Gruul down

Gruul is dead! As of around 11 last night Darkfall killed Gruul.

We had about 5 or 6 pugged in people, but it was mostly guild. Our last attempt both tanks were dead by about 5%. But the dps and healers who were still up kept pounding on him. I swear that was the longest ever 5% of a boss. We ended the fight with only a priest and Kuanchichi still up. (Yay for shamans who can pop and know when to do so!)

Hopefully we can get him down again next week. It was such a slap-dash kill. We are getting better at the trash on the way to him, which meant this time that we were able to get in a couple of extra tries before respawn and we cleared it twice so we had more attempts. Also we one-shotted Maulgar for the second week in a row.

Aren't we supposed to go to Magtheridon first? I admit that as goofy as it looks I do actually want the t4 chest.

You used to be required to do Magtheridon first, since he's part of the attunement for SSC. But now there's no attunement.

People I know who actually raid have been jumping to SSC because the first boss(es) are easier than Mag, and then going back to try Mag when they have a little more gear, so they have a little more leeway on the strategy / coordination required for Mags.
