Consummate Vees! Consummate!

Guild meeting: April 9 @ 7:30pm.

Vizzini — Mon, 23 Mar 2009 04:13:12 +0000

Come one, come all to the Vees Guild Meeting!

I’ll post an agenda to the forum one week in advance. If you have topics you’d like to discuss, please email or in-game mail them to Vizzini.

Meeting wil be held in Ventrilo, with text chat for the microphone-less.

All guild members are welcome.

(p.s. OS 25 with one drake up: YES, WE DID IT! AGAIN!)

Bloodboil down! RoS attempted.

A messy death, for a messy fight.

Gurtogg Bloodboil died on our fifth try!

Boss kills:

Gurtogg Bloodboil at 11/9/2008 22:08:11

Loot:

Girdle of Stability – won by Visholiste
Garments of Temperance – won by Dominater

Also looted during the fight were a bunch of gems (Crimson Spinel, Lionseye, Seaspray Emerald and Shadowsong Amethyst). We ended up with 13 gems and a pile of Hearts of Darkness which I distributed randomly to everyone who joined us yesterday and today. Nine people won rolls for loot, which left 18 more to share the gems, etc. I wish we all could have got something awesome.

We abandoned Reliquary of Souls after the third try because of the late hour. We still have some practicing to do, but it seems possible. Go team! I hope we can go back, even with the distraction of the new expansion.

Black Temple results: 4 bosses down!

terrible screenshot displays our amazing prowess. also, that this instance has been nerfed.

Awesome job, raiders! 22 Vees + 3 Counting Sheeples downed Naj’entus, Supremus, Shade of Akama and Teron Gorefiend. Not bad for having only a few (very integral) raid members ever see the dungeon.

We’re going back again, tomorrow at 7pm (server time.) See you there!

Loots below the cut.

Loots:

High Warlord Naj’entus dropped:

Slippers of the Seacaller – won by Alissandra
Ring of Calming Waves – won by Mushroomblue

Supremus dropped:

Nether Shadow Tunic – won by me! Vizzini!
Choker of Endless Nightmares – won by Eezari

Shade of Akama dropped:

Shadow-walker’s Cord – won by Veebat
Grips of Silent Justice – won by Vornathar

Teron Gorefiend dropped:

Robe of the Shadow Council - won by Vecna
Botanist’s Gloves of Growth – won by Veebat

Trash mobs dropped:

epic gems: 2 Pyrestones, 2 Lionseyes, 2 Empyrean Sapphires, 2 Seaspray Emeralds and a Crimson Spinel
7 Hearts of Darkness
The Bringer of Death – as yet unallocated
Pattern: Swiftheal Mantle – won by Vindo
Plans: Swiftsteel Shoulders – won by Eezari

Grats!

Black Temple Tomorrow!

Hello raiders! Voivod wants to step into BT before we’re all engrossed in the new expansion (death knights ho!) so we’ve set up a Black Temple raid for Saturday evening, 8 pm server time. The in-game calendar only invites 100 members max and we have many more than that, so if you don’t see the event (remember, you can accept an invitation via wowarmory.com – login and click the Calendar tab on your character profile) whisper Voivod, Veebat, Vitorio or Vizzini and we’ll make sure you’re added to the invite list. We schemed this up over dim sum today. Alert your friends list, too!

Are you prepared?

Boss Killers info.
Wowwiki info.
Baby pygmy hippo info.

We’ll go over raid objectives and loot rules before we begin.

xoxo

Gruuls Lair Friday June 13

Vicerot — Tue, 10 Jun 2008 17:10:34 +0000

Hi everyone we are trying for a mostly Vees Gruuls Lair run on Friday night in place of the normal Kara run. Please sign up with the in game Calendar. Veebat is the event creator and will attempt to be on every night this week to take care of sign ups questions etc. If you signed up for Kara in the web Calendar I have moved your name over to the in game calendar.

Here are a couple resources that everyone should read so that we all understand what needs to be done by each role.

And this one from Slashignore and is one of the best descriptions of the Gruul fight and presents some very good ideas for avoiding the damage from ground slam and other AOE attacks he has.

Reminder: Guild Meeting!

Hi, Folks! We’re trying to gather all the Vees from far and wide for a Guild meeting Saturday evening at 7:30 server time. Hope to see you there!

Nerf shamans!!1!

Vizzini — Fri, 11 Apr 2008 21:25:44 +0000

Not only did Tearsome (L70 Resto Shaman) tank a Fel Reaver, he has also successfully soloed Kael’thas in Magisters’ Terrace from 21% using only his Searing Totem and tiny pew pew. The same night, he tanked Shadow Labs (joined by Vudun, L66 Resto Shaman, Vandelle, L70 Arms Warrior, Vitorio, L70 Holy Priest and Vitch, L70 Hunter) all the way to Murmur, with no party wipes.

Shamans = OVERPOWERED.

I hear he’s since respecced Enhancement.

(Grats, Tear! You rule!!!)

Forum changes!

Vitorio — Tue, 01 Apr 2008 21:59:06 +0000

I’ve made some changes to the Forum layout, consolidating some of the less used subforums and creating some new ones.

Please have a look and leave feedback/suggestions. Thanks!

Raiding feedback and roster

Vicerot — Sun, 23 Mar 2008 04:26:57 +0000

Its seems that I have some problems to work out within our raiding system for the Vees. I apologize to those that have been skipped over or left out of the runs. With the recent additions of new members and new level 70s we have gone from not being able to fill a ten man Karazan run to having more people than slots for the weekend runs.

I want to take stock of who and what classes the Vees currently have at 70 or are making their way up. Please leave a comment on this post with the role you wish to fill, either tanking, dps or healing so I can take stock of what we have for class balance. My hope is to start putting together a second Kara run with in the next couple weeks.

While I would like to see everyone get a raid spot based on sign up order, this is proving to be very difficult and stressful for those trying to organize these events. I want to make sure that all of our players are getting as much out of the guild as possible. It is proving not possible for me to keep everyone happy all the time. I am asking that everyone have patience while I try to get things organized.

A certain gear level and class balance across the raid will ensure that we can progress though the content with as few wipes as possible. To do this our raid leaders will need to build the raids to make sure that we can succeed in each try with as few problems as possible. This will mean that you may not get selected to raid every week if we are heavy on a certain class. This is the reason I want to try to get a second run into Kara, to give as many people as possible a chance to go.

Above all else I need some feed back. I am completely new to this and am feeling a little daunted by the task in front of me right now.
