Well your little hobbit mns Cam did get to see the rift a few weeks ago. And now she found Helegrod in MM when she was grinding some stuff up there. And she wondered what kinda place that was.

And now she wants to go on Friday 12th Feb.

And Talon has accepted the task of leading the lot of us in there so go here and sign up.

If you don't know already. This is a lvl 50 raid instance in MM. 24 man raid so plenty of room.
No radiance or fancy gear required. Just pots and hope tokens. Min lvl 48 I would say and more then 2500 morale at least if you are light armored.

So if you got a low lvl alt and wanna get some good gear for it or just wanna have some overpowered fun plz sign up.

We are going regardless of how many sign up. Just wanna see how far we can get with as few as possible. But if we are to have any hope on getting the last boss down we need at least 12-15 ppl.

Don't miss out on this chance to hear Talon say the names of all those bosses ^^
He never gets em right.

Sure ofc there are. Well Cam have not been there before either. And if you have not done any forms of raiding before. You will be with experienced ppl and most of the fights are not that complicated for the new ppl. Normally you will be told where to go and what to hit. Or not hit so don't worry about it. Well a watcher raid is a good way to start... promise. Just ask any Biscuit.

My first raid was to the rift with the watchers, and i managed to wipe half of the raid in the room with furnamoles (or whatever they're called). Relax Iza, you'll be in good hands. ----------------------------------------------------------------

*Can almost see Iza gulping, and fingering that ring in her pocket with increased nervosity* Go for it, girl, you can do it! You're in for a lot of fun, nonsense and giggling lol

And Talon is very good (too good?) at explaining things. Make sure he explains thoroughly the fight against the 4 named drakes, ask him again just to be sure lol

There are many quests to do there, don't expect to complete them the first time you go. But to be able to take those quests, you need to complete the prequest that starts in Rivendell somewhere, maybe someone can show you. It involves a bit of ravelling around, so try to do that before the raid night. If Bramble is coming and you visit the spiders, poke her discreetly and ask her to step innocently into the cocoons, Talon will object and grumble, but you'll kill the number of spiderlings needed for your quest wink

Also, between the big group and the mobs, you may have some big lag, so it's a good idea to lower your graphic settings if it gets too bad.

Have great fun there, all lucky ones who can go!

*sulks*

Oh, last thing, if it's your first raid, make sure you have checked the "show raid assist" and other such things in your options.

nah, overpowered, maybe, but that does not mean that we will make it tongue

Looking really forward to it.

have some stack of poison and most importantly fear pots if you don't want to turn into a ticking time-bomb and ermm.. well that's all I remember for now. I could have sworn there was an article about thorog on our site but it seems I am mistaken.

Oh yeah sorry about that. He had to do that to stop the spam bots form joining.
I've told him about you "If you use the same forum name there" And it should be fixed soon.

If any one else is signing up on our forums to join this and have to wait. Let me know and I'll sort it out with the site admin. So he knows you are not a bot.

Tho atm Cam in all her excitement has not posted a time for this. But I presume its around 20:00 GTM.
Give or take 30 min.

I'll post the time here to when she makes up her mind ^^

Right. Well then it is bugged then. I've told him about it.
But in the meantime I've added your name to the raid list so you are ready to join that.
But for future raid/group joins you might have. It would be nice to get that account up and going.
So I'll send you a PM if he figures something out so we don't mess this post up to much ^^

Iza Posts: 41 Online: Offline Joined: Jan 20, 09	Thank you for adding me to the raid list Balcora. I was worried I wouldnt get approved in time for the sign up. Yes I would love to have my account up and running as its likely that I will be joining more groups/raids with the Watchers in the future. Yes PM sounds fine, I will stop blabbering.

Ooooohhh....Helegrod is major fun if you're going with Talon as leader *starts giggling when thinking of the 4 named dragons*
Unfortunately I will most probably be on my way back from Berlin (around 300 km), because I have to renew my pass at the embassy. I don't think I'll be joining you then afterwards, but I wish you all a fun night and hopefully I can join you all some other time.
