So our trip through Sunwell begins, next up: got dps?

Loot:
[Bracers of the Forgotten Vanquisher]: Allev
[Bracers of the Forgotten Vanquisher]: Astrylian
[Bracers of the Forgotten Vanquisher]: Kylista
[Breeches of Natural Aggression]: Kylista

Gotta love that triple vanquisher, eh?

What an epic fight this is, definitely worth the work we went through to down him. Once everything clicks and you just start to drop him, very fun times. Thanks to everyone for showing up and getting this fight done.

I also want to especially thank our Main Tank Erren and our Flame tanks Daeros, Psysabrew and Therana for doing a great job learning this fight. Even when you did happen to wipe us – again and again. As well as thanks for all our various classes doing crowd control at the key times throughout the long fight. We wouldn’t have got this fight done without your effort and patience, thanks.

I’ll leave you with some words of wisdom from our tanks:

Loot:
[Chestguard of the Forgotten Protector]: Czala
[Chestguard of the Forgotten Protector]: Nixie
[Shard of Azzinoth]: Keishin
[Memento of Tyrande]: Griftar

PS. No one was hurt in the making of this post. Aside from Daeros and Illidan that is.

We actually killed Archimonde the day after Illidan, but who wants to see Illidan get knocked down the front page after only a day? It took us longer than it should have to deal with Archimonde due to some unfortunate departures right after reaching him leaving us with limited decursers. Then with continued success in Black Temple we just didn’t bother to go back. It worked itself out in the end for us, gotta love killing Archimonde and Illidan both for the first time in the same week. It didn’t help that we had to put Eldreth on a diet so he could actually fit through the Mount Hyjal instance portals again. You try making him go on a diet sometime. I rather fight Illidan myself.

With Archimonde now defeated we have managed to finish the current content just in time for Sunwell. Leaving us a couple more weeks to gear up before we can get in there and get to work. Thanks for the great fun, work, and patience that got us through the current content everyone.

Loot:

[Helm of the Forgotten Vanquisher]: Eldreth
[Helm of the Forgotten Vanquisher]: Xoxiric
[Bristleblitz Striker]: Czala
[Leggings of Eternity]: Raiena

So after making short work of the Illidari Council (no kill shot because someone likes to talk to Akama early) we finally got to move on to the demon himself. Sadly I need to inform you that we had to put Keishin down for good this weekend. He was infected with a deadly parasite during our most recent battle with no known treatment. I know how you all must feel. We all here at Exile mourn this great loss as well.

With the holidays over we are once again looking for a few more people to help fill out our raid force. If you are one of the classes below and think you would make a good fit with us drop an application on our forums.

Druid: 1 (Resto)
Mage: 1
Paladin: 1 (Holy)
Priest: 1 (Circle of Healing)
Rogue: 1 (Combat)
Shaman: 1 (Elemental)
Warlock: 1 (Destro)

Another boss down on our trip to pay Illidan a visit. Gotta love the lack of resist fights in TBC eh? If I never see another Heart of Darkness it’ll still be too soon. We proved to Blizzard we haven’t forgotten how to farm resist gear at the least right?

Loot:
[Pauldrons of the Forgotten Protector]: Zakharovich
[Pauldrons of the Forgotten Protector]: Profian
[Tome of the Lightbringer]: Psysabrew

We’ll it’s been another great week for us here in Exile. Al’ar and Solarian both dropped to us this week, sadly it was too late monday for us to go throw ourselves at Kael’thas before we called it a night. We figured we had time to sneak in and get a nice screenshot though. We went into The Eye tonight knowing we only needed to drop one more boss before getting to look at the man himself and we managed to pull it off. Thanks for the great effort tonight everyone.

Loot:

[Wand of the Forgotten Star]: Jaydyn
[Heartrazor]: Ultimos

We’ve also got a few class openings at the moment:

Resto Druid: 1
Rogue: 1
Mage: 1
Elemental Shaman: 1
Warlock: 1

If you’ve got what it takes to help us keep progressing please drop by our forums and throw up an app.

We’ll after taking a quick trip to Magtheridon’s Lair we decide to spin by The Eye for a few drops off our old friend Loot Reaver. On our way through to Loot Reaver someone may have ‘accidently’ pulled Al’ar. We’ll seeing as we had now pulled him we figured we might as well keep throwing ourselves at him at that point being the money sink and repair loving group that we are. Before the end of the night we were looking at this:

Loot:

[Talon of Al'ar]: Czala
[Tome of Fiery Redemption]: Omnigear

We’ll it’s been quite a week for us here in Exile. Leotharas, Karathress, and Tidewalker all down in the same week for the first time for us. Tidewalker went down after a few hours of work, and much nose holding by our rogues. Got to take a peak at Vashj and easily take her to phase 2 where the real fight begins.
