Static VI Takes Velah

[Zenix_Leviticus]

I know that it is no big deal to 95% of the ddo world, but it was really cool for
the 6 of us.

We took a group of 6 players that played in the Role Players Guild on Khyber. We
started new charcters on Argo. We got Drow favor then rolled up our Static VI
and set out to do all 6 person quests on elite at the appropriate level and all raid
quests on normal.

So far, we have done all 1-6 quests on elite. We have all but two level 7's on elite.
We are leveling so fast that we had to skip a few to try the VoN Raid at level 9-11.
We failed at level 9. We had Velah down to 30% life at level 10, and last night we
took her down on normal difficulty. We made level 11 on our second attempt.

There are no vorpals, paralyzers, or any other twinked gear on these characters.

Some of you are asking what was the loot?

Hammer of life pulled by the wizard (me).... Gave it to the paladin.
Ruby encrusted Gaunlets pulled by the bard....Gave it to the cleric.
Tome of Wisdom +1 from the little chest by the Wizard.....Gave it to the Ranger/Rogue

I think we are going to do Tempest spine on Normal and Hard before we come back
to take down Velah on Hard.




The other NON-Static charcters that we play make up the Bushi'do Guild that will be
represented on all servers real soon. Right now just on Khyber and Argo.

Thanks for posting this, I've been wondering as my little static group of 5 approaches 10th level (at long last, been playing since release, but some of us just don't get to play very often), whether we'd ever be able to do the dragon raid as a group. This gives me hope that some day it will at least be worth trying. Maybe we should try Tempest Spine soon.....

[TechNoFear]

Gratz!

What do you think is the minimum for Von5?

Is it 6 for the switches?

My static grp is ftr, pal, rog, wiz and clr. Wondering if we 5 can pull it off on our own....

My group of 5 did Tempest N at 12th. All got blown off (except rogue but Sojek(?) regenerated) first time round. Got him second go.

Technically you can do with switches with two people. But where in the world are you going to find two people that can hit 25 str, 20 wis, and the ability to hit both switches and jump to shoot the target. It can be done though. With the group you posted above the fighter and cleric do one side and the rogue and pally do the other with the wiz helping where he can, likely shooting one sides target.

5 would be the minimum now that the ladder has been moved up. Unless you can pull more than one switch down below. I haven't seen it attempted, so I don't know if that is true.

The secret is out now!!! We used Zasha Olath to beat the dragon. shhhhhh
I had everyone fooled for a few minutes that we actually beat the dragon
with 6 normal people...
