New Shield

Last night was quite productive for the guild and myself. We managed to take down the first three bosses in AQ20, with new people who have not been there before. I personally benefited very well from the run because of the drop off Buru. I posted a few screenshots below of my newest stats and what the shield looks like. The shield has a rather unique design, but looks very cool.



As for the guild itself, I am rather impressed with our accomplishments lately. I must admit that we have some people who are displeased with our progress or may not like the DKP system, but I hope it will all work out in the end. You always have to expect problems and you cannot please everyone, but as we start settling into a routine, I believe people will have less issues with everything. I just hope the officers can hold out that long :P

Current Status

I figure it would be helpful to bring any readers up to speed on the current status of our characters.

Guild

Our guild has been going up and down over the last few months. We keep merging with other guilds in hopes of creating a strong raiding guild, but alas, we just end up losing people and reverting to where we started. However, our latest merger with Jagged Legion has yielded some promising results. We typically have 20+ online and can generally pull together at least 30 people for our Molten Core runs. Still, as with all mergers, not everyone is content with the guild or the game and stops playing.

Unfortunately, the guild has become heavily reliant upon Zarina and myself since she is one of the primary healers and I am the main tank for the guild. We took a break from the game for about a week and a half due to moving, and the guild could not accomplish much of anything. Poor turnouts seemed to be the primary cause of the problems. However, once we returned to the game, the next Molten Core run saw our highest attendance ever with 35 people and we managed to kill the first 6 bosses, almost all on our first try. Assuming we have a similar turnout, I bet we will finish off Sulfuron and Golemagg on our next raid.

The people in the guild are friendly and I thoroughly enjoy playing with them. I can feel that some people are becoming annoyed with the guild's problems and I hope they stick it out. I know the guild will do very well in end game if we just get a few more people and put in our best efforts.

Server

As with most servers, Cho'gall has some problems as well. The primary one being a low population. The server was created about a year after WoW's release and as you would expect, it was affect by "reroll" syndrome when new servers were released. So, the server started out with a very high population, long queues, and after a few months we lost the vast majority of players.

In recent months, many players have been complaining to Blizzard about population problems and why they continue to open up new servers. We have been lucky to receive some blue responses mentioning the possibility of server transfers. So, I guess time will tell the fate of our server. Personally, I do not think the population is as bad as people make it sound, but we could certainly use some new faces.

Character

As for my character, I have collected some of the best tanking gear that you can get before entering MC, BWL, ect. I also have been lucky to receive pieces from the might set as a result of our MC runs. The guild tends to give me all the tanking equipment first since I basically main tank every instance that we run. Though, hopefully, this reliance on me for tanking will diminish some as time goes on. I am also working on collecting fire resistance gear for tanking MC and a DPS set just for fun (not that I can DPS well as a protection warrior :P).

Conclusion

Anyways, that is a brief rundown of where I currently am in the game. I hope to see more of the end game instances with my guild in the near future.

New pic

Here's a picture of Zarina, in Orgrimmar where I frequently hang out and chat with guildies:P

Newest Look

Pictures are always good, so here is a screenshot of my character in Orgrimmar.

Zarina's Profile

Grand Opening

FIRST!

Anyways, we have created this blog as a way to showcase our gaming experiences. Currently we are involved in a guild known as "Continuum" in the online game World of Warcraft. We play on the Cho'Gall server under the names Zenos and Zarina, hence the blog's title.

This blog will contain updates regarding our characters, the guilds progress, and whatever else we feel like when we have the time. Oh, and do not forget the pictures, plan on seeing quite a few of those.
