10 wipes, and lots of repairs later...

Lady Vashj - our number one fan favourite fish for many moons now, has tragically met her unfortunate end tonight.

Early reports suggest that she was attacked by a mob of around 20 people in what Azerothian NPC's (Nasty Police Characters) are calling a savage and brutal murder.

So far the Mob has yet to be apprehended and caught but the NPC's have released this photo discovered at the crime scene.

(warning the image is graphic and may frighten younger audiences)
as you can clearly see this is the handy work of the notorious group Phoenix Legion, who have been linked to a number of murders of late, the NPC Alliance does not seem to be able to stop their violent rampage.

We held an interview with a close personal friend of Lady Vashj, a (self declared) Prince Kael'thas Sunstrider, a respected member of the community of Outland

Q- Sir Kael'thas what are your feelings to the seemingly random unprovoked murder of your close personal friend lady Vashj

K- *sob* This act was commited out of sheer maliciousness, i want to see Phoenix Legion brought to justice! if the NPC alliance was any good at their jobs they would have sent Hogger after PL long ago!

Q- Well im sure you want justice. but i hear Hogger is a little busy in Northrend at the moment, something about recruiting Arthas into the NPC Alliance. We have heard some currently unconfirmed reports that Phoenix Legion have got you next on their target list, does this frighten you at all?

K- Frighten? it terrifies me! in fact i don't think Ive left my Keep in nearly a year!, and with this tragedy i intend on locking the door! Only a very few raid boss dare walk outside their own homes these days.

Q- thank you for this interview Sir Kael'thas


So there you have it folks, Phoenix Legion have downed lady Vashj, and are now setting their sights on Prince Kael.

Shade meets his maker.

Shade Of Akama Down!

Our Progress streak continues with the Shade of akama, this one wasnt easy since we really didnt have the ideal raid setup, only 1 mage for CC :<
Grats Phoenix Legion Once again for great progress! 3/9 BT!


Some people had to leave after this so we decided to clear up to Teron 22 man, Hillarity follows with the most painfull wipe i think we ever experianced, Teron is a hard nut to crack it seems. We called it a night, and most probably a week here since we are headed off to Vashj on monday and dont do 25 man raids at the weekend.

However i think that we should have no problem reaching Teron Gorefiend again next week with the little trouble the first 3 bosses gave us, so ive been reading up on the tactics Here, Also on our forums was linked an interesting little mini game designed to give the player a "mini" experiance of the ghosts on the Gorefiend encounter, it is exactly right, but it does the job of giving you a basic understanding of what needs to be done in the short time you have as a ghost. Check out this minigame Here!

Fun night, even with many many wipes included.

An Extreme AV

Hello readers,

today i bring you a story of a AV last night that was just a little bit different from the norm.

i was happily in AB, carrying on with my rep grind (80 more games to win) when a guild mate starting shouting about a AV that he was in being "bugged", and that there were no NPCs, No reinforcements, No mana/rage/energy costs and nobody could die. Of course i had to see this for myself, So after my AB was finished i joined AV29 - to play with my friend.

He was almost right. The AV had bugged with the preparation buff still active after the gates had opened, there were indeed no NPC's and no energy costs on moves, He was wrong however, about not being able to die.

People could die, they took damage, its just that their health Regen was roughly around 10,000 per 5 seconds, even in combat, making killing people a very hard thing to do.

This was the most Epic AV ever! i spent around an hour zerging around with the rest of horde on the field of strife destroying alliance, barely nobody left the game because it was the most fun anyone in there had had in ages, so after joining about 30 minutes late, and playing an hour of this AV, i checked the score board, i was pleasantly surprised.




1.25 MILLION damage, and a clear 400,000 more damage than the person below me, and even better than that (in my eyes anyway) the top alliance damage dealer was from Eonar as well, Nerf us!

Class leader

Heeeey guys.

First of all, a big sorry for not posting in the last...err...long time, I've been crazy busy with Raids, and exams that are coming up, but i promise i have 3 really big posts in the works. They should be done soon for you, but until then you will have to do with this awesome new update to my rogue life.

My Guild, being the crazy bastards that they are, Have promoted me to the rank of Rogue Class Leader! YaaaaaaY

i now have access to certain rights and privileges, and of course some extra responsibilities (but good ones)

Let's look at what i *can* do now:-
  1. i now have the rights to invite, remove, promote and demote rogues
  2. i now have unlimited access to the guild bank (not to be abused though)
  3. i can now fully repair from the guild bank (to be abused, imo :)
  4. i can now access the Officer channel on ventrillo, to bitch about members to other officers
  5. i now have access to the officer chat, pretty much the same reason as above
  6. i can now see all the boards available on the Phoenix Legion forums, a lot of interesting stuff gets said here, so that's great
But of course with all that comes
  1. Now, like the elder rank before, i am in charge of looking after all the rogues in PL
  2. this includes spec and gear advice
  3. maintaining a reasonable level of active rogues in the guild
  4. Helping out with any general officer stuff (raid leading, giving out stuff from the gbank, etc.)
All in all, Quincey is a happy rogue again, and i am looking forward to abusin......i mean, responsibly using my new admin powers ;)

(Time to break out that good old Mspaint again)



/Hug A new Rogue Blog for you all to read - His blog covers his adventures as a dwarf (*snigger*) rogue, A well written and even better presented blog its definitely worth a look in

and i have also recently discovered The Rambling Bear! She who dares blog about what no other blogger has blogged before!...well, maybe not, but all her (I'm saying her, but we all there are no girls on the interwebz) her posts are well written and usually have a fair bit of humour about them.

In other News, My life is getting hectic again, i have coursework due in for Tuesday morning that just needs that last little *push* to get finished that i have been putting off for 2 months and i have a load of revision to get done, BUT! the end is now in sight! In exactly 1 month and 5 days i will be completely done with college, after 4 painful years. My sights will be set firmly on University (after a nice long break, of course).
