Title: Everybody Knows That Every Dragon Dies...
Post by: Rydias on June 29, 2012, 11:24:53 AM
And nobody knows it like the Old Guard... To think that all the skies in all the worlds might just turn dark, if they ever give up on it.

After only a couple nights of hard work, a few very close calls, some adjustments in strategies...

..and great leadership by our Ret-Paladin turned Tank Arcadien, a few of our most resilient raiders managed to down Heroic Madness of Deathwing, closing this chapter with a record of 8/8H, and once again saving the world from the impending Cataclysm.

Congratulations to the new Saviors of Azeroth!

The Supreme Court ruled that Deathwing must die.

Breaking down the grind:

Night 1 (30 min left in raid) - couple of pulls. Learn new heroic mechanics. Progress stopped at first platform.

Night 2 - successful handling of new mechanics. Steady progress to making it to fourth platform consistently. Tanks die on fourth platform a lot.

Night 3 - Preraid troubleshooting of tank cooldowns. Raid starts consistently making phase 2. Lots of troubleshooting needed for it. Raid gets real sloppy in last 45 min of raid but then pulls it together for a successful last try kill.
