Heroic: Nefarian & Twin Dragons..
We're back on track. After a slow start to this raiding tier Hallowed has gotten the ball rolling again. In the past month we have gone from a U.S. top 140 guild and skyrocketed into the top 50 U.S. and this is where we feel we belong and even higher. A huge thanks has to go out to all of our raiders that have stayed consistent over this expansion so far. The people that stuck around farming boring ICC for months on end and have brought their focus night in and night out to all these new progression bosses. Another huge thanks to all of our new recruits and newer raid members as well. We're very pleased with how our guild is doing right now and only feel that we will keep improving each week. But we are no where near done yet. The true tests still lie ahead of us. We have 4 more bosses left in this raiding tier and we are going at them hard. We feel we can push our ranking up even higher pre 4.2 and earn ourselves some well deserved farm time to recharge and get ready for the next raiding push.
In the past 2 weeks we have killed Heroic Nefarian and Heroic Valiona & Theralion. Two challenging encounters and two very satisfying kills. On Nefarian we earned the realm first achievement for the guild and also new titles for everyone in the raid. This boss took 2 full progression nights and then a few attempts on the next night to down. Overall I was very proud of how we progressed on this fight. Each night coming back after tweaking a few things and making huge improvements in our outcomes. From a wipe at 12% to the enrage on our first night, a 4% and 1% wipe the next night and finally to a very clean kill that smashed the enrage timer. I really felt we progressed on this boss exactly how we should have.
Then on twin dragons we adapted to having to change out a few players from the very important inside realm and this change proved to be the turning point in the fight for us. Once we had a strong group in the portal phase this fight was cake. Still a fight that you can easily wipe on as there is a ton going on. But overall a fun fight.
Right now we are ranked just outside the top 50 in the U.S. and are only looking to keep pushing that even higher in the coming weeks. We’re looking for more amazing raiders to add to our core roster to help do this. Apply now and solidify your spot for 4.2’s raids. We are always looking to add the best players around to our roster, but sharing our same mindset in raiding is a must.
We are a 4 day a week 4 hour a night raiding guild. We have a laid back atmosphere and have a lot of fun during our raids. This raiding atmosphere has attributed to our very low turnover rate throughout the guilds history and we look to continue this by picking up players that mesh well with us. We take this game very seriously and will not sacrifice our progression to have friends in raid just cause they are nice. We will be taking the best raiders night in and night out. So if you earn your spot you will get to raid.
So please apply now!!! We are still running OPEN PROGRESSION RECRUITMENT for all classes and specs. If you feel you have what it takes to outperform our current raider in your spot you should apply.
