It's hard to keep the site updated when you're killing bosses so quickly. Marrowgar, Gunship, Saurfang, Valithria, Rotface down! More coming this week, stay tuned. Posted: 02/15/2010 by Cauthon Lich King Defeated! After a very difficult struggle, Temerity has vanquished the Lich King in 25 man Icecrown Citadel, unlocking hard modes! Two groups also defeated the Lich King in 10 mans, paving the way for a fun week full of hard mode progression. Congratulations to everyone for their hard work and excellent accomplishment.

Posted: 02/07/2010 by Cauthon Lich King, here we come - Frostwing Halls cleared! Temerity quickly vanquishes the third wing of Icecrown Citadel, leaving nothing between us and the Lich King himself! Emphasizing personal responsibility and survivability, Sindragosa posed a challenge reminiscent of both Anub'arak in that the final phase is about survival rather than burning and of Sapphiron simply because it's a freaking frost wyrm. Great job, guys! Next week, we save Azeroth! Posted: 01/24/2010 by Cauthon Blood-Queen Lana'thel dusted, Crimson Halls cleared! New wing opens, new wing falls. Yet again, Temerity clears all new content the week of its release by slaying Blood-Queen Lana'thel. A completely different kind of challenge than Putricide, Lana'thel brings us a true DPS race combined with positional sensitivity and very high raid awareness requirement.

The Crimson Hall (25 player) now complete! Great job, everyone -- next up, the Lich King himself!
Posted: 01/11/2010 by Antheon Lessons learned from Professor Putricide Kill the Ooze, kite the Gas Cloud, position, position, position, this is what the fight is all about. It's not a very difficult fight and in a way quite forgiving in terms of dps requirement, considering it's a normal mode boss, Blizzard did a very good job designing this fight.

We have everyone stack up on the volatile ooze target the last few seconds before it explodes to help spread the damage and still have enough dps to burn the ooze down before it reaches the next target. We made a few changes to our strategy after 2 close phase 3 wipes, mainly handling of maleable goo and working on a clean transition into phase 3. We killed Professor Putricide with 4 attempts remaining and this completes the achievement The Plagueworks (25 player). Great job everyone.

Posted: 11/21/2009 by Antheon Alone in the Darkness completed Well Done, it's better late than never. We outgear Alone in the Darkness (25 Player) the moment we first attempted this fight 3 weeks ago. Phase 3 can still be very challenging if the immortal guardians are not handled correctly.

Thank you everyone for their effort and bright ideas on how to handle phase 3, after going through multiple iteration, we finally got a strategy that works for us. Kudos to the hunters and tanks for taking care of the marked guardians, the melee dps and warlocks for destroying Yogg-saron and tanks with the help of caster dps keeping the rest of the immortal guardians under control.

The most important loot in this fight Mimiron's Head goes to Chiral, in the process also made Trends (Hunter's luck) a very rich raider for the best 98 roll I've seen so far. Congratulations to both of them.

Posted: 10/12/2009 by Antheon We have answered the Call of the Grand Crusade I want to say that our next objective in this fight is to defeat this boss with more than 10 people alive at the end. After the defeat of Anub'arak we have now completed the achievement Call of the Grand Crusade (25 player). Tribute run is now just around the corner. Congratulations to everyone, you all have done an amazing job.

The following items dropped:
Strength of the Nerub
Belt of Deathly Dominion
Regalia of the Grand Vanquisher
Regalia of the Grand Protector
Posted: 09/14/2009 by Antheon Eydis Darkbane and Fjola Lightbane completed This boss encounter, if not difficult, can definitely be considered a step up from all the other raid bosses we've fought in the past. Some abilities are recycled content, but with the introduction of bouncing orbs, it's a whole new experience, and a boss worth taking down every week.

The orbs are so important in fact, that our strategy revolves around keeping them under control from start to finish. So if you enjoy taking balls to the face, then there's no doubt you will enjoy this fight.
Posted: 09/06/2009 by Antheon Azeroth Saved and Algalon Defeated Algalon Observed (25 player) has been defeated after spending approximately 2 hours and 40 minutes on the encounter, signaling a full clear of Ulduar 25. Algalon may be considered the last boss in Ulduar, but there is still one final challenge remaining: Alone in the Darkness (25 player). As we continue to balance our raid time throughout the week to work on Trial of the Grand Crusader. Ulduar will not be left forgotten! We will still see much of Yogg-saron in the coming weeks.

Execellent progress this week in Ulduar and Trial of the Grand Crusader guys! Keep it up!

These items dropped from Algalon last night.
Legplates of the Endless Void
Boundless Gaze
Star-beaded Clutch
Reply-Code Alpha
Posted: 08/21/2009 by Antheon Freya, Mimiron and Yogg-saron Hard Mode completed in 1 night Last night was an amazing night for the guild, 3 new hard mode bosses completed in a single night. Although the Freya Knock, Knock, Knock on Wood (25 player) fight is no where near it's original difficulty, it's still a fun fight overall, what excites me the most is the level of coordination we have shown in executing our strategy, this shows how much we have learned the past 2 weeks to play together as a team. We still got a long way to go but we are definitely moving in the right direction.

Our first venture into Mimiron Firefighter (25 player) and we got this boss down on our 5th attempt. Totally unexpected and a little disappointed for not being able to learn this fight in its former pre-nerf glory.

Yogg-saron One Light in the Darkness (25 player) completed with 1 more raid day to spare. We are near but Ulduar is far from over at this point, as we continue to push Ulduar progression, only Auriaya stands in our way now for our Ironbound Proto Drake achievement, we now also shift our focus to Algalon. Keep up the good work.
Posted: 08/17/2009 by Antheon Val'anyr, Hammer of Ancient Kings After a couple months of raiding and overcoming much obstacles. Adrielassa finally was able to forge Val'anyr, Hammer of Ancient Kings for Temerity's first legendary item of "Wrath of the Lich King" expansion. Thanks to all who contributed and helped made this possible.

Also, amazing job on our Three Lights in the Darkness (25 Player). Yogg-Saron hard mode is within reach. Keep up the good work.
Posted: 07/27/2009 by Antheon General Vezax and Saronite Animus defeated Congratulations guys! That's two new hard mode bosses completed again this week!

I Love the Smell of Saronite in the Morning (25 Player); this fight can be unforgiving to small mistakes. It took us a few attempts to get comfortable with the mechanics: dodging Shadow Crashes, moving away during Mark of the Faceless and interrupting those Searing Flames. Great job everyone and let's continue to play our best, only three hard mode bosses remain!

Vezax dropped the following:
Boots of the Forgotten Depths
Metallic Loop of the Sufferer
Flare of the Heavens
The General's Heart
Fragment of Val'anyr Congratualations to Adrielassa on her 30th fragment!
Posted: 07/23/2009 by Antheon Hodir Hard Mode completed I Could Say That This Cache Was Rare (25 Player) this hard mode is all
about the environment. Once the raid is able to fully utilize the buffs
given out by the NPCs, it is just a matter of time before Hodir hands
over his cache.

Completely forgot about the screenshot.

Oh well.

images/Bosses/Hodir.gif Posted: 07/20/2009 by Antheon Steelbreaker and Thorim hard mode completed I Choose You, Steelbreaker (25 Player) is an interesting fight especially during phase 3, the raid cannot afford anyone dying other than tanks to meet the dps requirement for finishing off Steelbreaker. Kudos to our healers and paladins for keeping the rest of the raid alive.

It's interesting Lose Your Illusion (25 Player) is the 3rd hard mode boss we killed for the first time after we have decided it's going to be the last attempt for the night. This only shows everyone's motivation to push content and respecting our limited raid time by playing their best.
Posted: 07/13/2009 by Antheon Congratulations on the guild's first Yogg-Saron kill We're all proud of everyone's performances last night, we got a lot of people who haven't seen Yogg-Saron 25 man until last night, and our phase 1 executation is just flawless from beginning to end. It took us only 3 attempts to get our group synergy together and Yogg-Saron was defeated.

Yogg-saron dropped the following items:
Mantle of the Wayward Protector x2
Chestguard of the Fallen God
Blood of the Old God
Fragment of Val'anyr Congratualation to Adrielassa on her 24th fragment.

Keep up the good work, hard mode Ulduar here we come.
Posted: 07/03/2009 by Cauthon New Forums! Our new forums are now online! Check them out!
We're growing quickly, but we're still recruiting, so get in early -- it's going to be a great ride. Posted: 06/30/2009 by Cauthon Congratulations on Glory of the Ulduar Raider! Congratulations on Temerity's first night as a guild completing One Light in the Darkness (with Hodir up, no less!) with assistance from two members of Premonition. Great accomplishment, with more to come!

Grats to Dkez, Wiingman, Bozu, Lw, Adrielassa, Antheon, Sohl, Daydream, Nasri, and Zenithstorm!
Posted: 06/30/2009 by Cauthon Recruiting! Much like most brand new guilds, Temerity is recruiting. Currently we are recruiting all specs and classes (though gnomes require a special exemption). This is your chance to be an early member of a mature, progression-oriented guild that already contains a high level of expertise -- just check out the achievements of our core (roster link on the right).

Our hope is to hit 25 man raiding viability as quickly as possible, but not at the expense of lowered standards -- we recruit only the best, most motivated raiders who share our values. Until then, we will be running hard mode 10 mans and working on Algalon, Glory of the Ulduar Raider, and other very difficult achievements. Skill matters far more than gear, though the gear, gems, enchantments, and talents you choose and effort you put into your character are very important. Our schedule is 7:45PM muster with the first pull being at 8:00PM and raid ending at 11:30pm PST. Temerity raids three nights a week: Wednesday, Thursday, and Sunday.

If Temerity is a guild you would like to be a part of and you wish to apply, please read our application process and post your application.

Thanks!
Cauthon
Posted: 06/30/2009 by Cauthon Welcome to Temerity! Please excuse the rather spartan look of the site for the moment; we are quite new and working hard to get all of the pieces together.

In short, Temerity of Windrunner is an end-game progression guild on the Windrunner-US server. The vision of Temerity is simple; unlike many progression guilds, we raid 25 man raids only three nights a week -- perfect for busy people who want to push their limits but have time for their friends, family, and job. Given than constraint, raid time is a valuable and rare commodity that we work hard to protect. In Temerity, no one will waste your time, but we will expect very high performance, focus, and attendance.

Policy details, rules, etc, are still being worked out. Please email cauthon@temerityofwindrunner.com or contact Cauthon or any Temerity member in-game if you have any questions or are interested in joining our elite band of raiders.

Thanks!
