Busy weekend for Massacre

Nalorakk

This has been one really busy few days; in the last three alone, the guild

a) teamed up with The Elite, and downed Akil'zon in Zul'Aman. We burned through the bear fight and took out Akilzon after making some adjustments to our attack; you basically have one person call out the incoming storms so you don't have timing problems, and ignore the birds. We did have an excellent lock along who seeded the birds, but they were mostly a nuisance. As a druid, I kept out of the fight as a tank and stuck to heals, and dps'ing in cat form when I went oom.

We then cleared thru to the 4th boss Halazzi, and failed on him when a tank fell early. He is tanked like Nalorakk, with a lynx 'spirit' that pops out to attack whomever, at 75, 50 and 25% health. He is do-able with our group tho, I am certain we could drop him.

b) Back to Gruul, because no one wants to leave a large demon by himself for too long. We downed him in two tries, the first wipe caused primarily by really unlucky shatters and loss of both dps and healer classes. The second try went ok, but not great, due to again, a series of losses of classes like melee dps; we had over 60% of the group still up, but not enough to call it an easy run.

c) Karazhan, which Blue tried but was not able to complete. I wasn't able to attend, and a new OT was used; unfortunately from the stats I watched in the fight the green beam was not picked up quickly enough and 'Spite was receiving heals. We all now how that goes. Tonight is Tuesday; after server maintenance we are back to kara for a full clear if possible, with a new healer, new dps, and our two 'old' tanks.

I am choosing to give the captain position to someone else; I have scheduling problems in the immediate future due to my RL demands on my time. I am sure someone else can handle the chores, and I am grateful to everyone who ran with my teams for all the work and success we generated in a very short time.
