We came back to do
Soa after the 1.1 patch on 8 man hardmode this Friday expecting a difficult but less bug prone fight. What we found was a considerably easier end boss which went down on our first try of the evening.
In general our raid was pretty underwhelmed with the fight but I think it had more to do with us having had so much practice and getting screwed by so many bugs, though admittedly there are fewer lightning balls spawning in phase 3 and the reduced range on their lightning helps quite a lot!
Even if Soa remained more or less bug free during our kill, he still managed to screw us over one last time by not providing any loot.

It's been a good while now since Dragon Soul was released and we didn't have a single news post about stuff dying, nor general news on how Furious Gaming is rolling on in WoW.
Well, we've been doing okay in our eyes. Sure, something could have been better but here is a short roundup of our adventures!

We had our first raid in Star Wars: The Old Republic this Friday, mostly as a feeler on what raiding is like in this shiny new game.
Karagga's Palace (8N) was our first destination and despite it being a 1 tank fight the raid agreed to at least try it once with our two loyal tanks. Everyone showcased their amazing kiting talents and six minutes later we had our first operation kill, Bonethrasher down!

Furious Gaming is currently recruiting for the soon to be released SWTOR. We will be launching a new branch in this game and have the intention to (casually) raid the galaxy!
Since this is a new game and our roster has in no way been finalized yet this is a golden opportunity to play a game with Furious Gaming.
In the meantime, the WoW branch is also looking for applications of all classes and specs to prepare for the possibility that some members might switch to the SWTOR branch in the near future.

After two nerfs and a total of over 260 attempts we ended up with what we believe to be a solid tactic that works for us. This solid tactic resulted in us having one 1-2% wipe yesterday and then again three or four 1-2% wipes today.
But in the end, Ragnaros heroic went down into a smouldering pile of ash.

So, we only had Baleroc and Domo left. We started our work on Baleroc, a fight where (while healers are getting their learning done) attempts last between 30 and 60 seconds...
And, on serious attempts, you prepot and then bloodlust after 5-10 seconds into the fight. It does get a little frustrating every now and then.
