Yeah, turned out Auchindoun wasnt such a good idea after all since so many guilds moved there making it unplayable, 10sec delay on trash was fuuuuun. Anyway, we got a free transfer again, oh what irony to get a free transfer from a server when it just had a free transfer to.

We moved to Deathwing this time and hey, its actually playable on primetime! Deathwing is our home now and this time its permanent!

A short story for the people on our new server.

Glamour is a old school hardcore pve guild that originated on the server Stormscale. Stormscale was our home until recently we discovered that lag in instances and limited tries is a bad baaaaaaaaaaaaaad combination. As soon as free transfer came up we packed our bags and off we went to the server Auchindoun. Other than fucking up our raid id because of the transfer and missing putricide, it seemed like a nice place. But more and more guilds transfered, since popular servers like Al'Akir and Ravencrest also had a free transfer there. Next reset was horrible, not only the bosses lagged, the trash lagged aswell and it officially became a server even worse than Stormscale.

A few weeks after that we got free transfer again and we took the opportunity to move to Deathwing and so far we like it since we can raid on primetime now! Wooooo!

We've moved!

Thats right, we've played on this server since the released and gone through everything on Stormscale but have now decided to find a new home. The reason is simple, even though Stormscale has always had a history of high queues and bad lag at every new content patch, we endured it but simply cant anymore. Having limited tries on bosses and at the same time risking huge lag spikes is not very ideal, we lost a kill on Putricide because 6 out of 10 attempts we had lag on three different occasions, even though we tried to raid late at night it didnt help. Not to mention that people keep transfering to Stormscale to PVE, people seriously pay money to enjoy high queues and a generally unstable server

The last 4 attempts we simply said fuck it and went all out, only to wipe at 1% because of yet another lag spike. And after trying to raid on Wednesday only to get more lag, well that was enough for us.

No more, our new home is on the server Auchindoun and that will hopefully be permanent, so all of you still keeping up with us, you know where to find us.

After a 8% wipe last time we came back and finished it.

Azjol-Nerub was merely a setback!

So we went back in there this reset, beat us through with 50 tries left, started joking about Tribute to Insanity, started crying when the mt died at 6% when we had 45 tries left, but could finally get him down with a satisfying and pretty confident kill at 41 tries left.

Not sure why this kill didn't come earlier, it feels like we always missed a key player or setup when we felt like we could kill him. In my personal opinion, im pretty happy to see that Blizzard still can tune a boss so well considering all crap they get for casualizing content, though I still dont like the fact that you have to stack specific classes to be able to do it. We're not a guild that has alot of every class, we're more comfortable with playing with the people we have.

Enough excuses though, as I mentioned we got to him with 50 tries left so im pretty confident we can get Tribute to Insanity soon. Unless Raybald looks away from his screen again when he gets Legion Flames in melee again. Then we're screwed.

And thats what we got to show for now, pretty satisfied with out progress considering that we got zero PTR experience. Time to beat up Anub'arak again!
