Thanks Brasch, Damors and everyone else who helped me get through Bastion of Power and Genesis Point last night. Despite a few deaths (I tried!), these were the smoothest runs I've had yet in Shavarath. Very good players, very good leaders as well.
Incidentally, I got both the Draconic Necklace and Talvi's Sash in the end chests. Since I didn't really need either of them, I offered them up to the group and no one wanted them! I just couldn't bring myself to sell 'em, so I've kept them for the GH clickie and +150 spell points.
