See that HP? See it?? I WANT TO KEEP IT!!!! Baleroc is fun!
We've had Rhyolith down for a while on 10 but this was our first 25 man kill. So much death. So very much death. But I lived! Pally bubble FTW.

Happy Firelands! New Dead Bosses! Yay!
Heroic is 2 years old! (And they haven't committed me yet!)
We held a fishing competition and a Naked Gnome Race for prizes! One lucky lock got Vial of the Sands and now flys around Stormwind saying, "I'm a dragon!"
And Happy Birthday, Heroic, we got the server first kill on Beth'tilac! (Last thing you want to hear on the fight is the tank saying, "Oh, shit." in vent!

Next night, big, bad dogs dead. Nifty trick to change it so the boss(es) are untauntable.

Heroic is Recruiting!
"Heroic is recruiting exceptional raiders for 25 mans. We have raided successfully and consistently for 2 years and are seeking serious raiders without commitment issues or drama. 12/12 reg, 4/13 hard modes, Raid M-Th 7:15-11. Pst for info!"
OMG I’m tired of recruiting. It feels like all I’ve done for 2 years. LOL. We have the folks at the moment to do regular 25s a couple nights a week but desperately need more solid raiders for 25 man progression. Nesingwary is CST and about 2 ½ years old…still marked off and on as a new player server but yet no free transfers in, go figure. If you have the skills and desire to do 25 man progression raiding please come on over! Make a toon and whisper anyone with the Heroic tag or contact me through the blog.
Our biggest needs right now are for a Holy Paladin, Resto Druid, Boomkin, and Ret Pally but we could absorb any well-played class!
Please, save me from the endless grind of recruiting!

Raid Update
Ok, Heroic Halfus is down and I neglected to mention it because it was so uneventful and easy.
However…I HATE Heroic Chimaeron! Seriously, HATE. 300k thank you and we wiped. It’s too much like Al’Akir in that random dumb luck plays a roll. We have the heals, we have the DPS, and we so very much have the tank dance down…but frankly, dumb luck that gives the Feud Tank 4 breaks is just wrong! Done bitching now. Talk to you when he’s dead.

Dead Nefarian!
Woot! Finally Nefarian is dead!
It took way longer to kill him than it should have based on how easily he went down last night. LOL, isn’t that the way it always goes? In the end it was determined that what killed us the most were the following things:
Information Overload: Waaaaaaaaaaay too many strategies out there and everyone’s friend has a piece of advice. We changed the strategy too many times to try different things and should have just stuck with what was working from the beginning. (Unfortunately, we didn’t realize it would for…oh, say, a couple of weeks.) Really, people, we love you and appreciate your advice but now please go fishing or something.
Bad Group Dynamic: The team wasn’t really feeling like a team lately. We finally had to let go of one of our healers and replace him. He just didn’t fit in and folks were not happy raiders. The new shammie is a vast improvement in sooooo many ways but most importantly he just seems to fit.
Mood: We remembered we are here to have fun while killing big things and that it’s GOOD to laugh at the stupid that happens. (See BGD above LOL)
In the end we did it this way: 1 Paladin tank (Me!) on Nef 1 DK tank on Ony then adds (yes, I know what everyone says about pallys being the ones that should be kiting them but frankly he’s a better add tank than I am. I admit. So bite me.) 2 Resto Druids, one on me and one on raid 1 Resto Shaman on the DK tank A mage, warlock, warrior, hunter, and rogue as DPS
We pushed two crackles in P1, none in P2 and then blew him to bits in P3
During P1 Nef and Ony were on opposite sides of the room with their heads towards the 2 pillars in the back. The adds were kited but the hunter with frosty novas and rings when in place by the mage. We put them on Nef’s ass by the pillar closest to the door.
For P3 I kept Nef in the middle of the room and just spun him as needed to make sure our DK didn’t get tail swiped. There was also a degree of hyperventilating starting when he got to 12% but I’m pretty sure that’s optional.
So, that was that. We have our weird looking ghosty birds now! Yay! On to serious hard mode work!
