Mad Crusader, Ykesha's, Zarrakon and Pimp loot!

We started off the night with Tomb of the Mad crusader, and blew through that fairly quickly.

Then to Ykesha's Inner Stronghold and killed Tyrannus the Dark, which dropped a Templar helm pattren that I scooped up for Grouser. Then we spanked Field General Uktap, earning disco on the Dagger for Foresaken.


We then hit Zarrakon's Aybysal Chamber, killed him and...

Valor & Disease Down!

Last night we took Avatar of Disease and Avatar of Valor down with ease and earned some decent loot. I picked up Valor's charm for minimum bid, simply to complete a set so I would get +10 base heal and have an additional lotto heal proc when I am in DPS mode. Also I know I am going to be one of the last of the healers to complete the amazing Avatar of Growth and Avatar of Health charm combo, it's my own fault really. I went nuts early on to get my 6 piece TSO set and have replaced almost every slot in my inventory except for an earring and my Weapons, Trixy Cane and Star of Malice.

From Valor I also picked up a Master 1 Repent for my 80 Templar alt Grouser. Yes, I have two clerics. Why? Grouser who is a Sarnak was originally intended to become the Inquisitor for DA and was named Curmudgeon. Due to time constraints it would have been easier to betray and level Grump than Curmudgeon.

Sometime in October of last year I got a visit from a GM while sitting at the broker, some one Butcherblock petitioned the characters name as "a sexually offensive act" and when it means an "irritable and complaining person". I was more amused than anything that some one thought it was offensive and a GM bought it, I picked Grouser as Curmudgeon was hard for some to spell anyway.

Down, Down, Down we go, no where to stop...
I finally decided it was time to buy the Ethernaught's collection for both characters, I figured that I could get away spending at least 500 plat and had a nice chunk left over. So I bought two sets at roughly 180 each. After that I decided to go hunting for blue shinies, and I picked up quite a few, but I needed a bunch more and even though most blue shinies are pretty plain jane my completest addiction kicked in and I kept spending platinum until I was down to a meager 10 plat on each toon.

Avatar of Flame Down, New toy & Post #50!

Avatar of Flame went down this morning, #60th Avatar killed! Immortalis showed up with some new folks on their roster some long time members of Aftermath. After a couple of failed pulls on their part, we killed the AoF and I got myself a new toy.

Grats Gaige, Just Sayin'. I'm a slacker & Holy Avatar Kills Batman!

I am a slacker - I have not been updating in a while; We're still raiding and owning Butcherblock. Although one of the other raid guilds on the server finally took down Trakanon - The Lost, Grats.

Speaking of Trakanon; he finally gave up his mage belt, which Gerrod looted and the server disco. What is kind of funny, we've killed Traknon every time it's open and this was the first time we got the belt! The Lost on their second kill of Trak, a day after Gerrod get his, they loot the belt as well!

Avatar of Valor was up on the server this week for less than Ten minutes before we killed him he dropped some nice boots for Atarax, he also scored The Tenth Stone of Zen, dropped from Avatar of Hate a few days earlier, loot whore!

I got myself a nice helm off The Tangrin the other day. Yay! The Tangrin's loot table is a joke, there are 5 pieces total, pretty soon the guild will be equipping alts with his loot.

Grats Gaige! on getting Midnight Mantle of Secrets off Avatar of Mischief.

EQ2 EGG

This is a neat desktop app for players that like checking out other players gear set ups.
EQ2 EGG Really easy to install, it polls data from eq2players.com. It's really neat to see how your gear stacks up to other players in the game. Here is a thread for Inquisitors on EQ2Flames.

So, I decided to make a blog!

Dominance!

My guild Dracos Argent has complete contested domination on our server! I am not counting previous tiers or the "casual contested" mobs. We have taken down almost every avatar that has been up since May, we've missed a couple due to holidays and not being able to spend enough time on them due to depop or they have yet to spawn. We've server first killed all but two Avatars, we also have server first killed The Tangrin (wow, who clicked the easy button?) and cleared SoH first. Right now we're basicly waiting for the last 4 avatars to spawn on our server and then we've cleared ROK. Justice, Mischief, Disease and Below remain. Hopefully I can have some of our videos posted soon!
