What do a Ring War, a cycle of ST Golems, Zlandicar, Draco, and the Statue in the image of Rallos Zek have in common? Not much. You have giants, crystal golems, a somewhat living dragon, a skeleton of a dinosaur with wings.. and a... stone statue? No problem, <Awakened> killed them anyway.
The Avatar of War, however, lived to see another spawn. Was tough going for an early morning vacation weekend. Nevertheless, we gave it a great attempt, since no one else decided to contest him.
When we showed up to the first spawn of the cycle, a late night Yelinak, we got our first taste of the new duo in action. Rustle brought some real power hitters to assist Aftermath in the slaying of this beast. Well, we didn't let that spoil our fun. Our Euro crew, again capitalizing on the lazy Americans, bagged us a Lord Koi`Doken.
After a somewhat smooth Dain kill, we gained some momentum inside ToV, slaying Aaryonar, Lord Feshlak, Lady Nevederia, Eashen of the Sky, and Dozekar the Cursed. In the middle of this slaughter, Rustle hinted that the new arrangement was only on targets outside of the foot race, by solo killing Ikatiar and co-raiding Cekenar with Venerate. (*Side grats to those guilds, especially Venerate, who seems to have a decent crew of people... Ring Wars, ToV attempts... Doing something right.*)
This week, Cazic Thule graced us with his presence during prime time, causing the Plane of Fear to see 175 people from a slew of guild tags. <Awakened> laid out Draco and Terror, and since we are telling tales of how we didn't get mobs that we might have had, had we gotten them, <Awakened> had a pretty good attempt on Cazic Thule. Unfortunately with the amount of people and the AoE lag, we had quite a few desyncs leading to a mob gating and summoning our tank. This is no good when Cazic decides he still wants to kill said tank and runs off to catch him! As we recovered, we heard shouting from across the zone. The return of CH Chains in shout, leading to many /ignore's, seems to be in the future.
No problem though. Still some big names to come! We went back to ToV with two new Grotesque Girdles, and took on Lendiniara the Keeper, Jorlleag, and Dagarn the Destroyer.
After giving Lord Vyemm a go early on Monday morning, the decision was made to let him stretch his legs for a few hours, until Klandicar enticed our members out of bed. We decided to dig graves for both of these guys, and capped the week off with a relaxing Vindicator kill.
Pretty solid week, and holiday weekend. See you all on the battlefield next weekend!
