The Shadow Odyssey - Avatar of Disease Dead

It was a pretty busy night tonight that ended very quickly!

The night started out to clear VP so we could get Bonoman his Ranger Mythical (he betrayed from Assasin), Then we hit Trakanon for probably the last time. Then we headed off to kill The Tangrin and finally off to kill the just Avatar of Disease!

This guy was a a real chump! Other than hitting a little bit harder, (70% of his hits were critical hits!) he was not much different from his previous version. We know a patch is going in tomorrow to "fix" the Avatars so our current spree of killing them will be coming to an end, temporarily, but I am happy that what ever this bug was that temporarilly "nerfed" some of the avatars. We got some decent gear that allows us to progress even faster!

We took him down on our second attempt. Grats Deblin on your evil Avatar Two set bonus and Kaladz on your new wrist piece. I will put up the pictures tomorrow, when I log back in to EQ2.*

*edit, loot pictures posted.

Trakanon, Some Avatars and other stuff.

So, we 3 grouped Trakonon last night, no deaths, another mage belt dropped! Trakanon was by far one of my favorite fights, but he has become trivial as we've progressed. Trivial meaning, that with some common instanced drop gear and I can hit over 2k dps and I am sure I can hit over 3k with a few minor upgrades. It's too bad I have to wait 4 days between every test to see how I can improve. Last night I was solo-healing and curing my group so I had to sacrifice some of my dps, to group heal the softies. :)

Then we went off to Shard of Hate and I picked up a Ring of Rage to test out in my spell and melee dps set. The 10% bonus only effects one of my melee abilities and it doesn't bring it up 10% since in my melee DPS set +CA is near cap (~400). So Ring of Rage will be put in my Spell DPS set, simply to for the +4 crit and reduction of cast speed. GDI another week with out "Water Sprinklers". Gaige is right, I die a little bit inside each time the Gloves don't drop. We didn't finish the zone, mainly because we need somthing to do on our next raid day, as we'll still be locked out of everything.

War and Storms were up this week and both died shortly after they popped. War died just over the five minute mark and dropped another pair of Fur-lined Slippers of Al'Kabor which Pigul picked up, he's a tank chanter! Ultimmaa got a nice shiny pair of boots, the Lord Planeswalkers Boots.
