		<description><![CDATA[Hello again folks, we are back we another update!<br />
<br />
The first event we have for you guys this time is "Unearthing Alra" In the <em class='bbc'>Pillars of Alra</em>.<br />
<br />
This was probably one of the most COMPLEX raids we have ever had to complete.  Four towers meant we had to split our raid force four ways.  Each tower had its own challenges to overcome and required some very creative strategies to win within the ten minute time frame.  In the end however we managed to complete the towers and won the right to face <strong class='bbc'>Vsariard, the Revelation</strong>.<br />
 <br />
<p class='bbc_center'><span rel='lightbox'><img src='http://images.crimsontempest.net/2012/01/pillarsboss.jpg' alt='Posted Image' class='bbc_img' /></span></p>
<br />
The boss however, was a pushover compared to the challenge of the towers. And with that let there be loot<br />
 <br />

<br />
<br />
The next event we completed was "The Cacophony of Power" in <em class='bbc'>Windsong Sanctuary</em>.<br />
<br />
This event wasn&rsquo;t nearly as bad as the Pillars one.  After a couple of times getting completely beat down by musical instruments we figured out what had to be done to win.   Note a sound was heard from the <strong class='bbc'>Echo of Ryken</strong> as we looted his chest.<br />
 <br />

<br />
We also add a couple of Trophies  to our collection.<br />
<br />
And of course the proof if anyone requires it.<br />
 <br />

<br />
We are currently working on the City of Bronze  and then we will be on our way to the Sepulcher of Order.  We take out time and enjoy ourselves.As always we are looking for some specific classes to fill out ranks.  If you are a Necro, Bard, Paladin, Beastlord, or Bard and are interested in joining us please contact an officer about recruitment.  If you are not one of those classes and think you are awesome enough to fit in,  contact an officer as well and you may get a shot.<br />
<br />
Until next time!<br />

		<description><![CDATA[<p class='bbc_center'>Hello folks! In this update we bring you Tier 3 in all of its glory.</p>
<br />
First up we have <strong class='bbc'>"The King of Beasts"</strong>. Now the hardest part about this raid seems to be the horrible hit box the main mob has. Even that minor speed bump wasn't enough to defeat us however and the King of Beasts dropped his loots<br />
<br />
<p class='bbc_center'><br />

</p>
<br />
Next up with have <strong class='bbc'>"Time and Tides"</strong> while this raid was definitely harder than The King of Beasts but after some trial and error we found our footing and got our chest to spawn.  We all do share one opinion about this event however, and that is those small snakes that come out of the water can just go to hell!<br />
<br />
<p class='bbc_center'><br />

</p>
<br />
<br />
Finally we have <strong class='bbc'>"Two Sides of the Stone"</strong>. Now this raid had everything, for puddles of ooze that killed you to throwing yourself out of windows!  After many hours running around trying to find the right rock to cleanse us we finally pulled off a win!  We even got a bag!<br />
<br />

<br />
First up on the agenda was <strong class='bbc'>The Herald of Oratory.</strong> Due to the corpse poofing on our win I don't have a nice corpse picture for you but I do have a good screenshot of the two guys we had to set up and defend.<br />
<br />
<span rel='lightbox'><img src='http://images.crimsontempest.net/2011/11/rallos-solro.jpg' alt='Posted Image' class='bbc_img' /></span><br />

Next up we have <strong class='bbc'>The Defeat of Prexus</strong>.  Yet another event that did not seem to offer us much of a challenge, we defeated it on our first try.<br />
<br />
<span rel='lightbox'><img src='http://images.crimsontempest.net/2011/11/Shell.jpg' alt='Posted Image' class='bbc_img' /></span><br />
<br />

<br />
