It never ceases to amaze me the way shit luck strikes us in a quick succession. It’s never one thing we have to react and adapt to it’s always several things at once. We quickly progress from something such as bugged trash, to crippling server lag, into RL punching some of our key dps in the dick, and then finally one of our core healers getting hacked. My favorite being WG starting or ending in the middle of an encounter that is always good for a laugh or two... or are they tears? Who knows...

Anyway with the goofiest raid setup I've seen in some time we managed to kill this dragon with the annoying ass voice from deathwhisper. It sure was a lot easier without the bugged trash making it so she won't land and instability critting our casters.

And lastly...

Burning Sensations is looking for HEALERS and some DPS more specifically RESTO DRUIDS AND SHAMANS for immediate spots in the main raid however any healer applicants will be considered

Recruitment Status: 1/31/10

Burning Sensations is RECRUITING!

Currenly we are looking for Resto Druids and Shamans for the main raid group

As for the rest of you...

As of today, 1/31, I have opened recruitment with the goal of obtaining some back up applicants to call on should I find myself in need of some bodies. With Hard mode ICC coming in little over a week I'm sure there will be some issues that arise leaving us in a position where we need to find replacements for certain individuals be it due to IRL interference or the more likely scenario of having players unable to adapt to the "stresses" of hard mode encounters. If you are interested in this you may contact me in game with questions or proceed to this post which will most likely answer any questions you may have.

Nothing like going into a fight and thinking there is just something we are doing wrong until we come across not one, not two, but three realizations each more encounter cheesing then the last. The last time we came to such a grand epiphany was back during Kael'thas when we went from constant wiping to p2-3 to killing him within the hour the feeling it gives is both horribly embarrassing and uplifting at the same time. So since these fights aren't lasting long enough to give me anything to make sarcastic jabs about any unnamed raider I'll simply have to close with a simple job well done team.

At first I was upset due to the fact this fight was believed to be bugged and considering some guilds were able to spawn up to 10 abominations I guess it was bugged, but to find out this fight was actually difficult enough to cause an untold number of threads to be created complaining about it was just amazing. At last a boss in wrath with such a steep learning curve that in the first week a vast majority of guilds were unable to clear it. Wrath has finally lit a bit of that old fire that was felt back in TBC and with any luck the rest of this instance will follow this trend. Despite a few flaws we were still able to push through and get the kill so job well done to everyone.

That being said afterwards we decided to go back to totgc and kill anub again for the first time in almost two months... talk about ridiculous. The fight is so easy after 3.3 that it’s just simply laughable not just due to the presence of 264 gear but just the small changes that make it so much easier it’s just hilarious. If you haven’t gotten your Insanity achievements yet now is certainly the time get in there and get that shit before it gets a direct nerf instead of a multitude of indirect nerfs.

Byaaaaaaaah!

I've always been a believer in there is a time for serious faces and a time for fun. The serious face comes before a kill and the fun after sometimes we tend to confuse the two, but sometimes it appears to work out so maybe I'm the one in the wrong here.

With that being said I'm not sure how much out of guild traffic we get here but for any outside raid leaders or officers who frequent this page for some reason or another take a tip from me here. People always respond to threats against them getting their gear. This is a universal fact and will always get the job done so feel free to use this tool as often as you can and I assure you your raiders will never turn against you and you will revel in continued success.

P.S. Moonslide actually survived the entirety of an anub kill for the first time ever congragulations to him from us all here in BS.

One thing I never understood about pug totc runs are the people who would die to spikes then use the excuse, "I've never done this before." I mean not hitting the ice is one thing but the people who just stand there and get killed is what really confuses me. Since when is it a good idea to just stand like a deer in headlights when big letters in the middle of your screen say, "Anub'arak is Pursuing YOU!" and you see huge spikes violently erupting from the ground heading straight towards you? Personally my first thought would be to fuckn' haul ass while screaming, "WHAT DO I DO WHAT DO I DO?!?" but these people must have self-detrimental characteristics to just stand there like that.

The sad state of Korgath Pug runs aside we finally killed a boss that should have, and quite literally would have, been dead long long ago. Unfortunately it turns out that spending 1 maybe 2 nights a week on progression content and then sitting in if the rest of the raid nights thumb twiddling our way to a kill is not the ideal manner in which to down new content. So with that lesson firmly tucked under our belts I'll take this opportunity to say that BS is currently recruiting for ICC. The classes I would like to get my hands on the most include:

1 Rogue
1 Resto Shaman
1 Resto Druid
and of course as per usual all exceptional apps are welcome and encouraged.

Also for those of you complaining about image size well unfortunately our site doesn't support image resizing but it does support you tube embedding apparently so enjoy your rediculously huge screenshot because IJDGAF!

Keep your black balls outa here!

Its surprising what you can do when you actually use more then 2 of your 5 scheduled raid nights for actual raiding let alone getting 2 nights in a row on progression content. Perhaps if people can keep their various personal issues to a minimum we may actually get some consecutive nights of anub attempts in.

That being said I gotta say soaking for the Twin Val'kyrs in the Trial of the Grand Crusader is probably one of the more fun roles I've played in a raid with controlling the blue drakes in the pre massive nerf KJ fight, when you actually had to use their abilities correctly, taking first place. If you get the opprotunity to soak I encourage you to do so and if you find yourself dreaming of chasing balls around all night just keep in mind that doesn't make you gay at all in fact It just shows how dedicated you really are.

Red rune circles actually provide a temporary buff!

2 Hours and 45 Minutes which was about 60 minutes longer then it should have taken us but some people have an affinity for catching cosmic rocks with their faces, or perhaps feet depending on how you want to think about it, but we still got it.

May the reign of the large screenshot continue for many bosses to come.

So I'm starting to think some of these late night guilds may be onto somethin here with this late night raiding shit. Zone in and get everything rolling right as all the other random dipshit guilds are giving up on Faction Champions and calling it quits for the night you guys are just getn dug in for night. We did some late night raiding ourselves tonight and gotta say aside from being east coast it was nice not seeing any lag for once.

I'll take this moment of soapbox time to ask the question:

During the Jara encounter does anyone else feel slightly sick when the look at the Nether Portal and the first thing that comes to your mind is the first time you saw a picture of goatse when you followed the link some devious bastard posted promising tits on the other end but clearly not delivering?

Not really relevant but I can't possibly be the only one... I hope...

Anyway...

We killed some shit
