Terenas 8/12/2005 - vor_lord - 08-12-2005
Our main run tonight will be Razorfen Downs, which is brand-new to many of us. Seems we're mostly done with Scarlet Monastery needs.
Tonight so far I know we'll have:
Necrali (vor_lord) 39 Priest
Durambar (bonemage) 40 Warrior
Yuri (Xame) 39 Mage
Gorkuk (VoiceMan) 39 Hunter
Kosch (gantor) 40 Shaman
Octord (khgerg) 38 Warlock will NOT be playing tonight.
Anyone else tonight?
Alram?
Concillian?
PapaSmurf?
Treesh?
GG?
Anyone who hasn't been on for a while***?
I know we have a few people in the Wailing Caverns range (Jarulf/Taakal/WimpySmurf), we could potentially help out in this area if desired if any of you will be on.
Needs:
Yuri and Gorkuk need to get books from SM Library
Kosch needs Aegis of the Scarlet Commander from SM Cathedral

Terenas 8/12/2005 - Kevin - 08-12-2005
There is a chance that I will be there but Treesh doesn't get off work till 9 server time. Marn needs Sacrlet Monestary still. I had done the library but I actually lost both books (test of Lore and the other one) because I turned in the quests then the server was rolled back and I had the quests but not the books. However Mogo and Marn are a duo so if Treesh isn't going to be there I doubt Marn will be either. Sure this isn't an RP server but Treesh and do have some RP type characters. :) Mogo doesn't need the books since Treesh turned them in at a different time, but she does need everything else as does Marn.
I do have Ragefire Chasm and Wailing Caverns people that are not tied into a duo with Treesh. I'll try to be on tonight and see what happens.

We traditionally get started on the 'main' run at 8:30 server time (give or take). A lot of times we will do something short and possibly shorthanded beforehand, and usually afterward we will have a loot run somewhere with people who stay up later. Sometime tonight we'll be doing SM Library and SM Cathedral at least once.
If Marn and Mogo want to do SM we can certainly join you after we finish RFD. I'm sure at least 3 people would like to do it. I'm available even though I've done all the quests and got all the drops I want -- it's still very good exp and I love instancing.
Terenas 8/12/2005 - Concillian - 08-12-2005
I should be there, but probably on the later side of things, maybe 9-10 server time or so.
I don't need to do RFD, but the warrior would like the armor drop from the spider at the gong. Bonemage probably wants this too, he just doesn't know it yet. It's pretty easily farmable because it's not too far from the entrance to the instance.

If I get there after you guys have gone through or are going through, maybe we can do some farming afterwards while some others head to SM.
Other stuff I need is still out of your league, but you guys are catching up quick. (Jintha'Alor, Zul, Ulda, Maraudon)
One note of advice since you haven't been in RFD before:
do not do the escort quest. You will not be ready for it. It's tougher than divino was before they nerfed it. I honestly can't see anyone getting through it when it's yellow and it's even questionable green. There are simply too many mobs that start popping up. You go through a little bit thinking it's a normal escort quest, then you realize groups of 2-3 elites are popping up every 10 seconds.
There is an okay shield in RFD also, but Mograine's is better. If we farm the spider the other drop is an 11 STA/ 5 SPI blue cape and blue leather gloves with a random enchantment +10 Nature Resist. I don't think we have any leather wearers unless Alram will be around with Rogoll, perhaps an enchanter can be around for DEing those, as even with a leather wearer, the chaces of useful stats aren't great.

I've been drooling over the Carapace for awhile now, so look forward to farming for that. I didn't know it was easily farmable, so that's good news. I'm also looking at his cape as an upgrade for me, so I can't lose. Necrali is an enchanter so any non-useful drops can be disenchanted and we can roll for the shards. Do you still need Mograine's Shield? I was able to get that shield earlier this week, but it's so good I'm up for helping anyone else that wants it. I think we'll be hitting RFD and SM pretty hard for drops tonight, so whatever you need, we'll be up for it.

We should farm Uldaman (shudder) as there is Galgann's Fireblaster and Grimlok's Charge to be had for the hunter(s) and it seems good ranged weapons are hard to find. Also the better melee weapons tend to be snagged by warriors/rogues/shamans first, and this polearm is too fast for a warrior and not usable by the other classes. So we'd like to get it for Gorkuk (and maybe Marn too if he wants it).
By next week we might be capable of doing Uldaman with the exception of the final encounter. As I recall, the quests for Uldaman (if they are similar on the Horde side) require a lot of re-entry.

Hmmm, is the escort at the end? It sounds like a good way to die going down fighting. I enjoyed our first attempt at SM Cathedral, at 35-38. We failed vs. Whitemane, but at 36-39 we were successful and learned a lot about stretching mana for a long fight (soooo many resists and misses).

The escort is right in the middle.
When you go into the instance you have the choice of going right or left. To the right, the first two pulls are two of the toughest in the whole instance until the last couple. (they are all ~5 pulls, but these have more elites than the middle pulls). It is a shortcut to the major quest boss.
Left is easier, has boss mobs for loot, and near where it joins up with the shortcut is where the escort is. If you can manage to do things quickly it's conceivable to finish the instance and come back to the escort, but I think it's unlikely that you would finish before repop unless you had a 'sugar daddy'

I have a green shield now that is similar in terms of armor and block, with more STR, but no STA. I'm content with not getting the shield at this point. But if you want to do SM, my warrior is 45 now with some significant upgrades from my last Friday appearance, either SM or RFD will be a breeze.
After the armor, my items needed list is pretty short until the end boss in Uldaman for the nice SLOW 2H drops.

Actually I had my times wrong. Treesh gets off work at 7 Terenas time. 9 Stormrage time. So that makes that work potentially better.

Terenas 8/12/2005 - Alram - 08-12-2005
I'll be on tonight. I've never seen anyone do the escort quest without wiping; a challenge for us! I'm reasonably familiar with the instance, and will be happy to guide you through it. There are 2 quests outside the instance as well.
Off topic--I'll be out of town from Monday to Saturday and won't be playing while I'm away..
Terenas 8/12/2005 - Treesh - 08-13-2005
Since I now actually have a set schedule for days off (hooray!), I can make Friday runs on Terenas. I'll have both Thursdays and Fridays off (except for this week) so I'll actually be able to join in on the fun. Hooray for Mogo playtime! \o/

We did the escort with a 40 warrior, 46 paladin, 52 rogue, 38 priest, and 38 warlock without any issued at all. Though the 52 rogues really helped a lot. But the paladin (me) being able to consecrate and let things beat on me and not the guy really helped. :)

I had a lot of fun tonight -- two (almost) full groups of near level lurkers on Terenas. With Taakal's mage we had 10 but Aysa is just a wee bit underleveled for RFD :P
