Sign me up but here's a suggestion

Ill come, but first i suggest you move the start time to 6 as this raid takes ages and people will leave before the end. Secondly i suggest you organise it so that we kill the hardest bosses, with most hit points first etc, so that if people leave, we can still continue with the easy mobs. I went on a ml3 raid the other day led by soulfly and gladiator and we started at 7pm. It took us three hours to get ready to go, and to get into the temple to start the first level. ---I strongly suggest if you need to do ml3 you come on this raid, as these raids take a while and its hard to get a group for them!---

Oh and if you want some experienced help in guiding your raid, lemme know, as i'll only be too happy to help. Though I hate organising loot..

Raid Outcome : FAILURE

Thanks to all those who attended, without you the raid would not have happened. Thanks to Rambo for organising it. Thanks to those who were patient as it takes ages. I would like to say on the record that the single solitary reason for failure was that despite specific instructions, two members, Arauddry and Apollonas were incapable of following explicit instructions which had been repeated many times. As a result the group wiped out thus depriving many of completion of this quest, meaning that those who've done most of this quest and are helping the new people out, like me suffer doubly as we've spent almost 24 hours in this temple. Thanks guys, really appreciate it!! Howver Apollonas happens to be a 6 year old, so while i'm frustrated, i understand that 6 year olds have the propensity to do such things. As for arauddry I'm sure he/she didnt mean to cause our deaths, but i would be wary of inviting someone who cannot follow simple instructions onto my raids. In any case, i'm sure we'll manage to finish it tomorrow night.

Again thanks to those who helped me lead the raid. It was good fun in parts and we got some nice loot!

Thanks Atrius, you are without doubt one of the best raid leaders I have seen. I hope you join us tomorrow again. It was too bad we didn't finish it today and I guess it was a combination of people not reading and everyone being tired, one thing is sure atleast: I will be dead tired tomorrow at work.

I'm just wondering what happened to the two legendary weapon components that dropped off 3.9. Those two Cauldrons of Vivifying Water never made it as far as the lotto at the end of the road. Rambo says they were not given to him in the raid, so they are still sitting in someone's pack.

Was a good effort by the majority of people though.

just set a BG treasurer next time imo and you won't have missing loot ever again :touch:

They did try :)

For anyone who doesnt know use the following to set all BG loot to go to one person :-

/bg loot treasurer : puts the BG loot into treasure mode
/bg lootlevel 34 : any loot with a level of 34+ will be claimed, scrolls are 35
/bg treasurer xxxxx : specify the name of who gets the loot

I didnt hang around for the loot split, shame really as some nice things dropped, but it was 1.00am when we finaly died.

I did it, all of the time, but since I had a hard time getting a name of a treasurer some of the loot in the beginning might got lost, and when Rambo LD'd a couple of times (not your fault) the treasurer was free again.

I wasn't meant to be the BG leader anyway :/ just stuck from when I was doing a nine person Yoghurt raid.

i was loot treasurer after this loot droped, but even then i got lded 3 times and while misleath was bg leader did not put me as treasurer again... but as Atrius said, was a long long raid, everyone was tired, so its naturall many mistakes to happen. i hope today we do the rest of the parts faster.

Yeah, i was finding myself becoming quite short tempered last night - was a relaly long raid.

/salute to you tho Rambo and others,
It was a VERY long raid, with some uncertainty and many problems but you managed to keep us all together. I've been starting to lead some smaller raids for other quests / ML's and know how hard it can be.
