ive bugged some lovely people with the idea of doing an all-ritualist team for fow! fow of course being the lovely place that will tolerate mistakes and also builds that arent completely optimized yet at the same time still coming back and kicking one in the *** if one behaves insanly stupid!
the ritualists, being the amazing creatures that they are, are one of the very few classes that would be able to pull this off the way i wanted it to be done! (that is without much change to the way pve is normaly played!!)
PURE-way!
which means - bringing only skills of ones primary profession!
a few ppl were intrigued by it and this week i finaly set a date!
yesterday!
ive bugged-bugged-bugged those lovely ppl and some sadly had to drop (icky sticky poo mal!) while at the same time we had surprising guest appearences (ola mandy!) and the rest was mostly the usaul setup of the always ready DVDFs and the lovely Sanra bugging one of their guildies!
a team was set and we pushed on!
offensive spirits, defensive, weapon spells spam, restoration and channeling made the trip into a piece of cake!
everyone did a superb job (even with builds like mine that were ... khm ... 'interesting' in some parts (do we see the lovely bloodsong on those piccies - well SOMEBODY forgot that bloodsong was moved and then that SPECIAL somebody changed the stats on their build - lowering channeling to 0 - while at the same time telling one of the channelers to bring bloodsong with them and then trashing their max BS with its completely nooby one
)we looked dashing as fow teams rarely do and we tore up the place!
our trip took a wrong turn while doing Tower of Strength after completing the Tower of Courage, The Eternal Forgemaster, Defend the Temple of War, Restore the Temple of War, Khobay the Betrayer and Army of Darkness (we were getting a tad tired since we took things very slow - with afk-ing a bit being an acceptable form of behaviour
) - since one of wurms dropped a shard for minus and taking the fact that some of the party members arent such lazy slobs like the rest of us (that have the saturday to sleep in) into account - we figured we might as well try to get it as fast as possible. we ran in, aggroed half the map and had a almost complete wipe (the first one of the evening tbh! since up till then things went insanely smooth! spirits were a superb decoy and the energy of restorers dropped to under 50% on just one or two insane aggroes and we still managed to lose one or two playres to it!) - and then when i tried to rez them - the patrols were everywhere! and then i finaly wiped too - since i was to busy typing stupid remarks (like 'diversion ftw!' ) when i should be RUNNING!!!all in all - one hell of a trip - being done by some amazing players!
thanks guys for tagging along!
as was expected - you did superb!
