Ignis & Razorscale



These 2 bosses are definitely fun and if you are a guild whom cannot progress until the end... then keep farming these and Naxxramas until you have the strength to down further bosses.

I had recorded these 2 videos very late at night.. then released them the next day. I may have sounded tired.

Loot dropped off Ignis in this video:

Girdle of Embers
Charred Saronite Greaves
Flamewrought Cinch

Rifle of the Platinum Guard
Pauldrons of Tempered Will

Razorscale




Loot dropped in this video:

Veranus' Bane
Saronite Mesh Leggards
Bracers of the Broodmother

Thanks, till next time guys.

There is still a poll with a few days left, at the bottom of this page.

Hodir





During this fight the tank has to always move when he see's the debuff Biting Cold. Most of the fight I explain in the video, but I did forget to mention that if you see one of your party members with electricity on them, stand near them for a DPS boost.



In this video Hodir Dropped:

Leggings of the Wayward Vanquisher

Avalanche



I switch the following 4 items for my frost resist set:

Barricade of Eternity

Mark of the Unyielding

Icebane Chestguard

Icebane Treads



We find only the tank needs frost resist and there should be a frost aura up from one of the paladins.

Kologarn was one of our walls for a while in 25 man. Yet, once we broke through it has become quite easy. In my videos I perfer to show some of the struggle, as many videos out there show when things are polished after dozens of tries. The nice thing with any boss is they do get easier the more familiar you are with them.

Some have made comment on why I am posting raids videos. Well it answers a lot of future questions. Like where did you get that gear? Well If I show you where I got it as I progress, then when I do a true Hobbs Way of pulling video, you'll know the journey I took to get to that moment.

Here are the items that dropped in Kologarn's chest.

Pendant of the Piercing Glare

Shawl of the Shattered Giant

Mark of the Unyielding

Spark of Hope

Giant's Bane

Idol of the Crying Wind

Handwraps of Plentiful Recovery

Till next time guys...

Thunder Bluff & 2 Drakes





I looked up my achievement "Bleeding Bloodhoof", and I actually received it on March 3rd, 2009. I still haven't done all 4 Horde bosses, as when I have that many people together, we'd usually be raiding. Plus most of the guild has already done "For the Alliance", in pugs.


So when Ulduar 1st came out we all took a break from Naxx for a few weeks. We just didn't want to see it. Now here comes the problem... those who are geared for Ulduar were getting the loot, where we had a number of level 80's who needed to upgrade. So once we started heading back and doing OS with two drakes, the Eye of Eternity and Vault, our guild strengthened quite a bit. If you have walls in Ulduar, revisiting old content is great due to the massive numbers of drops you can get in a short period of time. You can use this philosophy in any raiding scenario. For instance way back in The Burning Crusade, once you moved on from Karazhan to ZA and SSC. Continue to run Karazhan, as not all your core raiders will have 100% of the loot from there. Plus the new gear from the higher instances will help you speed run through Karazhan.


Lots of loot dropped off of Sartharion, with 2 Drakes up. We recieved the achievement this wednesday June 4th, "Heroic: Twilight Duo".


The loot he dropped was:

Dragon Hide Bag

Satchel of Spoils

Gauntlets of the Lost Vanquisher x 2

Dragon Brood Legguards

The Sanctum's Flowing Vestments

Pennant Cloak

Mantle of the Eternal Sentinel which is Bind on Equip
