Im back..for real...sort of! [Part erm..15ish?]

I guess I might as well start updating again. Apparantly some people actually read my blog so to all two of you, im back.. sort of.

My last im back post didn't really work out, mainly because I had nothing to blog about. 2 years of gaming summarised into a month (Or less)

I guess now I will just write about whatever comes to mind, game or not.

For starters, lets talk game! Hallows end is back and so is the headless horseman. He has the same loot table everything is just updated for 80 use. (ilevel200)

This year I thought it would be a good idea to get The Hallowed on all my characters to get some quick cash but the gold from the reward was pretty much worthless. Im hated with the BootyBay factions so I died in Gadgetzan and Bootybay. Over all I got them in a few hours and the total was around 300g.

Needless to say I was very disappointed! Since I never felt the need to buy an epic flying mount I never tried to save up (I couldn't either) Every gold I got seemed to go towards repairs or upgrades.

I always had a bank character but never found use in it, the effort of changing over to get gold seemed like a waste of time...but that was the point! I managed to put together 1000g and sent it over, keeping 200-300g on my main for repairs. Sure enough the gold is flowing in slowly but constantly! Currently I am at 2400 after a week and pretty excited! I have some of the achievement drakes and nearing in the Rusted Proto Drake so its going to be worth it! Not to mention gold will come faster while im flying faster.

Guild talk time! Exodus is going strong and im really glad to be a part of it. After taking a short break, the guild managed to clear Ulduar without me, so my break was cut short.

In the first week after clearing Yogg for the first time, we have killed 2/4 keepers on hardmode, We have also gotten I Choose You, Steelbreaker to unlock Algalon. We also have every meta achievement apart from Vezax and Yogg!

We cleared Yogg on normal this week so people could get a taste of it, we had devoted a whole night to it as we were expecting to wipe a lot (As 3 of our members hadn't even seen him yet) But we one shot him to everyone's suprise.

Then our GM said the words nobody was expecting to hear for weeks. "Toc Hardmode"

The sound of the words just sounded so right! I never thought we had a chance though...

First up, Northrend Beasts. The diference in this fight was that there was a strict 3 minute timer on each phase, and if you didn't kill the first boss within the 3 minutes, the second phase would come anyway!

All of the videos I watched showed all of the hardcore guilds getting the boss down just before the timer expired, so I assumed we would be wiping hard. If you watch the Tankspot video, they kill Gormok with 2 seconds before the next phase, we killed him with 15 to spare.

Nobody was expecting this so we were a bit unorganised on P2, and so we wiped. Second try, it was well, got to P3 and wiped. Third attempt and we defeat them all! Textbook progession if you ask me!

Second boss was hard as the adds done a weird silence/stun/lockout. None of this concerned me as a tank but it was funny nontheless watching the healers panic! Killed him in our second attempt.

Faction champions...it really deserves a post of it's own. So I think I will leave it here and update tomorrow!
