When ASUS invited us to Dreamhack Summer, I was super excited (as always I guess). I, arx, Lazei, and Maeil had attended Dreamhack Winter 2009 last year, and the whole event really had made a huge impact on us. Knowing how awesome it was last time, I was really looking forward to travel to Jönköping again to meet old and new people and enjoy the biggest computer festival in the world.

How to: Lich King 25-man Hard Mode Spirit soak tactic
These are the tactics that Paragon used on their first Lich King kill 26.3.2010. That week we had the 5% increased healing/health/damage buff active. Patch 3.3.3 had come out on previous Wednesday. The patch provided dps buffs to some classes (like frost death knight and moonkin) as well as it buffed priest shields and gave the 5% damage bonus to pets.
Basic stats on the encounter:
Lich King: 103,9M hitpoints (dies at 10%)
Val’kyr Shadowguards: 3M hitpoints

The Lich King (25) Heroic Mode killed
EDIT: There have been some rumors floating around how we ignored Infest by canceling and rebuffing hp buffs. This, and rumors of other exploits, are simply false, as you'll be able to see from the upcoming video.
The Lich King is now dead in 25-man. Getting the kill took us more than 170 tries, and today we were left with 20/35 tries.

The Hard Mode Race - Icecrown Citadel
It has now been over a month since our first normal-mode Lich King 25-player kill and more than 4 weeks from the beginning of the hard-mode race. Most of the information in this article is somewhat old, but we felt like we wanted to talk about what happened exactly in Icecrown Citadel especially on our first reset there. The following article will feature a lot of personal opinions.

Crushing Myths
Who are the Mythbusters? Adam Savage and Jamie Hyneman - between them they have over 30 years of special effects experience. And we also didn’t get them to do an episode. We tried to pool money together for hiring them, but 7,20€ and 400,000 Zimbabwean dollars weren’t enough for the greedy bastards.

Fall of the Lich King (Normal Mode)
Wednesday: somewhere around 11pm (GMT +2)
I woke up probably at the same second Arthas died for the first time in 10-man. Some of our members had stayed up and watched various streams from Sindragosa and Arthas to be prepared better for the next day. The best Sindragosa attempt I personally saw was somewhere around 10%.

Paragons Assembly Winter 2010 Journal
Now it’s finally time to publish Paragon’s Assembly journal. I’m really sorry it’s already Saturday and Assembly has been over for almost one week already. I defend myself saying that I’ve had the usual Assembly hangover (too little sleep) which has lasted a few days more than the previous years. I’ve mended the hangover by taking a 8 hours long shower reading a thriller (true story – and just so you know I don’t keep the water running much at all, it’s more of a steam shower!). I also spent another day doing basically nothing and sleeping a bit.
