It had to happen eventually. BOTE managed to get a better-late-than-never kill on the tricksy Professor. Thankfully this means the god-awful voice actor can now resume his duties on hit animated show Futurama. Good news everyone, Blood Queen to fall next.

BOTE breaks down the BPC, has a go at BQL instead of PP, QQ’s a lot due to trash respawns and promptly says NN, cya L8R. OMG.

After a torrid, lagged out time on Wednesday night when the new wing was released, we finally managed to down both Festergut and Rotface (or was that the other way around?) on Thursday 7th Jan after not too much trouble. Furthermore, we have successfully taken 25man Prof P fight in to phase 3. Expect a kill shot atop of the crazy scientists corpse very soon. Good job BOTE, and grats to all the other guilds who have progressed similarly. As a side note, props to Alter Ego guild for getting Realm 1st Grand Crusader. Some really nice work. Race ya to Arthas!

*Note: according to a few places our claim of realm first here might not be completely valid so please take the above graphic with a pinch of salt folks I based it upon which guild posted first on the realm forums. According to WoW progress we downed DBS at the same hour and minute that Alter Ego downed the boss. Not sure how accurate this is, but great job to both guilds! Lots of fun all around. *highfive*

Edit: we have received a couple of complaints or “unsporting” comments regarding this post. Basically folks, it is true indeed that the normal mode fights thusfar are particularly easy. BOTE is under no false illusions about that, and we acknowledge that “realm first” shouts are arbitrary at this stage, but come on people it’s only a bit of fun. Don’t take it so seriously. Our suggestion to those who dislike/get irritated with us being happy and excited about venturing in to Icecrown (finally) and being amongst the front runners on the realm to push forward is pretty simple: fuck off Read This >

A lot of people are expecting 3.3 to hit this coming week, and with that in mind, BOTE is busy preparing our banks and inventories ready for the final (gated) assault against the Lich King. Since the start of patch 3.1, we have had a pretty good time ascending to the giddy heights of being amongts the top guilds on the realm, and even occupying Realm 1st slot for quite some time. We lost that crown recently to a well deserved kill of Anub’Arak hardmode by another guild, but otherwise we are fairly satisfied with how things are at the moment, and we are looking forward to pushing on in to Icecrown Citadel, and bringing some serious BOTE-style bitch slapping to the main man (pictured above). Watch this space for kill videos and team-photos as and when 3.3 hits live servers in the EU and we begin our fight. Onwards Elders!

Not that it matters too much, but BOTE grabbed a Realm 1st kill of Anub’ Arak last night with a rather splendid oneshot. Expected of course, but still nice to see nonetheless. Thanks to Lyianne for the vid.
