Hang on, this all looks very familiar

As I predicted, Sunwell is still providing us with some challenge to take us into Lich King. Kalecgos was an interesting fight, I'll grant, and Brutallus can still hit quite hard, but one you sort positioning out on that fight ...

I’ve got to be kidding?

Are you kidding me? You can't wait 4 weeks for a new challenge while less hardcore players get a chance to see the content you've been taking for granted? A friend of mine, who isn't so lucky as I am, asked me ...

I was Prepared…

...but not for this. Illidari Council downed after only two nights (5 hours!) of raiding. I can say I've seen Illidan before patch 3.0.2. The fight's a lot of fun, for me, running around in circles avoiding AoE, spell reflecting ...

Mother Shazznabit

Mother Shahraz down. Twice in three days - we got her down on Tuesday, and then again after the reset on Wednesday. I have to say, though, I'm disappointed with the encounter. The Black Temple is starting to look more and ...

A Difficult Easy Fight

Monday, September 29th, 2008 Posted in Bosses, Burning Crusade | 1 Comment »

Archimonde is one of the easiest fights in the game. It's also one of the hardest. The strategy is ridiculously simple - avoid dying for ten minutes, and do minimal dps - but execution is a problem. Any member of ...

…but Naaru don’t have arms!

Yesterday I was finally awarded something different. For the past few months, I've been wandering around Outland and Azeroth as Namthe of the More Money Than Sense.   Now, at long last, I'm instead Namthe of the Too Much Time On His Hands. ...

What kind of day has it been?

As I write this, I'm dowloading the last PTR patch that will ever be released for The Burning Crusade. In a few weeks, everything will start over again and I'll make a whole new set of assumptions about the future ...

My Blood is Boiling!

Gurtogg Bloodboil. Dead on the floor. Good raid tonight, it ended with Bloodboil dead on the floor and a first foray into the Reliquary of the Lost's domain. A 5% wipe, followed by a 1% and we had him! Congratulations to all ...

Nobody Badduh dan us!

Another week, another Zul'Aman Sunday. And the improvement was phenomenal. Taking more or less the same group as last week, we downed Nalorakk and Akil'zon on short order and with loads of time left on the clock. Nowhere near enough ...

Tempest Keep was just a Setback

Wednesday, April 2nd, 2008 Posted in Burning Crusade | No Comments »

The Magisters' Terrace is just one part of huge amounts of new content that's arrived with the patch - a new 5-man dungeon, to complement the last 25-man raid, Sunwell. And it's been interesting, I'll give it that. I'll make ...
