I know I kinda promised a MMM update with a kill last week. Unfortunately it takes more than just promises to make things happens. So instead, we worked hard and finally earned the kill. And not just one. To make up for the delay, we decided to bring you 2 Dead mobs instead. No other reason at all, I swear.
First we have Breakneck, Master at Arms. Alot have been said about this script and I am sure alot more will be said if the script, trash and elevators all remained unchanged. To be honest, I see no reason you have to go
through the first stages. The final fight is ok and if it was just this fight in a room somewhere with no popping and depopping, then it would probably be a nice event. With determination, we finally succeeded
with this frustrating part of the zone and Breakneck went down
Next up is Krond the Longhorn. Definitely more a traditional type of event. To be honest it was easier than expected and I am not convinced all mechanics are working properly as it is at the moment. Never the less, this
doesnt affect our tactics, and with this event being a bit more traditional, it did not take us long to put Krond to rest
Below you see the non-core rewards, first from Breakneck and then we had the luck to get double weapons on Krond. Atleast I think the paladins all agree on that.
Next up is working on some of the reportedly more buggy events in the zone. Tactical Prototype XXVII was actually the first event we worked on, so we already have some progress on this. Stay tuned for more next.
As always, dont forget to check out our recruitment section. We still have a few open spot for particularly - but not limited to - clerics
Some people think I have nothing else to do besides making frontpage updates, so they made a big conspiracy to kill Tactical Prototype XXVII just to keep me busy
So here it is. I am proud to announce that tonight, Raging Fury took our third scalp in Meldraths Majestic Mansion. Prototype is down and the gnomes went back to the drawing table!
Well, that was fast! Only 2 months ago I made the first news post about the latest Everquest expansion and now it is
already finished for us, ranking us among the top 5 guilds serverwide the 9th expansion in a row. Congrats everyone in
RF past and present on this achievement!
Let me also congratulate those 4 guilds who have finished this expansion a few days before us and I give over to this
fellow for a comment on the expansion:
So, what are your thoughts about this expansion raidwise, Lord Brekt?
OK, enough of the rambling, here is the traditional picture of the RF-crew that was in the raid upon the victory:
For those interested in the lore, this is what our good old friend Zebuxoruk has to say about our restoration of the
timeline and the defeat of the invading Discordians:
So, what was the best stuff in the last months from my personal point of view? Probably this:
Come on, what guy can not feel flattered when an army of rather hot looking girls is chasing him? Really, I have said it
when TBS was the new expansion, whoever did those sirens should be making the new character models, you are my hero!
Not every army consists of such lovely creatures though, here is a picture to proof that you can also get a ton of nasty
looking things when you don't focus on a raid:
Of course it might also have had something to do with Pippi's (see her in the front on the picture above?) rather... open
mind for weapons:
Whatever it was, it sure brought Imothep and Meph closer to each other (that's what you get for being the master of AE
agro - lots of deaths and necro love):
Judging from his musical taste (not to mention running around half naked in leather all the time), Meemers would probably
like to join in:
Vmas though is into some other sort of fetish - has anyone called 0800-illusion? Of course there are some limitations even to his collection:
So, SOE, if you want to make sure at least one person buys the next expansion: new bankslots FTW!
Sounds like a fun bunch of people we have here in RF? Maybe you think about joining us? There is a good chance for some
classes at the moment, one of them certainly rogues:
A slight exaggeration of course, but rogues are on our wishlist at this time, along with
berserkers, wizards, clerics and shamans.
We do accept applications of exceptional players from many of the other classes also, so speak to our recruiters Illandra or Abadonn or talk to an
officer if you want to know more.
That's it for now, folks, farming months incoming!
The new expansion is out since the 15th of December officially, so you are waiting desperately for news from Raging Fury?
OK, I don't want to disappoint you, here we go:
Shortly before our annual christmas break (a few people in RF actually DO have a life outside of EQ!) we went to that overgrown puppy in Brell's Rest and sent it home with its tail between its legs.
Fippy never was an adversary worth mentioning, but this incarnation at least provided some resistance looks at the bite marks in his armor. Slack as I am, I haven't made any screenshots, so no more
information there..
Of course you would! So the next adversary was a bug army and it had some nasty surprises ready:
So after we blasted through the millions (so it seemed) of smaller bugs, finally also the big one woke up:
As we had some of his nastier underlings also plowing through our ranks, I took it upon myself to deal with this mighty adversary!
Look at this picture and you see what I am about to do:
But as we finally turned all of our attention to Mr. Big Ugly Bug himself, we exterminated him easily, thus ending the Cliknar Invasion
So, 2 down, 1 to go in T6, stay tuned for the next news!
PS: We are still looking for a few players to fill the gaps, but hurry, they won't stay open forever.
Clerics, Berserkers and Wizards
are the classes we are mainly looking for, but we have single spots open for some other classes as well, so check our recruitment section for details.
Not among the classes we have currently open? Don't despair yet! We do accept applications of exceptional players from many of the other classes as well, so speak to our recruiters
Illandra, Nalelini or Zorland or talk to
an officer if you would like to know more ;)
Once upon a time in Norrath there was a guild called Raging Fury. It was among the most daring guilds existing in all of EverQuest and
so one day it ventured into a cold and desolate place in the domain of Brell Serilis called "The Cooling Chambers". Down there our guild
found a gargantuan beast resting on an island in the middle of the cave:
Daring as our guild was, it attacked the fierce beast with all its might, learning by pain and suffering, that for some victories you have to
labor hard and long. During the fight the guild found out many details about its fearsome foe, not the smallest of it being about the female
gender of the giant creature:
Many an attempt was made to strike down the gargantuan enemy, until on a glorious night the valiant guild didn't succumb to the claws of the
Beast, its mate or their hungry children. They stood strong and finally stroke down the last of their foes, so that a mighty cheer of victory
arose:
'The harder the foe, the bigger the triumph' can be said, and truly, a formidable foe the Beast had been! So all assembled on the spot,
where once the Beast had had its lair to see which treasures it might hold:
There was much rejoicing when Raging Fury could behold what was hidden inside the creature's lair apart from two sets of gauntlets: a precious
ring and a mighty sword
So much for this week's 'Fairie Tale Hour', in a historical context I can just say that this raid was the hardest I had to work on for
quite some time, so keep up the good work on those raids in Underfoot, SOE!
And now a final word from our research department:
That's all for now folks, next update when we got enough flags for the next tier raids!
Just a short flash update:
Today Raging Fury has downed its first Tier 4 raid in the current expansion, making us the fifth guild serverwide to beat this indeed very challenging event.
As it's late I will just put in one picture of the "big bad boss":
And here are the usual cheers and some lore:
Once again a really great performance by everyone!
