Welcome
Bloodforged is an Alliance-side World of Warcraft guild on the Thorium Brotherhood realm. We are a diverse, stable, and tight-knit community of adults who also enjoy end-game raiding content. Our members are a coalition of players from all walks of life and all stages of the game. We are young and old, starting or ending our careers. But we are all a team, and we take pride on our teamwork, and enjoy finding ways to improve it. We enjoy accomplishing the impossible, and enjoy the sense of community that comes from overcoming shared difficulties. We are forged in the blood of our enemies, the blood from defeats, and the blood of our kinship. We are Bloodforged.

We are currently working on Icecrown Citadel.

Recruitment is currently open for the following classes: DPS Death Knight, Rogue, Elemental and Restoration Shaman and Holy Paladin. All other DPS classes will also be considered. Feel free to apply even if you aren't one of the classes mentioned, we may decide you are still a good fit.
Reoriginate This! Bloodforged Saves The World... of Warcraft
Although it wasn't scheduled and I actually said we probably weren't doing it, we decided that on Saturday, due to a not very good raiding turnout, to go give Algalon in Ulduar-10 some tries.  (We only had 12 available to raid!)  He is considered a hard-mode only boss and Blizzard has said that Algalon feeds on your tears. 

We defeated him within the hour time limit.  We are the third alliance guild on the server to defeat him, and the fifth guild overall.  It is still rather impressive on this server, even if it is months old.  (And we weren't exactly rushing to get any server firsts on him and I think this was the third time we have tried.  The second time we tried we didn't really bring a well-balanced raid to it.)  I think he is farmable, and we can get more people their Starcaller titles at some point.  It is a rare title still, even if the fight is not as demanding as it once was.  Not to say it isn't demanding, there is still a ton of damage output on the entire raid (especially on the tanks) and there is an hour time limit.  Our DPS is so high now we only had to deal with 2 Big Bangs (almost one) so that is helpful, but our DPS is so high that we were also killing too many Collapsing Stars which was causing problems.  Cauchy went slower on DPSing the stars, we tried to stay out of the Cosmic Smashes, we survived the Big Bangs, and we showed Algalon the tenacity of Azeroth.

Thanks everyone and Congratulations.  (Special thanks to Shendrathar for bowing out.)  And afterward we totally got server third Lumberjacked! (10 Player).  That's totally impressive!



And yes, that's what Giz said.

Well, We Are Bloodforged, After All.
On Tuesday, a day where we usually do not do 25-mans, we decided to try to build a 25-man raid.  We didn't have 25 at first but slowly over the course of the night we had 25 Bloodforged members in the raid.  Even without a few folks, we one-shot every boss in the Lower Spire.  After getting 25, we then cleared Frost Wing trash and defeated the mini-boss, Svalna, easily for an additional frost emblem.  It was getting late but we decided to clear Blood Wing trash and at least get some attempts on the Blood Princes.  We have never attempted them in 25-man mode.  After clearing the trash, Guran went over the fight and we assigned members to their roles.  We then realized we probably wouldn't have many attempts due to the time.  Well, at the very least, we figured we'd get some practice on the fight.

Instead, the Blood Prince Council was defeated on the first attempt ever in 25-man.  (Daine accidentally aggroing them, dying, and resetting them instantly doesn't count!) 

Congratulations!  Blood Princes one-shot!

Festergut Gutted
Last Friday, on the second attempt of the night, Bloodforged stood victorious over the corpse of Festergut in 25-man Icecrown Citadel. We got Rotface to around (or under) 20% multiple times.  He will die soon too.  Progression will continue and hopefully more bosses will drop before the Icecrown buffs come into play.  We're still making progress even against difficult bosses with somewhat lackluster attendance at times.  We'll rebuild further and eventually tear down the Frozen Throne itself.  Congratulations!

We've Gone and Made a Mess... Sorry, High Overlord Saurfang
In the picture below you can see Highlord Saurfang carrying the corpse of his son.  His son was twisted into Deathbringer Saurfang, the Lich King's most powerful Death Knight.   However, he was not more powerful than Bloodforged. (We wanted High Overlord Saurfang in the screenshot and I barely caught it in time waiting for people to get ready, sorry if it's not great.)

We started the night by killing Malygos-25 (and nearly nabbing the speedkill achievement) and then we worked on Saurfang in Icecrown Citadel (25).  We got a different achievement tonight: I've Gone and Mad a Mess, on 25-man, which I'd say is impressive!  Deathbringer just melted on our kill attempt, we had some people playing specs they weren't used to (and as such, some players were doing a lot less DPS than usual) but we managed to defeat Deathbringer Saurfang easily tonight.  But then we wiped to Stinky.  But we did manage to eventually defeat both Stinky and Precious, Rotface and Festergut's pets.  We attempted Festergut a few times to test the mechanics, but we will kill him later.

Progression continues!

Icecrown Citadel (25) Progression Continues!
Title will have to do for now; add a comment if you can think of something punny about Deathwhisper and Lootship.  We've had some rough turnouts due to the hoilidays and losing some fantastic players due to real life and other issues, but 25-man Icecrown progression continues!  We beat Marrowgar the very week Icecrown opened.  We also defeated him last week, even if we barely fielded the raid and had to ask for friends -- we did defeat him.  We have cleared everything up to and including Saurfang in Icecrown Citadel 10-man.  Tonight, with 25 Bloodforged members, we defeated Deathwhisper and the Gunship Battle!  Unfortunately, I just have a terrible screenshot of Deathwhisper.  Her corpse is that little light-blue ball.  Hopefully we'll have a Saurfang screenshot soon.

We had some issues with Marrowgar mainly due to our healing turnouts as of late, but we managed to defeat him.  He's farm status.  We defeated Deathwhisper on the second try (she was nerfed, but we really didnt try her too much before the nerf) and we easily defeated the Gunship encounter on our first try. 

Congratulations!  (Loot for last Marrowgar-25 kill as well)

On Dual ICC-10 and the receiving of Loot System points...

We should only gain points in 25-man content period, even if we could have done a 25-man instead of dual 10-mans. We cannot spend the points in 10-man, so we should not gain them.

We should only receive points from a Dual ICC-10 if we could have done a 25-man with those online instead.

The current system is fine, points given by officer discretion.

Dual ICC-10 should still give us points, but not as many as a 25-man would. (Even if we only have 20 online.)

I actually think all 10-man content, especially perhaps hard mode content, should give us points. However, we should only be able to spend these points in 25-man as loot will be more contested.

I actually think all 10-man content, especially perhaps hard mode content, should give us points. We should use the system in the 10-man as well instead of free-rolling.
