ok, I've been hellishly busy with work this week - I didn't even know there WAS an update!  Can anyone give me a brief run-down of what's happened? And when did it happen?  Maybe it didn't hit the Euro servers (which are in the US) yet. <div></div>

[Jay]

<DIV>We're taking cover not so much because of the Live Update (on Wednesday) but b/c there are raging mobs demanding our blood outside. AKA we got mentioned on another forum and everyone flipped out and started tearing each other to pieces. It wasn't pretty - rangers attacking rangers, wizards dropping Ice Comets, mass hysteria. I'm hiding as much from the sad conduct of fellow rangers as I am from rampaging wizardry. <img src="/smilies/69934afc394145350659cd7add244ca9.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV><crawls under the bed></DIV>

After getting riled up and reading said posts, I figured I better confine myself to this thread before I popped off and posted something I might regret. Have some hot chocolate with us... <div></div>

[Mentla]

Can anyone point me in the right direction to one of these posts? <div></div>

[Fireshad]

<DIV>Sorry I cant.  I will not let someone go to the wolves.  By the way, anyone stock up on red wine.  Got a nice hog with my bow before I came.  I think its hog and wine for dinner.</DIV>

<P>I come in and sit down.  Exhausted and somewhat depressed.   Why?   Cause Khaly is shutting down the scouts sanctuary.  It was where I used to cuddle by the fire, but its going away   <img src="/smilies/9d71f0541cff0a302a0309c5079e8dee.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></P> <P>I saw a wizzie in the bathroom earlier.  He didn't wash his hands.</P> <P> </P>

That bites <img src="/smilies/9d71f0541cff0a302a0309c5079e8dee.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /> That's a really great site. Any explanation why? <div></div>

[Mentla]

Grouped with a wizzy on the weekend and raided with 2 of them.  One of them actualy said - and I quote - "lol, no way I should be out DPSing a Ranger like this!" Of course, he was 2 levels above me and I was secretly holding back as I was running out of arrows (not my fault, only logged on to craft and ended up raiding/grouping for 13 hours!!) but he wasn't to know that! Fact is, a wizzy who knows what he is doing - as these guys did - can do OBSCENE amounts of damage, and they are more than welcome in my group anyday! Sorry if I annoyed anyone on the Butcherblock channel over the weekend.  If I saw anyone mention doing anything good I did tend to say "gratz, don't tell the wizzys" a few times.....  :p <div></div>

<span><blockquote><hr>Sulas wrote::: hands Mentla a sandwich :: So...

[Jay]

<P>Wow Zho... that's beyond frustrating. On Darathar nonetheless. If it's any consolation, you're not alone - I've been hearing stories about Darathar being bugged for a while now. I just hope he's fixed before we get to Deception...</P> <P>My weekend was alright, raided Vyr'drais to get the last of the guildies started on Speak a Dragon on Friday, did some shopping for Kae (Improved Surveil Adept 1, Archer's Frenzy Adept III, new bags and boxes for his inventory, new +STR hex doll) on Saturday. Had the good fortune to win a 56 Shadowknight Master 1 in a Roost run late Saturday night, too. No SK's in the guild, so I'm hoping to sell that one for some decent plat. I harvested another cobalt and a scaled pelt (given to my lovely monk companion) so the rares were kind to me too. Also did some shopping for my brother's toon and outfitted him with new jewelry and some bigger bags. I got him to replace a 4-slot newbie bag with a 28-slot sandalwood strongbox (he didn't know you could carry boxes) and he just flipped out and went harvesting immediately.  <img src="/smilies/69934afc394145350659cd7add244ca9.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></P>

I had a fairly quiet weekend both in- and out of game.  Wrapped up the Xmas shopping, dinged 48 woodworker, chipped away at a few quests.  Now I gotta run out and replenish supplies. Thanks for asking. <div></div>

[coltla]

My weekend was awesome. I won a master,the first I've ever won (not a ranger spell :smileysad: Guardian spell and I gave it to a guildie). The was also one other thing that happened, which I was pretty proud of, <A href="http://eqiiforums.station.sony.com/eq2/board/message?board.id=116&message.id=15323" target=_blank>This!</A>.

Nice job man, congratulations!! I've been wanting a Tunarian title myself, but I just can't handle the mind-numbing drudgery of all those writs for just one faction... <img src="/smilies/69934afc394145350659cd7add244ca9.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />
