Black Dye Lake... *snerk*. Of course, given the prices last time I checked, that should probably be White Dye Lake...

...or maybe Valueble Dye Lake. It mystically changes colour to whatever dye type is most valueble at the time!

I can see in Healbot's future a visit to the Jewelery Store, in order to craft a certain set of Elonian armor...

Poor Mhenlo, he either has to deal with Cynn or die by monsters. I think he took the easy way out.

And when did Healbot trade in her bent holy rod for a Holy Branch?

Is Cynn next on the menu? After all, that way they'll be together again...

I doubt this thread'll get a sticky until you do that mod cameo.

The original Healbot thread was a monumental sticky. Then I moved the content to my site so I could present the series as planned.

So Slayer, what have you done as a mod/player? All my cameos generally result from reputation or notoriety...

This thread's always at the top, so I don't really know if it necessarily needs to be stickied. If there's some way that it would benefit the comic, I'd consider it definitely.

I'm nothing, just an Off Topic and Screenshot Mod and a general member of SMS... Theres been nothing I've done that stands out, cept maybe a few of the armor combo trends with the female dervish. =/

I suppose being in SMS makes you notorious by association. You know, like being an accessory to a tabloid crime.

Anyway, readers that use the "index page" link will see a new, comical button on the site introduction. Fairebuckle is intruding on Healbot's enjoyment of her Nightfall CE...

Oh man, I lol'd IRL when I saw the "THIS MISSION'S TIMED?!" and the "What's a Snare?" Comments. The best part had to be when Healbot comes back with a 7-11 drink.

That one had me ROFLMAO, even though I didn't really get the part about that Paragon in her Vabbian armor and the interruption thing.

I really didn't know of a good "excuse" for a Paragon, so I went with the universal player bane - perfectly timed AI interrupts. I suppose she could have given a few more details, but she had to check to see if her face was mussed...

Anthems and Echos can be interrupted, as well as spear attacks.

Shame you couldn't fit in something in there about not carrying a res... had a mission recently where my ritualist and Alesia had gone down (along with two other characters) in a bad aggro right before the final boss and I thought "Should be fine, the DP isn't two onorous and it looks like the rest have it under control, there's two Monk secondaries there (a whammo and an emo) so one of them'll have a res..."

Nope.

And here I was thinking that the ability to carry reusable resses was one of the main points to having a Monk secondary. Evidently not. Remaining players than made a last-ditch effort to assassinate the boss with no healers and, predictably, failed.

Hope they learned the lesson. It's one of the few groups I've ever abandoned - that particular bad aggro wasn't the only one. I was actually kinda surprised we got as far as we did...

EDIT: Yes, anthems and echoes can be interrupted. I don't think they're high on the AI's priority list to interrupt, but it does happen if you try to use an anthem with a melee interruptor in your face or if the elementalist isn't keeping the AI interruptors busy enough.

Healbot was reminded of the "charging Warr syndrome" when she tried the Dajkah Inlet challenge. Nothin' like chasing after the melee goofs so you can RC 'em constantly. At least I got a stolen armor

I remember doing that mission with me as one of two Warriors. The other one rushed ahead before everyone loaded and when we asked him why, he responded that Warriors were supposed to have all the aggro and tank it, etc....

I just said "So which Warrior is alive now?" and he ragequit. We proceeded to smoke the mission. Just wanted to remind everyone that not all Warriors are idiots.

However, the way you draw the Warriors makes me laugh - they always have the angry eyes beneath a helm and/or posture themselves like they're relying too much on their weapons and armor (exactly what a lot of bad Warriors do). They just scream "I AM AN IGNORANT WAMMO!" to me.

Keep up the great work.

For an "excuse", the Ranger is putting the blame on team make-up. In this case, he wanted a team where 6/8 are B/P-ers like himself. This is a jab at all the strategy-nuts that moan and wail about being in a random group...
