Sartharion was one shot on Thursday evening with no drakes up. We’ll be trying for one drake up next week!

In Naxxramas, the Military, Plague, and Arachnid Quarters are now cleared! The last two bosses in the Plague and Arachnid Quarters were cleared after Sartharion on Thursday and Military Quarter was cleared this evening. It took a few tries to get each of the Military Quarter bosses, but I think we have a much better idea how to do it now that we’ve all done it once. Next on the plate is the Construct Quarter… just need to clear the first three wings a bit faster so we’ll be able to squeeze in a few more hours working on the new content.

After our first foray into Naxxramas, no much action has been happening on that front. Lag issues and drama issues have delayed any solid attempts since the first time in until last night when we got another solid run in on the instance. We have now cleared 2/3 Plague Quarter and 2/3 Arachnid Quarter in Naxxramas after a three and a half hour raid. Noth the Plaguebringer and Grand Widow Faerlina were both one shot our first time seeing them. Anub’Rekhan was two shot after a strategy adjustment (running away is for losers, I guess). Heigan the Unclean took a while to get, but we all needed to learn how to dance. We can dance if we want to. We can leave your friends behind. ‘Cause your friends don’t dance, and if they don’t dance, then they’re no friends of mine. *cough*

Next up is Maexxna and Loatheb to clear both of those quarters. After that is the Military Quarter with the Death Knights. We’re also going to go and try Sartharion on Thursday night.

Congratulations to everyone who got some upgrades last night!

Yes, four years ago today, Stormwardens was founded.  It was small and could barely get 5 people in the right roles to be on at the same time to run an instance, but it’s grown and we’ve done well.  People come and go, but the guild still lives and breaths (and can run instances).  Not an easy accomplishment in most MMOs.  I should have made more fireworks.

Thanks to our members for being a part of this guild and making it what it is.
