A New Week, Another Dead Nefarian

Well, on Tuesday we cleared Blackwing up to Nef, and we even got a decent pull on him. Last night, after a lagged-down wipe, and a mage-induced wipe (not me), we killed him again for the 2nd week in a row. Here's what he gave us this time:
[Boots of the Shadow Flame]
[Breastplate of Wrath]
[Crul'shorukh, Edge of Chaos]
[Dragonstalker's Breastplate]


Also, the 1.11 test patch notes have been updated.

Dark Portal Syndicate Defeats Nefarian!

Last night, we went into BWL with high hopes from the night before. Unfortunately, things didn't start off well. We engaged a half-hour behind schedule. On the first few attempts, as soon as the event started, everybody had about a 6 second casting lag. We decided to give the Lair an hour or so to let the lag die down, and we went through a bit of MC.

This time, things went smoothly. Before we knew it, phase 3 was incoming. Everybody knew what to expect this time around... there were [Oil of Immolation]s, [Limited Invulnerability Potion]s, [Stratholme Holy Water]s, etc, etc, and in the end, it all payed off. Nefarian let out his last breath, and we became the 4th horde guild on Stormrage to bring him down (Splintered Faction getting their first kill only 3 or 4 days before us).

I didn't get any loot, nonetheless, it was a good feeling to see him die. Congratulations to all of DPS for a well deserved kill.

Here's what Nefarian left us with:
[Breastplate of Wrath]
[Mish'undare, Circlet of the Mind Flayer]
[Neltharion's Tear]
[Robes of Transcendence]

Nearly Nefarian

Last night was a pretty good night on Nefarian. On 2 consecutive pulls, we got him down to 20% and 19%, respectively. Our problem now seems to be phase 3, which is the zergging. I didn't have any [Limited Invulnerability Potion]s, so I went down pretty quick. Hopefully tonight, we'll have most of the same people on, and we'll kill him for the first time.

This morning I was finally able to copy Unbarc to the test realm. I haven't gotten much chance to do anything yet, but I did try out an arcane/frost build, and I did the Mage quest in Azshara. Two words... Polymorph: Pig.

Updated Profile Page

I've spent the last few days updating my Profile page. Noticable improvements? Click on my talents, and have a look. They're now arranged like they are in the game, instead of how I had them before. I've also made it possible to see my fire spec or what fire resistance gear I wear (I'll be adding links on my profile at some point to both of these).

I've also added a link to a bankless profile, which will just leave the bank section out (but only when I have the bank enabled in the settings).

Test Realm Patch Notes: 1.11.0 - Mages Rejoice

Finally, the Mages (and Shaman) have gotten their review! Test realm patch notes are available here.

Yesterday, I tracked down somebody to enchant my [Netherwind Gloves] with [Formula: Enchant Gloves - Frost Power] (woo!).

Macro Section

I've updated my Macros section to fit more with how I've done other parts of the site (using in-game UI graphics).

Last night, we killed Onyxia, cleared MC through Shazzrah, and made a couple of attempts on Chromaggus. Unfortunately, we only got him down to 4% and 10%, respectively, before calling it a night. Hopefully tonight we'll get him on the first try (Time Lapse and Incinerate, for those of you wondering) and have a night at learning more about the Nefarian encounter.

Loots: [Sapphiron Drape] from Onyxia
