<Fidelity>

We killed Heroic The Primal Council in 37 attempts with 12 raiders and an average iLvl of 391.6.

In between working through normal, we had a look at both Terros and Council. For our group the crux of the fight was clearing all the pillars, while finally shadow priest had it’s glorious moment in the sun! While sometimes frustrating to have missteps, the joy of the fight for me was the communication and teamwork on display to get the meteor axes in the right positions to clear pillars and balance the soaking between the axes. Jastina would often volunteer to become ‘melee for a day’, to try and balance the groups and provide a clear option to blink back for the ranged soak and pillars.

I believe Jondy’s record of clearing six pillars with a single soak remains unbeaten to this day.

… and we’re back! I’m struggling to describe how it feels getting back to raiding as a guild in the new expansion. I’m just going to say, ‘amazing’ and call it a day. It’s collaborative, quiet and a whole lot of fun.

We killed Heroic Eranog in ? attempts with 13 raiders at an average iLvl of 385. I can’t find any wipes… so maybe one of my guildies can remember all the way back to the start of the year.

We had a relaxed start to the expansion, with only one raid as soon as the raid released with a break until the New Year. We have had guildies return. The man-mountain Hagrim took his rightful place leading the charge carrying his shield as fast as his little legs could charge into battle! (Don’t get too excited because work schedules make raiding difficult) Praka is back and wrestling with his dark side, as our teeny tiny group doesn’t require a whole lot of healers. We have had so many people switching characters you might not recognise the names. From Kal going evoker, Dazzler also going evoker, to rogue (Gabble) because teeny tiny group. Canaleth went evoker (Smaugette), and … spoiler alert … has reinforced our tanking on his Demon Hunter Yoruk! Bio went priest, and … teeny tiny group.. is back on his mage. So we have three mages. Three. Mages. What’s delightful is that we have all the types of mage. Bio as frost, Zelraun as arcane and Jastina as fire. Borg, Jondayla, Velletara and Kerithwen all remain faithful to their mains but Kerithwen gained a Death Knight buddy in Baelgunnas.
