Woot! Server first for 25man kill of Halion, the new boss in Ruby Sanctum. Would we be able to do it in heroic server first next week?

The trash from that place is epic, you actually need to have a strategy to kill them. We used three tanks to separate the mobs, and I was on interrupt duty for the blast. We wiped more times on trash than the mini-bosses and even the boss! Mini-bosses were quick kills and they're fun to do. Halion took 3 attempts to down, definitely third time's a charm :)

I like the new place--the forest feel and when you look up, stars and swirly galaxies decorate the twilight purple skies. Even though it's just a one-boss raid instance, it was refreshing to see something new other than ICC.

The night it did drop though, I called it :) Jesse had been running with me all 40x runs, and that night, I told him I had a feeling it's gonna drop. Lo and behold, it did! :)

That took forever to farm, but it was fun getting it. Funny how we developed a system of clearing that place--it's almost like we do the exact same thing each run. We must've seen all the drops too. Oh yea..maybe we should go back and do the heroic mode everyday for the mount. Wonder how long that'll take :P
