Updated. Remember to post screenshots of your titles with a UTC time stamp. We should be seeing some titles this week.

Yes I don't know how I missed that. Sorry. Updated.

I used your video to verify but when you get a chance can post the achievement. Just edit your original post and add it in there. Thanks.

No problem. I put it in but marked it as unverified. Will make it verified once you post the right achievement.

Updated. But running out of space. The next three guilds to kill DG and post their proof shots will be the last three recorded for now. I will do my best to expand the spreadsheet but that might not be done until the weekend. Thanks.

If you guys are participating in this progression thread I'll need a proof screenshot of your Writhing Horror kill.

TFB Cleared. Remaining Screenshots Operator IX Kephess The Undying The Terror From Beyond

Spreadsheet updated. Congratulations to Drop it like it's Hoth on their World First clear of TFB NiM. Good job guys and hopefully you participate in the S&V Progression thread as well.

SuckaFish The Bastion US West Writhing Horror Dread Guards

Thanks. Updated.

Are you participating in this progression thread or just proving the kill. If you are participating can I get your proof shot of Writhing Horror. Thanks.

Appreciate the warning. The discussion is over. There is nothing left to be said on the matter. I adjusted the spreadsheet. Continue posting your boss kills. Thanks.

After mulling it over with a few people and having some discussions with Enkay (D&T GM) I have decided to not accept the remaining boss kills and subsequent NiM TFB clear that resulted from D&T skipping the Dread Guards encounter. D&T will not be disqualified from this Progression thread and are welcomed to continue participating if they wish. Once they clear the instance in order I will record their kills with their new times. Enkay and I just couldn't come to a consensus but he reminded me that it is my thread and I am free to make whatever decision I deem fair. SWTOR raiding is linear and every boss must be defeated in order. Skipping a boss in this game means lowering the difficulty of the instance to do so. That is proof enough for me to believe in the linearity of SWTOR Ops. There a lot of good guilds that accepted the challenge that is Dread Guards. A fight that my guild proved last night is doable as we got Kel'Sara to 10% even though we got three Ciphas shields in the first phase. We were consistently getting two shields but on that fateful attempt we got three. So we believe it's doable, though very challenging. But the guilds that have accepted the challenge should be rewarded if they complete it. And as far my spreadsheet and this progression thread is concerned the World First titles and US First titles are still up for grabs. There is nothing official about my progression thread. If you participate I will track your progression and it gives everyone something central to look at instead of digging through Server Forums to find out who killed what first. With that being said I told Enkay that he and D&T are free to claim the WF Clear elsewhere. I think everyone knows how it was accomplished and each individual in the community can look at the facts and make up their own minds if that claim is legit or not. For me, I have made up my mind and this progression thread will not recognize it.

Are you guys really claiming this after skipping the wall that is DG?

Updated. I have converted any screenshots without UTC time stamps to UTC time based on your server time zone. I am only doing it for the first boss and yes it's not as accurate and will be marked unverified. Please take your screenshots going forward with the UTC time-stamp present. Instructions are in the original post..

Updated the spreadsheet before we venture out into TFB again. Once again I want to reiterate that I am continuing to track D&T's progress. At this point me doing that doesn't mean anything. I just don't want to dig through the thread again looking for screenshots. This is a community decision and judging from the feedback in this thread I can see where most are leaning. But I have to discuss possible solutions with a few people. Once that's done I will present it and we'll go forward.

This thread has ballooned into a legit discussion at this point. To be honest when we did the spreadsheet this is not something we figured into it. A mistake on our parts for sure. We didn't think anyone would find a boss "impossible" and opt to skip it. I think the biggest advantage D&T has in doing so is simply more time spent on Op 9, Kephess and TFB while the rest of us try to kill DG as we should. I don't think 3 pieces of gear going to one person or spread out among 3 would not turn a 40-25% enrage into a kill. But the time spent on the other bosses is an advantage considering how it was achieved. Give me sometime to think on this. I will consider everyone's feedback and also talk to some other people and get some different opinions. Meanwhile I will continue to track D&T's progress on the chart until I have a had a chance to discuss this with a few people and see if we can't come up with something that will work for the community and D&T, if such a thing exists.

I recorded your kill and converted the time on your achievement to UTC so that it didn't screw up the spreadsheet. For future kills please ensure your screenshots include the UTC time stamp to be verified. Instructions are in the original post in this thread.

Did a quick update because I don't want to get behind. I know some guilds are also saving their posts until they are done with instance or done for the day. Ensure to look at the Summary tab for the sorted rankings.

Yes. I can't understand the French but I can tell it's NiM because of the boss' HP. The only thing I can say going forward is to right click your portrait then select phase and then Operations Challenge Mode and take your screenshot where the difficultly is showing. I'd be able to tell its nightmare mode because the third option would be selected.

Looks like it's a go for Wednesday. Please remember to take your verification screenshots. Ensure that the achievement and the UTC Time Stamp are present. Good luck to all that participate.

Well looks like we are delayed. I will investigate the the achievement time stamp. Trust me I know how easy it is to forget the UTC time stamp in the screenshot. I would be ecstatic if everything could be verified from just the achievement. Edit:: I added instructions to the first post explaining how to take a screenshot with the UTC Clock window present. This can be found under the section that details how to verify boss kills.

Please stop the trolling. It's fine if you don't want to contribute, but I know there are a lot that will. Like I said in my initial post, unverified kills will only get 90% of the allotted points for each boss that is unverified.

Apologies. Forgot to set it to view. It should be good now.
