Diamond District Re-Opened For Business

[heartbrand]

I logged on this morning, as I'm apt to do, to farm some diamonds for the needy and poor of Norrath. As usual, there was some Azrael scum in my Diamond District attempting to farm some of their own as well. Unfortunately for them I consulted with the Diamond Guild of Scholarly Gentlemen and we agreed that would be a violation of cartel law. I quickly took to the task of securing the District via any means necessary, I knew killshots here against such odds would be hard to come by, but a senior member of the Diamond Guild such as myself, and Emperor of this Box, knew that there's more than one way to skin a cat.

I saw the Azrael invaders attempting to kill MY scarabs which hold my precious diamonds. Like any good law abiding citizen, I quickly feared their pet. I expected to have to stun or mez the chanter as he or his group would attempt to pel the fear. Much to my surprise no one did, they all ran to cover to the temple and poor Jezibell was rooted as mobs wailed on her and she died. RIP.

After fearing Madude's pet they all were forced to gate outside. They were unprepared however. TT is my forest, it is my homeland, I am quite familiar with these streets that lead to my sacred diamond district. Morcrist was caught off guard...

Boom... He tried to flee back into the Diamond District but was stopped short. Sorry pal. With Azrael scattered, Jezibel having now thrown her modem against a wall, Morcrist immediately doing the same, I went inside where I engaged Bangan. He was forced to gate @ 10% without getting a single offensive spell off against me. Unfortunately, Diamond District surveillance cameras were down during this engagement, but his modem has yet to recover according to sources. I then noticed that there was one last invader hiding away, Miria. This person you may recall is a known IP Exploiter who poofs @ the first sign of being dirtnapped. I wasn't going to allow that to happen. I saw him fleeing for TT from my beloved home, so I made sure to break his invis and root him...

Diamond District is clear again and safe.

was wondering what the diamond district was. now i know. as you can see lust for precious gems can only lead down a path of darkness.

A++ Job HB. Keeping the diamonds safe from these bluebie scum. You would think they knew this was a PvP server. I'm sure they will cry about how a 60 VP geared Enchanter is overpowered compared to 5 people.

At least include the "You have slain" message, I mean I get you coined Morcrist but still. Also the last screenshot is literally just a picture of a corpse, not sure what story that tells.

Overall good effort, 3/10 for coining on Morcrist. Pictures don't tell enough story. Please see Huggies recent griefing of Tyrant/Boner for pointers on storyboards.

Amelinda used to ban people for fearing pets lol. What a fool she was.

It's harder to avoid than it sounds, esp if you're caught mid pull or fight.

Think you can still pet get lost it while its feared though, not sure how it'd work here.
If it's a charmed pet... well... you've got a new friend.

Great area to farm here and contest tho. Wish seb keys were body bound for maximum immersion.

We fought in Seb, in the snow, uphill both ways back in the day-o.

Unfortunately, I will admit, Diamond District surveillance cameras missed quite a bit of the action as it was unfolding, and while there is some written documentation such as:

[Wed Jan 23 11:05:30 2013] Insufficient Mana to cast this spell!

[Wed Jan 23 11:05:32 2013] Bangan regains concentration and continues casting.
[Wed Jan 23 11:05:32 2013] Bangan fades away.

of Bangan fleeing the scene and others, the only thing you really need to know is this:
