Title: Details for June 18th Guild Hunt Post by: sentania on June 11, 2003, 09:29:45 am First off: PLEASE COME!
We will need fire power for this event, 2 full groups of 50's; which shouldn't be hard considering we have 33 50's in guild; although how many of them are wildars :?: , but everyone who wants to come is welcome to. We'll need several tanks, a warden or two, bards, nukers, Druids... Here is the plan. We will meet in DL around 7:00 pm CT, spend sometime getting organized into as many groups as we can; if we can't field 2 Fg we'll either do plan B, or try to recruit from /as. What are we going to be doing you ask? Well, we are going to be killing some really big mobs that are in need of killing, and give us a change of local for some of the night. After we are organized, we will port to Midgard, and go wack on the Giant. After we kill him for a warm up. We will then proceed to Doden's and and zip around inside there; since most of us have little experience there we will proceed cautiously. If at some point we get rolled by RvRer's, or we act very un-trans like and wipe, we will just proceed directly to SH via Marfach Finally we will enter Summoners hall, and see what we can do to all the summoners. Here is a checklist for you if you plan to come: Talk to Jubie/Lyressa/Tani(or any other alchy that can make them): If you are a tank: Get End regen Potions, and End Restore potions. Possibly even heal potions. If you are a caster: Power regen and restore potions, and heal potions. It would be nice if every one had 3 or 4 of the appropriate regen potions, 8 or so restores, and a handfull of heal ones. I will pick up the tab for all potions (although I'm not really sure how to track cost on that...) If you have any thoughts or comments, or would just like to express your excitement at the thought of killing big nasty, mean, ugly monsters; let me hear it.

/hugs, Tani Title: Details for June 18th Guild Hunt Post by: Jebu on June 11, 2003, 03:31:41 pm First, I will definitely be there. Second, I would be happy to help Wildar level up his warden or help anyone else level a bit if they need to advance a few levels to join us.
Third, I would like to talk a bit about the Grand Summoner. Tani and I joined a group to try and take him out about a week ago. We had three full and diverse groups. They included some level 45 to 49 folks and weren't as experienced in RvE as we and didn't have enough tanks (I was the only pure tank), but they were good solid groups. I attacked the summoner by myself and they are left him alone untill I got good solid agro (definitely a good plan). Then they all chipped in (after killing summoned bows) and everything went very well untill he hit about 35% health. Then he started healing himself and he healed much faster than we could take him down. Everyone camped while I tanked and then we came back and tried to focus pull him (the pet trick). Same result, he started healing at about 35%. Casters can't touch him and we didn't have close to enough melee power to take him out. I doubt two Trans groups will fair any better. Last, housing is coming out in a couple weeks and I am curious if anyone has found any links that talk about prices or locations. Also, does anyone plan to buy a house by themselves. If there were some type of vendor system, I would buy one and become a serious crafter for the realm, but I don't think vendors are planned so I doubt if I will be buying one for my personal use. I'm curious what the rest of you think. Title: Details for June 18th Guild Hunt Post by: sentania on June 13, 2003, 07:11:58 am Here is the results of some of my Doden's and SH research, that I've been doing so I don't lead us on a a wild goose chase...
First off, Doden's is so much easier then marfach it's not even funny; seriously. Their equivlant to our Undead Hero's and Champs, con red-purple so they are like fin level (possibly a little harder, but they do not flood you with argo if you misstep). Next, I fought one of the Named mobs; Aross the Spiritmaster. I keep reading about how damn hard he is, I was able to get himto 90% with kubar and ailard, before ailard got argo. /nerf forgetting to put protect back on when you relog. I also fought the glacier giant. Jebu: He's just begging to be owned by you. He hit me for 800 (-270); so he's a meany, but it took him about 30 seconds (pretty good performance by Kubar IMO) to kill me. The fight was: Slam, attack, attack, attack. BOOM 7XX (AA proc was up), attack, attack; BOOM 8XX; attack, attack; block; attack attack; parry; Boom 8XX; me dead. I've never been to the summoners except to Suicde, so I don't mean to question you since you've been there, but are you sure the Grand Summoner summons bows??? I've read that a different one does that. We may or may not be able to take him (and the other ones), but I figure it's worth a shot... I'll do some more reading and get into summoners hall and play with how the different summoners react to being attacked... Housing: The only way I would get a personal house, is if they have a vendor system. Even then It depends on how much everything costs; the location I can get; how many other people are using the vendors, etc before I decide if I want one. I have not seen anything on prices or locations. On the herald they do have maps of the zones on the map-a-lot thing. I'm sure we'll start to see more about prices "next week" when it goes into open beta. I am however looking forward to guild housing, so we have a nice place to bind at and hang out, craft, watch Jebu and Kedica duel... I'll post some links sometime today, with lots of good reading about SH, and Dodens Also please note that these fights when successful, will be LONG. Some of the links I'll post talk about tanks being able to use IP twice in one fight...

Title: Details for June 18th Guild Hunt Post by: Kedihero on June 13, 2003, 12:43:45 pm Hey guys its me Kedi well i mad plans at works so that i could have that night off woot. so i will definately be there on time this time and i'm up for killing anything summoner would be a fun try again with like kubar said the right materials.

Kediaca Title: Details for June 18th Guild Hunt Post by: sentania on June 13, 2003, 01:52:38 pm jeez, kedi I would hope it's you.
Unless you let other people make posts on your board account :P /cheer for making plans with work/ or the women (hehe) /nerf kedi's spelling ability Sunday night if people would like, I will be making a run into Dodens and SH so if people would like to come along it will be nice xp, and a good time to do some field research. Title: Details for June 18th Guild Hunt Post by: Kedihero on June 14, 2003, 10:22:17 pm hehe Kubar bwa haha yes everyone has access to my posting ability..... ok so maybe not. As far as the spelling goes well i guess there is no excuse for that except for maybe i grew up in New Mexico and am comfused as to speak english or spanish :P. Well that is my moment of speaking hehe.
Title: Details for June 18th Guild Hunt Post by: Jebu on June 16, 2003, 08:56:28 am I misspoke, the summoner that summons the bows is not the grand summoner. I have only killed the grand guy once. He summoned a bunch of hard mobs at the beginning of the battle. Once they were taken care of he was not too hard. If remember correct, he was single hitting for up the 1200 and doing double hits of 800 or so. On that raid we had many groups and I believe I was in a good Trans group. I know that our group tanked him the entire time, but don't remember if I died a couple times or not. We have some very good healers and he hit slow. Slow hitting mobs are not hard with the healers we have.
In any case, the one that summoned the bows was stick as hard as I described. Title: Details for June 18th Guild Hunt Post by: Delthane on June 17, 2003, 01:34:06 pm HEY!!! Thats my BIRTHDAY!!!

He's a teenager now? Oh man.... Title: Details for June 18th Guild Hunt Post by: Taniko on June 19, 2003, 10:30:03 am Must have been D-Day! :wink: Happiest of birthdays to Durraan, and Delthane!!!
Thanks so much Sent for leading that fun escapade last night. I've always wanted to attack that giant, no matter what happened, just out of curiosity. And, those Mids in the dungeon and then the fort taking were just a blast!!!!!! I hope that we can do that again next week! And the huge bonus...........Hi again Singer!!! /hugs to you and Mary, Tani Title: Details for June 18th Guild Hunt Post by: sentania on June 19, 2003, 10:41:39 am Yeah singer stopping in was nice.
Well, I'm glad you all followed me, that turned out much better then some of my previous efforts at leading us on adventures. I was actually pretty happy with how the GG went. Him throwing us around is what hosed us up... that's an interesting little AI trick they gave him. You almost need a bard or two, in order to zip around and rez people that die when thrown. We didn't get to kill any of the named mobs in Dodens, but it was awesome fun getting to do the RvR while in there. That one fight where we had mids on one side and mobs on the other was awesome. To bad we didn't live through that, but it came close. I'll plan another adventure to lead us on sometime soon...perhaps we'll return to dodens again for some Xp/RvR... I'm also very proud of us for leading the effort to take Crau. It's to bad that phoryst got caught in the doors and we couldn't claim the keep. |
