Sunday was the usual tour of Dreamrift and then early Voidspire bosses, but we failed on dragons, I think we were only 10 people.

Tuesday didn’t look much better, so 10 tries on Belo’ren Heroic then called it a day after an hour.

A sad week, all in all, especially as I didn’t bonusroll my Heroic Gaze *again*.

Sunday was the usual Heroic Dreamrift, then Voidspire reclear. Had some problems on dragons, but got at least some tries in for Paladins, now at 14 wipes and 30% or so. Really hoping we’re just extending when we have them down.

Tuesday we killed the Vanguard on the 16th pull (30 overall or so) then looked at Crown of the Cosmos on Heroic. 6 wipes, not a lot of progress – but we’re 6/9 now.

This was the week where we got the Voidcores to upgrade our stuff by 10 levels – and we had a public holiday with bad weather on Thursday, so I got to grinding. First I upgraded my main’s weapon to 298, then (because I was lucky enough to bonus roll a Mythic 2h in my first +10) I did the same for my Brewmaster Monk, and then I also bonus rolled a Mythic 2h on my Blood DK, so that also went to 298. The Vengeance Demon Hunter already had one Mythic weapon from the Vault, and also bonus rolled a 2nd one (it starts to sound unrealistic), so 10 Voidcores later she’s dualwielding 298 weapons as well. I have now successfully tanked (and timed) a +10 (or higher) on 4 different tanks (Warrior, DH, DK, Monk) and at least tanked one +2 on my Paladin. Only the Druid missing (sitting at 250, should be enough for a low key). So the goal is definitely to tank at least a couple +10s on every tank class this season.

The gearing is kinda weird anyway this season. The moment I hit the “all slots to 276” achievement (aka 6/6 Heroic) on my main, I could use my saved up Hero Crests on some alts. That was late last week and now I have 5 alts at 272 and higher, nearly surpassing my main on the BDK. The Shaman has not seen a single M+ or raid higher than LFR and yet has only 1 slot missing to full 276 Heroic Gear.

On Sunday we did the current routine of Chimaerus Heroic (still 1 wipe), then March on Normal, then the first 3 in Voidspire (no wipes) and then a 2nd kill of the dragons on the sixth pull.

Tuesday people apparently didn’t want to go wiping so we did a full normal reclear of the remaining 7 bosses, boo.

In M+ we managed to get all dungeons except Windrunner Spire to 12 (and a 13 Pit of Saron), so close to resilient keys.

On Sunday it was time for Chimaerus again, first Heroic (3 wipes, ugh), then Normal. Then a quick visit to March Normal and then a reclear of the first 3 in Voidspire on Heroic. So that’s 4 for the Vault already, but now wipes on Dragons on the program for Tuesday.

The Dragons actually died, around pull 21 (7 wipes today), although we only had 10 people. Then we got some 10 tries in on Lightblinded Vanguard, none better than 76% and I messed up quite a few tank swaps. In my defense the addons seemed to show really weird timings and I had to fiddle with settings between tries.

For M+, we timed a 12 and a 13 this week after getting all 8 portals last week (on Warrior). I’ve also tanked a few 10s (and one 11) on my DH and I’ve done a couple 6-8s on my Blood DK. Season of the tank I guess.

On Sunday we cleared Chimaerus and March on Quel’Danas on Normal (1 wipe on Belo’ren), then back to Heroic Voidspire and 3 bosses died.

On Tuesday we started with Chimaerus Heroic, who died on the second pull (5 wipes overall), then we cleared Voidspire Normal with zero wipes, then tried the two dragons again on Heroic, but not a lot of progress in 5 wipes.

I’m noticing that I keep missing to write these posts but juggling 3 instances is a bit weird and progress was uncommon this time as well. We’re 4/9 Heroic now, which feels a little slow, but not terrible I guess. When the Voidspire Normal reclears stop we should have more time anyway.

On Sunday we started with Chimaerus because everyone wants that trinket, then we went back to March on Quel’danaas. We oneshot all 3 of these, then we went into Voidspire Heroic.

After a 11% wipe and a meh 0.5% wipe we downed Imperator Averzian, and Vorasius also died on the third pull. Then we were out of time and only managed two pulls on Salhadaar.. but 25% looked promising.

Tuesday saw Saladhaar die on the third pull ( overall), then 8 wipes on Vaelgor & Ezzorak and 4 wipes on Chimaerus Heroic.

Sunday started quite nicely with Chimaerus and all of the Voidspire, only one wipe on Crown, and then Belo’ren on the third pull.

Tuesday continued with Midnight Falls on the fifth pull and then we had 8 wipes on Imperator Heroic, 2 of them around 25%. Very happy with that progress.

So I was indeed made a raid tank (well, they did ask and I had offered to do it) and we went for the Voidspire first.

That Sunday we killed the first 3 on Normal and people were less upset about our progress, and then 2 more on Tuesday, but Chimaerus still proved harder than anticipated, with some low percentage wipes.

Week 3 we killed 4 on Sunday, then cleared the Voidspire on Tuesday, and had time left to kill Chimaerus – so 7 in total. So far the two dragons and Chimearus proved to be our roadblocks.

So if we ignore that first night: 1 wipe on Averzian, 3 on Vorasius (incl 1 on rekill), 0 on Saladhaar, 12 on Vaelgor (incl 5 on rekill), 8 on Paladins (incl 1 on rekill), 6 wipes on Crown, 3 wipes on Chimaerus.

Not completely happy with this, but at least we reovered.
