Sindragosa Frozen Out
The Invader Raiders spent all day Tuesday getting torn up, but last night the wyrm turned -- everyone switched targets correctly, stood in the right places, and kept it up to bring down Sindragosa finally.  And what was that, the second real day of trying ever?  A great achievement with awesome teamwork, Invaders!  She was tired of those games anyway.

Since she didn't even take us the whole time, we decided to head up to see the Lich King himself and take a few swipes at him.  We suffered her master's limitless power and despaired after a half-dozen or so tries, but not before we got him well into Phase 2 -- pretty decent for never having tried it before.  It seems doable.

Bonus drop listing:  Robes of Azure Downfall and the Rimetooth Pendant, if I recall.  Good job all!

New Officer: Moover
You may remember him as that nice fellow that helps people out and can cut whatever gem you need.  Now he's been given the power to exact his vengeance on guildmates without let or hindrance!  Good thing he's a nice guy, and everyone likes him.

Thanks for stepping up, Moover!  We really appreciate it!

Putricide Pummeled, Valithria Revived
After a preliminary clear of the lead-ups on Tuesday, the Invader Raiders went in Thursday night and summarily one-shotted Professor Putricide with grace and precision.  Then, to assure a night to remember, we proceeded after a few tries to save Valithria Dreamwalker with heals in the range of awesome.  Just for good measure we cleared out the Crimson Hall and took a swipe at Sindragosa, who we will be facing again next Thursday.

The excellence of execution and achievement were in the fine tradition of the Invaders, as was Akatsuro being killed in pretty much every boss encounter.  It was a fantastic night of progression to be proud of.  Great work all around in fights that have given us trouble in the past!

We are renewed!  Blizzard grants us the favor to lay these foul creatures to rest!

Blood Queen Splattered
After racing through the lower level and stooge-slapping the suddenly cowed Blood Princes, the Invader Raiders took their first shot at Blood Queen Lana'thel Thursday and downed her on the first night of trying.  It took just a few attempts to learn the fight, giving everyone a nice Achievement for clearing The Crimson Hall.

Props to first-bite leader Fumetsuden, who now has eternal dibs on tanking Prince Keleseth and totally deserved Muradin`s Spyglass from this run.  Great work all!  We're getting along... so well...!

Blood Princes Drained
After sweeping the Lower Spire of Icecrown Citadel and entering the Upper Spire, the Invader Raiders last night made the radical decision to go straight ahead instead of turning left.

This resulted in the guild's first downing of the Blood Prince Council with a maximum of dexterity: after a couple tries, the encounter ended with all members standing at near full health and achieving The Orb Whisperer.  Props to our DPS for keeping up the damage, our ranged for keeping up the beach balls, our tanks for keeping up the threat, and our healers for just keeping everyone up.  Were we ever a threat!
