Last night we killed Hodir, Thorim and Freya.
Frostplate Greaves — Hodir
Breastplate of the Wayward Conqueror — Hodir
Breastplate of the Wayward Vanquisher — Hodir
Formula: Enchant Weapon – Blood Draining — Thorim
Crown of the Wayward Conqueror — Thorim
Crown of the Wayward Protector — Thorim
Sif’s Promise — Thorim
Gauntlets of Ruthless Reprisal — Freya
Legplates of the Wayward Protector — Freya
Legplates of the Wayward Vanquisher — Freya
Freya’s trash was much easier in 25m compared to 10m.
I’m not really sure why we didn’t even try downing Ignis (so we could have the achievement for clearing that wing), but they were saying he was too easy so they wanted to keep getting deeper in the instance instead. So we were able to kill a total of 9 bosses, hopefully this week we will get a better number (a lot of them got nerfed today). The last dude (Algalon?) can’t be accessed yet.

Ten of the raid dungeon’s fourteen encounters have hard modes (different from normal and heroic modes). Algalon the Observer is a hard mode-only but optional encounter.

Most people will consider Ulduar fully cleared when Algalon is defeated, myself included. He isn’t optional in the sense of, “hey, guys — enjoy this bonus boss”, he’s actually designed to be the hardest encounter in Ulduar, and only accessible by completing a questline that requires players to complete multiple Ulduar hard modes.
I was able to get Conqueror’s Nightsong Legguards, of all discovered gear it’s the best tanking pant (if not wrong). I was thinking about regemming my tank/dps gear yesterday, but I probably won’t do it because that’s a lot of gems. But then I’ll properly gem the gear I get off Ulduar.
And then there were people saying last night that one of the top guilds of our server is probably going to transfer off this weekend, going to keep the details because it might be a spoof.
As a sidenote, those interested (and to keep reference, since we are losing talents again today because of the patch), the two specs I’m currently using are these:

Firstly, those images you put up were soo crisp. The quality is just superb.
Our guild is running our first 10man tomorrow night. I’m very excited and very scared hahaha. We will take 10 folks who are well geared, attentive and have hopefully read up on the first 2 or 3 fights and see what we can do.
You guys seem to be moving very quickly. Congrats and I’ll be watching:)
