Firelands Cleared!

 Sorry for the late post, wanted a kill-shot before posting!

On August 11th we defeated Ragnaros, the last boss of Firelands. Rag took a couple weeks to get the mechanics down and what a painful process it was. There was some heartbreaking wipes, or people dying early when we were progressing well through each phase. Ragnaros is a lengthy encounter and probably has the most abilities out of any boss, and the most situational awareness is needed. We are the 11th on the server for clearing Firelands, and we were only an hour too late from the top 10 spot!

Phase one took some getting used to - dodging flame waves, popping traps at the right time, and keeping the tanks alive.

Intermissions were probably the hardest to do. Sons of Flame were giving us headaches and heart attacks for a while. We used everyone to dps, stun and use every ability in the book to do this.

Phase two with engulfing flames and seeds had it's own challenges. We ended up tweaking this part a few times to get it right.

Phase three is probably the most hectic and heart-pounding. Not only do you have to deal with the mechanics from phase one, but we get to kill 2 more adds AND dodge flaming meteors of death.

 
Well done everyone! Heroics are soon to follow.
