Free Spirits raid progress continues. On Tuesday night we beat Durchest hard mode for the first time. To achieve HM Durchest you have to kill the original five adds plus an additional five adds before Durchest himself dies. After an initial wipe and a little fine tuning of the strats the five 'normal mode' adds went down smoothly. As Durchest's morale fell Que began to release the additional adds one by one. We had a nail biting finish with the final add being at 3K and Durchest at a little over 1K but fortunately the add died first closely followed by Durchest. Hard Mode nets two chests each with a barter coin for an armour piece so grats to Slowie on his new boots and to Goggs who won the chest item. Bal got a new teal bracelet and there were the usual relics and runes. Disappointingly, only two members of the team remembered to wear their pointy hats.
