The latest patch 5.4 newsEnsidia gets world first 25-man Algalon kill

Ensidia got the world-first kill of 10-man Algalon a bit over two weeks ago. They say the 25-man version is "not an easy fight," "highly gear dependent," and "a significant difficulty increase over the 10 man version." Apparently last week they got him to 4%, only 1% over the threshold to beat him (he gives up, like Mal'Ganis in Culling of Stratholme). That must be frustrating as heck.
Well, congratulations to Ensidia, once again! I wonder what they'll be doing until patch 3.2 comes out.

Grind rep with the Tuskar? You get a sweet fishing pool :D

And a pole to fish with too!

it would be so neat to have a special fishing area only for people exalted with the Tuskarr (their hidden fishing grounds as it were)
so many people would L2F

"I wonder what they'll be doing until patch 3.2 comes out."
They'll be doing 3 important things:
1. Kill Yogg on 25 Hard mode with no watchers and 10 man Alagon (The achievement with gear under I-226 [Unless this has been already.] )
2. And farming for the rest of their guild and possibly finishing up every other achievement in Ulduar and/or other dungeon.
3. Get ready for Argent Tourney combat content (Whatever the 5, 10, and 25-man content will be shown)
This is just my view what they could be doing and in the order of importance.
Thank you for the update Eliah.

i dont know anything about this fight. Is there some mechanic, that kungen would actually use the warglaive during the fight? or did he just throw that on for the screen-shot?

I believe he's showing off his "e-peen."

To clarify something (that WoW.com has posted twice or more), you do not need every hard mode done to access Algalon, you need Iron Council with either Steelbreaker or Molgeim last, followed by the four keepers hard modes.

Big deal..They are paid to play the game. Its like the Steelers playing in a highschool league. Ofcourse they are going to beat it..

Can anyone who claims Ensidia gets paid to play to actually prove it? And I mean getting a salary, not a sponorship mouse and headphones. I'm pretty sure their website actually trashed this nonsense rumour.
Anyone, anyone, Bueller?

Can we get an apology from all the people who said in the past that Ensidia aren't actually good, they only get world firsts because they raid more hours than anyone else, and that Algalon's "one hour a week" lockout would prove who the REAL best raiding guild was?
I thought not.

@Replex - ok but the point still stands, whichever data source we use.
@Nerdagain - surely as (i presume) an American you're not arguing against No Taxation without Representation?
and @ rosencratz - I think your point is the most fair, until you got all huggy (your words not mine) but then I also think that simply creating a single english language forum that everyone can contribute to would go a long way to providing fair and impartial representation.
What do I want exactly? Well GC clearly listens to and reacts to feeback on the US forums, we pay the same fee, I'd like the same access.

As far as I know, they still have one hardmode left, no lights in the darkness. Yogg with 0 keepers.
Granted that will probobly fall this week.
