    We did our first full guild run in Naxx 10-man last night and had great success! (Due to the holidays, busy work/school schedules, and other real-life commitments, we're always had to pug a few spots in the past...with mixed results...)

    Despite having some people who've never seen the fights before we 1-shot Anub-Rhekan, Grand Widow Faerlina, Maexxna, Razuvious, Gothik, Noth, Loatheb, and, yes, even successfully did the "Safety Dance" on Heigan. Only the Four Horseman caused a hiccup but once we shifted some people around and everyone got the hang of it we finished them off on the 3rd try. As CO I have to say that seeing the wing completion achievements spam our guild chat after Maexxna, Loatheb, and the Four Horsemen was really gratifying.

    For good measure, we went spanked Patchwerk in 1 shot to kick start the Construct Quarter. :D

    Thanks to our raid leaders for organizing and to everyone for showing up really well prepared and helping each other out! Everyone knows their classes, listened well, and played smart, and that's why we were able to roll so easily. I couldn't be prouder of this group!

    Now to finish off the Construct Quarter, Sapphiron, and Kel'Thuzad! :D

    Well we've been taking our time to level and get some gear before raiding, and we're still doing 10s while you guys are doing 25s, so I think you're safe with keeping the "hardcore" tag for now. ;) However, just because we're more casual about our progression doesn't mean we can't be damned good at raiding when we do raid. :D

    Yep, casual <> crappy. Just... slower. :p

    Good job to everyone especially Rev for explaining the fights well (it was my first time in Naxx and even though i read up on the first two quarters, it didn't always make sense until I got there.) We really felt like a well-oiled machine out there and we're only going to get better at it!
