Resurrection Raid

Thank You everyone who has been in the raid and supported the raid, especially during my time with leadership. I’m sorry that real life has intruded and caused me to step away from the raid and the game for awhile. All of you have been wonderful, and this raid was awesome and successful! We had…

Here is the valiant Nils, after having killed Skorpyron by himself! Ok, so maybe no one else stayed around to pose for a screenshot. Either way, congrats to Resurrection! We are on our way into the Nighthold!

Patch 7.1.5 is right around the corner, and here are the extensive patch notes! If you belonged to the brawler’s guild before, apparently they kicked you out while they did renovations, and you will need a new invitation.

Some minor changes, including Trial of Valor adjustments at all difficulty levels!

Sorry about missing a few hotfixes. It’s been a crazy week.

Phase 1 Spread out. PAY ATTENTION TO THE BRAMBLES. Kite the brambles to the edge of the room if they are fixated on you. Get out of Dragon breath Priority: Wisps > Twisted Sisters > Dragons > Ancients Cleanse yourself at about 25 stacks by briefly running into the cleansed ground. Do not cleanse more…

A little bit different “patch” notes this time: there are a ton of undocumented changes in Patch 7.1! A lot of cool things were added that Blizzard let people discover for themselves. Since they are undocumented, it’s entirely possible some of these things are side-effects or bugs of other things that were purposely changed, and…

Got some hotfixes already in the pipes to iron out the bugs of Patch 7.1: Return to Buggyness!

The first patch of Legion has hit October 25th! As with most things released on Oct. 25, it’s pretty awesome. We have a new tiny raid with Trials of Valor, tons of class balancing (nerfs, buffs, and inbetweens), and the patch-namer itself the Return to Karazhan mega-dungeon! A new world event on Alcaz Isle in…

Demon Hunters, IE ME COME ON BLIZZ, who have been farming Pandaria world bosses for mounts and loot will now actually GET a chance at said mounts and loots. Previously we were bugged, and got nothing. That would have been nice to know… Some defensive cooldowns now work more broadly on the Cenarius fight in…

Bunch of PVP changes, for the most part!

During the Spider phase, if you are linked with another player, stay near them.  If they are melee, move into melee so you can both DPS. Take Necrotic Venom to the edge of the room and drop it in small controlled pools.  Necrotic Venom will be dropped on Green, Yellow, and Orange. Avoid getting hit when…

The raid will split into two groups.  Stay on your assigned half of the room at all times. Spread out at least 8 yards. There is a lot of room; take full advantage of it. Adds always take priority over the boss.  On Taerar, this includes the clones; they must be killed quickly. Do not…

Not a lot today, but what there is, is important! Finally those emissary bags will give you loot equivalent to what you can get from World Quests, instead of 810 trash. And Kanuka can stop ruining Mythic+ runs, as Shadow Priest’s Surrender to Madness now does not count against the timer for dying. Hurray!

Tier 5 upgrades for many classes’ Class Halls are improved somewhat this week, with the abilities to instantly complete a World Quest option being buffed. There are some minor changes to PVE and PVP for a small smattering of classes, and some welcomed fixes to Withered Army Scenario and Enigmatic puzzle world quests. Also, it’s…

Finally a nerf to Warrior – sorry Argentae! Some mixes of the timing for Mythic+ dungeons, and a sad nerf to enchanting and chaos crystals. Good job cornering the market, Kanuka!
