GoD, Guild Firsts, and 1017

Well, the new expansion was released and as was expected the server was reset many times. So we put off exploring the expansion for a few days to take advantage of all the mobs that were respawning every day.

With all the patches, we spent the better half of the week working our butts off raiding mobs. Raid after raid after raid after raid. It was a never ending cycle. The big hits of the week were 2 back to back Emp kills. These 2 kills were also part of a couple of guild firsts:

1) Swept all the Ssra bosses in 1 day (Rhag 1, Rhag 2, Arch Lich, XTC, High Priest, Glyphed, Exiled, Cursed, Blood, and Emp)
2) Killed Emp with 37 people (lowest number yet for us).

Besides the Ssra massacres, our other big kill was TVX. Sure, he's not a "tough" mob, but man does he force feed ya the loot.

The release of GoD added a new bonus feature to EQ that wasn't advertised: Constant 1017! We were overjoyed with the fact that 50% of our raids were screwed in one form or another from this new feature. And the best part about it, SOE didn't charge us for it!

Seriously though, they really need to fix the 1017's as fast as possible. It's affecting everyone regardless of the content their in. And their little pop up box that comes up on the server select screen is just their way of baiting us: "We hope you enjoy playing EverQuest!" We'll let you know if we enjoy it if we can ever FUCKING LOG IN!!!

All the 1017's did help though with another guild first. They managed to cause us to pass on our turn in the VT rotation for the very first time! And to top that, it was our first ever turn in the rotation!!! Woohoo!!! Go go good team!!!

That's about all there is this week, except for the money shot...enjoy!

Til next week, taker easy fuggeroos
