I remember starting back in 2006. As a newb I was not into the forums and just playing (badly).

Eventually they went and made changes to the titan so people could finish it. However right before that change one guild came forth to best it...Bones Brigade from Ghallanda.

I do not know who first beat the dragon or tempest.

But from that point on, I just remember the flag taken to xoriat. The demon queen was beaten by quebec guild first? (not sure on that one, but pretty sure).

Then the reaver raid was quickly 3 manned by them before any other server even got into the raid.

Then they left as did the other power guilds...and then legion, thelanis/xor/? came to the fore and continued with the abbot (at least pre-change) and I believe the shroud.

Then came the new mod 9....edit: and legion takes it down on day 1.

That is server pride baby....oh yeah.

/toot own horn
we also did the first speed runs of invaders elite, fallen shrine elite, trial by fire elite and first solos on elite invaders.
/done tooting

server pride people..... as each uber guild slowly fades off to real life and boredom, a new group grabs the flag and marches forward....on Thelanis.

The few, the proud.


congrats.

And to all you other servers out there..

As far as Legion goes they have been responsible for many first and if I am not mistaken they have been a guild since the beginning. The fact they have stayed together is a feat amongst itself.

The dragon was first beaten on Xoriat, Memnir could probably provide the details as he was there. Though he was known as Memory then.

The Dragon was first beaten by Illuminati Sancti, a Xoriat guild. We had Dev confirmation/congratulations in our pre-Achievement Forum thread about the take-down.

That was a lot of fun. We were one of the smaller servers, came from behind and still got it done. :D

Wow, this thread has really got me remembering the old days.......Good stuff;)
I do not know who first beat the dragon or tempest.
Tempest, man I don't even remember that long ago (Everyone sucked back then, lol). Now the Dragon on the other hand, yeah that was Mem and that **** Tooky's Illuminati Sancti. At least it was Xoriat/Thelanis:D
That quest was fun though, hiding behind the rock pile, then jumping on his front left paw...Man were we all newbs. lol.

Eventually they went and made changes to the titan so people could finish it. However right before that change one guild came forth to best it...Bones Brigade from Ghallanda.

Now before I get slammed, please read the whole thing....The first ever Titan completion was actually by Legion. I promise I was there! I'm sure Tolero can look into it, but it was. The problem is we didn't really beat it. We were kicking his butt, and he bugged out on the last pilar. I was actually the pilar beater. So we sent in a bug report, and sat there, and sat there, and sent in another report, and sat there...After about 2-3 hours a dev, (who probably had absolutely no clue what to do) got sick of our ticket spamming and ended the quest. We actually got the end loot and a raid completion, but back then it would just say you have finished this quest one time. So we posted, and explained what happened...and were totally flamed about it, of course we flammed back!:mad:
That's where the Legion/hate really started.
Then Bones Brigade did it, and he didn't bug, **** them.:)
But from that point on, I just remember the flag taken to xoriat. The demon queen was beaten by quebec guild first? (not sure on that one, but pretty sure).

I honestly can't remember the DQ.
I remeber, trying to beat it 1st, but I don't remeber who did...:confused:

Then the reaver raid was quickly 3 manned by them before any other server even got into the raid.

Nope, It was actually beaten by an Xoriat pug, and a member/officer of Legion was the leader of the party....Renegade. That dirty bastardsword:(
The 2nd to beat it and 1st guild to beat it was Legion on Xoriat. Yet Ren and his pugs, got it 1st, and 2nd is kinda like kissing your sister. :eek:

Just so you know MrWiz, Quebec was swallowed up by Legion between the DQ, and Reaver raids. Illundel is an officer in Legion, and Mork still plays from time to time.

Then they left as did the other power guilds...and then legion, thelanis/xor/? came to the fore and continued with the abbot (at least pre-change) and I believe the shroud.
We'd been around awhile by now, but we actually claimed our world 1st with the Abbot. Man did people hate us for this....well we did have some fun with it though.;)
The 2nd was the Shroud...
3rd was Vision.....

Then came the new mod 9....edit: and legion takes it down on day 1.
4th!!!:D

That is server pride baby....oh yeah.

I agree Pix, to me keeping a close-nit friendship with my guildies for so long is definetly my favorite achievement!

Right after wippin' everyones a$$ in 4 world 1st completions that is!!:D


Wow...I really rambled, **** I'm bored at work!

I remember coming to xoriat when I first joined. Giant hold was the current mod.

Good times were had in these guilds

Saviors of stormreach
Storm Lords

And now DARPA


Hope to have some more fun with fellow xoriat refugees. :-)

I thought IFV took down the Reaver first, officially. At least that's what I remember.
