Lions and Tigers and Bears.. Oh My!

We're in ZA. Yay! Kind of. For all the good luck our core group had in our initial runs of Kara, we're getting our comeuppance from the Dragonhawk boss of ZA. Well let's back up.

The guild's first run went maybe as well as can be expected. I was unable to attend so I don't know much about it but they downed bear, eagle and dragonhawk bosses. I think they ended there due to the late hour. They didn't return to try and finish. Week two brought our first full clear. I was in attendance to see the bear, eagle, dragonhawk, lynx bosses go down as well as the penultimate boss, the five man fight the first night. We downed Zul'jin the following nights on our fourth or fifth attempt. Good job CN! Week two gave us much difficulty, which they didn't have in week one, with the dragon hawk boss. Week three was even worse. Learning curves aren't supposed to work this way. Jezzabel and I were in charge of the hatched dragonhawks. The first four to six resets were from the spawns not going as planned. By then I had a little better idea of how fast he hatches them. The next several resets were due to "bad luck". Something in each just didn't go as planned. The fight for us so far seems really touch and go. The littlest things send us reeling and then we reset. It's very frustrating. The continuation is tonight, but I'll be unable to attend. I've spent the last few nights gaming so I should take some nights off. We'll see.
