Ultraxion 25H has 248 million health (includes the 10% debuff) and a 6 minute (360 seconds) enrage timer (This doesn't factor in the 6 seconds Ultraxion uses for his hard enrage animation).  The entire raid needs an average DPS rate of 688k.  Tanks combined average about 35k.  With 18 DPSers, they need to average about 36.3k DPS...  All of this with 25 raiders clicking the button at the right times...

Last night, the Old Guard managed to hit those numbers and exceed them by defeating Ultraxion 25H with 22 seconds to spare.  Congratulations to everyone involved for keeping your chin high and clicking those buttons.  More importantly, good work on finally gathering well for a group shot!

Grats guys, wish I could have been there.  This seems to be a theme though, maybe I need to sit out for first time heroic kills, lol.

I'm astonished that we got this, as I was alive at the end.  I believe that at least three, possibly four, of Riddle's Firelands Heroic first kills came on attempts during which I died.  Also holds true for a couple of regular DS firsts.  I like walking around after the boss dies.  I think I'll start a new trend: living!

good job on the picture guys

I like how everyone is within the blue circle, only one guild banner which no one is being blocked by, several people with cool effects up (pally wings, tree), gandric? in the teleport

it looks professional

That is why the kill took so long.  They spent most of their energy planning the afterkill picture.

So that is what the button looks like.  LOL I really had no idea.  My custom ui doesn't display it and I had to make a macro LOL.

Gratz on aphenominal kill.
