A Night at the Up-the-Stairs

Sign up with your A) class/classes (and preference if several) and B) radiance.

This is a one day raid for now as I'm not sure if I'll be available for a second day or night - but it is not entirely impossible that I might post a followup raid eventually, but it'll be in a seperate thread.



I expect all to bring:

Ample amounts of morale/power/level 75 curing potions.
Ample stocks of food.
Battle and Warding Scrolls.
Hope tokens.
Your radiance gear (min. 115, but more will be preferred).
I will also expect you to:

Be on time.
Join the RRU Teamspeak server in advance.
Stick to disciplined use of voice when in combat.

or Thran, minnie, 140 rad

[tilla]

Would love to come on LM or Burg :)

Fun stuff!

[Hirion]

This is starting to take shape - a few more and we're set. Oh, and a couple of rune-keepers and a champion wouldn't be all bad...

[Eiyja]

I can offer Eidora or Eiyja but I have to stop at 23ish UK and a full run up to Lt would probably (maybe?) take longer than that.

Dont ask me to stay longer cus I know thats about when I have already started to pass out after being awake since 4am ;) Rather concider me an emergency option.

Radiance on sig is up to date.

[ReDGryffyN]

The christmas season is biting already, I still cant make this one and I desperately want to, will still be singing in Truro cathedral then! Going to have to negotiate to make a mid week one as the next 2 Fridays after this one are also a no go for me :-(

However good luck to you all for this one............

[Thrydwulf]

signing captain 150

[Sigrorn]

Maxxel volunteers for another night at the Up-stairs

[Daphne]

RK reporting in for some zapzaping and removing of corruptions!

[Sasco]

Signing up (late I know!), Pref for LM but Burg is also of a rad to go, Captain and hunter a still a bit too low I think, sig up to date

[thrandul]

Got a late half kin raid there tonight so having locks on hunter, but
able to join with minnie still if needed.

[Hirion]

Roster is up!

I know you have a time limit Eiyja - and although I'm only aiming at the two first locks for tomorrow, I'd rather finally have you along, and a warden at that(!) and we'll find a replacement if not making it in time. Of course giving first priority to the two reserves as it fits in.

[Elvion]

Hunter Elvion 150 rad will be happy to join - preferred
RK as well if needed

[Hirion]

Hunter Elvion 150 rad will be happy to join - preferred
RK as well if needed
Roster is already up. I'll keep you in mind should we need further reserves than the one already signed in in time.

[Ferohide]

Darn, looks like I won't be able to make it after all. Some personal matters seem to have interfered with my game-night. :(

I hope this doesn't cause you too many problems, Hirion?

Alright, in that case I'm swapping in Sasco as a second loremaster then.

[Eiyja]

should I use Eiyja for the first gauntlet and Durchest and then swap to Eidora in that case? my experience is that the first part is easier on GRD than on WRD.

[Hirion]

We'll be fine either way so it is really what you prefer to bring.

[Eiyja]

oki I duo class today then hihihi, Ill park both chars outside in beforehand

No parking needed - don't forget that we have vallet parking now (and that you can join the raid through the Classic instance panel from anywhere in the world.

[Reimou]

No parking needed.

I think they stated on the release notes of patch that people from Sweden still have to run to the instance...

[Hirion]

...yes Reim, except for the technicality that Eiyja is somewhat of Finnish decent, like yourself, which makes him drunk by default, thus he wouldn't know the difference whether he parked his dogsled hither or thither...! :D

[thrandul]

My internet connection have been very unstable today, propably
due the bad weather around or something, but still living in hope
it would get better before raid starts.
Just to let you know cause BG would be bad place to disconnect, so if
you want to switch me to reserve it's fine for me. :s

[Hirion]

A pity that TS crashed twice - and finally died entirely on us - as I'm pretty sure we were on top of that last HM fight; but two fights foiled by technical issues does sap some strength, especially at the hour.

A highlight will still by Notiane's frenzy on pulling those HM adds on Dûrchest - and the fun times of just cruising right through it all.

I had planned on a Lieutenant-follow up on Monday, but as it is, it will be a Twins run instead. Those in todays raid, earning the lock, will be given preference.

[Sasco]

*shakes fist at Muprhy* Good fun though and really nice on Durchy! Thanks for leading Hirion and everyone else :)

[Ferohide]

Gratz on Durchy. Sorry to hear you folded under the pressure of having no Hobbit Guardian around! :+

[Hirion]

We had a Hobbit Warden - they're even better. Except one of the Hobbits must have confused the TS server with a pie, 'cause someone ate it. More than once.

[Ferohide]

*sputters in protest* I can't see one of those fancy Wardens take a beating from a big baddy without taking a scratch!

Must've been Simbo thinking it was a pie, it's the only explanation! *grins*

Let's just hope it stays up from now on.
