Elaenna Posted a Battle Recap: Wednesday night TD run
Even though we didn't get to accomplish a TD run since only 5 of us grouped up... Eluviette and the 5 of us finished my "Bouldergut" story line and then we ran to NMR in Tarken Glacier where we completed the Guild Quest and then even into the next Guild Quest of 1250 raft creatures. Great leadership as always El.... sorry Mango had to go to bed early, but I certainly know what that's like.

Maxina Posted a Battle Recap: Leadership Makes the Difference
This was the my first full TD run with my Primalist, Adieangirl. She did well putting up more DPS than I would have thought possible, not having any higher level gear. The run was great fun and a total success, I believe because of Eluveittie. He explains the how and most importantly the why of what to do. For someone like me who is so new to all this, it is exactly what I need. Of course I died and got to watch the others finishing off the last boss while laying there. Perhaps it is too much for my brain to run to the yellow circle not the purple...

WilliamBrandis Posted a Battle Recap: BUILD MOAR
So we were running around doing our thing like we do. I think I'm getting better at this game or Fog is getting slow in his old age because I actually managed to show up on time and stay on tag for the entire night. Anyways, we ran around for awhile and fed kills to the enemies, so on the plus side we hit our charitable goals for GSCH for the year. Kitty bailed earlier complaining about her coconuts and potato....I think the problem she has is she is using food for her internet and computer...

Maxina Posted a Battle Recap: Missed The Teleport
I am not sure what happened, but I didn't get the last teleport. The game kicked me out of the party; so I missed the end. I could hear them on Discord, but they could not hear me. Prior to that point we had a great we had a great time. It seemed like everyone has been there many times, at least for me that is true. Most of us knew what to do and when to do it; it went fast. This was my first time out with my Primalist. I just love playing her. I am used to a ranged rogue, so getting up close and personal to a huge boss was intimidating for me...

Winterlight Posted a Battle Recap: Dungeon Rumming
Goat has an awesome way of explaining a fight and being patient if we all wipe. He inspires us to keep on going and persevere as well. He never loses his cool either.

Varder Posted a Battle Recap: 7-30-17 Recap
Another great morning crifting. I like the fact that it is more of a social event than a grind. Most everyone has gotten the hand of the marking system now. We did 25 crifts even after a slow start finding tears. If you don't have a lure No Problem, join us anyway. As always, Tokens are appreciated but not expected. for now .... Good Hunting da V

GmaFog Posted a Battle Recap: ArenaNet made us stand in a corner.
Great time tonight - getting ready to follow Terafer out into battle and jump into Blue Borderlands. Not 2 minute in running and the yellow letters pop up "New Build in 10 Minutes" So we rush around and hit things. Taking a camp or 2 and it finally dumps us all out of WvW. We go to boot back in and no build was there and then it says. Try again. We sit chatting as we wait for the special moment when it will let us back in.. Another yellow set of letters, "New build will be ready in 1hour and 45 minutes...

Eluveittie Posted a Blog: Leading to victory in a no win battle.
There are many difficult things to be overcome when leading others. Fear of failure, desertion of those who were once willing to follow, being branded an incompetent leader. All of these can lead to a disastrous outcome. The real trick to leading is to LISTEN to what your followers want, OBSERVE the reality of your given situation, STRATEGY for possible outcomes and TACT for handling things beyond your control. So yes to be a leader you must be LOST. After much reflection and having seen the goings on in the guild regarding the way things are done; I took it upon myself to host events due to the lack of scheduled events posted on the guild website...

Garfiode Posted a Battle Recap: A hard fought battle.
We had to take them on even though we were one short. We started off by taking on Torn Fur, we knew from the beginning that he would be the easy one. We then made our way across the decks of the ships to the Legendary Balgren Creedbreaker, he took a bit more effort to kill. After that we headed down to Andal and his minions. The first try we failed at, but the gods saw value in our effort and let us have another try at Andel. The second battle with Andal was long faught and hard, but in the end we paravailed...

Maxina Posted a Battle Recap: Learning Experiance
We had a nice short meeting about how to set up events on the website. I think I want to start thinking about I can do, perhaps something with new and lower level characters.

Caludon Posted a Battle Recap: The Pack of Guardians on the prowl
It was a night of torment for foes in the Mists as the intrepid band of Guardians from GSCH prowled the Borderlands. The nearly permanently swift group of stalwarts shouted their way across the lands taking towers and repelling enemy invaders. The fealess Pookah, transformed into a giant Golem, led the band in and out of danger. The band was helpful for Guardians who were unfamiliar with the frontline shouting ways and were aided by a few other supporters as they traversed the Borderlands, wreaking havoc and carrying the GSCH flag to victory.

Varder Posted a Battle Recap: Sunday Morning Coffe and crifting
Another fun morning running with the guild. We started with 14 people and finished with 19. Tears seem to explode in our face this morning as several time a rift popped just as someone was about to use their lure? Creepy crudes got Louhi again this morning :(... Using the Mark Yourself system is working great. We finished 25 rift in 2 hours with time out for a bio. I used the "minor rift" to capture the 6 invasions we did. Good loot, 207 points and lots of coffee, great way to spend a Sunday Morning...

Intp Posted a Battle Recap: TD Run
I did not really think I was ready to tank TD tonight...but did it! Woot! -The Dragon, Spider and Council went very smooth. Last boss, realized a bit late that when I engaged the boss not only did I have the big red circular AOE...there was another AOE that spawned under me. After figuring out that I had to move out of the simultandeous stupid went well. I was blowing taunts on the boss and didn't have a taunt up to grab both the dragon and the Phoenix when they popped so the dragon ran around too much...

Intp Posted a Battle Recap: Moar tank training!
Thanks Sylese, LD, Tessa and Muppet! Good run, found a better pace. Darkening Deeps: Draw the mobs together in the big area running down the ramp and kill easily. I need to jump down from the bridge to grab the mobs under the bridge they keep cleaving everyone in the face down there. -Sneaky mob, I'm thinking run right at them with Aoe taunt to prevent assassination of the healer. -On big wolfy, hard to get him to move, charge seemed to work best to get his attention and get him to start moving again...

Intp Posted a Battle Recap: Monday 7.10-2017 RIFT Adventures: Zone Invasions
Monday 7.10-2017 RIFT Adventures: Zone Invasions Monday saw Fog lead the Rift family on a wild gallivant across Telara on our traditional Monday Rift Adventures. We track events using rift.events or similar and run, port, summon, rally and fall our way from zone to zone closing rifts, killing invasions and other objectives until the Zone Event boss spawns and mow them down. -Make sure you Mentor down to your appropriate level when you port around. It's safe to be within 5 levels (may be a bit more) but get the most loot and rewards if you are lower level...
