Podcast 14: The Anatomy Of A High End Raiding Guild

March 14, 2010

First off this week we talk about our own Lich King kill!

Then we have an absolutely fantastic interview with Skroesec from Tyranny from the Drak’Tharon server, and we get an inside look at the inner workings of a high end raiding guild, one that’s been raiding at a very high level for literally years.  We talk about their entire process for tackling new content, from testing on the PTR all the way to killing a new boss for the first time.  We talk about their craziest kills, all of the important questions and not so important ones, all the way down to “Do you yell at people on vent?”.  DON’T miss this interview.

Then we hit the news, and THEN Turdhat’s contest pic is revealed and the winner is chosen!  After that we tackle our discussion topic, and mention our video of the week.

OUR WEEK

We kill the Lich King!  We talk all about our kill, and we go in-depth into our experiences with this LONG LONG fight.

Deluxa and Turdhat get hacked!

Deluxa authenticates and can’t find the app on his phone mid raid, and button-pushes (We love you Deluxa)

INTERVIEW

Skroesec from Tyranny with GREAT insight into all things high end raiding.  We pull back the curtain and take a look at how they do things.  They also offer tons of video content at their site, along with some really funny stuff.

They raid Sun-Thurs 8pm EST to midnight.  Go take a look over there and if you think you would be a good fit, see if you have what it takes.

They stream much of their farm content and some of their progression content, so again, go take a look over there.  http://anarchy-guild.org

Our thanks again to Skroesec, we hope to have him back in the future.
