Molten Core in a different light.

Holy mother of... (work safe, some foul language, way picture heavy.. and insane.)

Something new is coming...Zul'Aman

* 0. Zul'Aman Clarification | 07/12/2007 12:03:08 PM EDT

quote reply

I've been following a lot of the reactions on the WoW forums as well as the fansite forums to our announcement of Zul'Aman. I've noticed that there's a little bit of confusion as to some comments that were made in various articles that said that (I am paraphrasing here) "Zul'Aman will be more casual than Karazhan."'

Of course, what most of us in the WoW community have come to realize over the past few years is that the term "casual" means different things to different people. In fact, I am at the point where I try to avoid using the term at all. I've come to discover that most players consider themselves "Casual" when it supports their argument and likewise, they think of themselves as "hardcore" when convenient. We have the largest Casual Hardcore (or Hardcore Casual) community of any MMO out there!

All joking aside, the clarification is this:

--Zul'Aman will be a 10-person raid zone
--Zul'Aman will be on a quicker reset than 7 days (some might call this "casual")
--Zul'Aman will be MORE difficult than Karazhan and drop better loot (some might call this hardcore)
--Zul'Aman will feature 6 bosses and it's our goal that you can kill them all in one night -- perhaps 2-3 hour clear times (some might call this casual)
--Zul'Aman will not have a key requirement. Nor will it have an attunement quest\ (some might call this casual)
--Zul'Aman will have a VERY challenging timed quest for those who choose to participate in it. This *will be* hardcore and will be very rewarding. Players do not have to engage in the timed run (very similar to the Baron run in Stratholme)
--We're tuning the first boss in Zul'Aman to require less raid coordination than some other raid bosses. He will still hit very hard so you'll need to be geared properly but it won't take 15 minutes to explain the fight. It will be a simple yet challenging fight. The other boss fights get more complex and challenging from there. If players want a basis of comparison, imagine the tuning of ZA started around Nightbane/Prince difficulty and ramped up from there.

ZA is a very cool looking zone. It will feature brand new troll models -- Forest Trolls. They are very impressive looking. There will also be a large amount of brand new item art in the zone. We'll get screenshots of this out soon.

I know this question is going to come up so I'll answer it now -- Yes, you can totally skip Karazhan if you're an amazingly elite guild who doesn't have time to key up for KZ yet can face the challenges of ZA without gearing up in KZ. Have fun storming the castle.

Onyxia Keys - Part Two

Tue, 12 Jun 2007 07:07:31 -0700

With our Monday Azeroth raiding we are looking at trying some of the content that we have not as a guild done before. One of these things will be raids on the vile dragon Onyxia.

I myself am currently not done my key quest to enter her lair, and I know a number of others in the guild are not yet finished either. So I am going to start hosting some groups/raids to get people through their key quests.

Please post below if you are interested and at what stage of the key quest you are currently at.

Monday Night happy fun time

Tue, 01 May 2007 01:01:47 -0700

So, those of you who did not come to the monday night fun missed out! We had some fun messing around with a world dragon and then went to AQ 20 and killed Osirian (finally, huzzah!). I would strongly encourage everyone who can to come to these, it is a lot of fun and we get to do something together as a tribe. Kosath goes to a lot of effort to get it organized. So come and enjoy it. For the Horde!

Mondays in Azeroth

Thu, 12 Apr 2007 04:38:49 -0700

The enemies of the Tribe have begun to grow comfortable after too long of a reprieve. The Hakkari stir in their jungles. The Silithid gather beneath the sands. The Black Dragonflight feels confident in its hold over Blackrock Spire. The Scourge plot new schemes in the absence of Lordaeron's defenders.

It is time we reminded them that a watchful sentinel still remains.

((After the fun time many of us had in Zul'Gurub killing Jin'do and others, it was suggested that we expand on this day a bit. Therefore I am announcing Mondays in Azeroth.

Starting at 5:30 on mondays, we will gather in the old world and tackle ZG, AQ20, or a 40-man depending on how many people show up. These events will be open to any Tribemate over 60th and will be a fun time for RPing and exploration. There are still many places we have not seen or would like to see more of (ie. ZG faction and enchants), so we shall do it as a Tribe. I hope to see you all there.))

Jin'do the Hexer

Fri, 06 Apr 2007 04:10:53 -0700

It has been several months now since we have raided as a Tribe. We have all had a great deal to do in Outland and it has been enjoyable exploring a large amount of new content. Yet there is a certain restlessness among us... a desire to join together in a common goal once more. With that in mind, I am planning to ramp up Tribal raids again, and I know just where to begin.

The Zul'Gurub raid we formed with Rotten Luck back in the fall of 2005 was actually the first significant Horde raid on Silver Hand to push into that zone. Others were either too far ahead or too far behind that level of content, but it suited us very well. When other raids later began moving into the zone, even those who were ahead of the curve in content, it was almost invariably with a member of Ironsong along as a guide. We had not only defeated the majority of the bosses, but we actually understood how they worked. That is a subtle, but very important, distinction.

And yet even with our success, one opponent repeatedly bested us. He became a nemesis to us... one that was clearly tailored to a higher level of raw damage than our gear could provide. Of course, I speak of Jin'do the Hexer.

This entity has remained a stain on the honor of the Tribe for too long, and I believe it is time we had our revenge.

On Monday, Apirl 9th at 6PM game time, we will face him again. I would like to send in every able-bodied Tribemate of 60th level or higher who can attend. We will make as many raids as necessary to ensure that everyone is able to go.

A second evening will be set up at a time yet to be announced. After that, we will turn our focus to Outland. But for now, this is where the road to Illidan begins.

I am sad but have a proposal.

Fri, 23 Feb 2007 21:10:07 -0800

Yes, I am sad. I am sad that I joined WoW so late as to miss the growth and development of the Tribe and the characters as individuals. I am sad that I did not immediately choose a Horde character on Silver Hand to join you in August rather than October and grow with you. I am sad that I never raided with you and I am upset with Blizzard for TBC and making the classic raids and endgame instances obsolete. However, I am going to 'give' you something as a thank-you for what you've given me thus far.

Willexis just got her Naxxramaas attunement today and I know that the Tribe has never done a Naxx raid as you have all the others, so I am encouraging everyone to get Naxx attunement if you haven't already and run it after all the other raids are done. I know Black Temple is almost ready and Mount Hyjal is still in the pipe so Naxx will still be an option. I hope you all, particularly Tae, think this over and work towards it. My raiding community still does Naxx even with 70s and it is a challenge, plus the armor sets are quite good even by TBC standards.

Best wishes to the Tribe,
Shealtiel Firefox.

P.S. I wanna see Kel'Thuzad get pwned!

Checking Rolls this week...

Sun, 03 Dec 2006 19:20:19 -0800

All this week, everyone will need to be sure to check your own rolls on the site. I will not be home on my computer, so therefore will not be running DSP. If anything, I will try to update the rolls after Wednesday in the post itself (but not the HTML version of the spreadsheet, since I need to be at home for that).

Just an FYI!
