Firelands : Day One

Yesternite, my raid team, Flaming Legion, went into the new raid for Patch 4.2, Firelands.  Holy mother of GAWD, there is nothing but trash trash TRASH all over.  I think I see why it's called RAGE of the Firelands.  It pretty much just feels like one giant questing zone with no definitive path to the bosses.  After we spent nearly an hour clearing the amount of trash we needed to get the first boss we were gonna attempt, Shannox, to spawn, then it was wipefest.

The fight itself is actually not hard.  It is however, another DPS check.  Despite our group being able to pull sick numbers, Shannox just kinda laughed and shrugged everything off.  We consistently got him to 20% and then just fell short.  I think most everyone, like myself was pretty disheartened.  Oh well, we'll always have next week.  Until then though, I posted this little comic I created on my guild site to try and lighten the mood of my team.  Hopefully it works.
