This news post is about 1 week late, but I blame my
slackery busy schedule!
<Prophecy> defeats Blood Queen Lana`thel in heroic 25-player mode!We had this kill coming a long way after two weeks filled with many many sub-5% wipes (and over 5 wipes at 2%); we had a hard time with getting a full synergy-strong DPS team online so we just had to wait till last Tuesday (on 23 March).
I already expressed my feelings in a
previous post, so I`ll skip them here. There were actually some fun moments and the kill itself was epic because of the way it was done.
We played pretty good on Tuesday, and ended with getting her down on our second try. The kill however... was hilarious! We finally made it through with all raid alive past the second fear, we lived the pact that followed without anyone dying, so a kill was in our grasp. Last set of vampires to go out, we got to 15, on #16 we have a problem... it`s a late vampire (almost had a MC there) and it`s a healer. So things were pretty rough on the enrage timer, and we of course hit enrage. She was on ~1.4M when she berserked, instakilled most of the raid. People cheated with bubbles and whatnot, and when most people died she had 400k to go. My cloak just ran out then and, although I still managed to dodge 2 hits, she still hit me hard enough. But...
NOT ALZA!!!! His Iceblock was SO AWESOME. While he`s the only raid member alive, safe frozen in a cube, dots still tick off; she`s at 100k left. Another hero...
ankhs!! GO MUKK. Managed to cast 2 spells before he died again, but so did the boss!
Here`s how the things looked like (

That`s about it for this post. Except that the kill was pretty fun to see (and the reactions that followed were hilarious), so again:
ALZA AND MUKK ARE THE HEROES!
