I'm sorry, but this is the least impressive flex shot ever. At least leave a corpse or something, sheesh. -Suckthock

And, here's the rest of us -- we conquered a room, grats to us:


Loot included this fun toy:


World first Horsemen kill by a guild named Elitist Jerks, woo!

Anyway, not much more to be said about this fight than has already been said. Inconsistencies with the visibility of void zones aside, and raid-stacking issues aside, this is a real masterpiece of raid design. I don't think any kill has ever been more satisfying for us. Part of that is how long it was in coming -- to be honest, probably the first time in the history of our guild where we hit a wall for a bit and had to keep grinding away without any tangible progress for a time.

Huge thanks to everyone who put in the hours who made this kill possible, and huge thanks to my guildmates for not lynching me when I said "Hey guys, let's change our strat" for the fourth time. Maybe now I can finally stop dreaming of spreadsheets and daydreaming about this fight at work.

sweet group shot bro

you killed...a skeleton?

heh?

/edit

4H i take it--grats! and you did it without server transfers ;)

Where's the shot of the Corrupted Ashbringer?

Grats EJ.

First to down 4H with 4 bear tanks!

Troll flexing is superior.

Back at you.

I'll go to Stratholme for orbs tomorrow. (On an alt.)


I feel particularly proud that we killed them with eight warriors that have all been in our guild since before we killed Ragnaros. The EJ warrior family is awesome~

Grats on surmounting September's usual school slump.

As an aside, I'm grinding Tanaris turtles on an alt when lo and behold I see four EJ members stoicly and glumly fishing off the coast an hour after the 4H kill. The jokes I could make.

All I did was embellish upon existing lines I swear.




i don't know

This is worth highlighting. Not by way of making excuses or being sanctimonious, but just as a fact that I consider pretty cool, in the grand scheme of things. 38 of the 40 people in our raid tonight were active raiders a year and a half ago.

hahaha, our guild ranks pays off :)

Very impressive. I doubt anybody else can make that claim. Grats on the kill though, hope you beat Sapphiron quickly!

This is not fucking R&D! :eng101:

Gratz on the kill and the sword. That's pretty impression retention you guys have going, it's gotta be great looking back on the same people you started the game with. The only one I can say that for is my brother. o_O

This post half-tempted me to make an anonymous drama post on the R/D(with a level 1 alt of course) linking to that picture while making the claim that Rachel ninja'd it while attending our 4H raid as a trial member.

Grats guys, really impressive to still keep the same folks around :). Must be proof that you are doing something right.

Definately the most impressive thing. Most raiders, I think, would kill to have that kind of consistent base. The volumes that speaks to your raiding environment, leadership, and players is really astounding.

Congratulations EJ! :toot: GL with Frostwyrm Lair as well!

Wow, very nice work. From the perspective of a guild halfway through Naxx, I'm looking forward to this fight more than anything else in the game right now.

Congratulations. Looking forward to the next two announcements from you guys, which should come in short order with the big roadblock down, I hope.

I think it's time Beef changed the guild rank titles again. It's almost Halloween, and I miss "Witch's Tit."
