Master Level Raids - 9(Tuesday 30th) - 10(Thursday 1st)

[Escape]

The big ones this week and hopefully the last!
11 Groups came through last week's ML8 raid and alot of them are asking for ML9 already. Anyone who needs MLxp - Use the next couple of days to farm it! - And keep on going until you have 9.11 completed!


ML9 Tuesday - 18:30(GMT) Aerus Haven

You need : 9.2
- You cannot enter Aerus City unless you're ML8

Anyone wanting to do this on Monday, we can meet at 19:00 (Aerus Haven) and head on to the city!



ML10 Thursday - 19:30(GMT) Aerus Haven

You need : patience
- You cannot enter Celestius unless you're ML9


Why Aerus Haven? It's as good as any other meeting point and probably the least used of the Havens.
The ML10 portal spawns at different locations. So there will be scouts at the known locations and once the portal is found, we beam-up into outer space oO

 

[Escape]

Just to clarify, the times above are in UK time, BST = CET+1
Not GMT



+ The ML9.2 boss takes some time to kill with 1fg and can take a while to respawn. I'd recommend anyone who needs this step to meet us on Monday(19:00 BST) and not to leave it till Tuesday's raid as there's no guarentee we will do it more than once!

 

[Smurflord]

Count me in. Was out getting drunk all weekend, so missed the last ML9 raid

 

[Damnnationx]

(1.68 patch, Feb 19, 2004) " so ca nit not be done asa bg?
just curious

 

[Yussef]

This is 1.67 :|

 

[Duzzy]

Nerf, I want another ml8 raid, missed that one

 

[Uberlama]

I'll be there and hope Katri wont be bugged again :/

 

[Damnnationx]

hah ta yussef i can never remember what patch we running or trying to run on

 

[Aldrian]

Bleh, missed the last ml8(there's been only one so far?) raid so cant come to these :|

 

[Damnnationx]

im guessing that time is 1900 gmt witch is actualy now and nobody here?
im thinking either my time zone is wrong or hehe escape has not put his clock forward and hour


LOL as i alt tab back into game what do i see /b i have bg lol by seksual my bad in thinking peopel hadnt set clocks forward

 

[Krissy]

Seksual /b 'd in Aerus Haven at the correct time, and w8ed around, but very few ppl were there, no tanks etc.

 

[Escape]

Not many need this encounter now and we'll need to do 9.2 on the raid anyway... so will get one group credit then. If more than a fg needs it, then those who turned up today get priority! And thanks to Pius for being the only one who came to help those without this encounter


The only people on Thursday's ML10 raid, will be on ML9 tonight.
So if everything goes to plan with ML9, there's a possibility of ML10 straight after.... this all depends on a few factors of course. If we drop the chicken in good time and find the portal for Celestius, I see no reason to wait until Thursday. This is only a possibility so don't count on it to happen, but come prepared anyway!

Cap MLxp for 9.11 before the raid
Also arrive on time at ~18:15 so we can balance groups and leave by 18:30(BST)
Prepare for a longer raid, maybe untill Midnight(BST) - Will need everyone to stay focused so prepare an overdose of caffine or whichever stimulant you use oO

Thanks to the TLW members last night , it looks like they sussed the 9.2 mob - He doesnt have a set number of insta heals, but seams to react if any heal effect goes off near him.

Keep your clerics at the back
Done use any heal fields
Ask your paladins not to chant heal

The b1tch dropped pretty quickly again

 

[Damnnationx]

yehh think there was only 4 of us that even showed for 9.2 last night bit odd i thought. Think everyone went on the 6.96.10 raid or waited for it. Maybe we have better luck tonight lets hope...

 

[Escape]

Aerus City has fallen and now we need to conquer Celestius.

About 20 of us went there late last night. The first boss isn't a problem... but then comes Scorpius :x

Some things I noted: His disease can be cured on everyone, so clerics will need to hit group-cure-disease everytime someone is infected. The infected person(s) cannot always run away as there's a snare effect too.

Scorpius really hates big heals, so it's hard to control his agro. Just stick to small heals and if your target dies, it's no problem. Better to let a couple of tanks die and res them +cure ressick. If a cleric dies, everyone in the group looses buffs which is worse.

Keep everyone close by and set the fight by the bubble.


Hopefully we'll have twice the number on Thursday, so should go easier. We killl him and Draco is ours!

Cant wait - thanks for aranging these Seksual

Should be home between 17:30 and 18:30 - will start looking for the portal as soon as I log in, if otheres are around in the day and happen to see it - posting its location here would be usefull, assuming it doesnt shift around too fast.

 

[Escape]

Tuesday night it was by Volcanus Haven
Wednesday evening it was at the same place
Just checked again now but it's no longer there :x

I'm guessing it stays at the same spot for at least a few hours, maybe a whole day.
I should be on by 18:00 and will start looking for it, so BG will be open from then for anyone who wants to join the search.

Remember, you cannot see the portal during the day(06:00 -> 20:00), but you will hear a low rumbling sound if you run through it. The rumbling is continous, so stay there until night-time and you should see a blue glow.


We'll need to leave from Aerus Haven at 19:30(BST) at the latest. So I'd recommend everyone is in the BG by 19:15 and groups etc balanced by then


P.S. At this stage, your /master window should be blank
