Patience... the final frontier...
These are the voyages of the Starship Tyranny. It's 270 pull (note: not attempt) mission, to slay Spirit Kings 25 Heroic with Subetai spawning second.To seek out randomly freakishly bad things happening, like Qiang Annihilating on the opposite side of the graphic, and creative new Raid Leader sourced recriminations. .
To boldly go where no one sane has gone before.

Okay seriously... fuck this. Spirit Kings 25 Heroic. We pulled this motherfucker like 270 times, and nine times out of ten we reset him because Subetai wasn't second. Really. I think we maybe had about 30 to 35 actual attempts on the boss. You know... the completely normal amount for a Heroic Boss. But our luck was shit. And our shit luck brought the guild en masse closer to a psycotic episode. Want to know how it went? Basically like this:
Countdown... pull... Meng... reset!
Countdown... pull... Zian... reset!
Countdown... pull... Zian... reset!
Countdown... pull... Meng... reset!
Countdown... pull... Meng... reset!
Countdown... pull... Meng... reset!
Countdown... pull... Zian... reset!
Countdown... pull... Subetai... OMG don't fuck it up!
But lucky number 270 came around, something completely fucking horrible didn't happen and some truly excellent play knocked this fight over. We went home 4/16 Heroic.
Special thanks to Sufferings for keeping us sane by illustrating the potency of his precognitive powers. Also some absolutely awesome raid leading (along with Arij!).
Special thanks to the rest of Team Tyranny for not committing a homicide in the middle of progression.
Amazing fight ruined by the randomness of the pull.
