Eiahn Posted a Battle Recap: Stonefalls Conquerors
As we swept across the rugged terrain housing the Crows Court, no foes could resist the sudden influx of twirling blades, fire-spitting staves, air-splitting arrows and all around unstoppable force that was the Gaiscioch Group that night. Without fear nor hesitation, they made their way through, like if it was their own backyard playground, taking no prisoners and only leaving dust clouds and remains in their wake. Some skills were owned by some courageous warriors, who braved 8 legged horrors, flying nightmares, growling mobs of sharp teethed creatures and heaps of unnameable foes, to accomplish a common goal...

Aoibheann Posted a Battle Recap: I ran as long as I could
and I will try to stay later next week... That was some remarkable fighting last night by one & all when we were hit hard by both Crystal Desert and Isle of Janthir on our home borderland. We were able held our own in any equal fight and we even had some wonderful open field fighting as well as beautifully defending the keeps and towers against them. I especially appreciate you all for holding our Bay when I had to log off, I hated to leave you out there, but I was falling asleep at the keyboard...

Kyle Posted a Blog: 'The Pale Tree' Lore
Hi everyone, I made a new sylvari the other day and came across an NPC by the name of 'Ventari'. He didn't look important, but I looked him up and oh boy was I in for a lore treat. I found him in front of me after creating my character talking to 3 dreamers who are interested in his wisdom. Ventari is/was an elder centaur of a tribe in Maguuma Jungle (GW1 & GW2). He wasn't the violent type and didn't like the ways of his own centaur people or the humans. So he decided to make camp elsewhere in the Tarnished Coast...

Kyle Posted a Blog: Dat run doe
To start off, I couldn't help but think about all the running our characters do in game. How many miles do we actually run in game? 8| I took a 4.63 mile trek down to the ocean. I wasn't overly exerted, but damn, if I had to be a video game character and run everywhere I'd be pissed D': Here's to our meticulously coded friends in game *Cheers*

Aoibheann Posted a Battle Recap: Though I came in late
You all did an amazing job out in WvW on reset night against an unexpected enemy. When I heard of this week's match up I knew that there would be some epic fighting and I was proved right when I popped out to have a look (I even finished my dailies). Excellent leading Smitty ... Those open field skirmishes were marvelous and you set the bar very high for us this week. Sorry I couldn't stay out longer, I am working on adjusting to the new time zone so I can play/lead later and longer. Keep up the excellent work and I hope to see you all out in the borderlands this week and for all the weeks to come! Aoibheann Sidhe

Aoibheann Posted a Battle Recap: Skill Point Hunters - Practice run
Thank you for coming out for a last minute practice run in the starter zones across the map for skill points. I am glad we had a small group for this one. With having to run to open some maps there was minimal time loss and even with the few events we stopped for along the way (we just couldn't resist doing SB when it spawned), we were able to start and finish this event in a little less than 2 hours - which is the timing I was looking for. I will be doing this event again for anyone who has a new account, new characters or just needs some skill points...

Smitty Posted a Battle Recap: Smitty's WvW Reset 1/23 - Excuse me, I believe I ordered a T6, not a T5?
I'm sorry waiter, this Tier is very rich... There is too much CD and IoJ in my soup! What a night for reset. We find ourselves staring down the barrel of a 1.5% chance of getting CD and IoJ this week and we eat the shot square in the face. But we are nothing if not sturdy folk. Listen, we haven't "bought" a single guild for our server and on our reset night we held together marvelously. Yes, CD brought their A+ zerg with them, but we held our own and kept them occupied long enough on our map to have a SIGNIFICANT portion of everything else taken...

Aoibheann Posted a Battle Recap: Great day in the Cursed Shore
Thank you for joining me in a wonderful event as we explored the map of the Cursed Shore. We gathered lots of goodies, killed many champions, completed a few events, gained a lot of traits, as well as skill points as we made our way to the achievements and Jump Puzzle. One of the achievements listed for the event: Beaker's Empty Belly was a mistake on my part, we did Grounded instead. My apologies I will double check my typing for next weeks event. Next week I will try to finish up all the achievements we haven't done yet and then work on a make up event for the Dive Master achievement...

Smitty Posted a Battle Recap: Miranda... (Mirannnnda)
She was glorious... (Mirannnnda) Her walls were thick, and strong... (Mirannnnda) Her waypoint was welcoming and safe... (Mirannnnda) She once was Hills belonging to Kaineng, then she was ours... (Mirannnnda) Look at her. No, DONT look at her... No, LOOK AT HER! (Mirannnnda) Her name was... Miranda... (Mirannnnda)

LT Posted a Battle Recap: He told us not to
"Don't get pushed off the side" he warns as I take a savage leap at an ele with 10% health - and go sailing off the cliff. I lived to climb back up for the floating loot bag.

Aoibheann Posted a Battle Recap: It was a cold day in H---, or em... EB
Yes folks, mark this day on your calendars, Aoibheann went to the Eternal Battlegrounds - voluntarily I might add ... and we enjoyed snowball fights with Kaineng & Gates of Madness. Poor dears got ran over with the snow plows and beaten with shovels. Thank you all for having patience as I fumbled around trying to find a place high enough to drop us over (I finally managed to kill one person running off of the cliff). Seriously though, when I first tagged up I was afraid that we would be bored what with that high point per tick that we had going...

Aoibheann Posted a Battle Recap: About last night...
I showed up, tagged up on SoR, even came into the Boom, Boom Bounce Room.... I said hello I am here, then waited a bit to see who would join me. However, since you had a leader leading and you guys were busy fighting, I finally tagged down and ran solo for a while. Seems like we had some misunderstanding, but not to worry, I will just try to do my event again next week. I might even try to start a little earlier as long as I am not intruding on another commander. Really the most important part was that you guys had fun, you all did well, the PPT was great and I know that you were in good hands with Smitty & Dreamtrip last night...

Jelaraiel Posted a Battle Recap: We held it together....
Went mostly well except when we couldnt find a catapult master when we needed one & didnt siege bubble them quite enough at the same time. I could tell our commander was feeling the stress of almost losing our catapults. During another part, after very sweet trebuchet placement, we got far & long into one of the opposing teams garrison until we ran out of supply & couldnt sustain the assault. At the very end of the session several of us agreed to stick around for a bit to sweep our last keep conquest...

Aoibheann Posted a Battle Recap: Saying good-bye to Pre-reset
Thank you for coming out today, it was a wonderful time in WvW & I really missed you all while I was busy moving last week. Special thanks to Jay for tagging as my co-lead to take back our supply camps on home borderland as well as getting and keeping our bloodlust across the borders, he did a fine job out there! I am sad to tell you that this was my last Friday pre-reset WvW event and happy to announce that Leslie is going to take over this time slot starting next week. Be sure to come out and join her for more Friday fun...

Lavum Posted a Guide: Raiding 101
Raiding... the final frontier... Wait.. wrong game. First off, I hope this guide helps both the old pro's and fresh Raiders alike. It has been a passion of mine for many years. Starting in WoW then spanning across Aion, Tera, Neverwinter and now in Elder Scrolls Online. It is the ultimate group effort that combines Skill, Timing, and a focal goal of all members involved. But like anything, you have to start with the basics. Combat In ESO combat is rather different. Not only do you build abilities off of each other but, you also have to work on mastering your weapons...

Rev Posted a Battle Recap: Like the monster in the horror movie
Just when you thought Jordyee's Zerg was not going to get that Keep, they came back again, and again, and again until it fell. We had to wear down FC a bit at a time. I probably died 5 times in the battle. Once they were out of supply, it was just a matter of time. Jordyee was a leader who would not be denied. They tried to block us from returning to the battle, and man did they have a bunch of AC's. Finally as our persistence wore them down, we saw the moment to charge. A couple brave Mesmers helped us to port large numbers into the Circle...

Aoibheann Posted a Battle Recap: A wild WIND....
Thank you so much for tagging up for me in WvW when I couldn't be there. You have come a long way in leading and I can not tell you how very proud I am of you and all that you have been able to overcome and how much you have accomplished. Keep up the good work! Aoibheann
