After years of playing this game, countless hours wiping, we have finally beat the game. Well, the 10 man version of it anyway.

The road to victory is paved with the bones of wipes!

Great job to everyone. We executed this to perfection!!

I'm immensely proud to be part of the Funk right now!

PWF!!

SAY WHAT??

Probably even more surprising than us downing Professor Putricide for the first time, I actually posted the news mid raid during Lem's pre fight explanation for the Blood Queen.

Way to go guys! Our execution the last time was perfect!

TARGET ACQUIRED

Countless hours have been played leading to this. The Lich King is at hand. Finally, the biggest WoW boss we've been waiting to see (and kill) is before us.

We've got a guild goal of beating him before Summer hits. Let's focus and get him down before the expansion.

PWF!!

FINALLY...a slew of GUILD FIRSTS

After 80+ attempts (for me) Sindragosa finally went down. Lem's team also took her down a couple of days after.

The Blood Princes are the last 25 man boss we've killed. Left still are Putricide, Blood Queen, Dreamwalker, Sindragosa, and Arthas.

After struggling on the "twins" for so long in the 10 man version, we killed Festergut and Rotface back to back with minimal (if any) wipes.

Twilight fans rejoice! A Vampire fight!

GUILD FIRST: Blood Prince Council...DEAD.

Tonight, Shaylar, Klegg, Arv, Terabelle, Lemuela, Aerospeed, Searges, Gadianton, Coco and myself met the Blood Prince Council. Unfortunately for them, they refused to join us in our quest to kill Arthas, so they all had to be put down.

Grats guys! This is definitely a fight where the onus is on the non-tanks to win the fight, as all i did was hit my boss in one part of the room while everyone else was running around doing something.

Valithria Dreamwalker Saved! GUILD FIRST!

Last night Shaylar, Cannonbaul, Lemuela, Overgeared, Ravenspirit, Aerospeed, Klegg, Prox, Searges and myself finally....FINALLY...saved Valithria Dreamwalker.

"The road to victory is paved with the bones of wipes."

It would have been understandable if we called it a night early yesterday. We must have wiped on this fight 10 times, but everyone showed the enthusiasm and willingness to push on! We knew we had it, we just had to iron out the bugs.

This is a moment that I hope we look at not as a victory for just the people that were in that raid, but a victory for the guild as a whole. Our strategy last night was one built off of numerous attempts from raids run by Messiahs and Omi. It took a tremendous amount of communication, perseverance, and maybe even a little luck, but we effing pulled it together.

Grats to everyone! Again, its the cumulative experience that helped us beat this fight. Everyone should be proud.

PWF!!

MORE GUILD FIRSTS!

After weeks of attempts, we finally got Deathbringer Saurfang down in our 25 man raid. This was especially hectic toward the end when his health kept ping ponging from 3%-8% before we finally stayed alive long enough to drop him. Grats to all!

PWF!!!

Other guild firsts:

Professor Putricide

Led by Messiahs, Bemoth, Katuu, Overgeared, Zivalice, Klegg, Gadianton, Cannonbaul, Shaylar, and Kelatara brought down the Professor and his irritating voice and cleared out the Plague wing.

Rotface!

Again led by Messiahs, Tryandkillme (Bemoth), Arv, Klegg, Searges, Overgeared, Cannonbaul, Nadai, Shaylar and Raynier finally brought down our long time nemesis, Rotface. Rest in hell you bastard!

MORE GUILD FIRSTS: Gunship Battle 25 & Festergut 10

Probably the easiest but most fun fight in ICC so far, PWF shot the Orgimm's Hammer out of the sky for a guild first kill on January 9.

On January 11, one of our 10 mans hunted down and ruthlessly slaughtered Festergut and his dog Stinky.

Great teamwork guys!

PWF!!

Get a load of this...

Prox appears on the loading screen of WoW right now as his priest Coco. How do we know it's our Prox, you say? In all of WoW, there are only two human female priests named Coco. The other one is level 60 on Greymane.

It's him.

Unbelievable!

Some lucky bastards win lottery tickets. Prox gets the honor of showing up on a Blizzard loading screen! Lucky dog!!

GUILD FIRSTS: Lord Marrowgar & Lady Deathwhisper 25

Last night we had our best showing in a while for a 25 man raid. After refining our tactics (and steeling our nerves) we downed both Marrowgar and Lady Deathwhisper for the first time.

It was a great example of what we can accomplish when everyone does their jobs and plays together.

Nice work, PWF!
