Velium Armor Quest Starting

We have started our hunt for the Velium Armor, along side our brothers of House of Hydra, Fenyrs was with us and lead us to the Sentient camp in Wakening Land, where he,Chey,faythe,Lonthalas,barad and myself started the kills. These ghostly hollow Armor Mobs are incredibly full of HPs, and hit for 110 pts dmg, It is not a hard job to kill them just takes awhile,with a full group it was really simple and they drop gems of various types that are used for the velium Armor, the Mobs also dropped pieces of Shadow Knight armor with some good stats. Those are being randomly rolled on. The gems that dropped went to appropriate class with a /ran roll...to be done that way until someone has 3 of 1 kind and will no longer roll on that gem. So far our very own Barad is in the fore-front of gems , she alone won crushed flame emerald,crushed black marble,crushed chrysolite,crushed onyx sapphire, with Fenyrs winning crushed opal, faythe winning crushed chrysolite (unknown gem). I will update as News breaks of more Items and quest pieces being looted.

Success in "The Tower"

I had a great time last night with my Guildies on a hunt in the Tower of frozen shadows, It was fun hunting with those I normally don't get to hunt with because of level difference, and I would like to do it again. But first, lets go over what we did and what we accomplished last night. We met up at the gnolls around 6pm (give or take a few minutes) and ventured forth. No one was in the tower so we had it all to ourselves, we hunted the first floor for a time, but we started getting guests so we moved our hunt on up to the 2nd floor , Barad had a key. Getting to the 2nd floor we tentively move forward, place was in full bloom, we sat to the right wall and I started pulling them. I was able to pull one at a time so we moved through them rather quickly. After only 5 pulls we got a surprise visit from the "Angry Librarian" she was pissed. she smacked us around, and was trying to put some bad Mojoo on us but we pressed her hard, never letting up, she finally turned tail and ran..heading for the interconnection of the floor, only to be stopped behind the desk. I was afraid she would bring the house down on us, but she died far enough away that it did not happen....from her anyway..;) For all I can tell, A pet got a little excited about the kill and got even more hungry so as we were killing the Angry Librarian the pet decided to go pull s few mobs himself....... note to self: zone has BAD pathing. As the Angry Librarian fell I turned to see him running and busting on about 3 students and scholars which after he seen he had more than his share he brought them running to his master. Poor Ravenhawk, he was the first to go down. I told the others to follow me and I took them (with the whole floor of mobs following us) to the secret book shelf where the magic mirror that will port us to ice clad stood. Barad, Lonthalas , and myself made it to the mirror, but in bad shape already, we didn't survive the on slot of snow dervish..we all perished. But...Lonthalas with the quick thinking he has, looted the Angry Librarian when the Ghosts started over taking us in the library.....way to go Lonth! We may have perished , but Ravenhawk received his "Students Homework" on that attempt which was only 1 of 2 we made. After all were resurrected, we went back (cant keep a good group down) we now had a better idea of what was to be expected and had a very easy time of it. We even got a visit from Faythe , Chey and Rilian soon after and they proceeding on to the floor, no pun intended, they stopped to crack and buff a little and move on. The group now consisted of Me, Tenye, Ravenhawk,Barad,Reinn, Lonthalas, and Sonami joined us later. We pulled for awhile , and another group ventured in , I asked them to move to the left wall. They didn't have the determination we had so they left without a spawn. 30 minutes later another "angry Librarian " spawned ..she went down VERY fast we had been ready this time, and Pet even behaved. So wish the luck of the Warrior here , we got Sonami`s homework as well...two drops of the same rare back to back. other successes we had Lonth is now over 100 in piercing Sonami has her MemBLur spell Tenye got to meet other members and say Hi (which I want to thank her for staying with me and Barad for abandoning her quest at bridge to help out) I have to say...I had fun and we all learned a lot from each other. Again , it was good to hunt with my mid level guildies again Until the next time

Player Profiles on Casters Realm

I would like everyone to look that the link on my name in the members section and see what you think.  It takes you to Casters Realm and a service they provide which allows you to set up a player profile for your character.  It is a little time consuming in the beginning but once you have the profile complete it is very easy to update.  Furthermore, I have plans to later make it easy for your guild mates and website visitors to find out more about you using this service.  When you have a few minutes, please set one up and let me know.  I will link your name, as I have mine.

RyGorr Fort

Several hours were spent yesterday at the Rygorr fort in Eastern Wastes.  Although the mood varies wildly from "OMG we can't handle all this" to "OMG I am so BORED", at the end of the day it was a near total success.  Faythe displays her new look, which is largely based on the loot accuired from the Rygorr Fort and Terrassi displays her new Rygorr Battlemail.

Updated The Tower of Frozen Shadow

In the center of Iceclad lies one of the most ominous towers I have ever seen.  On my first visit to Velious I stared at this massive tower, wondering what lay inside.  The past Sunday (01/21/01) six adventurers wandered into the Tower of Frozen Shadow.  This is a recount of their story.

WOOT Loot

Congrats to Tudana on her new hammer.  Looted off the Giants in Velious

Unrest, A Success

Friday December 22, 2000 was the first of our regularly scheduled hunts and what a great way to kick it off.  We met, a little late, at the opening to Unrest; Tudana, Faythe, Rilian Lonthalas, and Terrassi.  The tanks allowed us casters a little time to buff and regain our mana while they killed some lower mobs in the courtyard.  Then we moved to the back of the manor.  Tudana pulled singles out of the manor to clear the room and we made our way in.  We moved room to room, killing off both small and large mobs and made our way to the top floor.  Just when we were about to think we had picked the wrong room, the Undead Knight of Unrest appeared and we quickly took him out too.  The cheap knight never dropped what we came for, but it was a welcome change to take on this dungeon, gain some exp, and get some loot.  Great job guys.

Droga Hunt Club

We hunted there Saturday all day...got a good ways in before trained out. Had to Evac That is where we got 2 Warpainted spears (random) and some good coin drops, a few pages and runes. But the Exp. WAS GREAT ! The dungeon is diffecult due to the "fight and move" tactic you have to use... If you want to go far in it ......, If you want to just grind away you can stay in a room not far from the drop in. ( cave is a one way ) need a gater in party to get out So when you guys are ready to get a party together let me know I`ll escort you in and enjoy the company..:)

Velious Patch Updates

Here are a couple important things I read about the Velious patch.

In addition to rogues, bards, who always had the ability to disarm traps, have gained the ability to sense them as well. Since we are aware that some may have not bothered training sense or disarm traps due to them formerly being unimplemented, bards and rogues will have the ability to gain skill without training once they have reached the appropriate level and have crossed a zone boundary.

These skills now have use within Velious. There are traps, and they range from annoying to deadly throughout Velious. They are invisible and can only be detected and disarmed by rogues and bard.

Use "Sense Traps" to see if there are any traps in the vicinity. If so, you can then use "Disarm traps" to try and disarm the trap. Once disarmed, the trap will remain inactive for a short period of time (about a minute) while your group passes through the area.

If there are multiple traps within range, your attempt to disarm will be directed towards the closest one.

 

Due to the importance of faction within Velious, we wanted to avoid a situation where a group could die in an area, and then easily bring in someone with good faction to drag all of the corpses out without consequence or risk. As such, there are some zones in Velious where dragging a corpse is considered "assisting the enemy" by the inhabitants of the area. They will react accordingly.
