Approximately a month after our first defeat of Breakneck in MMM, we finally defeated all the obstacles laid before us and have finished the zone in yet another in a long list of serverfirst victories.
As one of the guilds who entered MMM early and started working hard on progression, we have seen our share of bugs. We have killed 2 different Breaknecks, 3 different Krond (including the "unkillable regen" version) and
3 different prototypes. We have had events where you had to drop instance and clear trash again on every wipe cause events wouldnt reset properly and how can you forget the elevator of doom with its huuge trains?
One of the strengths of Raging Fury has always been to never give up. Was it 50+ attempts on Overlord Mata Muram and over 100 failures on Sisters in Solteris? Meldraths Majestic Mansion has surely tested our patience. Never
the less, we came out on top, doing what only 3 guilds serverwide has done before us and that makes this victory even more Sweet.
We are lucky that our continued success seem to draw high quality apps to Raging Fury to incorporate into our team to fill the roles after those that venture on to reallife endeavors and on the other hand less than a handful
left us to join other competing guilds over the last 2 years that I can remember, despite ongoing tells from other recruiters (some more humorous than others). All in all this means that over the years we have had a strong
foundation of experienced raiders at our disposal. Hats off to them all and they deserve a place on this frontpage for sure.
Below you can see our raidforce getting ready for the final battle with Meldrath
And ofcourse the outcome was a nice picnic in what used to be Meldrath's room!
We still have a very uneven distribution on core drops, so was almost funny to see that the BP core was one of our rarest and we now have a happy wizard with a new robe. MMM is still a source of tons of weapons
for us and its not uncommon at all to get 5 weapons in an evening. Meldrath himself proved to be no different and dropped a new weapon for us, along with a nice ring.
So whats next for Raging Fury? I guess 2 months of key farming and gearing up before we enter Crystallos and kick some behind in there. As usual, if you are interested in joining us, send a tell to our guild recruiter
Illandra. I know we might have room for an exceptional shaman and enchanter. We are most likely talking solteris gear and high RA, but Illandra will know for sure.
Here we go! Last of the events leading to the final confrontation with Meldrath the Malignant has been defeated
and we have paid the gnome mastermind the first visit. Expect to see a full update of the whole MMM zone defeated
soon!
So we did as he asked and went to pay him a little visit. Put a nice little dent in his suit also and plan to make that dent quite alot bigger very soon!
Tonight we took another step towards facing Meldrath himself, as Seneschal Bargangle Tinkerson was defeated. To increase our chances of winning, I wasnt online and therefor have no pictures other than the winning strat. So I am gonna break the rules and share this with you all, courtesy of Rummux the Tactician
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!
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
We are progressing nicely in the hellzone known as Meldrath's Majestic Mansion and I wouldnt be surprised to see some kills this week. Unfortunately, reallife has claimed a few of our members and we are looking for a couple of dedicated players, especially clerics, to help with the final push on the path to Crystallos.
Our full recruiting needs can be seen here: Recruiting status
It has been a while since we had open spots and I expect them to be filled fast, so do not hesitate to contact either Illandra or an officer in game for further info
It it a little overdue, but since the server was down yesterday, I decided to spend the time to finally finish our Raging Fury Solteris movie.
Our movie link is, as always: Raging Fury Movies
Hope you enjoy this little piece and we will be back with more news shortly
Secrets of Faydwer is here. With all the xp grinding, flagging, faction work and bugs that new expansions bring. But also with new scenery, cool new models, places to explore and new mobs to kill
So we have been doing exactly that. I think we are mostly done with the levelgrind and the flagging, so now we have started on the monster slaying. And ofcourse we will share our victories with you all. Here is a little glimpse at the critters we have met so far in SoF and who has fallen by the hands of Raging Fury
As a nice side effect, the last two times we visited Solteris, we cleared the whole zone in one day with a surprising low number on casualties total
Stay tuned for some "real" SoF raid mobs soon!
Hell yeah! Raging Fury has completed The Buried Sea expansion by killing the 2 gods Mayong Mistmoore and Solusek Ro in an epic battle. For a couple weeks, we have been clearing Solteris event 1-6 in 1 day,
giving us the rest of the week to play with the gods and finally our hard work paid off. I am proud to say we got another serverfirst finish of an expansion, making it 6 out of the last 7 expansions being
serverfirsts for us all the way back to Gates of Discord, only missing Vishimtar by 1 day to make a perfect record. Thats a pretty stable performance by the RF team.
So now it is time for an update with our recent progress as well as a small recruiting speech at the end of the update
Since we have defeated the event twice now, we have gotten alot of different loot which was very nice. I am not sure what to think about the 2 augments we have gotten from the event also. In my opinion it is a wasted lootslot,
but they went for a nice price, so guess it wasn't all bad. Not to mention all he stuff we get from clearing on the way there. Ofcourse the loot itself holds no value compared to the sense of accomplishment when this finally
all worked smoothly. I will not be as bold as to say event 7 is on farm status yet, cause it can still cause us trouble if not 110% focused, but it's starting to look better.
Most of the loot we have gotten from the event so far should be listed below for those interested:
We all know how Mayong and Solusek Ro looks and noone wants to see their ugly faces more than we have to after working on this fight for a while. So instead I present you with yet another guildphoto, complete with the new dwarf
models that noone ever gets tired of looking at! By the way, this is where you have the chance to insert your own character, should you qualify for one of the openings we have in recruiting; standing among friends with slain enemies at your feet.
Gratz to everyone present, both inside instance and those who had to sit outside and cheer. You all bring pride to the Raging Fury guildtag. Now we get a couple day of welldeserved break from Solteris before it starts all over when zone repops!
As for recruiting, I am happy to say we have full raids every night and all classes represented. We do however have a rare occasion where we will accept some exceptional applicants in the following classes:
- Warrior
- Shaman
- Shadowknight
- Druid
Speaking from experience, these openings will be filled very fast, so do not hesitate too long if you have the desire to join us. We have high requirements, but offer alot in return.
Just a very brief input to give you something to kill time with while we are killing big bad mobs.
Fuzzy has put up a link with the various RF movies we have made in the past and even a new TSS movie that was a little long in the making: Raging Fury Movies
Enjoy, and we will be back with an update on Mayong and Sol Ro soon!
