Aoibheann Posted a Battle Recap: Swift achievements and bonus events
Thank you all for joining me for another successful achievement run, it was short but sweet. It is always such a treat to find little adventures to do along the way or afterwards. Remember I take requests for mini dungeons and jump puzzles. Our next run on 2/7 will be more daring as we invade Fireheart Rise and Frostgorge Sound for two achievements and two Jump Puzzles, with bonuses for making the backpiece: Mawdrey. Please note that I am planning to do the Dive Master achievement on 2/21. See you out there for more fun and fellowship! Aoibheann Sidhe

Aoibheann Posted a Blog: Event / personal updates
There are many changes coming for me in the next few months, first thing is that my surgery/surgeries on my back have had to be postponed. I am preparing for a move at the end of the month. I had not planned to stay in Arizona, but wasn't expecting to be leaving quite so soon. Ah well, fate has a way of stepping in and I have to be out of here by the end of February. This won't effect my scheduled events until the week of the move, unless I have a Dr appointments. I do try to schedule these around my events, but it doesn't always work that way...

Terafer Posted a Battle Recap: Early Call to Arms in SoR brings large scale fights with BP and SF
Thank you Daggers for a great night of large scale fights. Well the call came early to try to get BP off the SW tower and from our initial SF border port we returned to SoR to find a LOT of BP holding an upgraded SW tower. Well the fights began and even though we had some really hard fights tonight, some we lost and quite a few more we won. I think we really did well for our evening. Thanks for sticking with me and helping to make our borders safe. Remember to bring a few spare merchants with the amount of bags we are getting from these fights you will need to empty your bags often...

TernieLaBiscuit Posted a Blog: PTS 1.6
Let me start out by saying, yes, one of the first things I did was kill a bard. Past that, here we go. First off, over the course of a few hours the past two nights, I have managed to get to level 7 of the Thieving class (there's some long L word they use for it, but I don't care because ESO doesn't even call being a Werewolf Lycanthropy). I have been doing the majority of my thieving in Craglorn, specifically in Belkarth. You level up by pickpocketing, breaking into houses, and lockpicking strongboxes you find...

Smitty Posted a Battle Recap: Smitty's WvW Reset 1/23 - We came in like a Wrecking Ball...
SABRES, WE STRIKE AGAIN! How good did THAT reset feel? I know it certainly gave me excitement was we clearly had the run of the field. Teamed up against BP and SF again this week, we find ourselves back in the lead of T8. There were many objectives to be had! The only struggle we had during the course of the evening was a few times that we attempted BP's Garrison and they were prepared with mucho arrow carts, and their whole zerg. White swords and good scouts make all the difference! But we persevered and succeeded several more times during the course of the evening to take it away from them...

Aoibheann Posted a Battle Recap: Short Asault
This event was not as long as what we usually run (2 1/2 hrs rather than 4 or 5 hrs), but I just couldn't sit still any longer. Thank you all for your patience with me this week, the side effects from the EMG are starting to wear off, so it will get easier. Don't forget, I won't be able to make my event again this coming Tuesday as I have another Dr's appointment, but I will be back for more fighting on the borderlands next Friday. After that I hope to be back to my normal WvW events for a while...

TernieLaBiscuit Posted a Blog: Things I've done this week
So, this week hasn't really been about grinding. It's been about achievements. * I got General Executioner, killing my last General in The Rift. * I got Anchor Devastator by defeating 250 total dolmens. * I was fortunate enough to join a group and complete Hel Ra Citadel (my first Trial) * I also got to blow the War Horn in Hel Ra (WOO) * I got Writ Upon the Sky, for completing 250 crafting writs. I hope to complete lower Craglorn at some point, as I have The Missing Guardian left of the Celestial Investigation collection...

TernieLaBiscuit Posted a Blog: ESO B2P Summary / Thoughts
I'm not transcribing verbatim, but rather watching the ESO Live Special Edition and commenting on sections as they cover the material. The first 10 minutes was a video of something. What that was, I don't know, but two guys were fighting, the winner walked off then a chick stabbed the loser like it was her finishing move or something. Then comes the reasoning as to why the subscription fee is being removed. It really comes down to the console editions being released. No one was going to pay for a monthly sub on a console, in addition to a sub on a game...

Smitty Posted a Battle Recap: Smitty's Sabres 1/13 - Do the Scooby Doo Shuffle...
ZOINKS, like, hey Sabres, who felt a bit ragged after all the running around we did? I'm exhausted! It totally felt like one of those chase scenes in Scooby Doo with everyone coming in and out the doors chasing each other. We were all over every map, and AR was on our tail, or we were on theirs, or DR decided to make an appearance for a "Very Special Episode" and then was never heard from again! Needless to say, we did our very best to split up and cause as much damage as we could last night...

Aoibheann Posted a Blog: Getting ready for surgery
My apologies for cancelling my WvW event with such short notice today. I received a last minute call from the VA this morning to tell me that they had an opening (someone else cancelled an appointment) for me to have an Electromyogram and a Nerve Conduction Study for late this morning. The results are still unknown to me, but the after effects are rather nasty at the moment. You probably won't see a lot of me in game for the next day or two as I recover from my tests as it is difficult for me to sit in front of the computer for more than 10 - 15 mins at a time...

Aoibheann Posted a Battle Recap: A very good start to the new event
Well tearing down the Separatist propaganda posters started off the 'Help the people of Ebonhawke' event. After killing the separatists we got to kill the Champion leader before continuing on to complete the Cleaning up the Neighborhood achievenent. Luckily they didn't mind us reading all the history books that they had hidden throughout the town for the Speedy Reader achievement. Sorry for getting us lost in the maze at the Inn. Next week we'll be doing the History Buff achievement that starts off in Lion's Arch & ends in Malchor's Leap where we must locate and read all of the Marriner's plaques...

Marcovius Posted a Battle Recap: Substitute Commanding - Because There Is No Such Thing As a Cancelled WvW Event
Slowly at first, then with growing momentum, my Blue Tag started attracting Rallians and GSCH Warriors to me. We successfully re-claimed our Home BL and smashed the Invaders in a couple of really good small-group fights. We then took the fight to their BL - Borlis Pass. Camps and Towers were easy (well, except for the NW tower - but we went back and took that one too...), but I still have not cracked the code on breaking into upgraded, waypointed, and massively sieged Keeps. We broke thru outer, and had inner down to about 50% - and that's when the heavy Arrow Cart fire started taking its toll...

Smitty Posted a Battle Recap: Smitty's Sabres 1/13 - Okay, who woke the BP baby?
Listen, you all need to keep it down around here. Both BP and SF were asleep quite soundly in their cribs, and Mommy and Daddy SoR had the place to ourselves. But someone had to go and make some noise and it woke BP up. Now, I know we were having a good time, and we were doing quite well, but now BP is making a mess of the place. We have to change their diaper, give them some formula and put them back to bed so Mommy and Daddy SoR can focus on working their way back up the "ladder". :) All kidding aside, the Sabres had their work cut out for them during their run as it seemed that BP managed to find a guild in their ranks to stand up and defend their homeland...

Aoibheann Posted a Battle Recap: A slow start
With the new content in the game today we didn't have the usual number of players out with us in WvW. So we started out a little slower, taking camps, building golems and bouncing around on all of the maps. Our rallians were trying to help, but they foiled some of our objectives by letting the enemy know where we were on the map. Despite the draw backs, we were able to take Borlis Pass' T3 Garri and keep it paper, and we almost took their Bay as well. We had better luck on Sorrow's Furnace where we took their Bay and Garri and held them for most of the event...

Coaxochdas Posted a Battle Recap: Ebonhart Sun Flyer
The Gold Standard made an appearance Pookha From the Games Returning” stolen from a poem By A. E. Housman Pookha from the wars returning, Spoiler of the other games, Here is ease that asks not earning; Turn you in and sit you down. Peace is come and wars are over, Welcome you and welcome all, While the charger crops the clover And his bridle hangs in stall-even if he is slow. Now no more of gamers biting, grinding, grinding from fall to spring, Summers full of sweat and fighting For the Kesar or the King...
