The end is in sight

I will be taking a two-week spring break starting Monday. I will return on Monday April 6. Until then, stay well, stay separated, and WASH YOUR HANDS. Last night we finally came within sight of our AotC for this tier. We are at 11/12 Heroic and the final boss seems doable within the next couple …

Logic lesson from Blizz

Admin Note: As the health emergency widens and deepens, I will try my best to keep my thrice-weekly post schedule.
