Just a brief update to confirm that we did indeed kill the Balreth event in Solteris just a couple days after Aprosis went down.
I will keep this short for two reasons. I think the Aprosis update is still bigger news and deserve the spotlight a bit longer and second I think we will see an update about a Dead event 4 before too long and
Im too lazy to do 3 updates so close together.
So stay tuned for more
One day Kikthin was wandering through the woods in his pink hooded cape on his way to visit his grandmother. Once there, to his horror, he found his grandmother gone and a big mean wolf sleeping in her bed instead.
"My, what big teeth you have" said Kikthin and the wolf replied "That's so I better can eat you!". Kikthin screamed "No way!", kicked the wolf in a very special place and ran to the guild hall and gathered up all the
Raging Fury troops. Soon we were on our way
After testing some stuff as always and wiping several times, we made a nice little battleplan, wiped some more, changed plan etc etc. Tonight we executed it and you see the result below
Congratulations to Illandra and Kikthin on their new helmets
And big gratz to Sharifa and Grynoldy as well on respectively new augment and ring
And we lived happily ever after. Well, until tomorrow atleast..
What can I say..we have never been the fastest starters, but once we get rolling, we are unstoppable. I cant even keep up with making frontpage updates like this. Just 2 days after we defeated Astire, the Lunar Eclipe, we laid the smackdown on Irissa the Seer
With our copenhagen RL gathering past us, I guess I can not postpone this update any longer, although I am still somewhat in shock over discovering that Kithin is not really pink in RL and Xack
does not have a tail to name just a few surprises!
Actually this is not really news anymore, cause while I was slacking on the update, we went ahead and killed Irissa one more time and even made a brief visit to Commodus, supposedly the toughest
encounter in the zone. As promised, I do have a few pictures this time, courtesy of various other guildmembers since I was actually sitting outside in Katta trying to get the Astire update done
when guildchat was flooded with WOOOOOOTs from the first kill
First of we have a couple of action shots
And ofcourse the mandatory guild photo
The Irrissa event gave access to TBS arms and while the whole phospene cluster system allows people to buy lesser armor pieces instead of arms, I do believe that we got some nice
Gleaming Energeiac Chain Sleeves for Hohyed, Pristine Energeiac Plate Vambraces for Illandra and Phased Energeiac Silk Sleeves for Fuzzy.
As well as 2 x Silver Earring of Ephemeral Healing for Trebung and Aderel and along with that a Black Dirk of Shrouded Fate for Mensox and last but definitely not least a brand new Venomous Fang of the Seer for Calen.
All in all a nice round of upgrades
Looking forward to presenting you with some pictures of the Commodus event as soon as possible
Tonight Raging Fury has put the mighty prismatic dragon Kerafyrm the Awakened back to sleep as the first guild on
Antonius Bayle and fifth serverwide.
It has been a long way for us. We started our first real attempt on Kerafyrm on may 27th and early june we reached the
50% mark. On june 10th we reached 21% and the goal was in sight after spending 7 full days working on Kerafyrm when
lockouts on the rest of the zone and patches allowed it. It was a challenge to adjust to the AE, but we have kept improving our tactics and alot of different
approaches have been tried, while in the meantime our execution got better and better, eventually ending with this:
Once again we confirm our position among the best in EQ. We can only regret that we didnt get the chance to kill the same pre-patch version that we had been working on and came close to killing. However we are ready to
take on the challenge if/when the encounter gets retuned in difficulty again. After all, its not just about winning,
but winning with style!
I will try to get some screenies of the loot as soon as possible

After quite a few weeks of banging our heads against the event, tonight finally everything fell into place and we managed to beat the last event from The Darkened Sea called Calix Quirinus and Lanys.

Yes, once again Lanys T'Vyl was used as an adversary, what a novel idea! Anyway I have to admit that in this last incarnation that Darkelf lady was a real pain to fight. There was quite a bit going on (emotes, AEs, knockbacks, liches), but the most annoying part of this event from my point of view were the spark workers (some golems), who had a tendency to attack casters despite OTs using all their tools to get them controlled. I have never found events particularly amusing where certain classes were hindered to do their job properly. Yes in the end we worked around it (also the time between the golems blurring themselves was prolonged in a patch), but nonetheless I find it frustrating when you try to get a mob OTed properly and on a wimp the mob turns and runs to a freshly rezzed caster who didn't do anything to it - sorry, but that is simply retarded.
Whatever, tonight we overcame all obstacles, all those pesky little details which made us abort so often, so in the end we all got us some AA and could cheer:
As usual upon beating an expansion here is a picture of the successful raiders in their glory:
These are only those who were inside the raid upon the final attempt, but I would like to congratulate all the members of Raging Fury on finishing another expansion of EverQuest. While we have dropped out of the top 5 guilds (and actually also the top 10) lately, we still do well enough for such an old guild. While many other guilds on our server Antonius Bayle have fallen over the years, we still stand strong and provide a new home for some of those who would otherwise have been scattered across multiple guilds. Of course it is not always easy to integrate a huge number of new players into an old structure, but after a time people start to learn to coordinate and feel comfortable in their new surroundings, making the guild in total stronger. This has happened to our guild with the influx of not one, but two groups of players from other guilds on the server: Wind of Tranquility and Darkwind. Working side by side for a common goal is the best way to overcome barriers which always exist between rivaling guilds and I think that over the last months our new guild members have come to accept Raging Fury as their new home.
I will write a bit more about my personal verdict on TDS on one of the next days, but I do not want to finish without saying a huge "Thank you" to all of the team who have made this victory possible, first of all our main raid leader Nilzera, but also Rhuurgar who has lead many raids in TDS too. Second I want to thank the other officers Jarasil (great raid leading there too), Vmas (you still rock for doing the pesky RFP snaps) and our newest officer Washu for being a fearless bunny.
Also a huge thanks to all of our new class leaders, to all those people who have volunteered to sit out so we could get the right raid setup and of course to all those who have thrown themselves into the battle doing their very best on every attempt
Last but not least I would like to thank two people who are not members of our guild anymore: Fehu and Dantius. This may seem unusual to some, but both have worked really hard to integrate all those new members, to keep the guild on track and they both have left less than two weeks ago. Your work inside RF is not forgotten!
OK, that's it for now, we are closing in towards midnight, so I will finish this off simply by saying
Well done RF!
