Great job everyone. Most fun I've had in awhile.

Server first ntov crawl and clear?

Nope, Launch day was full on crawl but Forsaken and Rampage.

Sorry!

Oh no looks like we didn't get to triplets. I had to log early. Next week 😁

[Fragged]

Well done! Looks like you had a blast =)

[Kindadar]

Congrats CSG - looks like great times!

[Skew]

Looks like fun tbh.
Although depends how many hours/many wipes it took.

Nice to see people raiding the game as it was intended.

GJ guys.

Ban them all.

How many characters at the peak? How many characters at a low point?

Longest Dragon Fight? Shortest Dragon Fight?

Start - End Time?

Opinions on easiest Dragon? Most difficult dragon? Worst dragon?

The readers want the know about this rare experience on P99. Actually doing raids as designed and stuff.

I think we averaged around 80 people or so most of the day. Vulak was definitely the longest fight at about 16 minutes. Koi'Doken seemed, to me, to be the fastest and cleanest, though the twins also both went down with hardly a fight (props to Ruffel playing "You Spin Me Right Round" over discord during Lady N).

Vyemm was an absolute pain to pull, but I think that's because that was the pull our pullers were learning on (we didn't want to fight him in his lair and risk getting thrown into the lava, or we would have just crawled him too). Lady M was extremely sloppy, and as a result, very close.

We had a few hectic moments where we ended up with multiple drakes in camp at once, but offtanking was on point so we pulled through. Watching Vulak's health trudge downward as he tried to cast gate about 30 times was a bit of a nail biter. Honorable mention to a certain warrior attempting to pick up a flurry drake before the heal chain even knew to target him. They're total monsters.

Was a really fun experience for me seeing Aaryonar's pit for the first time since 2003, and other spots in NTOV I'd only seen in pictures or videos until now.

Lots of BS in this thread:


1. Suspended players venting because they are going through pixel withdrawals, being unnecessarily angry and taking it out on "casuals" who posted their fun in NTOV.

***This is bullshit because being bitter that you can't raid shouldn't mean you have to tear down those who are able to raid. This is extremely childish.



2. "Casuals" claiming they have real lives, their guild tag proves so because it calls itself casual and those who raid in AM/AW all have no lives and do nothing but raid dragon pixels.

***This is bullshit because many of the so-called casuals put in just as much playtime as do the hardcore raiders if not more. The only difference is the activities the players partake while logged in the game. I know some AW/AM players who are logged in far less tha some of the "casuals" I know.



3. AM/AW members claiming that "casuals" can't raid dragons because they don't put the work in to accomplish such a feat.

***This is bullshit because the groundwork and domination that AW/AM have atm was cemented long ago under the tags of other guilds with many of the same players who controlled the raid scene years ago. Most of the present members never put in any "work" they simply got invited to the gravy train raid guild and now are enjoying the pixels that rain down.
