Solo Artist Challenge

[Castigate]

So before I get back into it I need to mention that for some reason my logs shut off on April 5th, and I didn't notice it until after killing Drusella a few days ago, I am just guessing, but I assume it happened at the same time I stopped running EQ as an administrator. Honestly I didn't remember switching between admin/not, but I do remember my UI completely resetting on me at one point and having to redo the entire thing, and when I finally figured out that I needed to run EQ as an admin for the log to work a couple of days ago, my UI changed on me, apparently reverting to how it was in my next image.
Basically, I have screenshots, but don't have any logs of my kills between Apr 5 and May 22nd.
[S] The Crypt Feaster [52 Warrior, HS South]

This is a very old screenshot, maybe my first when I started keeping track of kills, I didn't even have a goblin skull earring at this point. I had been killing in HS south since probably Feb/March, but I think this is in fact my first SSed kill.

[S] Embalming Fluid [52 Warrior, HS South]

So I'd killed a few EF's before this one, but I'd never gotten an earring, I can actually still remember how this whole thing played out. I logged in one morning and saw EF up in the cave, the fight was pretty rough but I managed to bring him down, got my first hoop, and had a look around the rest of south.

Now here was where it got interesting, 20 minutes later EF is up again, and the only person in the zone is a necro who isn't 60 yet, so I immediately cap, drop the FBH to an alt, recharge, gate back, and set up to kill him again.

The second fight went more smoothly than the first, and I was very glad that I offloaded that first FBH to an alt, that is of course until it took me nearly a month to turn both of them into actual plat.

[S] The Spectre Spiritualist [53 Monk, HS South]

I do believe this was actually the same day as my double FBH out of EF, I remember both of these pretty well, but separately. This was my second time actually killing the Spiritualist, and until today when I did again, it was the last time I killed him. I don't know why, but this fight always seems to go badly for me, pet breaks, summons, root/mez/stun/slow resists, the Spiritualist tends to fuck me up even when the pull goes fine.

I actually ended up leaving HS right after this kill to join a fungi group with the guy I was talking to here. Didn't even wait to check the respawn.

[S] The Crypt Excavator [54 Warrior, HS East]

This was my first kill in east, and one of my oldest shots as well, and it just reminded me, I actually owned a goblin skull earring well before I started using it for casting. It was just for a junk buff back then.

The important thing about this fight though was that I discovered that by just running in YOLO and stunning all 3 pathers, nothing else actually agroed in the Southeast spawn spot, a fact that very recently got me the last couple east spawns I needed. I honestly expected to die going into this fight and probably should have, but somehow it worked out and I managed to take him down. I've made major adjustments to the process of fighting in that hallway since then, and discovered all sorts of ways to make the rooms on either side agro, but I may never have even tried to kill down there if it weren't for this fight.

[S] Mortiferous Protector [54 Warrior, HS East]

I believe this was actually my second GM kill. For the longest time I was under the impression that Drusella spawned all the way in the back in that pad room at the end of HS east, and I was planning to set up a kill on her eventually but had no idea how people pulled her all the way through that 7 spawn room, this lead me to try some really dumb stuff and need a few corpse summons, until I finally realized that I had Drusellas location completely wrong.

My very first time sneaking through the locked door this guy was up, and I believe I managed the fight on my first try and it didn't feel as difficult as these shots make it seem.

I would not end up killing that particular Undertaker Lord that you see casting, I think I took a shot or 2 at him, but failed miserably.
With that I'm at 10 images again and this post is done, cliff golem and whatever else fits next.
