Just how much of a "big deal" was Fires of Heaven back in the day?

There were several guilds of note i.e AL, IV, Da'Kor, but FoH was the top during their prime. They where the server firsts in everything pre-luclin for the most part.

I believe the issues really turned bad when the game developers let these guilds have to much say on what needs to be fixed and changed. They got exclusive beta testing of the new content/expansions along EQ2.

If I remember correctly they got exclusive beta invites to SWG,WoW and a couple of other games around that time.

If you truly want to know who the top guilds of the past were. Check out the loot pictures on Allakahzam for Planes, VP, Sleepers, Vulak loots.. FoH or AL on pretty much all of them..

Server first is big, world first is much larger...

Hoshkar & His Drops
Yes, we finally did it: Hoshkar, the mightiest dragon so far encountered in Veeshan's Peak, is dead. This is the first Hoshkar slaying on ANY server. Loot included a Shissar Apothic Staff, Shissar Elemental Staff, and a Veridix's Short Sword. For more pictures of the dragon, click here.

Xygoz & Druushk Slain!
Two more mighty beasts of Veeshan's Peak fell tonight at the hands of Afterlife. This was also the first time on any server the dragon Xygoz has been killed!

Afterlife completes the first Singing Short Sword (Bard FA)! Full info here.

Druid Epic Weapon Discovered!
Sobe Silvertree of Guild Afterlife was the first player across all servers to finish the Druid FA quest. Congratulations Sobe!

Derakor the Vindicator is Slain!
First killing anywhere of this new Velious mob located in the zone of Kael Drakken.

And it keeps going. FoH had EQ-firsts, but by no means were they utterly dominating their competition.

Quoting a post from July, I know. Agreed; Afterlife was always the premier raiding guild in my eyes. Heard of FoH, Shock of Swords, Legacy of Steel, too, but at the time I thought AL was king. I mean, their GL won server-wide BotB.

BotB tournaments dont mean jack when it comes to running and then raid leading a guild.

Yeah, I remember Celestial Tomb being a joke also but they drama they created was priceless.
