Yes, the danger must be growing . . .

For the rowers keep on rowing
And they’re certainly not showing
Any signs that they are slowing

Continuing our trend, we tackled some new bosses last night. Another 3 to be exact. So we are certainly cruising right along. So allow me show some pictures real quick:

First up, we did exactly what we planned, and went and tackled Vashj. It took us 4 tries, but the kill was nice and clean.

We ventured back to Black Temple and took out Supremus in two tries. He is not a small thing. At all.

And if you kill Supremus, there is no reason not to kill the Shade of Akama. So we did that too.

That puts us 6/6 SSC, 3/4 Tempest Keep, 3/5 Mount Hyjal, and 3/8 Black Temple. Sweet.

Here is the WoW Web Stats for the Shade of Akama kill. It’s an incredibly short fight, so my DPS output was unparalleled. But I do have a question for any readers I have that might be Warlocks. One of my guildies, Betor, has been a little distressed by her DPS output lately, and I am curious what advice anyone might have for her. She is specced for Affliction right now, and is sitting at 1112 Bonus Damage. Does anyone have any idea what kind of output you could expect at that gear level? I would appreciate the input, suggestions, or feedback. I know in Black Temple she was experiencing some framerate issues, but it has been a recurring thing that has raised her concern.

As a guild we are now faced with Azgalor and Archimonde in Mount Hyjal, Teron Gorefiend in Black Temple, and Kael’thas in Tempest Keep. We are going to hit a point now where the bosses we want to kill are going to take more than a couple tries and more than a couple nights. Personally I think we are capable of killing Teron if everyone reads up on the fight.

I downloaded Chatter and OneBag last night to test out a couple new mods. I think I managed to pinpoint what was causing my frames to stutter. After reading up on the forums it seems that if the refresh rate for Grid’s distance check is too fast it can cause a decrease in performance. Regardless, I got rid of it.

Warbull respecced Arms because we are going to go stomp some battlegrounds this weekend. Just for fun I mixing and matching gear and am going to try and load up on my Armor Penetration gear, which I can get to 750 Armor Pen as well as maintaining 300 Resilience. Which is more than enough for random Arathi Basins and Alterac Valleys.

Any questions, comments, or concerns, leave them here as always!
