Dragon this, dragon that! bah, lets give it a try!

[Matinex]

Something i really looked forward to is when someone in hibernia get things going to do fun stuff that has nothing to do with rvr, we all know we cant take a relic (failed the only time we tried for real), forts are too easy, casual emaining is nothing special. What i am interested in is exploring new areas, see if we can get new drops that no1 else got before, not even on US servers. However this may sound a little crazy to some of you but what the hell! I was thinking, about we get a group of lvl 45+ ppl, around 60-70 and give a try on the dragon. Some of you may think its impossible but it is not, i heard that the dragon gets harder after patch 1.46 and we are on 1.45, we got enough of high levels, a lvl 45+ will be able to hit the dragon and we should have at least a fair chance to take him to take him down. I know alot of ppl been hitting lvl 50 in hibernia lately, and i know alot of you are being kind of bored with the same thing going on. Dont you think it will be fun when he drops the dps 16.5 wpns etc, etc. God i would love to have that spear . Here is my idea if we get at least 64 ppl to show up on this event. That would be 8 groups of 8.

2 groups who are lower would take care of all the adds and make sure no knights/dws/geists reach the dragon to help him

5 main groups that go in and charge the group for 20 secs and then hide again for the dragons AOE.

1 group that is in a "safe spot" that would go in and resurrect people if needed.

Well that is just a idea of how things would work, im sure some people have better ideas and you are welcome to come with them and help me out if we ever get something like this going in hibernia/Excalibur.
We could try the queen cliodna in siabra city first, if we wont take her with the group i was thinking to get together we dont even have to bother going into sheeroes. I know cliodna hit me for 650+- at lvl 48, so that would not be so hard.

Anyways, you people who are interested to helping me, showing up, like my idea, please post on this thread with what you think about this, as i said i know its "too much" but what will you loose if it wont work?

Ill let you know of place and time when i get enough people signing up on this thread, it will be this weekend.

I'd be happy to help

Ofcourse i'm only 41, but you might need some low guys to keep the adds away as you said.

So if it seems you can use me, count me in.

[old.Laryssa]

count me in - at least I can do some first-aid to the recently raised chars (heal, PoT, HoT).

 

[old.Trapp|Uberleech]

I like the idea, we need more of these kind of things. Btw I don't think we know when the dragon aoe's the place so we won't be able to escape but what da hell.

Mat

well that attitude is not getting us any relic, if we don't try we won't get any, I'm sure we can take relics if we give it a chance ffs

 

[old.Organ-Grinder]

can you post the screenies of ALL the hibs doing a study of worms please after he killed you all and you barely scratched him ?

imo i dont think any realm has the ability to kill the dragon yet "on excaliber" from what i can gather its only been killed 1-3 times in the yank servers? and even then it took over 100 folks "mainly theurgs" casting 100000000 pets at it .

 

[Cloak_]

Id like to help how I can
Better post on here when you're thinking about going,, since U cant msg my real in game persona

 

[old.MacKewl]

Sounds like a plan. The RvR tactics do seem to be an idea.. it bepends on the splash damage that the dragon causes.. if it hits for hundreds of points of damage on all units in base contact then mucho death all of a sudden..

Of course the resulting grave stones (as ressers would be dead) would make the dragons lair look more like a dragons lair except no skels.

[Feldegast]

Well count me in, im bound to be lvl 50 in a few days and this is what the end game is all about.

I read somewhere that the dragon only nukes if all arent in melee range.. so either far far away (not in another galaxy..) (soory for the SW joke...) or really up close..

Have all mobs in CF been killed?

 

[Wuren]

yeah i really want to try the dragon, and as matinex said: he gets harder in later patches. I read somewhere on VN boards that ae cant hit u if ur hiding behind some stones in his lair, a lvl 50 Hero lasted 45 sec in meele vs dragon when he was camping there.

I got to taste the ae yesterday (4837 dmg) and i had aggro from him atm when he blasted. I hit him for 7 (-1) with Glimmer Geist Spear 16.2 dps, spd 3.5. But with a nice dmg add u can actually hurt him.


Feldegast: I have been with grps killing Blight, Oghamist, Skghascshese (whatever), Wvyrenic Wraith and Juggernaut. Couldnt find Ufas

 

[censi]

I solo'd this dragon the other day. Killed it in one critical hit... Went from lvl 1 to lvl 50 in one kill!!!! It was the first mob i killed in the game....

*coughs*

but im up for killing it again *cough * *cough*

lets get it arranged.

 

[old.MacKewl]

Dang.. just checked the screen shots from the other Dragon expidition.. Slaugher but valiant attempt.

We should have a designated day and time and head there.. alert all the guilds and get as many people as possible and then go. I know I don't have a high lvl char but I will definitely get as many of the Dragons to go as I can and I am sure a couple of groups of low lvl chars can at least distract the beast.. the more the merrier..

Then we go take a Relic. Hibernia has the greatest RvR contingent with great commanders and we are coming together and have the potential to ROCK this server.

[old.Charonel]

but we'll get to the relic keep and someone will say "ok i'm going to pull some guards".

someone else steps up and says "no. i'm pulling guards"

"no I will pull the guards!"

"look. we worked this out at ligen before, i'm pulling the damn guards undersand?!"

"no i dont! because i'm pulling the fking guards got it!!!!?"

"...piss... ...off!!!!..."

someone else walks up.

"hangon guys... we decided in alliance last night that my guild would pull the guards"

"fuck you! i'm pulling the damn guards!"

then some people decide to start /yelling a protracted conversation to each other in spanish for no apparent reason, ignoring everyone who askes them not too.

about 2 hours later an albion army arrives to see some hibs yelling at each other in languages they can't understand while the hib army is camped near the relic guards.... which havent been pulled yet

 

[old.Charonel]

i'm not saying that we'd actually screw up a relic raid in that way... all our keep raids that i've seen or participated in have gone VERY smooth... (except sursbrook with that truely insane guard pop(s) )

but i'm just saying that for instance, most of CF tend to just bicker with most of CB (from what i've seen... not ALL of them by any means but a lot), and there are other things too which makes me think that hibernia as it is now is just WAY too fragmented to stand a chance of a relic raid. in a few months time maybe things will have settled, dont know but either way, most guilds tend to just try to "keep up with the jonses" and are constantly trying to compete with each other than work together and in that situation i just dont see a decent relic raid actually being possible.

could be wrong of course.

btw. the CB, CF reference was just two guilds from many i've seen bitching at each other constantly... this is nothing special about those two alone.

[old.Cadwyr]

Cool idea, well worth a try

 

[old.Niljindil]

Im gonna DoT him!! keel!

as long as he is not more than 10-15 level higher than a grand pooka i think i can land a spell or 2 with a mana bar

Edit: unless he is some lameass immune to spells or smt.

 

[old.Asmodan]

ill come if i have time

 

[<Harle>]

Count me in

 

[Eblessair]

YESYESYES!

 

[Nicky Nook]

Well done Matinex for the Idea and yes count me in but i have a few points to make.

1. The Dragon imo atm will own us but im up for some fun anyway so post the time and date and im sure alot of people will turn up.

2. I think im correct in saying that as you say the Dragon is Harder in Later versions but i also remember reading that if we did manage to kill the Dragon ( and i Doubt it ) that he Drops no loot in this patch and Mythic had to hand out the Loot in the USA to the main Guilds that Killed the Beast...And our Chances of getting anything off Goa are ZERO!!

3. And as for the Relic we have more than enough people to take Relics..

Regards Nicky Nook.

 

[old.NorME]

It is good to see that other ppl also want to do the dragon

I am in as always.

And I think we can do him!!

Edit: Will try to get all high levels in guild on this

 

[Matinex]

Thanks to all the people that show their interest in this, i think we can get something something going with this. One last request is if someone (2-3 people) are willing to help me organizing this EZ raid, i dont think i can do it all alone

Anyways the time would be this saturday 9PM CET and location too meet is Sheeroe Hills entrance (on the boarder).

For you guys who posted on this thread: try to bring all your high level guildmates to come, 45+ would be good, but support classes like druids/wardens/bards are ok with 40+.

Im sure it will be great fun

Mat

 

[Perplexed]

Is a lvl 40 ranger useless then? :>

I'd love to be there, even if it's just one of the "lower" groups tackling the knights and such.

Ahhh now there's incentive...I've got just over 48 hours to get from lvl 38 to lvl 40... think I'd better take a sicky off work tomorrow then

 

[Perplexed]

Muirob - where'd you go last night? Was quite looking forward to our little group

 

[old.Spanker]

Sounds like fun!! Shame I'm too low to go

 

[old.Cadwyr]

I dbout I can make that time bur I will post the details on my guild message board so those who are around can attend.

 

[old.NorME]

At that time I wont be able to attend either, but my guild have been notified both on news and on internal forums..

But i will get online as soon as I am back from the Cinema ( SW Episode 2).

I have no idea... <tries to remember lastnight>... hmm, nope, the nights are blurring into 1 long night, I have no recollection at all what I did all evening.

Maybe I should drink less?

 

[old.Mousah]

this happen today on prydwen/mid when they tryed the dragon,
107 ppl + some anon gathered to go and "kill" the dragon
40+ of them were lvl 50, so they thought they would have a chance....
they came started to hit it, got his helth down to 98% and then got wipetout....to all the hibs...good luck
althoe they did one misstake, they didnt kill the guards that are near him.
