The curse of habit

Now, every now and then you run into a fight and it turns out to be really hard, people die and you wipe time and time again. Generally this is a fight where the entire raid has to have a great situational awareness and be able to react to changes in the enviroment without hesitation. [...]

Trial of the Grand Crusader part IV

Here is something i have a bit more to say about than Faction Champions, the fourth encounter was a lot of fun even if it’s very much like the normal version. Twin Valkyries:This fight is clearly more of a Healing/DPS check than a tanking fight since tanking the Twins is about as hard as bashing [...]

10-man raiding vs. 25-man raiding

Now lately i have read a few topics, articles and rants about this and i felt a need to stick my nose in it. So instead of the fourth part of the trial of the grand crusader posts you will have to read my rantings on this. So what is this ranting going to be [...]

Trial of the Grand Crusader part III

The fight you either love or hate, that changes from week to week. The fight that will annoy your tanks to no end. Lady’s and gentlemen may i present! Faction Champions:The setup you get is everything in this fight and can easily make the challenge swing from rather easy to stupidly hard and it’s not [...]

Trial of the Grand Crusader part II

Time for part 2 and the second encounter which imo is a lot more fun than Northrend beasts but puts a lot more responsibility on the DPS and we all know how DPS are when it comes to responsibility(don’t kill me i’m just kidding).   Lord Jaraxxus:So this guy kills gnomes, or one gnome at [...]

Trial of the Grand Crusader part I

After last weeks fixes to this fight i can safely say that  Northrend beasts is a fight close to perfectly balanced for the average 10 man raiding guild. Is the fight hard, well it depends on how you define hard, if your healers aren’t focused every second and your dps isn’t keeping distance and moving [...]

Trial of the Crusader

Now, most active raiders in WoW have probably noticed and cleared or are in a guild that have cleared this instance by now. The difficulty of this instance is a clear step back compared to the initial difficult of Ulduar. It’s obvious that Blizzard don’t want the normal version of raid instances to be to [...]

10-Man raiding

Since i am currently playing in a 10-man guild most posts in here will mainly deal with raids from the perspective of a 10-man raider in 10-man gear. So far my own experience in WotLK covers all initial 10/25-man content and all 10-man Ulduar content except Algalon, all of TotC 10 and a couple of trys on the [...]
