Before the encounter starts, a Dark Ritualist yells out, "The power... It cannot be wielded this way! You tempt forces you do not understand!" They don't understand us well... We always tempt with forces we do not understand. Disregarding our impending doom, the Old Guard unleashed Lei Shen's anima fueled sentient guardian construct, the Dark Animus, and quickly disassembled it (forgetting a few screws upon reassembly.) The most difficult part of the fight was for our Dark Animus tank Hisae to wait patiently, for over a minute, and do nothing while the rest of the raid fueled up massive anima golems. The raid thanks Hisae for his patience.
This kill brings the Old Guard to 9/12 25N in the Throne of Thunder. Next up is the Iron Qon.
