Making progress

Despite horrible attendance issues, and the release of Ruby Sanctum, we are still working on getting our 25-man Lich King kill.  The majority of the guild has gotten the kill on 10-man, but we are primarily a 25-man guild, so the 25-man kill is important to us.

To me, Lich King is a great fight, where, regardless of gear (or ICC buff), you have to master the mechanics of the fight to beat it.  You can't just power your way through it.  Which is why we are having such a hard time with it, I suppose.  Nerd Rage may not be the best guild on our server, but we DO have the best DPS on our server.  That is one place where we excel.  Take last night for example.  In our many tries against LK last night, we routinely had 6-8 players over the 10k DPS mark.  We can almost blow through phase1 only getting one Shambling (...almost...).  

Despite a freak wipe one Phase1 once, we really do have that phase down and clean.  The first transition is getting cleaner just about every time we do it as well.

Now, Phase2.  That is where the test is.  The second set of Valks, immediately followed by the Defile is rough.  But even that is getting better (if only we could get people to stop dropping Defiles in the middle of the platform).

The big news, though, is that we finally pushed LK into the second transition on 25-man.  Last night was the first time that we got through Phase2.

There is definitely some progress being made.  I truly feel like we are only a few more pulls from a kill.
