Ok, so I guess a Hunter being the raid leader just might make a difference in what loot drops. In my first Molten Core run with Method, 5/8 of the Giantstalker set dropped, the Mature Black Dragon Sinew dropped off Onyxia and the Dragonstalker Helmet dropped off Onyxia as well… Wow… This being my first run with Method, the only items I was able to pick up were the Giantstalker's Bracers and the Mature Black Dragon Sinew. Now I just need the Ancient Petrified Leaf to drop next weekend.

So, Method runs Molten Core a little differently than Nightelf Skinning Co did. First off, they run the entire instance in one night. That was an experience in itself. I swear by the end of the night, my ass had fallen off… Other than that though, I love doing the entire thing in one night. It makes the rest of the week a lot less stressful, etc. We one shotted every boss in the place (except for Rag). We took Rag to 35% before the Sons of Flame on the first try, and then to like 8% after the Sons. On our last attempt though, we had him at 28% before the first Sons, and took him to 3% before the wipe. Let me tell you, our Ventrillo and Raid Chat was going insane. We should have him down next weekend with no problem

After Molten Core wrapped up around 12 a.m., we ran over to Onyxia and took her down on the second attempt (the first one, someone lagged while auto-run was on, and ran right into Onyxia… This sucked, but was absolutely hilarious).

So, after thinking long and hard about my current situation, I have decided to leave Nightelf Skinning Company. I have been in this guild since before I was 60, and am leaving the guild on good terms. Recent activity in the guild, and good friends of mine leaving Nesco were my main reasons for leaving. I still have good friends in the guild, and will be more than happy to help out anyone in Nesco whenever they need it.

About a week ago, I contacted Ogreshoot from Method, inquiring if they needed any Hunters. He sounded interested in allowing me to join their guild. My main reasons for joining Method, were due to the fact that a lot of my friends from Nesco had already come over to Method, and Method is also a lot farther along in MC, BWL, ZG, etc… And while loot, and instances aren’t the only things I care about in WoW, leadership is. Nesco seemed to be losing a lot of its core leadership, and seemed to be only a few more away from falling apart. It was a hard decision to leave, and I hope its one I don’t have to make again anytime soon.

Finally! I have been saving up the materials for these enchants for a couple months now (since I got both of my Bone Slicing Hatchet’s). So, yesterday, Darktemplar from Nightelf Skinning Co. enchanted both of my axes with +15 agility. I am now up to 329 agility, and hope to hit that 400 mark ASAP. I am hoping to run a couple DM Tribute runs to get 2 Tarnished Elven Ring’s and also run through UD Strat a couple times to get Cape of the Black Baron. Of course, finishing off my Giantstalker set wouldn’t hurt either.

Sorry for the lack of updates lately. Have been busy at work, and our guild is going through a little bit of a restructure at the moment. First, the loot from the 15th run of Molten Core. We made it through to Baron flawlessly, then like usual, a couple people decided to blow up in the middle of the group during Baron, and we called it a night…

Now onto the 18th run. As you can tell, we didn’t get far at all… Approximately 6 of our guild leaders have officially left the guild in search of another. Their reasons for this, I won’t go into here, as I don’t know the complete details. Truthfully, a lot of my good friends have left the guild, and I am not sure what I am going to do at this point. I have had open invites to a couple other guilds (which some of the officers are now in), but am having trouble making up my mind. When something happens, I will update here. Now onto the loot for Saturday night. I finally got another piece of Giantstalker gear. Shazzrah dropped my gloves, woot! My Allakazham profile has been updated.

Another run, another Giantstalker-less night After having trouble with Geddon on our last run, we ended up wiping on him another 4 times before getting it right. I would like to say that the OOC aspect was getting us, but that just wasn’t the case. We had people just not listening, and blowing up our entire raid after becoming the bomb. Luckily, we made it past, and got in a couple of good attempts on Majordomo before it got too late. WTB Hunter Drops…
