Your New Guild Leader: Perellius

Best of luck, everyone.

In RL Tunhgoud is Chester Bennington

Karazhan Day 1

.

WHAT THE FUCK!

.

The Patch

Well 2.2 came out w/ voice, don’t know what you guys think of it. But, judging by this screenshot I took, it seems if it’s not AV weekend, AV weekend is a farm. Hours and hours of standstills, now that Horde play instead of AFK’n. Not that I care, I don’t need mark’s at the moment just honor, but AV used to be the easiest, now I think it’s the hardest to get mark’s for!

Comments?

Btw, if anyone wants to submit their own videos or screenshots, let me know, I will happily host them no matter what the size.

Today’s Raid

Today’s raid was canceled by me at 1:30PM when we had 6 people online, 4 of which just started an instance. The raid was scheduled for Darkshore, however; an unexpected raid on Terran Mill brought GFR and BBRB (Bound by Royal Blood) together to assault the Alliance.

On arrival of Terran Mill, we found it quiet and empty. As Nekronn and I ventured forward, we found about 10 Alliance gathered in a pod. All of which were below 50. I’d say the two of us (plus a few from the raid group) took them down in about 7 seconds.

This was a great raid on Southshore which held up for about 20 mins, before a shit-show of 70’s came. Until then, we brought chaos to Shouthshore.

CoT Dark Portal

Update by Archeron:
I no longer need BM, however Baddel is STILL farming for his trinket.

Submited by: Baddel

A Note For All Fellow Gankers:

Hey everyone, I’m just writing to inform you all of the need to run Durnholde and Dark Portal still. There are a few players who are approaching level 70 rapidly or just reached it and need to begin their Karazhan Key Questing. Off the bat, I know of Zanixus, Sidious and Perelis(sorry if spelling isn’t right, Per). Coincidentally, Archeron and I need to kill Temporus (2nd boss of BM, 12th wave) a bunch of times to each obtain a different item that he drops. Arch for the “Starlight Lamp” and I for the “Hourglass of the Unraveller.”
I would be willing to help all who need both Durnholde and BM, I can’speak for Archeron, but if we have a guild BM group, I think he would probably go, but don’t quote me. So if you read this, please give us a hand in aquiring our particular items. Thank you.

For fighting Temporus multiple times we will need to do the following:

All must have a beacon.

After first boss (Chronos, 6th Wave) Beacon use commences.
- one beacon per wave from wave 7 to 12.
- on 12th Wave(Temporus fight) drop beacon at Medivh and focus damage on boss for duration of beacon’s life.

After sencond boss fight we loot and exit instance during the allocated minute of rest given after big boss fights.
- Wait out Reset Timer( DON”T use Party leader reset function or adds will all return) and begin again.

Repeat until all are satisfied.

That is pretty much the whole scheme, not that hard and relatively quick. People just need to understand that the group does not disband till everyone has what they need.

Sunday Raid

We will be holding another raid this Sunday on __________ (check your ingame MOTD for location)

The passed couple of weeks we have had nice turnouts, would be great to see that again this week

And like usual, a video will accompany this raid, which will be posted the following morning.

Nekronn’s Baby Girl (Olivia)

You can view all the images that Nek sent me here.

Cooking with Archeron!

Today we will be cooking a tuna melt!

What you will need:
Some sort of oven
A burrito shell
Can of tuna
2 kraft singles slices

For desert you will need:
2 Tums
4 Peptobismol – 4 tsps

This is so simple, even a pro gamer can do it!

Taste: 2/10

Menethil Harbor: Dented

This Sunday our target was Menethil Harbor. The sheer number of guards astounded us, and we without a doubt got served. However, that doesn’t mean we didn’t have fun!

Check it out!

Download: Menethil Harbor

More raiding!

A new target for Sunday’s raid has been added to your ingame MOTD. Check it out!

Last week’s turnout was pretty good, I’d like to see even more out for this one! Come out for 30 mins to support your guys, and get in the video

Archeron.org – Launched

Just thought I would let everyone know I have launched my own portal/blog/whatever thing.

So I know how many of you have the old blog bookmarked so, make sure you update them!

Okay now go farm me some g0ld z0mg.

Southshore: Destroyed

Today for our Sunday raid we took out Southshore. We were there for about 45 minutes with minimal Alliance resistance, bustin’ down vendors like Nek’s mom. We had a nice turnout, and everyone did a fantastic job:

Video: Download here!

I also added a new Video’s section to the page! There you can find our video from last week’s raid on Goldshire. That video I didn’t get much action because of constant death from guards but, we got the job done. This Soutshore video is awesome though, I am sure you will all enjoy it. Check back tomorrow for the upload.

Kara Canceled This Week – Raid Instead

Due to the fact that we are missing another tank and healer (we don’t want to pug it obviously), Kara will be canceled until those spots are filled. So if you know a prot warrior and holy priest, they pretty much have a guaranteed spot in Karazhan Group 1!

Instead, we will be raiding at the same time (Sunday, 3:00PM server). Please view your ingame MOTD for the location. The raid will be the same as usual, 30-45 mins. Our target this week is the same, all trainers, vendors, and any flagged nubbians.

Goldshire: Eliminated

This weeks raid was scheduled for Goldshire. We got rolling around 3:15PM server, and picked up a couple people a long the way. We stayed for about half an hour, but the unexpected, fierce spawn time of the guards was underestimated. Never the less, we did manage to take down all the trainers and a few 70’s in the process.

If you would like to see the video, feel free to email me for the URL. I would post it here but it is currently on my friend’s FTP and don’t want the bandwidth wasted (80 meg video). I would post it on YouTube or some crap like that but, the sheer small size really hammers on the quality of the video. I encode at about 5 times that size.

There may or may not be a raid next week, depending on if we fill this Kara run. Signups are still being taken. See the post below.

Karazhan is set!

Karazhan @ 3:00PM Server – Saturday, September 1st, 2007. The follow people have signed up:

Nekronn – DPS (Rogue)
Archeron – DPS (Mage/CC)
Tunhgoud – DPS (Warlock)
Knyves – DPS (Rogue)
Vonce – DPS (Hunter/CC)
Bloodwater – DPS (Warrior)

DPS Slots Available: 0

Tank Spots Available: 2

Hatii – Healer (Priest)
Healer Spots Available: 1

Alright guys, here it is. Our first sign up-able event, and our first Kara run.

We need 2 priests, 2 tanks, and 6 DPS. Basically we have this in group 1, but you still need to sign up. If you don’t, then you ain’t comin’!

I would like the characters name, and the class.
That’s pretty much it, now for the rules.

Show up prepared. z0mg.

1) Bring your own Pots, Elixirs, Bandages, Food/Water. I have some in the guild bank, and by that I mean some.
2) Show up FULLY repaired.
3) Show up on time. This means, if the raid is at 3:00PM server, you should be waiting outside Kara at 2:45. Do not expect to be summoned, my last guild took people 30+ mins to start the raid, this isn’t good. Show up on time, or I will replace you with someone who took the time to show.
4) Have ALL the required mods, Big Wigs, KTM, and VENT so you can listen to my raid leading. It’s obvious to us when you don’t have the mods.
5) No useless wipes, this is it guys, I’m serious about that (serious business).
6) Have fun, and don’t mind me spazzing because I’m used to not wiping on the first boss.

The only real suggestion I can give to you to prepare yourself for this, is go to youtube, search Attunemen. Watch the video a few times. Go to wowhead.com, and search the same thing and learn the break downs of the fight. The more info you have, the more epics that will flow, and c’mon, even I like epics.

- Nekronn

Okay, now some from me.

You can sign up for this Kara run via the Calendar tab, Recruitment tab, or this post. All of it goes to my mailbox and I will post your name when I receive it.

Karazhan: Group 1

We now have our first Karazhan group ready to go. Only downside? Our main tank leaves for vacation in a week. And since Sunday is raid day, this poses a problem. So for now, our first run for group 1 is on hold. The date is to be announced when we get everything planned.

On the bright side, we purposely left two DPS spots open for guildies who are online and meet the Kara reqs. As long as you will be online for the rest of the week to run, you may have a spot!

Stay tuned…

Official Raid Day(s)

As it stands right now, Sunday will be the official day we schedule any type of raid. There may be more in the future, or even on-the-spot decision to run a raid, but other than that it’s Sunday. Not every Sunday mind you, that is just the day we will schedule things for. Usually 3:00PM server time. Nekronn and I will be setting a Karazhan Raid Date very soon. Be sure to check your MOTD or check back here for any details.

This will be a raid you must be keyed for (obviously) and signup WILL be required. If you are a no-show and we have someone to take your place from GFR, you will be replaced for that entire week (since Kara is a saved instance). So, either be there or lose 50 DKP! Jk lol. DKP is a crap system, we don’t use that by the way.

Check back soon!

- Archeron

Scheduled Raid

We will be having another scheduled raid on Sunday @ 3:00PM server. We had a nice turn out last time for our first one, I would like a better one this time. Bring who ever you want, doesn’t even matter on the level. We will need about 15 for this, just because Alliance will show up. Because we are so Epic. The location can be found in the guild MOTD. I don’t want to post it here incase we have some Alliance … watching.

After it is done I will post where we raided in the calendar, exactly like our last one.

So again, the location is in the guild MOTD, and the time is Sunday @ 3:00PM server.

- Archeron

Send me a tell ingame if you have any questions. Or a WoWMail, or an Email lol.

The Keys Are Flowing: Part 2

Congratulations to Crabbattle and Ogreeater for FINALLY getting their Karazhan keys! Just keeps getting better and better here at GFR

Now, hit it like you mean it! More DPS.

I’d also like to welcome all of our new members. I look forward to meeting all of you soon!

- Archeron

The Keys Are Flowing

Keys, more keys! Today we achieved the following:

Warblow: Karazhan Frag 1 and 2
Vonce: Heroic Caverns of Time, Heroic Coilfang Reservoir
Archeron: Heroic Caverns of Time, Heroic Tempest Keep

And last week 3 of our members received their Karazhan keys. Good work everyone!

- Archeron

Ready to go!

The website is now ready to go. It is very basic, but to the point. And the most important thing is that we have a calendar with the ability for people to signup for things, and apply for the guild.

Check back often as I am sure Nekronn will have me edit 90% of what I have done. lol.

- Archeron

Recruitment

I have added a recruitment tab to the website, aswell as a widget for what we are currently looking for. As the widget states, just because your class is not on the list, does not mean you can’t apply, and it does not mean we will reject you based on your class/spec. So please take the time to apply!

- Archeron

Getting attuned and keyed…

Currently we are working hard to get all of our level 70’s attuned and keyed for Karazhan. Today was a great day where 3 of our members got their First, Second, and Third stage keys. This is a great start to our brand new guild!

Now, come back later and I’ll have more content…
