Mythic Cauldron of Carnage Down

Mythic cauldron of carnage boss downed

Terrible two-some Flarendo & Torq of Cauldron of Carnage mythic raid tier have been defeated by the Olympians team. This boss took 58 pulls over 4 weeks of progression. The team has done a good job of getting heroic tier raid and myth tier Vexie on farm status over that time, combined with gear from vaults and keys for an average item level of 669.2.

One of the more challenging aspects of this boss was dealing with the add crowd control on Torq as well as laser placement on Flarendo. As is typical for mythic raid tier, the meta challenge of keeping the 20-person team balanced and staffed is sometimes greater than the bosses and mechanics themselves. The Last Prophecy continues to recruit to flesh out a bench as needed. Guild members Galatea and Tizdee have recently been promoted to officer rank to take on these recruiting responsibilities.

With Cauldron of Carnage down, the team sets eyes on mythic Rik Reverb as well as a fun achievement run in normal.

Heroic Gallywix Has Fallen to Olympians

Overweight crime boss and notorious bare-chested fashionista, Chrome King Gallywix, has fallen to The Last Prophecy’s Mythic raid team, Olympians. With this kill, Olympians have secured the achievement of Ahead of the Curve for the guild.

The team was comprised of 2 tanks, 5 healers and 13 damage dealer players. Gallywix fell 9 weeks after the launch of the Liberation of Undermine raid on April 24th, 2025, after 59 pulls. The gods blessed us this day with a fine Jastor Diamond in addition to this glorious victory.

The team is looking forward to continuing to progress on to mythic tier with this accomplishment secured. After all, time is money friends!

Team Roster:

Four Weeks In, Our First Mythic Kill

TWW Season 2 kicked off on March 4th and exactly 1 month in TLP’s Olympians kill Mythic Vexie & Geargrinders. And now the real work starts. The key is the consistency of downing these bosses and getting them on “farm status”. Farm status for us is killing a boss under 3 attempts, hoping for 1-shot kills more than likely.

We will tackle Cauldron of Carnage and hope to have the dueling duo down by the end of the month, moving on to Rik Reverb, which has challenged many other midcore guilds. Even those that we consider to be mid-to-hardcore have seen Rik break the guilds apart, so we’re hoping to continue to improve on Vexie & Cauldron to farm up the gear they drop. But it seems like raid gear isn’t the requirement anymore to kill bosses in a raid environment. It definitely does require us to farm Myth gear from Mythic+ Dungeons to really be able to compete with the needed DPS, mechanics, and throughput that is needed for Rik Reverb and beyond.

We will need our team to start really committing to grinding those M+ dungeons at 10 or above, which forms a real challenge for a soft-to-midcore guild that has adults with families and limited time. So we need to organize much more astutely to meet that challenge head on. The path to “Cutting Edge” is not easy at all for a guild like ours, but we are committing to trying to achieve it every season of The War Within, Midnight, and The Last Titan — the Worldsoul Saga.

TLP Clears Liberation of Undermine on Normal, Eyes Heroic Clear Next

First week… our Mythic team has fully cleared normal! Yay for us. 🙂

We set out to try to fully clear normal Liberation of Undermine within the first three weeks and it turns out the Mythic team we put together was able to not only clear normal, but downed 2 heroic bosses too! We even did a pick up day last Sunday to give Heroic a whirl, adding folks from our Heroic team if others couldn’t make it, and we did really well. At some point, however we decided to pair our team down, sitting out most of the heroic folks to be able to kill Cauldron of Carnage with a smaller team.

Now, we eye the rest of heroic for our Olympians and continue to progress with our Prophets through normal; we did manage to get 6/8 for the heroic team though. Overall, we’re really happy with the latest progress of both our teams.
