A week late, par for the course. Here's our opening ICC newspost.
ICC opened last week after great anticipation and longing to be rid of the worst raid instance Blizzard has ever done, ToGC. Sadly, Death's Choice and other good 258 drops will keep us running this for a while. Plus it would be nice to finish the instance.
ToGC has been one of those raids. You know the ones. The ones where it feels like fate is against you, and every step forward brings you two steps back. Not since the guild grinder that was Sunwell have we had as many setbacks. And ToGC itself bears much of the blame. I could go on for another seven paragraphs about how much that instance resembled dog leavings, but that's not the purpose of this post.
So last week we were finally able to step our eager feet inside the gates of Icecrown. I could hardly believe how much I missed raid trash.
There's not much to write about the instance so far. It's been a good change of pace and the fights are all fun so far but it has yet to pose any challenge on normal. The first wing went down with little effort on opening day. Sorry no pictures atm, there's not much point until Arthas and Hard modes open.
So that's my brief news post. Stay tuned for more ICC fun in another 3 weeks when they open wing #2.
