New Things Are Fun!..... Sometimes
By: TernieLaBiscuit
Today, I romped with the guild to kill some dolmens. I still have over 100 before I get the Dolmen Crusher achievement (or whatever it's properly called).
I then printed off the list of General locations for dolmens, and was able to get one of the 6 I was missing -- The Ever Open Eye in Shadowfen. I still have 3 in Deshaan, 1 in Shadowfen and 1 in The Rift. Trying to clear those dolmens solo in The Rift isn't all that easy, though.
Still working on Monster Hunter. I'm very close to getting my Daedra Slayer done. I finished Flame Atronachs today when I completed Village of the Lost public dungeon. [Side note: on the Public Dungeon front, I have completed all dungeons, and have one Group Challenge left in Toothmaul Gulley, which is in Auridon] I still have about 30 Storm and Frost Atronachs to kill, and quite a few Flesh Atronachs. I need to find a low level area where I can kill Storm and Frost, because they don't seem to spawn very often in the dolmens, only the Flesh and that's usually only in Eastmarch or higher.
As I've been going into lower levels again, with my main character and my new character Bumbuttons the Bear Bopper [a strung out Imperial Nightblade girl with bad tattoos, but great hair, who likes her shackles and hasn't used an actual weapon yet (and she's level 7)] I've been collecting things for the next Fishing Expedition... whenever that may be.
I've been collecting gear for my lowbie Imperial Nightblade to research. Not that I really need to, but it saves me from using mats of my own to give up for research. It's really helped running the Public Dungeons because of the massive amounts of loot you get.
And, one last "new" thing I tried tonight: Dragonstar Arena. I found a random group of people, and we entered the Arena. The first two waves aren't too bad. But wave 3 - The Marsh, well.... let's just say there's a LOT of poison circle AoE action going on, and you don't really follow the 5 rules of Dodgeball in there. For those unaware, there are 10 rounds in Dragonstar Arena, each more difficult than the last. Think of it as an expanded Blessed Crucible. I think, however, if we got a team of 4, with a good tank and a good healer, that it's totally doable. Not that the people I was with were bad, by any means, they were just lower level (VR9, VR10) and you can tell a difference when it comes to ability.
In any case, it's 3am my time. I don't even know why I'm still up. I should have been in bed at least 3 hours ago, but whatever. Where else do I have to be, really?
So, hope to see you all soon, and if I don't, have a happy/merry/joyous whatever it is you celebrate. :)
