Hello there!

Panda-expension is taking its course and I have to say: I am quite enjoying it. There’s a lot to do, the maps look nice, there’s some tweaks to things that make the gameplay more interesting. And now to the important news: Burning Dawn is back in the raiding business! No no, not like in the last expansion. It’s all a bit more casual and in a raid alliance (or raid horde?) with the awesome people from The Third Way. We’re also recruiting for the purpose of just hanging out together in the wonderful Dawn-y guild and for that raiding thing. Hop over to our forums if you are interested :)

So, what’s going on with the Dawn? Well, a fair amount turned into monks. But that didn’t make guild chat less… uhh…. secular. We also enjoyed our raiding break after Madness heroic so much that we decided to stick with it. We are not doing progression-oriented raids anymore but we do want to pick up some casual raiding again. Instead we are now farmers or pet battlers or achievement hunters… and of course daily rockers.

We are also actively recruiting more members. Take a look around on our website and visit our farm forum if you’re interested!

It’s time to recap Dragon Soul!

Hmm… it wasn’t the most glorious tier for the Burning Dawners. Many a player lost interest in the game and Spine heroic didn’t exactly help to keep spirits up. But we pulled through. Some amazing new people joined and we managed to kill everything Blizzard presented us with after all. Madness progression was good fun really, Spine however… not so much. But it feels good to have beaten everything yet again!

Now I feel a bit melancholic. Our world of warcraft is about to change yet again, even though we stopped that cataclysm. Almost single-handedly, haha!
Thanks to every one of you who accompanied Eitrax and me through Blackwing Descent, Firelands and Dragon Soul!

Now we shall look forward to what the panda-world is gonna bring us :)

With Christmas and New Year’s and all the progress we’ve had lately, I completely forgot to also tell the blog about all that progress!
Okay, so what have we been up to… After our clear of normal DS, Morchok heroic fell pretty quickly. Basically, you just look at him in a mean way and he hands you loot. I approve of that :) Our first Yor’sahj heroic kill took some more proper preparation, forming working priority lists. The healers went into a kind of frustrated surrendering state there that did not get any better when we started working on Zon’ozz. Those are the moments when I am glad I went to the dps-side of life :P But well done, team heal!
Hagara needed some practice, bit of a fiddly fight, planning the different phases and getting everyone through them alive. Ultraxion in comparison was more of a BD-kind of fight again. Standing around and pressing our buttons hard! =)

So, that’s where we are now, five out of eight heroic modes are done. Blackhorn will hopefully follow relatively soon, while the various forms of Deathwing can keep us busy a bit longer.

Lastly, I want to leave you with the wise words I have heard in an LFR group…
