Ensidia vs Arthas
I guess given the amount of noise out there that I could add to the cpu cycles being burnt on this subject. So Ensidia killed Arthas using a bug in the encounter on 25 man, certain items which do siege damage were causing the platform to rebuild. This is how they got their kill and…

ICC25 update
Wednesday night is raiding night since some shuffling happened a few months ago, it’s been working out better than Sunday raids. Last night was particularly good. Marrowgar, one shot Deathwhisper, two shot Boat, one shot (still the best encounter by far on the ‘fun’ scale) Deathbringer, four attempts I think. With enough time left to…
