Yesterdays attempted retake of Caer Benowyc..

[Israfael]

First of all, I'd like to say thanks to everyone that helped us on the attempted retake, both the first and second attempts. We worked very hard and well, and we were SO close, I think we would have had it if it wasn't for the bugged archers.

It's nice to see the non level 50s banding together, and fighting for the realm.

Apologies for my bad direction the second time getting there, I didn't have the time to check out maps

Also, thank you all for listening to me. It was my first time leading a raid, and I think it went very very well.



Nice job all. Let's finish it another day

Yea i agree with Isra, was well pulled off. God even the NPC hib archers are exploiting bugs now

next we'll see the keep lord hiding in the walls mezzing peeps outside

I was suprised to see some many con blues and greens around me, but it went well i thought, we where maybe a little under powered and them damn NPC Rangers where ticking me off big time, i died on the battlements once i made it inside, was attacking one ranger when about 3 others hit me with arrows...gits.

So funny when we all got lost on the way, that was like a 45minute run and the battle lasted about 15minutes.

But still good action

yeah Karam, and if they could post here they would also be laughing at you.

 

[Vortigern Wolf]

Think I have to take some of the blame for getting lost on the second attempt. Should have gone East instead of West.

Still it was funny when we all followed that guy who said "Why are you all following me, I am here to pick up my grave and do some xping"

Still it was very enjoyable and good fun.

Will say though, what should we be doing after entering the keep. Should we be taking out the guards and working our way to the top, or should we just charge the keep commander?

You're supposed to stand around and wait for hibbies to come and claim your rp's

 

[old.davidlqs]

Thats right Vort - at our level we are at best a distraction from the real heavy hitters. Never mind our day will come.

Well Anastasia it is thanks to you that we even got to the keep, after following that other fella, nice pathfinding and well avoiding the mobs, and the ones we did run into where no bother.

Well done guys

I must admit I was a bit surprised when I arrived at the Ellyl's to collect my grave and rejoin my group to find a horde of peeps had followed me.

Nice of you guys to escort me though

 

[Israfael]

Just out of interest, did anyone report the bugged archers through rightnow? If not, I'll do it.

 

[Armolas]

what bug was that - all archers in all keeps can always shoot you with no LoS, it is just part of keep taking, I doubt if it will ever be fixed.

If you get hit and you are a non shield user just run down the hill until you are out of range and they will pick another target.

 

[Israfael]

No, the bug where we couldn't hit them in Melee no matter how close we were It's how come our tanks got peppered when they were trying to take the keep lord down.

I know the archers can normally shoot through walls

 

[Tank Init]

we had the same bug when we took the keep couldnt hit your dam npc archers either
