This Saturday, June 24th, grouping at 8:30pm EST, we are hosting a PvP duels bracket tournament. First place gets a choice between 2 prizes, second gets whichever the first place winner passes on.
Prizes will be either a store mount or a wow token of gold.
While the tournament is underway we will also have a side section for people to get the PvP-dueler achievements.
A spreadsheet for sign ups is linked on our Discord. If you plan to participate, sign up on the spread sheet so we can pre-build the brackets.
Hope to see many of you there for an evening of fun and mayhem!
Ministry of Defense is now 1/9 mythic, and we’ve never progressed this fast before. Normally it takes us around 2 months to get our first mythic kill. This took us 4 weeks total, with 11 pulls over 2 nights, which is the fastest we’ve ever gotten a Mythic boss down. Great job team! We’re well on our way to meeting our new goals! We were 3rd to kill Sarkareth on heroic, but we’re currently #2 on the realm for mythic progression. With renewed vigor from the Alliance in Dragonflight, we’re sure to have to work hard to keep our spot on the Aerie Peak leaderboard.
The Ministry of Defense mythic raid team just got this tier’s AOTC kill on heroic Sarkareth! It’s the fastest our guild has ever gotten AOTC before! Congrats to the raiders and the raid leaders!
From Hoss:
Do you enjoy playing World of Warcraft and getting mounts, toys, etc?
We have just what you need! We are starting the MoD Funday event again at a new day and time!
On Saturday, May 27th we will be doing the ‘For the Horde’ achievement by slaying the alliance leaders for their achievements and mount!
We have run this event in the past to great success and any who wishes to attend is welcome!
So please come join us for an evening of laughs, battle shouts, mayhem and all-around fun.
Grouping for this Saturday’s Funday event will start at 8:30 pm est, and start time will be 9:00 pm est. The Saturday Funday event will be held on the 2nd and 4th Saturdays of each month with a different in-game activity and focus.
Hope to see you there this week!
From the desk of Huge & Sparkles LLC:
Hey team! A very impressive first two weeks as we find our footing in Aberrus! Some highlights include
- Full Normal Vault slots week 1!
- Earliest ever team heroic kills week 2!
- One Mystic (Mage/Hunter/Druid) Tier Token dropped!
- And many more!
Kidding aside, it’s been a fun start and we just wanted to drop some notes about our plans for the next few weeks so you can chart out your gameplay including mid-week homework and other hobbies, etc.
PvP
After a rough start on reset day, the PvP team picked up momentum on Sunday and recovered amazingly with a 5 win, 5 loss record for the first week. The team is close to 1k rating already and is well on their way to 1600! With a start like this they could all hit 1800 before the season’s end.
Mythic Raid
The Mythic raid team hit it out of the park this week, with their fastest tier start ever. They killed 8 normal bosses on Thursday, 7 heroic bosses on Friday, and swung back around to finish off Sarkareth in under 20 minutes on Monday, for a first-week total of 9/9 normal and 7/9 heroic. They also ran a combined 616 dungeons this week, with all but 1 teammate (Zex, who was travelling) getting a dungeon over 16 in for the weekly box. Do we smell a week 2 or 3 AOTC?
Heroic Raid
The Weekend Warriors had a wonderful start as well. They downed 7 bosses on normal, which blows their last season’s first-day prog out of the water . It is also no small feat with all the new faces and missing one of their two raid leads for the first night (we miss you, Huge!). Maybe we’ll see an unprecedented Sarkareth kill in week 2 or 3!
