Black Temple Cleared!

Tue, 19 Aug 2008 23:04:00 +0000

Well I never got round to saying we downed the Illidari Council (the day after we killed Mother Shahraz) and then Wednesday/Thursday re-cleared up to Illidan again. Sunday we spent pretty much all day wiping on him learning the fight — our best attempt was 8%. Monday one of our fire resistance tanks didn’t show, but Tuesday we had another geared up and after a few more hours of wipes we killed him! Black Temple cleared! Only 6 bosses left in the game that I’ve never killed! We’re not geared for Sunwell yet but in a few weeks we’ll be going and giving it a go. I’m well pleased with our progress — it took the guild about 2 months to clear MH and BT!

Side note: during our Illidan kill attempt, around 32%, my keyboard batteries died. When Maiev showed up I ran to get another to plug in. Thankfully while I was away I didn’t wipe the raid. Also had someone banging on the door while all this was going on — didn’t answer it, still no idea who it was! Even with all that I still managed to come second on the healing meters. Go me!

Well it’s been a good week for Antihero! Tonight we killed Mother Shahraz! We only killed RoS yesterday so I’m pretty surprised that we made it so quickly. We didn’t have masses of Hearts of Darkness so could only spare enough to get everyone 3 parts of their shadow resist gear, which meant we were slightly gimped. I had around 254 buffed and there were some people who were a lot less. We wiped a fair bit because of the lack of resist and people failing on getting Fatal Attraction. Illidari Council here we come!

RoS down! Plus a nice upgrade

Today I finally got an upgrade for my Red Riding Hood’s Cloak from Karazhan. Gurtogg Bloodboil finally dropped some healing loot! Shroud of Forgiveness is way better looking than my old cape — for one thing — but it also gave me 36 more healing, 120 health and about 1.2 more mana regen! I guess those are the kind of upgrades you get when you go from Tier 4 to Tier 6! Best priest cloak until the twins in Sunwell.

Oh and while writing this post we had 2 tries on RoS and downed him on the second try of the day! That’s 6/9 BT! Time to go farm for Hearts of Darkness! Then it’s Mother Shahraz!
