Second alliance to kill Malygos and first alliance to get Black War Bear

Updated: 12/02/08, original post 11/30/08.

The past November 30th was a very interesting night. There’s so many screenshots to post but lets see if I can go in order. That night was a Sunday, and we had planned a raid to Malygos, which would make the second time we saw that boss (25-man). I’ve never done the 10-man version so far so…

There are a couple of pictures of the encounter. If I’m not wrong that night it only took us two attempts to kill Malygos.

And this is what he dropped for us:

Hood of Rationality
Spaulders of Catatonia
Blanketing Robes of Snow
Chestguard of the Recluse

That made us the second alliance guild in Mal’Ganis to kill Malygos. The funny note of the fight was that, when he was about to die we almost wiped, but two brave souls enraged and managed to take him down and remain alive at the end of it :P

That’s Apperishun and me! I’m not sure what happened, but for some reason by the end of the fight the rest of the raid was blasted, I just remember that a ton of people died and I even thought that we were going to wipe.

So, we finished the raid a lot earlier than expected, you wouldn’t believe how fast we did all that. After we were done I’m not sure who was it, but since we had a full raid, someone threw the idea of going and killing all the raid leaders around the world. After a couple of minutes we filled up the raid (with 40 people) and started the raid.

Keep in mind that, even tho we did have people from other guilds (I think two or so other guilds), of the 40 people in the raid, Pro Baddies was probably 30-35 or around there, so the majority of it was our guild.

The first destination was Thunder Bluff, the target was the mighty chief Cairne Bloodhoof.

As we were going up some people fell off the elevator and even the bridge at the top, hehehe.

120208-10.jpg

So we went into the city and killed him rather easily.

120208-11.jpg

After that we headed to Silvermoon City, the target this time was Lor’themar Theron, the Regent Lord of Quel’Thalas.

120208-12.jpg120208-13.jpg

After we got him we headed to Undercity, the victim: Sylvanas Windrunner, The Banshee Queen.

120208-14.jpg120208-15.jpg

By the time we killed her the Horde was already aware of our movements, we had to strike the last target as fast as possible… What was left? Orgrimmar, and our host would be Thrall. When we got there there was already a healthy defense of Horde, some people said it was impossible, but after we learned that horde gave the alert that we were there we had no other choice than to gather all our courage and ram into the place.

120208-16.jpg120208-17.jpg

The interesting thing about Orgrimmar was that after we got into Thrall’s building all the raid started to lag really bad, we had such terrible lag spikes, we even disconnected during the fight, but we could get back and keep going… but guess what! As soon as we killed him… the stupid server mass-disconnected us (we killed the server too HA HA HA), and by the time we got back he was dead, but nobody in the raid got credit for it.

120208-18.jpg120208-19.jpg

We were obviously mad… after all that, going thru the lag and such, not getting credit for it, GG.

120208-20.jpg

After some discussion in vent it, and after doing some research, we learned that the bosses had a 2 hour respawn… so, even tho we opened a ticket to see if a GM could do something about it, we were going to go back and try to kill him again. The lag was really bad after that.

The really funny thing about this was that it seems that there were a decent number of low level DKs in the city that were going to deliver their quest (so they would be friendly with the horde faction), and since we killed Thrall they also had to wait those two hours to deliver the quest, hahahaha.

Two hours passed…

120208-21.jpg

Yay~~~

120208-22.jpg

If you slay all the leaders you get a nice bear mount, Reins of the Black War Bear, and it was said during the raid that we were the first alliance guild to get that mount in the server (horde has it already, but the majority of our server is horde).

So yeah, the night was really great, it was also the first time ever I stepped into those horde cities, hehehe.

I’m not sure why achievement’s dates are one day after the actual… but this happened last night (the 24th):

112508-01.jpg

Not like it’s a huge accomplishment considering that most of Naxxramas is a joke, but I can’t miss to say that we are the first alliance guild in Mal’Ganis to full clear 25-man Naxxramas, killing Kel’Thuzad @ 9:01 PM EST.

It was sort of a mess after the kill so I couldn’t get a proper group screenshot

112508-03.jpg112508-04.jpg

I think Hugetank went AFK after the kill

112508-05.jpg

Here we got Aeds still sorting out loot… damn, he’s so dedicated! :P

112508-06.jpg

After that we tried Malygos (in The Eye of Eternity) but kept having server issues, so we couldn’t maximize the time we had to work in him…

112508-08.jpg112508-07.jpg

Some of us were also getting a “Character doesn’t exist” error, among other things.

Ding 80 and Naxxramas

Sorry for the lack of updates, I’ve been kinda pushing to 80 the last week that I’ve even stopped watching anime (haha).

112408-01.jpg

112408-02.jpg

I got the game last Monday 17, started playing at night. From there I had to sort work, but I finally leveled up to 80 Sunday @ 1 AM Server (which is in CST). Zone wise I only quested in 3-4 zones, the rest was all in instances.

Then last night we went to three 25-man instances, the two first were full guild and the last one was some sort of pug.

112408-03.jpg

I apologize for no variety of screenshots nor loot, to tell the truth I take a couple of screenshots in The Obsidian Sanctum but I totally forgot to write up the loot, and then afterwards I totally unplugged during Naxxramas. Naxxramas was sort of a joke (most of what we covered), tho.

After we finished those two raid instances we ran some sort of pug and did another 25-man instance and then a 10-man.

112408-04.jpg

Gear wise, I haven’t replaced much of my gear since 70 (for now). I got a couple of items last night, tho.

More to come in the upcoming days…
