Guild Mum

We’ve had a bit of a quiet time in the guild recently. I think people got a bit burnt out when we made the new guild and pushed to clear Ulduar. On Wednesday we decided to go for a blast in Ulduar and see what we could do. We didn’t have a full raid to start with (Liverpool playing football - pah!) so rather than try FL hard mode with all the towers up we decided to try it without repairing. We managed to get a full raid by the time we had cleared and finished him off without anyone dying.

On to Razor - dead. On to Ignis - we tried to do the kill 2 adds quick and thought we’d managed it, but must have missed it by a split second so didn’t get the achievement. XT - we decided to go for hardmode and that we would wipe ourselves if we didn’t get it, but we didn’t need it. We one shot hard mode.

On to Kologarn. What could we try here? We have already done the two arms and him achievement thing, so thought we could try not being in the beams and also not killing either arm. We totally forgot that not killing the left arm meant that it would squeeze people to death, which it did. We ended up with a lovely pile of bodies…

… but we got the achivement. It’s handy at times having lots of druids and palas who can heal themselves even if they are supposed to be there for dps (and even better that they actually remember and know to use their heals). I think I’m at the bottom of the pile having been squeezed one of the first - yay for angel to carry on healing while dead. Also - how come I apparently have 32 mana when I’m dead?

Hmmm - it was still early - where to next? I fancied doing the Iron Council while wearing the boot flask, but not many had the flask with them, so we went to see Cat Lady. We had already done Crazy Cat Lady, so decided to try the one where you have to kill the feral defender first. Because it’s a cat, it has to die 10 times (they have 9 lives). First try we managed to kill all the defenders, but it was all too much for Auriaya who enraged just as we did the last one and we wiped on 1% - argh how I hate 1% wipes. We decided we’d better get her less healthy next time we were on the last one, but anyway we did them a lot quicker as we had a better plan for where to move and she died shortly after her defender did.

Not a bad night’s work all in - great fun. Shame it was all plate loot, but I wasn’t there for loot - I was there to achieve and have fun and I did both of those.
