Wednesday (31 Aug) - Cho'gall is DONE

Wednesday (31 Aug) - Cho'gall is DONE

At the prelims of the fight the two heads of Cho'gall both talk at the same time. When the tank attacks:

Head 1 - Enough!
Head 2 - To His will all flesh succumbs. From his Kingdom, chaos comes!
Head 1 - Yes - what he says.

After a practice run and a pretty good 2nd attempt, pushing into the final phase but failing at 21%:

Raider: Beam of Butt Sucking got me right up the rear! (we understand that he means Debilitating Beam, which looks like an eyeball on a stalk and shoots a slithering purple beam).

We get Cho'gall to 17% on our third attempt:

Wild: STOP Polymorphing me when I get Converted! I can't heal if I'm a penguin! (some raiders never figured out that raiders who are Converted have to be stunned or interrupted - instead, they use polymorph, which works but leaves Wild unable to heal until I can break the poly - they did it to me twice! I think it was on purpose. ;-) )

On our fourth attempt Cho'gall slipped to 7%.

Incredulous Off Tank: Are we doing Cho'gall with just two healers?
Lady Hunter: Sure. Seems to be working just fine.
Wild and Pl stare at each other and think to ourselves: He just now noticed? Then we both grin. Cool!

On our fifth attempt we took him down. As he died Cho'gall said:

Head 1 - Brother...we are shattered..
Head 2 - But the Master...I still hear...so angry...Master...

Cho'gall DEAD


Wild has now completed all of the Bastion of Twilight and all of Blackwing Descent. That leaves Throne of the Four Winds (T4W or just Thrones). Wild has defeated the encounter Conclave of the Winds, but we never attempted the second/final boss, Al'Akir, back when we were doing T4W. With an hour still left of raid time we tried to get everyone to go straight to T4W. Nothing ever happens fast in this raid, though, and after this and that and those and these we wound up calling it without going anywhere.

Wild did 11.5k hps and the pally 11.1k on that final run. No one in the DPS cracked 15k and two of the six DPSers did less than 11k dps. We did it, though. Nice to have Cho'gall down.
