Look Ma! No skellies!

After spending our Thursday raid beating our head against this boss, we decided to call our raid and see if taking a couple days to clear our minds would make it any easier on Monday. Turns out it did, and we one shot it first thing Monday without a single death… creating what you see below, our first ever progression screenshot with out a skeleton to be seen anywhere!

Now with 7/13 behind us we are feeling the momentum and hoping this week brings yet another boss kill! We also had a bit of extra time to go back and overpower Heroic Sha of Fear, so you can find our obligatory screenshot for that below as well!

After lots of hard work, and a little sketchy Russian strategy implementation  I am proud to say heroic Council is down! This was not an easy fight, requiring tons of delicate timing, exact DPS application and tons of raid healing. The heroics have definitely stepped up a notch, and I am glad to see we are stepping up with them! Looking to seeing what is next in the Throne of Thunder!

To say we cut it close is an understatement. In the last 5 minutes of the last night of T14 we downed Heroic Grand Empress Shek’zeer, earning us the cutting edge Feat of Strength and capping off what was a great and eventful tier for us!

We finished out a very respectable 13/16, putting us at number 11 on our new improved server and around 350 in the US. We completely cleared heroic Mogu’shan and Heroic Heart of Fear, and had a lot of fun on the way.

Now that we are fully settled on our new server, and benifiting from the great new recruits we found here, I feel like we can go full steam ahead into the Throne of Thunder and have an even better showing in Tier 15. I can’t wait!

It’s been a little while since the site has been updated, but that hasn’t stopped the boss kills from coming! Our momentum couldn’t be stronger as we killed the heroic versions of Lei Shi, Mel’jarak, and Garalon in the last two weeks! That puts us at H10/16, with the last few bosses in our sights. Expect to see more bosses coming soon as we do our best to finish this tier strong and prepare for the next.

Our new server is treating us well, and with a fresh crop of recruits we are pushing progression even faster than before! This week we managed a full clear of the heroic Mogu’shan vaults, defeating heroic Will of the Emperor after very few attempts.

We have every intention of carrying our momentum forward, so expect a few more heroic bosses to meet their end in the coming weeks!

To say the last month has been busy would be an understatement! TRG finally took the leap and moved to our new home on Sargeras. We couldn’t be happier with the server, the community we found, and the new wave of qualified applicants.

In the middle of all that we managed to down heroic Blade Lord Ta’yak and the heroic Spirit Kings!

Things are full speed ahead as we continue to progress on new bosses, welcome some new faces to our roster, and do what we do best… have fun. 2013 is off to a great start, can’t wait to see what the rest of the year brings!
