gear. There’s a small handful of the guild that basically has all the good blue FR stuff. However, the majority of the guild still has room for improvement. Please consult the fire resist guide to figure out where you need to be spending your time (hint: there is no FR gear in AB).

Ok, on to the loot…

Schedule for this week

October 18th, 2005 by Skier

Tuesday – UBRS @ 8:00 pm
Wednesday – ZG @ 7:00 pm
Thursday – ZG (cont.) @ 7:00 pm
Friday – BWL – Razorgore familiarization @ 8:00 pm
Saturday – Onyxia @ 6:00 pm followed by MC
Sunday – MC (cont.) @ 6:00 pm

Tonight I’m going to be running a UBRS raid. If you haven’t attuned yourself to Blackwing Lair, this will be an excellent time to do so. Attuning yourself to BWL is pretty straightforward: kill the quartermaster (right outside the entrance to the instance), loot & and read his note, touch the globe behind General Drakkisath.

Wednesday and Thursday I would like to run some ZG. I intend to work on Jin’do and the Panther Boss. If there’s not enough interest for ZG I will be running one of the 10-man instances instead.

Friday night I would at least like to zone a raid into Blackwing Lair. You only need to bring some potions and your A games. If you notice me pushing people harder than normal this is the reason. Right now we are at a stage where MC isn’t a challenge, and frankly I think a lot of people are bored with it (myself being one of them).

Saturday and Sunday we will kill Onyxia and clear MC (figure on doing about the same bosses Saturday that we do Friday, likewise with Sunday).

Present Issues

October 16th, 2005 by Skier

This evening the officers sat together in ventrilo and discussed some of the issues facing the guild. As a result a few people have been removed from the guild due to their negative impact on the guild as a whole. A few other individuals with ongoing issues will be talked to in private. Basically what we are trying to say is we warned you a while back that making the game unfun isn’t going to fly.

Vent Gag List

Just be quiet damnit.

Raid Balance

I intend to keep our raids balanced on classes, even if it means leaving some slots open. In order to not get left out on raids, I’d suggest people cross-train on friends accounts. We have the same few people always offering to play alts and that’s just nonsense. If it comes down to mutliple people going to the same spot, the raid leader will chose who goes and who doesn’t. If you don’t agree with how the raids are run, please go run your own.
