deltazed does dragon duel

MoA is done!

Here is a screenshot from right before the final duel. It was hard to find a place big enough to get positioned for a picture. I had problems getting through the doorways and up the ramp because I was HUGE. I left the ScreenSpam on so you could see my new "Distinguished" title. I got screenshots from the duel as well, but they are full of screen-spam from the long and too-close final battle.



I think MoA was one of the first KoTS era guild-level efforts I really enjoyed. I was close enough to 70 to play most of it together with the guild mains on the first or second walk through. When RL interrupted my schedule for a while, I cam back to the 5th or 6th run-through and the job was done. There are obviously advantages to being in a large active guild when you want to get through some of the harder quests.

I'll admit I tend to avoid the longer quests, but if more of them resulted in necklaces like this I'd reconsider.

How I spent my KotS dkp

In the times before Shades of Destiny was big enough to field x3 raid groups we joined forces with the Knights of the Shattering.
The benefits of this co-operation were immediate, as we could begin to outfit our raiding mains with equipment we couldn't hope to get otherwise.

KotS implemented a dkp database shortly after we joined forces. As a regular in these combined groups, I picked up a BUNCH of nice raiding gear.

Who let the dragon out...

Now that's a target!



Here we are, taking a moment to soak it all in as we come face to face with a "capital D" dragon. It's one heck of a view. This was the first time in for most of us.

I took a break before we started fighting to pose. This is a BIG place.

It took 3 or 4 attempts to get the dragon positioned over the moat where we were hiding, then it went down fairly fast. 3 big dragons in 3 days was quite the task..





This was quite a crew. Kudos to all.



A Special Thanks to the KoTS folks who allowed us to join in this raid. Taking Tarinax down was a major effort and we really worked well together. In fact, we were done so fast we had time for another run in our Saturday afternoon.

Cruor Alluvium - 74 Epicx4

Here's a shot from our trip to visit the Cruor Alluvium. The EPICx4 are tough fights in almost every case. I do nort remember ever winning this one. We went in prepared and came out all busted up. I could be wrong... anyone?
