Last night was the guild's secon major push into Ulduar, and it went well. 

Flame Leviathan went down on the second attempt, so we then pottered off to see XT-002 Deconstructor, who went down first time:

We then one-shotted Ignis before going to have a chat with Razorscale. This was a long fight - long enough that my client crashed, I had to force a reboot, and was able to log back in and rejoin the fight before the end. And the end was good:

Shanda had to call off then, so we substituted in Almaron. However, two healers prove, uh, sub-optimal in the Kologarn fight, so Hex switched to healing. And Lokè discovered that Kologarn, in fact, lives in a hole. (Riv double checked this for us later). But, on the fourth attempt, down he went:

I believe the plan is to extend the lock-out and push deeper into Ulduar.

And you can blame Master Deacus for the music choice, because he said the last vid reminded him of something...

The Fall of Naxxramas

So, finally we were back in Naxx last night. Sapphiron went down first time, and pretty easily:

Which left us Kel'Thuzad. He was rather more ticksy, and after three wipes, and some personnel changes, we made a couple of last nine-man attempts:

Construct Wing Cleared

On Monday night, the one wing of Naxxramas that we'd yet to clear fell before the Ravens.

Gluth had been the stumbling block, but a new tactic saw him fall. Gradjo tanked the Zombie Chow adds, with Shanda healing him, while Lashka and Deacus tanked the boss. He went down, first time:

Next up was Thaddius. One wipe, due to some positioning issues on the two pre-boss mobs, but then down he went...

Two bosses to go...

The Cataclysm Comes

Monday night's first excursion into the military wing brought us these two kills:

Instructor Razuvious Down
Razuvious went down on the second attempt, once Gradjo and Deacus got the hang of mind-controlling the students.

Gothik the Harvester
Gothik went down first time, although it was rather touch-and-go towards the end. We were 9-manning it anyway, and the death of a couple of DPS during the fght meant that we hit the 100% stats reduction....
