So this happened last week, but I held off posting it, mostly because every time we get a boss to 1%, we come back the next week and pwn him.

I was right.

OOB has downed the Prince. And to think we almost didn’t get this attempt in because he bugged and we had respawns popping up behind us. We had to pull in a flesh beast. What fun. 🙂

So Koi got a little impatient. We’re currently clearing trash while I’m posting this, but then it is pretty cool.

It was easy, I don’t know why we ever had trouble. So then, we went to play with the prince. He didn’t want to fight us though, we just frolicked for a bit.

Well it was a weekend of firsts I must say.

Two hunters in one Karazhan group!

We DI Therk! And his cables save us from a wipe. “They work every time, 50% of the time,” says rl math teacher, Therk.

Our warlock, Rosalind breaks into the melee dps scene.

Koho gets groupies!

Nabith uses a flask for the first time, in the face of the upcoming alchemy nerf.

We met Medivh’s father.

And nearly pwned his face.

btw: That’s Koivu playing Ali…and he’s never had a rogue before. 🙂

And last night, which was actually early this morning, we got the third and final opera event.

I didn’t like it. Roar is a pain in the behind with his running and glitching through the doors. 🙁

After two weekends of spacing issues and subpar dps, we have managed to break all of the displays…I mean we’ve downed The Curator.

I know this is late, we downed him last weekend, but yours truely was home for Easter, and on her sister’s computer when this screen shot was taken, and it took just this long to get the file converted and sent over to me. I r lazy.

And due to the same fact that I was home for Easter, I was unfairly dragged from my computer mere moments after The Curator hit the floor, and thus was not present for The Chess Event*, (Which I heard was fun…and my boots got sharded…qq.) nor the clearing of the trash to Aran…or the Prince. I’m still not clear on which way they took.

*note the subpar screen shot quality, and send all complaints to Silly.

So in true tradition, after clearing out Moroes and his party goers, Therk stealthed over to the stage to get a sneak peek at our event. Big Bad Wolf, ooo yay a new one to clear. We made our way over only to run into a slight snag. With the BBW event, you have to talk to the grandma that shows up on stage in order to actually start the event. Well Therk didn’t stay around long enough for that, so Grandma sat all alone on the stage, with the door closed fast.

But we’re in luck, for Temarien has the leet sprinting and jumping skillz.

btw, you can be aggroed through the closed door. 🙂

So we did our first heroic instance as a guild. Ramparts. It was fun, we downed two bosses, but did not have the fr to down the final boss. We’ll be back though.

Moroes went down, quickly followed by a one shotted Maiden of Virtue. It was quickly shaping up to be a caster night with the cloth gear dropping.

On we went to the Opera Event, and downed the star crossed Romulo and Julienne. More caster drops, but they were nice. All together a great night for OOB.

And we pushed in farther to get a peek at The Curator before planning to come back Sunday night.

Once again we headed into the halls of Karazhan with a full balanced raid, and for the first time, with a priest among our ranks. It made a difference.

A big one.

And we even had the Maiden running scared.

So much so that she afflicted our main tank with a non-dispellable disease, causing him to have a 103 degree fever. This made an attempt during Saturday’s raid impossible.

Oh, and just as an aside, I earn my keep on the Huntsman fight. :p

After two hours of bad luck in getting our off tank attuned, we finally all assembled in front of Karazhan, Deadwind Pass, Azeroth. Potions were bought, emotions were high, and I was in my pink dress.

We stepped inside, looking around in the first baddie free lobby, and decided to take a screen shot, before realizing we were missing a drood, and had to go back out to summon her.

We started killing spectral horses, chargers, and those pesky undead humans without the comfort of a priest’s shackle. It wasn’t long before our work paid off.

Leet Epix!

But seriously, we finally came upon Midnight, less than 25 min (approximately) after starting in the stables. We engaged! We died! But we did not give up. And Attumen the Huntsman met his demise against the scouting party of OOB.

Thanks for everyone who came out an participated in the Death Race.

The winners were:
1st: Babiesaregay – Senney
2nd: Temmy – Temarien
3rd: Babywhip – Whip

Gratz to everyone, and I hope you had a lot of fun. I know I did. Picture of the starting lineup is in the ‘Images’ section. And now that everyone has found out all the tricks and cheats, we’ll just have to wait another year until you totally forget them all.

Present day note: I added the pics to this post.
