A story 7 years in the making, we've written the final chapter on Edge raiding. Thank you to everyone who built Edge into a team that was unique and worthy of your efforts. Special thanks to Kohler, without him we would not have had this last year together.

In the time since our departure from 25 and 10 man progression raiding, I've had many opportunities to reconnect and learn how your lives have been progressing post WoW. New sons and daughters, marriages, marathons, traveling the world, losing 20/50/100lbs!, makin all kinds of gains, dream jobs, dream girls, and the liberating divorce.

It has always been a pleasure being your recruitment officer and having brought so many of you together. Between the boss kills and friendships, the greatest experience you have given me has been watching you grow and learning from you. It is easy to forget, but you are the one percent in this game, both in skill and character. I am pleased beyond words to hear of all your successes in the real world and I look forward to more.

The friendships that have been crafted endure. Gentlemen, wherever circumstance may carry us, you stay classy.

25Man Heroic Boss Kills: Ultraxion - 59 US


We've slain Heroic Ultraxion and that will be our final victory as a 25man raiding guild. This December marked Edge reaching it's 5 year anniversary with over 3 years in the top 100 US, 2 years being in the top 50. I can speak for all of the officers, past and present, when I tell you how proud we are for what you've accomplished as a team in WoW.

Why do such madness? In these final months, we've realized that a significant portion of our team has only kept raiding this far out of loyalty and dedication. Few of us have enjoyed this game with the passion we've use to and and far too many of us loathed the content but stayed for the company. Many of us felt the guilt if we were to walk away and a sense of obligation doesn't make for much fun. We knew it was time. It is a testament to the quality of character we've had in Edge that we've gone this far out of friendship. Some of us will go on to other hardcore guilds and for those that have them, I ask you treat our friends well. For the rest, we shall remain on Garona.

With this, Edge moves beyond just WoW. Our forums and vent will endure and we will continue to play together in Steam, SW:ToR, SC2, and D3 whenever it is released. And it's possible Mists of Pandaria won't be shit.

I look forward to the next stage of our journey boys. You all have been gentlemen and it was truly an honor to be your recruitment officer. You stay classy.
