We’ve entered a big progression week for both teams! Each raid team has secured a new boss kill. Still a lot to do, sadly, but at least we’re moving onwards.
- Death Jesters secures our Soul Hunters kill, putting us at 6/8 Mythic. Work now starts on Nexus King. I mentioned last week that we were looking for a tank. We thought we found one until we discovered the timing wasn’t ideal and he had to withdraw his trial opportunity with us. We’re still searching for another tank to help us finish out our tier and heading into the future. This must be what the Cincinatti Bengals must feel like.
- I drew back into the line up for Soul Hunters as it was decided to go with five healers there. There are so many things going on that it can be hard to keep track of it all. Instead of two blue puddle soakers, there are now three. Instead of one big hunt line, there are three big hunt lines (but at least they happen one after the other). During intermission, the raid is divided into groups of three and you are tethered to your other partners so you can’t move too far away from each other. We had a few low 3% wipes before we finally held together and killed it just as we exited the final intermission. Hopefully the reclear will be much easier this week.
- Over in Last Call, Loom’ithar went down within a few pulls. The power spike helped greatly since we could clear the walls faster which means our team could take their tethers out earlier and lead to more time on boss damage. Unfortunately, no Astral Antenna, but we did get about five in our vaults this week.
- Work has started on Forgeweaver. We’ve been able to enter the damage amp phase a few times with everyone alive. We opened the encounter with using Heroism and potions, so we’ll see if that’s enough to carry us through to the point where we won’t need to switch and use those on the first amp.
Oh lastly, I decided to leave Stormrage. I moved back to Proudmoore to get my old name back!
