And with a last-minute Garalon kill, the AK raiding team stands at 9/16 for tier 14 at the eve of patch 5.2. We will probably be returning to the tier 14 raids in the coming weeks, so be sure to stay brushed up on the remaining bosses in Heart of Fear and Terrace of Endless Spring.
Meanwhile, we plan to go straight into Throne of Thunder on launch week. Read up on Jin'rokh the Breaker and Horridon!
The Knights' push for progression is picking up steam in a big way, with a Will of the Emperor one-shot!
With this, the AK raid team is now 6/6 MSV and 1/6 HoF. We also got in lots of good attempts on Blade Lord last night, and hope to down him very soon. Good job everyone!
Well, it's been a while since the Knights attempted any progression, but we really shook off the rust tonight to down Elegon on our first night of attempts!
Thank you to everyone who showed up and put forth your best efforts, and an extra special thank you to Machnik for stepping in as our tenth tonight.
And a big thank you to all who came out to this year's winter meet-up! It was so much fun seeing all of you again!
Raiding resumes on Sunday, January 13th. Please be prepared to get back in with your A-game. We still have lots to do and see before patch 5.2 comes out!

In less than five hours, the Mists of Pandaria will part and reveal new vistas, adventures and opportunities!
The Azure Knights, too, will be ushering in some exciting new changes:
Keep an eye out for these, and happy hunting!
Go-Daddy is having problems today, and it causes folks who use www.azureknights.net to be unable to open up the site.
However, people can go to azureknights.wowstead.com and still get here, since only go-daddy is affected. Pass it on!
With Ultrax going down last night, that puts us at 2/8 in DS. Yor'sahj is next. Please make sure you participate in the current disscusion on tactics, located here:
Raiding team:
I just wanted to say amazing job to those who showed up to the raid last night. We were able to 8 man all bosses up to Ultraxion, and 9 man Ultraxion, Blackhorn and Spine.
It was tough last night, and we really felt being down the 1 DPS (it makes a HUGE difference!), and the healers had to deal with my crappy tanking, AND we were missing a few buffs, but we all came together and did great.
Just goes to show what we are capable of. Great job last night.
Amazing job last night guys!
Be sure to check your performance here:
Kaiya pointed out that it is almost a year old.
Updated!!!
As usual, you can check your performance here: http://www.azureknights.net/forums/azure-knights-only-thread/raiding-threads/1101824-running-raiding-numbers?page=4#c48
4 Bosses Down, 1 new boss at 42% despite never seeing him. 2 of the new bosses were one-shots. I'm proud of us!
I didn't get any screenshots from the new bosses (whoops!) so if you have any, send them my way and I'll post them. But here is (what I think) is an awesome screenshot of Raid and Bandit looking at Deathwing.
I think we had him to 68% best attempt! So, everyone check your performance and see what you can do better:
And make sure to watch the video on how to do it and discuss any questions\comments\concerns!
(Video for ease of finding)
Rags is DOWN! Heroic modes start next run!
7/7, great job raiders!
Here are your numbers, check your performance!
Great job on the 9-25-11 raid.
Numbers here: http://www.azureknights.net/forums/azure-knights-only-thread/raiding-threads/1101824-running-raiding-numbers?page=3#c32
In addition, here are all the screenshots I keep forgetting to put up >.>
I'm missing Shannox and Alice, if someone can get me those screenshots, I'll update! Great job guys!
2 new bosses down in one night! From 0/7 to 2/7! Very nice!
And, as usual, I pulled a raid and didn't get screenies. Sorry folks!
Taking some alts and new folks, and we still downed Cho!
Here is a video. As usual, appologies for the music. I don't listen to music that fits it, so I just found one about the same length of the video. Iron Maiden is my favorite band anyways.
Don't forget to change the video to 1080p for best viewing quality!
See the whole thing on Youtube:
With at least 4 of our players down that we know of, I doubt the raid team is going to raid tonight (Amber, if you can, please put something together with the non-raiders!)
Raid team, we will see you Wednesday!
Guild level 25 is coming up fast, and you (yes you!) can help!
Doing your dailies is a great way to get guild XP. Firelands dailies and Baradin Hold dailies offer the best guild XP, and Twilight Highlands offers a close 2nd. Doing all those dailies will help the guild get xp, and increase the size of the guilds wallet, and yours!
In addition, try and do guild runs to dungeons. Remember, it takes 3 people to get the guild run finished for a huge chunk of XP, and you only need to be the appropriate level for the dungeon. If you don't feel up to a level 85 dungeon, hop on some alts and do a lower level one! Remember that the more members beyond 3, the more XP we get!
Finally, don't neglect the power of simply questing! With everyone pitching in, we can do this!
