There goes the shade

I know, for most of you reading this will more be a reason to smile and shake your head. So what. Today we downed Aran’s shade for the first time. Now before you start laughing I’d like to state that most of our members, or better put: Most of our characters just started to play in late April, so less than half a year ago. Some not having had any WoW-Experience whatsoever.

It was our third rush into Karazhan and it went perfectly smooth, except for one wipe on the Opera Event: We encountered Wizard of Oz for the first time and the first attempt was pure Chaos. Everything else went smooth and almost perfect. Curator only got one evocation in which we nailed him down to 20% – those 20% we managed to rip off of him before he got to evocate again.

Everyone got some nice new equipment, nothing had to be disenchanted and we managed the one thing we really wanted: Get Aran killed before the nerf hits with the patch. After all I think everyone did a great job today and am looking forward to our first total clearance of the place. Nightbane and the Prince will be easy going, probably one attempt or two to get used to the fight, but after all those are no complicated encounters. Netherspite might be a bit harder, but I want those shoulders so he’ll have to go down too.

    Congratulations,I remember when I started playing last year and my guild got seriously blocked by Aran. Its amazing how we went on a three month alt hiatus and reformed a guild and blew through Karazhan. Hopefully in Naxx you’ll get that kind of feeling too, without it being too easy. =P

    Grats. I just had my first Nightbane kill last Saturday. He’d been wiping us repeated so that was a great feeling. Aran for whatever reason my guild can get down in one or two tries every time.

    When a first boss kill happens is irrelevent. If its an accomplishment for you, revel in it!

    Everyone past you celebrated their first Aran in probably the same manor, and with the same excitement. Congrats, and good luck with the rest of Kara!

    Congrats guys, our problem in Kara was Illhoof for some reason. Isnt it funny though, after you kill a boss the first time he seem way easier the next time. I havnt been in kara for a few months but we are actually going back monday just to see how much was nerfed lol.

    I have never had to many problems in kara on my rogue. BUT there are some times when you get people that don’t listen in the netherspite fight and cross a beam… usually at that point it is a wipe. unless you got someone on the ball. Aran isn’t to bad. it helps a lot if you have people interrupting his casts and make sure the casters stay out of the blizzard and the silence area

    Grats on getting him down though guys. Kara is your stepping stool. get your gear then get into 25 mans asap
