Prior to the Dragons of Norrath release, the general opinion was that the content of the new expansion would merely be an extention of the adventures found in the Lost Dungeons of Norrath, initially festering a hesitation amongst the players when deciding whether or not they would actually purchase the expansion.

While the mission system is highly reminiscent of the adventures found in the predecessing expansion, the DoN counterpart offers a very innovative and compelling progression quest, adding a sorely missed aspect to the game, namely an active player base outside of the normal raiding hours. The lack of new alternate advanced was somewhat frowned upon by many already at the peak of personal improvement, though the quest mentioned earlier has proven itself to yield quite significant rewards, a definite aid to any raiding guild.

Raidwise we have attempted two of the five dragons residing in the newly discovered lands beneath Lavastorm Mountains, more precisely Tirranun and Rikkukin. The latter supposedly offered quite an amusing encounter, though sadly I was not able to participate in the fight. Off the bat, Dragons of Norrath appears to be an entertaining addition to the Everquest saga, dissipating the faineant periods between actual raiding content, while having upgrades that will sough after by high end as well as low end players.

Concluding this update, one of the most inappropriate zone crashes we have experienced of late, though as someone was kind enough to remind me of, it could have been much much worse, i.e during Jelvan. The actual crashing process did not occurr until Warden Hanvar's hitpoints moved from 1% to 0%, in other words, perfectly timed.

As the topic indicates, we are currently seeking active CLERICS and ENCHANTERS to bolster our ranks. Cross server applicants are encouraged to apply, the two traits we hold in high regard are activity + ability. Id est, high playing times, and preferrably a certain amount of alternate advancement. For further information about the application process, please review our recruitment section on the forums or contact any officer in game (Anthas, Frolaak, Uren, Xack, Karde, Nineveh).

Onwards to more jovial aspects. Our enchanters are known serverwide for their unmatched logic and strategic dispositions, the first quote displayed below is an archived uttering from our suisse tactician, while the second quote was a recent occurrence, clearly following the trend.

Have you ever experienced an applicant constantly making up excuses for not attending raids? Most guilds probably have, though I think it fairly safe to assume that none bares even the slightest resemblance towards what you are about to witness below. Without further ado, Raging Fury proudly presents, Ravjack!

• Ravjack tells the raid, 'guys i ned to camp, electric cut out and im on battery charger atm. will be back when it comes back up.

In what can only be described as a way overdue kill, Tunat'Muram was defeated tonight, marking the completion of the Gates of Discord expansion, aproximately one year after its official release. Raging Fury practically spent weeks within this zone during the prime of a now obsolete expansion, but progression was thoroughly halted by Pixtt Kretv Kraxt, a fate shared by many a guild serverwide. Rumours of our upcoming victory actually caused a few dormant members of the guild to make an appearance, making tonights raid even more enjoyable.

Truth be told, this encounter was far from as difficult as one might expect, though it definitely followed the trend of the other encounters found within the zone, offering a much needed respite from the weekly Anguish routine.

The chamber of Glorification was the second raid event of Ikkinz, and much in coherence with the initial trial, it was completed Saturday without much effort involved.

Anthas became the first ranger to adorn himself with the latest weaponary fashion GoD has to offer, and as the picture in addition to the following quotes will clearly display, quickly became the center of attention based on the esthetic quality of this particular item.

We also attempted to complete the trials of transcendence, though it is with a touch of acerbity I will refrain from uttering any profanities in this update. Instead readers of this page may click here for Timmok's more than adequate coverage of our progress there.
