Titan-Slayers
Future Tense has reached a new high; we’ve slain a (supposed) titan. Though most of our efforts have been spent on older dungeons of late, with Scorpinar leading Podkayne, Clarkson and Kalonike through Blackrock Depths, Kaseido has stepped back into her tanking shoes to explore Ulduar and the other level 80 challenges.
Kaseido, Coffindodger, Gemenar and Antianara hear from Ulduar's archives.
It started in Ulduar’s Halls of Stone, after we fought through the ranks in the vrykul village of Brunnhildar, sowed peace between the ice giants and storm-lord Thorim and confronted a new threat in Loken. King Jokkum commanded us to enter Ulduar’s halls of stone and lightning, and so we did.
Brann Bronzebeard, intrepid but not too bright, was on hand to guide us around in exchange for us protecting him during his research. The whole encounter wrote a fascinating new chapter in our discovery of Azeroth’s past; a couple of groups have ventured into Uldaman and seen what the titans have wrought there and outside Uldum, but it’s in Northrend that clues begin to bond. As the guild has yet to step inside Ahn’Qiraj this forms our first encounter with the threat of the Old Gods, however it’s clear from Silithus that these beings are adept at corrupting whom they will.
The Halls of Lightning was our first level 80 guild run, fought with reputation-gleaning tabards for the first time, too. Loken himself put up far less of a fight than some of the constructs he has guarding him; lessons are being learned in the taunting of whole mobs, and in taming noisy damage-dealers since we managed a wipe or two.
Still, we pick ourselves up, dust ourselves off and look to the next challenge. Though sadly the main body of Ulduar is too tough a challenge for our 4-man group, we have a chance to visit various level 80 dungeons, uncover the intentions of Northrend’s various dark forces, and work our way up to trying heroics once more.
