Title: To dream the impossible dream...
Post by: Big Gulp on February 21, 2006, 03:51:45 PM
Okay, it's been attempted many, many times.  I'm going to attempt it again.

I wanted to set up a guild made up of folks from these boards, Corpnews, etc.  Basically all the ex-Lummies, folks who've joined in since those days, and lurkers.  It basically comes down to me getting sick of guilds I don't really like, pickup groups, and other horseshit.  I just want a no pressure guild of people I somewhat know and can argue with.  To facilitate the arguments, I've also got a Vent server already to go.

I'm setting up on Twisting Nether, the RP/PVP server.  I chose it mainly because I'm tired of vanilla PvE, and the roleplay server because those tend to cut down on the retards.  I've already played mainly Alliance, so I figured we'd go Horde 4 Life mah homies this time around.  Let me know if you're interested, or just look for Mustapha when you're in-game.

You could do Emerald Dream.  Horde side.  PVP-RP.  We had a guild there when it opened.  So maybe you could get some already developed characters from here, right away.

I posted my reply over on Corp, but I'm definately down with that.  Emerald Dream or Twisting Nether is fine, I don't care which.  As long as it's not Maelstrom, as I already have a high level Alliance character (you can't make characters from both sides on a pvp server).

If we can get a really nice sized group going, that would be awesome.

The thing is, I wanted us to pretty much get a fresh start.  When new people join the guild and they see half the people hopelessly beyond their level range it gets pretty damned discouraging.

Post by: Big Gulp on February 21, 2006, 05:28:06 PM
Alrighty, got the guild charter all ready to go. Whenever you guys feel like dropping in, just shoot Mustapha a tell and I'll have you sign off on it. I just plugged in the name "The Diaspora" because it's somewhat fitting, but we change that if you guys have any objections or suggestions.

My current guild basically all started together, has only recruited people in the same level range, has stayed at the x9 of the range (for bg reasons) until everyone can advance and has been one of the most successful guilds I've ever seen.  If you can talk people into doing that I think you'll have much success..

I know you'll be heartbroken, but I'm not grinding up again.. having too much fun in the endgame right now as it is.. :)

Yea I'm not starting again. Way too deep into endgame to reroll now.

Not that I've ever been in an f13 guild. :X

If this is on emerald dream, I've got a shaman on there that I play pretty exlusively.

Edit: name is "paxx" also have a <20 warlock that I'm going to start playing to play some lowbie WSG funtimes "Phobe".

Me and a friend of mine recently started alts on Twisting Nether, we decided to try alliance just because we already have played Horde a bunch. So if you go alliance on TN, you can count the two of us in. If you go horde, well, I can at least kill you guys.

Im playing Druid, and my friend is playing Warrior.

Ohh no, he's going to moonfire spam you if you play horde! :p

I would recommend you start it up on Emerald Dream, as we had an f13.net guild there about five months ago and most of the old people will probably return if it gets started up.  I have a 30 priest and can spend most of my time helping people get started out until they catch up.

Ah what the heck - some friends are looking to try wow out so maybe ill do a bit again. Warning - have 2 60's and not sure i can do the raid thing but anyway, i'll start up on TN as horde...


Title: Re: To dream the impossible dream...
Post by: MrHat on February 23, 2006, 10:00:48 AM
I'm a bit confused, so instead of getting one cohesive guild, we've got horde and alliance on TN and some horde on Emerald Dream?


Title: Re: To dream the impossible dream...

Damn, now I want to scrap my druid, and go back to my priest, after seeing the new changes.

It's the most worthless thing I've ever seen.. all it manages to do is bring the wrath of Cevik against you, and that's not typically something you want.. hence the sarcastic "ohh no, he's going to moonfire spam you", because even though it's  a worthless stupid strategy.. it's still what every damned druid in the world does as I /laugh and kill them..


Title: Re: To dream the impossible dream...
Post by: MrHat on February 23, 2006, 03:05:07 PM
Grouped with a 50 druid in Maraudon last night.  He was moonkin and did quite a bit of damage, especially when we got to the AoE part.

Although, we also had a ghetto hunter (some crazy tri-brid), and a holy priest, a protection warrior.  Never seen that group before.


Title: Re: To dream the impossible dream...
Post by: cevik on February 23, 2006, 03:51:49 PM
Yeah, I keep hearing about these phantom druids that swoop in from the night and do awesome damage.

Then the only thing I see is some owlbear run up to me in a BG and spam moonfire until he realizes he's not going to survive, switch into cat form, run 5 steps away, then die from my dots.. *shrug*..

You're almost right... BWL/AQ equipped moonkin can do some decent damage... 900 crit moonfire ~70% the time and ~2.5-3k starfire crit ~30% of the time. Both added together as one hit since you chain the instant moonfire on the starfire. Starfire+Moonfire+Wrath+Wrath+Wrath is most people's life bar. The problem is to be an effective moonkin you need to be tricked out in spell damage gear, with all the spell power enchants, and the ephemeral and zandalar talismans. My ex-roommate is specc'd moonkin and he's got half the stormrage set and is looking to get the AQ set. Once people start to have the AQ set, which is built specifically for a balance druid, that's when druids will actually be able to match (almost!) a mage's damage.

If you're in blues and greens, and you try and go balance, you might as well lie down and get ready to be deep fried like the turkey you are.

Title: Re: To dream the impossible dream...
Post by: Morfiend on February 28, 2006, 04:24:36 PM
Well, my main is on Detheroc, in a BWL guild horde side. I have also been playing alts on Twisting Nether, alliance side. I might be persuaded to change servers to try out alliance again if there was a brand new PVP(RP?) server. I would love to catass to 60, and try to get rank 14 before there was much competition.

I love me some new servers, i'd be open to starting an alliance warlock on one and catassing with you.  I just catassed 75k honor at L53 and only advanced half a level in First Sergeant.

Edit: Shitty thing about new servers is that they've opened them for mainly transfer purposes.  So you wouldn't be able to rank up very quickly on them.  How far along are you guys on TN?


Title: Re: To dream the impossible dream...
Post by: Morfiend on March 01, 2006, 12:35:56 AM
Far along as characters or as server life?

The server is the newest of the RP-PVP servers. So maybe 3 months old. I have seen a few people running around in Rank 13 puples. But there are a ton of people leveling. So it seems pretty new still, but not as new as to give a major advantage if we leveled fast.

As far as characters, I have a paladin to almost lvl 20. A rl friend of mine is lvl17 warrior, and a guy from my detheroc guild just rolled a paladin also, he is lvl9. But I dont know if he will really play much. Right now im having fun with all the new alliance quests and zones and stuff. We will see how long it holds my attention.

*Edit* Character name is Morvant if you come looking.


Title: Re: To dream the impossible dream...
Post by: MrHat on March 01, 2006, 08:26:06 AM
Bah, I'll wait till something newer comes out (I could probably get a warlock to 20 in one sitting if I really tried).


Title: Re: To dream the impossible dream...
Post by: MisterNoisy on March 01, 2006, 12:09:24 PM
look for Mustapha when you're in-game.

Shot in the dark, but are you playing a toon by the same name on Draenor?

Today at 12:00 PM PST, we will be opening four new realms for all players to start fresh adventures in Azeroth! Players will be able to create new characters immediately with a choice of three realm types: PvP, PvE and RP.

    * Duskwood - PvE
    * Zuluhed - PvP
    * Anetheron - PvP
    * Steamwheedle Cartel - RP PvE

Just a heads up, I'll probably roll a warlock on one of the PvP servers, horde unless someone convinces me otherwise.

Im a little burnt out on WoW right now, and im having a great time learning EVE. Not sure how long it will last me, but so far its like a breath of fresh air to me. It really requires thinking, not just clicking.

I will probably wait till they release a new RP-PVP server to make a new guy. If I do.

So...umm....I decided to roll on ED again. Troll Rogue inherits old toon's gold. Name is Rojin.

If any of you logs in even once in a while, put me on your friend's list. Better yet, invite me to Severence.

No, scratch that: Give me the power.

[EDIT] How many guild leaders were there anyways? Just Shockeye?

There can be only one.

It was Shock last I'd heard, yes.


Title: Re: To dream the impossible dream...
Post by: Righ on June 15, 2006, 11:22:17 AM
Except he wasn't called Shockeye, because that was my fruity little pink haired Gnome rogue. Nobody (not least I) stuck around long enough for my plan of PK movies to come to fruition. I just deleted him last night to roll an Orc.


Title: Re: To dream the impossible dream...
Post by: stray on June 15, 2006, 11:44:41 AM
So you deleted and made an Orc on ED, or you deleted in order to make space for an Orc elsewhere?

Post by: Righ on June 15, 2006, 12:33:33 PM
An Orc on ED - Toizo - I decided to follow your lead and make a rogue with a silly Japanese name.

I too am part of the one-time ED guild diaspora.

Hordeside:

Geiss 45 Orc Hunter
Griefing 22 UD Rogue
Fogcatcher 22 Cow Druid


Tragny, Strazos, Hat, myself and a few others used to roll around together pretty consistantly, was pretty fun.  Send me an IM or post up here or whatever with what you all would like to do, or need help with.  I have been rolling alts on various servers just passing time, since playing solo gets get O L D.


PS - Damnit I was the one and only member of Severance for awhile, but I think Tragny or someone persuaded me into disbanding the ol' wreck and try and join some other goober guild on server that they jumped ship to.  So close to being the shotcaller.



Title: Re: To dream the impossible dream...
Post by: stray on June 16, 2006, 01:00:55 AM
Mad Lootaz

We need more. Roll a rogue. It's all rogue. And give him or her a silly Japanese name while you're at it.


[EDIT] As far as I know, I'm not serious.

P.S.

Thanks for the help again, Flood

Umm...Sure. Righ probably needs it more than I do at the moment though. Or you could split it.

If you're still subbed and feel like logging in, then play with us. We're approaching your level.

I popped in but did not see you online, Stray.  I'll toss you and Righ 100 gold to split.  Just let me know what a good time to meet you will be (I can meet up tonight).  Also, I can run you guys through SFK a few times to get you shiny blues.  The type of drops that can last 20+ levels before needing replaced. 

Man, the graphics sure are pretty, especially after playing UO for a few weeks.  When I return to Diku I may have to do WoW.  Hopefully they fix BG's by then!

Wow, 100g. That's very cool of you. You should probably keep some of that just in case you come back or make an alt though.

Righ and I were talking about getting our cooking up soon (for tea), and that got me thinking that I should just dabble around with crafting a bit and slow down at 19 once I hit it. At least then, we could make a temporary twink guild or something. Then we could all BG for a little PvP fun. This way an F13 guild can succeed without everyone getting burned out too fast.

My guy is level 57, with oodles of herbalism, maxxed cooking, and all that good stuff.  I am keeping some gold for my eventual return.  My main game is UO (we are having fun!), but I love running SFK.  You guys figure out a good time and run it by me, and I will run you through it.  All you need to do is loot.  Its fun!

Post by: stray on June 16, 2006, 11:28:20 AM
That'd be cool, man. I'm going to log in later and see if there are any prereqs for some of the SFK quests. I remember as an undead, there were some cool quest rewards.


Also, what might even be better (gearwise) is killing Van Cleef and Co. a dozen times. If I could get a full Defias set, that'd be sweet  :-P

Whatever you want.  But I only have x amount of time to give though, due to RL complications.  SFK has some kicking rad quests.

There are no prereqs for the three Horde SFK quests.  You can get two at the Sepulcher, and one in Undercity (by the stairs of one of those bridges that traverse the green slime ring at the bottom of Undercity).

Book of Ur, Lost Deathstalkers, and Arugal must die!  I think are the three.  You can get them all at level 18, might be able to get Book of Ur earlier.  I have a lot of alts...

Thanks Cheddar. We should be ready for SFK 'soon'. :)

Deathiscommi
Minihunter
Slylikebear
Wifeofconads
Bunnydeath
Monkeybite
Ufugger
Elffkilla
Ipconfig
Prophalactic

That's right. Good guess. :)

I'll probably wait for the expansion before I come back since I'll probably start a new character to see any new lower level content being added in.  Don't want to burn myself out on the game again before then since I've only recently wanted to start playing again.

Post by: stray on June 17, 2006, 01:56:28 PM
Me and Righ's new rogues are 15, but I've been PM'ing him about the new servers that just came out this morning. I've been dabbling around and decided to roll Alliance on Lethon (same name, same class, different race -- "Rojin" - Human Rogue). Not sure if I'll stay, but this might be a cool thing. Fresh start, etc. (apparently, Lethon is on the new hardware/db config too, if that matters).

[edit]

Send a tell to Rojin or Nickers (Righ) if you want to play Alliance/Lethon

I have pressure RL to return to ED.  This may or may not happen.  Can we get a sound off on who (if) anyone still plays this server, and what levels?


Title: Re: To dream the impossible dream...
Post by: Righ on June 17, 2006, 07:35:48 PM
I have a level 15 orc rogue (Toizo) on ED. I played an hour or so on Lethon, but I'm not convinced yet. Signe is marginally interested in playing some WoW with us, but isn't taken by the idea of a PvP server.

Its WoW.  Besides, if I return you will have a pet 57 Rogue with you guys.  I cannot imagine how much higher the "Easy" lever gets.  Plus my buddy Ulose (47 warrior I think) and his brother a ??? Shaman.  So, yeah.  Tell her to stop being a woman and drop a sack.


Title: Re: To dream the impossible dream...
Post by: Velorath on June 17, 2006, 07:51:06 PM
Yeah, really you can level up to 20 pretty safely, and as long as you don't go to Hillsbrad or STV, you can get a lot of quests done without too much problem.  Plus you're safe in the instances as well.  I've never been a big PVPer, but I had fun running with MrHat and Palehorn doing some PVP outside the BG's every so often.  Fuck, I'll probably end up reinstalling tonight.  Think my Hunter Kelthoss on ED was somewhere in his early to mid-50's, and I tend to be pretty good at making cash (think I've got somewhere between 200-300g on him right now).


Title: Re: To dream the impossible dream...

Hmm...

So no Lethon server then, eh?

Whereever we can get the most people at is cool with me. Velorath, if you decide to reinstall, see if you have guild invite powers in Severence. That way we can have a centralized place to communicate before we think of something else.

As far as I know, Severence is dead.  If needed I can start a new guild.  Problem is I will not be home until later tomorrow night.  Want me to start it now and get you guys admin rights? (not, this does not guarantee I will be playing!)

Totally cheesy, and probably taken, but for the server the name The Nightmare would be appropriate (the corrupt force in the Emerald Dream).

Hmm...

So no Lethon server then, eh?

I wouldn't mind having some alliance characters there for a change of pace every once in a while.

Something's bugged with my guild charter. Got 9 sigs, but it won't let me register it for some reason. One of you should make a new one, and call it Bat Country.

I'm game for a pvp server.  I played a normal server and hated it.

Got a mage on Lethon (Merrilea) and I guess I'll make something on ED!  Mooooooooooo.

Cool, you disappeared earlier on the Priest. Thought you quit.

We're having problems making a guild on ED atm. For some reason, I can't register a charter. I think I'm bugged. I think Flood is going to try it next.

Try ED. I'd like to play Lethon, but it seems everyone else is better off here.

I'll be in a few. Will give you some starting gold.

I'm going to roll an Alliance alt on Lethon, but I have no idea what class yet.  Warrior or Pally maybe.  Always liked the Alliance starting areas so much more.

Righ was pointing out last night how it's pretty much the entire Western Continent in general that stinks. The Elf areas suck just as much as the Barrens, and the Undead areas are done just as well as the Dwarf or Human areas.

Anyways...I've never taken an Aliance character further than the Deadmines and Red Ridge level. I wouldn't mind seeing more. Right now I'm level 10, and off to Westfall. I'll hold up a bit for you though.

The Troll is 16, and still in the Barrens. The only reason I feel like playing him is that Trolls have a lot style -- Looking it all over though, it would seem that Trolls make the worst possible race for a Rogue.

Actually ive heard of several epicced out rogues who rerolled from troll to pick undead.  Apparently they felt no amount of gear could make up for the difference will of the forsaken makes for a rogue.  Priest and warlocks are our toughest match ups, being undead helps tremendously.

Post by: Righ on June 18, 2006, 02:47:43 PM
That relates to yesterday, before WotF was nerfed from godly to good, and Trolls were buffed from worthless to good. 10 energy for a 30% speed increase to attacks for 10s is nice. Now that WotF is 5s, its trivial to cast fear twice. Still a nice racial, however - just no longer godly.


Title: Re: To dream the impossible dream...
Post by: stray on June 18, 2006, 03:01:29 PM
WotF is (was?) a given, but I'm really comparing the strengths of an Orc to a Troll. Orcs are an all around kickass race. Bloodrage and Chance to Resist stuns are much more appealing than Beserk and..... +Throwing. Regen isn't all that great, seeing that there isn't any viable way to enhance it. +Bows isn't that useful for a Rogue either. +5% to beast damage only goes so far.

Even Dwarves make better Rogues than a Troll.

I'm not too concerned though. They look cool.

I've got a human Warrior (using my somewhat standard name Kelthoss) on Lethon leveled up to 9 so far.  Have to take a break for a while.  Forgot what a pain it is when a new server opens and all the newbie areas are crowed as fuck.

My hunter on ED is 54.  I'll be more than happy to kick down some gold to anyone starting a new character on the server.

As far as I know, Severence is dead.  If needed I can start a new guild.  Problem is I will not be home until later tomorrow night.  Want me to start it now and get you guys admin rights? (not, this does not guarantee I will be playing!)

Severence isn't dead, but is as-good-as.  The only people with invite powers in the guild are Foozle, Shadebone (Both Shockeye) and Haemish.  Haemish has the guild leader position as well, but it's easy enough for any officer to petition and get the charter turned over to them, i've seen it done on PvE servers before.  Shock also logged in sometime in the last day.

You all also got me to think about rejoining for about 5 mins.  Then when I logged into the server and saw the world defense spam and remembered that I'd be playing alone since I'm the only EST-zone person.. I decided against it.   :-D

Not sure how, but I have invite powers on ED - Severence with Malurg.  He's not particularly high ranked (Condemned), so a lot of folks have invite powers as well.

Now... those that have been on in the past few months, just you (Merusk) and Strazos.  But you DO have the power to invite.  I do.

Just an update.

*Sorry Toizo and Rojin I got assaulted by my ex for a huge "our relationship" convo, so sorry again for going poof the other evening.*

I have been helping the guys a bit on ED with a small amount of gold, and some healing etc.  I have a 45 Hunter with decent LW, and a 22 Rogue, and a 22 Druid.  I think the reason ED keeps getting thrown into the vote bin is that a few different people have some resources there that make it easier to level up alts.

If we could all decide that server XYZ was THE server then I would go wherever.  I have played both Alliance and Horde toons to mid/high levels on PvP servers and don't think that either really has a glaring advantage in levelling or PvP other than maybe Undead for WotF. 

So either side is fine, but I just don't want to start (or restart) on a server and then have 3/4th's of the people that were gung-ho for a new server to be stricken with MMO ADD and bail.  If we are just going to play and fuck around for fun then we should probably just stay on ED where we have some resources. (IMHO)  Although I too hear the sirens call of a "fresh server".


P.S - Wherever we land we could use the help of F13 folks logging on to sign our charter, even if you have to make a level 1 junk toon to do it.  We (lol the 3 of us) keep wasting gold on signature bribes only to have the guild creation system five hole us.  If we could get some "community" help that would be a lot more pratical.



Title: Re: To dream the impossible dream...
Post by: Velorath on June 18, 2006, 06:38:00 PM
I think we've pretty much decided that ED is THE server, some of us are just messing around with alts on another server.

If the population of Lethon cools down during the week like I think it will, then this character might start outleveling the troll.

I haven't played since sometime late last year so I had to go back and read all the patch notes to try to figure out what had been changed and added since then.  Also been thinking about respeccing my Hunter out of BM, and I've been going through my bank trying to remember if I was holding on to some of the stuff in there for a reason.

Is that Burning Region on ED?  I made an undead character just for that guild and signed up but the guild whatchamahootie didn't work.  I'll do it again, though, because I will then be an Itchyrash in your Burning Region.  I wonder how long my character's name will last on an RP server.


Title: Re: To dream the impossible dream...

We were having a decent time last night clipping along through quests and me being Faerie Fire/healbot Cow, but again my ex called crying and we had to have a big talk so I bailed on the guys like the PW wank that I am.  :lol:

Me and Righ hit 19. Got my engineering maxed, got my tea. Some decent armor. Just need some weapons now (we're both banging away with green level 15's). I/We could wait for Xan, then we'd all be ready for WC and SFK.

Got my other Rogue on Lethon to 13. Still pretty crowded in Westfall (I take back my "It'll get better once the weekend's gone" statement. I forgot that school's out).

Phyllis the undead priest is level 16.  Almost big enough to play with you guys, if you don't play all night and if I do play all day tomorrow.

Signe, I made a mage troll that I parked in the inn in Razor Hill so she can get some rested time to xp up on.  I might also make some kind of a little BG rogue, I don't know.  Thinking orc for that one.
