Or in other terms Mother Shahrandom got Shagged!!!
HELL YEAH! One more boss down server first by Balance yet again, and most importantly, one more boss down pre nerf with only 2 days spent on it!
This boss fight is really stupid though and I ain't calling for nerfs because I love that encounters should be hard, but this is really broken. You need more luck then skill here. Ofc the gear and the experience will help you but there are so many factors here that can wipe you it's not even funny.
But ahh well, down this boss went and man does it feel good taking such a hard encounter PRE NERF! Great feat!



This means Illidari Council left and then it's the old geezer himself -ILLIDAN! Mother also dropped the next part T6 tokens for us and this time it was the shoulderpiece.

Awesome job guys!

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHAAAAA!!!
Man what an awesome bossencounter! Seriously this is PRECISION RAIDING at its best. If you thought Archimonde was all about precision raiding, Reliquary of Souls beats that encounter by far in skill.
I know we only spent a little more over one day of tries on RoS but that just prove that we got what it takes to kill YET another unnerfed boss.
I'm gonna cry when blizzard nerfs this encounter as it's an fucking awesome experience to kill it while being this hard. Just like the 4h encounter back in the old days of Naxx. This was also yet another Balance server first for all those who are wondering.

I would say that this encounter is my favorite yet, and I think alot of peeps will agree with me on this. I just love the way this bossencounter also looks aswell. The boss has 3 phases all very unique and all requires the whole raid to make no mistakes. The phases are different aspects of the Reliquary and p1 is called Essence of Suffering, p2 Essence of Desire and last Essence of Anger. The next phase is more dangerous then the previous one.



Imba job guys only 2 bosses left and then it's Mr Illidan himself.

HEEEEEEEEEL YEAH!!
Man I feel so relieved right now! Balance has killed Archi-frigging-annoying-monde server first!! MOUNT HYJAL CLEARED! It feels so good to finally be able to say that. Wíth the end boss dead we have now yet again killed a whole instance server first and is also the 3rd consecutive one. If that wasn't enough this was also the 5th end boss that we killed server first! We're also proud to announce that we killed Archimonde before the oncoming nerf to his abilities! This bossfights is REALLY hardcore stuff. Much props to the Balancians for killing this boss. You did an awesome job! This is why I'm proud to be leading this fine guild, it's moments like these that count and make up for all of the other shit.


Big boss dead - BIG PICTURE!! =D

Looking back at Mount Hyjal or Hyjal Summit as it's also called, I look back on it with GREAT relief. I really despised the fact that loads of what seems to be infinite waves of adds coming towards us and we have to kill it. Well atleast we didn't have to clear it all with 12 waves and only 2 bosses, but much respect to all the guilds that it! Having this shit on farm really makes me relieved.

The bossencounters were somewhat mixed aswell. Rage winterchill nothing much can be said fun to meet a Kel'Thuzad lookalike and Anetheron is pretty straight forward. Kaz'rogal is I guess the first boss where you really start pushing it to the end with mana/dps and it becomes a fun fight at the end. Azgalor is wicked stuff though and need to pay much respect or it will pretty much own your MT.

Last but deffo not least Archimonde is the best fight in all of Hyjal Summit. It has everything that you can think of and Blizzard really did a good job in creating a "panic encounter". All of his skills result in panic unless treated otherwise. One important thing to say about this boss is that if ONE person dies the chance of wiping is estimated at 95% since he gets a soul charge and no matter what soul charge he does puts a huge strain on the raid, thus creating the snowball effect.

Even though this next kill I post may be somewhat overshadowed by the Archimonde kill, we are also proud to announce that Gurtogg Bloodboil is also dead as a Balance server first aswell.


And slightly smaller boss dead - slightly smaller pic. =)

Although Gurtogg seems really easy since we double killed him together with Archimonde, don't let yourselves to be fooled. We've been here before wiping and practising on this boss and I shit you now this boss is also mighty hard. I would say that this boss is the most healing intensive fight in all of WoW atm, even more then Archimonde.

Well we're progressing fast again and all I can say is that I'm one happy and proud Balancian!!!
