After about a few too many wipes and vaporizing rogues, Raid: Hamfist ONE SHOTTED Illidari Council tonight:

Council No More

Warion, who's been BT attuned for less than 24 hours, came in and did an incredible job.  Thank you!

Of course, Council is only just the beginning of a night like this. After loot, we engaged the Akama interlude and followed him upstairs:

Knock knock

He runs fast for a fat kid:

Keep up with fatty

Then we ran into this random guy... you know, the guy that always has his shirt off at social gatherings.  Douche.

OHAIILLIDAN!

So we made a few pulls.

It's on

We're deep into Phase 2 on our first night ever.  Read up on Illidan strats and prepare to come back for perfect execution this week.  Grats guys, we've almost beat The Burning Crusade. .. until 2.4 ;)
