...Finally. Should have been dead a couple weeks ago, but unfortunately there isn't much you can do when Blizzard decides to release a boss when three-quarters of your guild has finals on the horizon. Throw that into the mix with crit errors, disconnects, instant raid-wipes on behalf of our good friends the Dark Fiends, and the ever present recruitment monster, and you end up a few weeks down the road. All that aside though, I have to give Blizzard props once again for tuning their encounters in Sunwell. One person offline for any prolonged period of time and you're pretty much guaranteed a wipe (I can assure you that 5% phase 2 wipe with a warlock offline for the duration of phase 2 was quite enjoyable). Ironically enough though, I hope Kil'jaden is tuned the exact same way.

Grats to Glayde on Bladed Chaos Tunic, Fourwalls on Garments of Serene Shores, Nodozz on Shadowed Gauntlets of Paroxysm, and Fayes on Sin'dorei Band of Dominance.

Recruitment Update (July 1): Recruitment is always open for great players, however currently we are looking for the following classes slightly more than others to supplement our roster.

- Ret Paladin - Very High
- Shadow Priest - High

- Hunter - Medium
- Warlock - Medium
- Holy Priest - Medium

- Shaman - low

Well, it took more than a day for this one, but Felmyst finally went down. I don't think I've ever fought against a more tightly tuned mob in all of my time playing this game. The 10 minute enrage timer is really deceiving after killing Brutallus, but I'd honestly say Felmyst's 7 million hitpoints were harder to take down in 10 minutes, than Brutallus' 10 million in 6.

Grats Aldaric on 8/8 T6, Thurstie on the Vanquisher boots, Samadi on the Conqueror boots, and Ugen on Leggings of the Immortal Beast.

Now to wait for the twins.

After a long period of downtime (once again) testing on patch 2.4 was finally concluded on the PTR, and it was released to live. Having killed Kalecgos several times on the PTR, we wasted no time in killing him once again, only this time for real. Big surprise, our loot was far less than astounding, but what's new in Ascent these days. Hopefully Brutallus is a bit more generous.
