Council of Blood. Normal.

Hurray – we qualify for another Great Vault reward due to being 7/10 Normal. In all seriousness (or at least somewhat serious), last night was a good night. We breezed through the first 6 bosses and tweaked this encounter to our liking. We went ahead and killed Heroic Shriekwing as a reward in advance of more progress tonight.

The biggest realization from the evening was that we don’t really need most of the loot that has been dropping from these bosses. The “skip mechanic” will be very welcomed after 4 Sludgefist kills as we begin to push Heroic… and dare I say… eventually… soonish… Mythic.

Casual in time only? Possibly becoming real.

Sun King’s Salvation. Normal.

Well, well, well… if it isn’t ole Kael’Thas. Maybe it was the PTSD from TBC talking, but I was not looking forward to this fight. Maybe the rest of the group thought the same. We got to the encounter and realized no one really knew anything about the fight. Like good little raiders, we took a few minutes to watch a video. Afterwards, we decided to just pull and see what happens. Learn on the fly. What could go wrong?

Turns out, nothing went wrong and we defeated the encounter. I feel like a WoW Classic raider! One pull, one kill. No wonder it’s so popular! Someone decided to jinx us ahead of going to The Council of Blood. Spoiler alert: there is not a follow-up post (this week at least) despite how well we all danced.
