Jadera Posted a Blog: Mulenua's Hibernia Story
Part One: Origins Mulenua took the black ale to the back of the room and found a stout table that was heavy enough to handle anything and settled down. The inn is one of many within the city of Tir Na Nog but it is one of the few that Mulenua is both known and welcomed at. Mulenua was not her given name; Fiona of the Red Hair was what she was birthed with. Mulenua was an adopted name from the adventure stories that her grandfather told every night to help provide them both with hope. Her grandfather was at her birth, talking to the spirits that night to make sure everything went well...

Val Posted a Battle Recap: Thumbs up
It was the first time in a Ranger Roundtable for me. Being only lvl38 I gained information about different their builds, pets and skills, most were lvl80. Their information will be invaluable. If I may suggest, anyone having a Ranger to come to these meetings. Thanks to those that shared

Aingeal Posted a Battle Recap: Arah Conquest
This is a really easy dungeon all things consider. You have three stages that end with a champion fight, all of which can melt pretty easily assuming you have the right help. Next you have a legendary mob that you take on after defeating three Orian towers. The legendary mob has an interesting mechanic involving vortexes that spawn from his mouth. You have to 'shut him up' by throwing fireballs into the vortex. After that, its a matter of using cannons to down three champion dragons. Finally, you defend a laser that rips Zhaitan from the sky, beat up a few of his eyes, and finally shoot him to his death with another set of cannons...

Kadiskas Posted a Blog: Her First Battle
Finally after months of making her armor, Kadiskas was finally ready for the first test of it. Standing in the training arena, she glances to her father from behind her helmet, giving him a slight nod then turns back to her opponents. She had been training with these two for quite some time now and they had become friends. She crouches a bit as she raises her shield and sword. Narrowing her eyes at them she stands at the ready as her father calls out to them to start. One instantly vanishes from sight...

Adrian Posted a Blog: New event timer ingame overlay?
Has anyone seen the in game overlay timer for gw2stuff.com? Has anyone tried it?I want to but I figured I'd ask around first just to see what's going on. I don't have virus protection on my cp so I'm always iffy about downloading add on's.

Ragmar Posted a Battle Recap: Well, it was a fun loss.
This was my first guild led tPvP event. I pulled together a group of GSCH, and we ran in and jumped into a tourney just before prissy's event. It was definitely a lot of fun. The group was well built, and we worked together well, and almost had them. What cost us was they stole our boss kill. Had we gotten one of those boss kills in the beginning, we could've taken home a victory for the Gaiscioch. That being said, I've continued to participate in tournaments, and discovered a couple of winning strategies that I hope to be able to implement in the future...

Ragmar Posted a Battle Recap: Facerolling the JQ
I have to admit this is one of the greatest times I have ever had in WvW. I joined in a bit late, and so I did not get to participate in all of it, but what I did get to participate in, I had a blast. I think the best thing was having a commander who was very skilled and knew exactly what he was doing. At times it was a bit tense, as some hardcore "let's win this" attitudes clashed with the "hey, we're facerolling, let's laugh about it" attitudes, but then we got back to stomping the Jade Quarry and it smoothed over...

Ragmar Posted a Guide: A Note For Completing the Temple of Lyssa Event
- When doing the Temple of Lyssa, down all the Seal events to start with. This will activate the main event, and will allow you to fight the boss. - A few notes on the boss. One, she will throw you out of the ring, and you absolutely must get back in the center, or the catapults will tear you apart. Two, she spawns adds which are much more than a nuisance. These adds can make or break the fight for you. Three, she does a mass confusion/daze AoE. One of the nearby NPCs will warn you not to look at her, and you must turn away...

Altoid Posted a Battle Recap:
This was a group that was hosted by someone 5/12/2013 at around 8:30 pm PST. Didn't see it listed yesterday so I decided to throw it up. If there is a way to move it to the correct day let me know, first time putting a group up. Also I did not lead, if the leader wishes to take the credit feel free to let me know and I'll delete.

Ragmar Posted a Battle Recap: Through the Undead, the Ocean, and eventually on to the champion of Lyssa herself
I got home from a track meet just in time to jump into the world completion event. At first I was a bit hesitant, wondering if it was going to be just boring running around and around, but as it turns out, it was a blast. With the chatter from raidcall, the events we burned through, and the experience and loot we got, it was worth the trip. I generally don't do world completion, on the principle that running around solo bores me, but I really enjoyed this event. I have got to say that my absolute favorite part of the night was the Temple of Lyssa...

Ragmar Posted a Battle Recap: Running in the Guild
Participated in my first guild runs today. It was pretty awesome. I was unable to participate in more than the first two events, but I did, and it was a blast. I laughed listening to some of the raidcall talk, and I gathered up some waypoints on the way. It was great!

Oldgoat Posted a Battle Recap: An Impromptu Adventure
With some excellent guidance from Garette, and awesome teamwork, this group faced every challenge thrown at them. Patchouli Scarlet was also very instrumental in these victories. None of the bosses stood a "ghost" of a chance against this wily team.
