No, your guild is pretty much a huge joke. I love how you guys act like it's impossible to kill without the SoH Cleric Gloves, or Shaman Helm(which we had neither when we first killed it, in a much harder state than it is now since the fuck up which caused it to break/become easier), or how it's a much harder kill when you don't have any fragments on your tank.

Seriously, QQ more about gear.

Because motherfuckers, unless they're wearing your guild tag, simply do not care.

We couldn't be assed to devote more than a couple hours a night to avatars that we struggled with because we all knew that in a couple days we'd get an ezmode one with the same chance for loot..
See I actually find this kinda sad in viewing a post about raid progression. The whole point of having mobs more difficult than others is to give raid/guild of people a sense of satisfaction that they succeeded in defeating a particularily difficult encounter. Your points which indicate people just don't care to kill some harder avatars due to getting pretty much same loot off the easy ones, validates the hunch i've had for awhile now: that most raiders in this MMO only raid for loot and not for the challenge and feeling of accomplishment. I don't know about many others, but when I WAS raiding, it wasn't about the loot, that was just an added bonus. It was about striving towards a goal and accomplishing it no matter how big the hurdle was. The primary goal of any raid guild I was in, was to jump over that. It's actually been somewhat depressing watching the weeks go by and seeing that still NO other guilds have killled Tangrin or Growth.

Guess my reasons for raiding are outdated now with most raiders. :/

Welcome to the Generation of ADD, we want everything and we want it know, we don't care about the fact whether the encounter is lots of fun or not, we only care about the loot.

The first kill is for the enjoyment of defeating a hard encounter, all of the others are for loot. Most people I know get a huge rush out of beating an undefeated mob that they have spent some time on. Some mobs are dumb and fun-killing enough to make people not want to bother pulling them, though - they figure that the rush they get when they finally kill it prolly isn't worth the aggravation of the time spent, I guess!

Confirmed! And while you are coughing up crummies of my very delicious chocolate chip cookies, I will hug you and smooch you and snuggle you 'til you die!

PS. You're one mean bunny

AoJ is just Lord Nagalik. It was killed for 2 reasons. It was a fairly easy mob so why let other people kill it, and because you could kill it. AoJ isn't hard at all, in fact it is, like the other new avatars, a joke. The hardest thing about him is the fact that you can't see when Traumatic Swipe is up on the mob, and that he heals whenever you hit him.
