May 18th, 2009: The Fabled News Update:
It's been a while since our last update, so this is a rather large one.
One of our major activities has been to re-visit the Fabled Plane of Time, with better results this year.
We started the Fabled gods with our server's namesake, Saryrn. After that,
we moved to Fabled Terris Thule, which is pretty much the same fight
Those ladies were followed by the Zek Brothers, who we never got to during last year's Fabled.
In the next Phase, after clearing the armies, we took down Fabled Cazic Thule.
Then, Bertoxxulous, who seemed to become buggy and overpowered in later weeks.
Bert was actually more difficult than Fabled Rallos Zek the Warlord, whose new script used old adds.
Next up was Fabled Inny, and he's no slouch, but he died all the same.
Fabled Quarm was as large as ever, and his AE's were just as nasty. So, we had to kill him quickly.
In addition to the normal Fabled events, we've been competing in the weekly Living Legacy competition.
Some of them are based on how long the raid survives, others on how quickly the target dies.
The Avatar of Despair was an event in the Arena which was time-based and featured AE's that stripped buffs.
Our favorite Legacy event by far, however, was 'Dragons, Dragons, Dragons!' Some of us got to
see some cool old places and kill dragons we hadn't killed before. That's the original Sleeper, above.
The basic premise of the event was to run through and kill as many dragons as possible in three hours.
We got all the way to Lethar without so much as a hiccup, and that's when things slowed down a bit.
By the time we arrived at the Broodmother in Crystallos, we didn't have much time left to engage her.
Still, 18 events completed out of 20 isn't bad, and makes for an entertaining, furiously-paced evening.
Of course, we also visited other targets of opportunity around Norrath, such as RZTW in Tactics, Agnarr in BoT,
and our normal gear-farming targets. Next up, we're re-flagging newer members for an upcoming MMM run.
RECRUITMENT:
Shards of Time is currently recruiting skilled players of Most classes, but we specifically need Bards, Druids, Necromancers, Shaman, and Wizards.
If you think you may be interested, please feel free to submit an application. If your class isn't listed, it doesn't mean you can't apply, we're just not actively looking for more. We are, of course, still accepting exceptional players from every class.
