After months of hard work, the screenshot says it all. We really been waiting a long time for this.

Not a clean kill but with more practice we should be able to down it with less problems.

Paragon has posted an article on how their guild works and the challenges they faced on their journey to be the first and only guild to down LK with 5% buff on H ICC25m. Something that caught my eye though,

In spite of that sounding kind of harsh, nobody has ever been kicked out of Paragon because of messing up. Only in rare occasions, someone has been removed from a raid and replaced by someone else. And there have been mistakes. Back in ToGC, one of the shamans cost the guild an Insanity kill as he forgot to put down Healing Stream Totem and his whole group died. And in ICC, the officers once spent half an hour discussing tactics in front of Blood-Queen Lana’thel, only to pull just as everyone got a huge lag spike that wiped them instantly.

“It raised some emotions. When that happens, we try to calm people down. If stuff really got out of hand, we would probably just stop raiding. There is no point in raiding when you are angry, people will get angry at themselves and others if they mess up. But pretty much everyone failed on Lich King at some point. The encounter is so unforgiving that even when reacting perfectly, you can still fail because you aren’t at the right spot,” Lazeil says.

So next time someone messes up, take a chill pill guys, it happens to the best of us. A guild cannot survive if we rage over each other. Instead of raging try to be more constructive and see if you can help the person.

Just don’t die or DC and get bitten in the right order.
Sounds simple, but executing that is not trivial. Grats to everyone on the kill.

Great news everyone! The lich king is down! This opens the heroic mode doors to our guild!

Due to some core players leaving and taking breaks, we were a month late in getting to the lich king, but we are still one of the few alliance guilds to have killed him! 
Good job everyone and congratulations on Kingslayer title! More kills will follow in our other 10 man runs.

Quite a number of people are having login problems usually having the following symptoms.

1) Loading bar stuck at 100%
2) Game trying to patch even though it is already patched and patch fails.

Possible solutions can be found on the Wow Technical Support Forums

I suspect that the poor attendance on Thursday might have been aggrevated by people unable to login.

Putricide down!

A very close one, but he is finally down. Grats to all those who turned up for the kill.

Mystics is currently looking for range dps (Warlock, Boomkin, Shadow Priest)

If you have high DPS, good raid awareness and can raid during 10pm server time slots, we welcome you to apply on our forums.

We are currently 7/12 bosses in ICC. We are currently working towards farming Valithra and killing Putricide. We are a +8GMT alliance guild and our most active hours are 9.30pm to 1am server time. Our raiding days are Wednesdays, Thursdays and Mondays.

Mystics uses an epgp system. This fair loot system ensures that loot is distributed evenly and not just to the person who hordes dkp.  You can read about epgp here.

Mystics members range from high school students to university students to working adults. Our 10man groups are in the top 10 in the server in terms of progression and we hope to have more skilled players join us in defeating the lich king.

Although a few  months late, we finally defeated Algalon 10!  Sporadic attemtps and inconsistent raid make up made a hard boss even harder.

Good job everyone!
