Greener Pastures

Apparition has moved from Area 52 to Zul'Jin. We didn't switch servers lightly, and we miss our friends who stayed behind, but we simply couldn't function as an endgame raiding guild in the Alliance faction on Area 52. Blizzard's short-sighted decisions to allow server and faction transfers to completely unbalance what had been at least a somewhat competitive server drained the Alliance pool to the point where we had to move. We'll continue cheering on the diehard Alliance on Area 52 from our new home, but this was a decision we had to make for the long-term health of our guild.

We're recruiting on Zul'jin, and we've already added a few new people. We know we've got the capability to clear content -- the dozen or more people in the guild with their 10-man Ulduar drakes, Starcaller and ToGC chest drops attest to that -- but we weren't able to put together consistent 25-man raids on Area 52. We expect that to change, and for our 25-man progression to catch up to our 10-man.

We're enjoying ourselves thoroughly on Zul'jin and want to thank everybody who's welcomed us to the server. Our only question: Sometimes, in heroics here, we get these things called "stone keeper shards" off the bosses. Anybody know what these things are all about? We don't remember ever getting any on A52...
