Epic Raid/Dungeon Static Group.

[Kokanee]

Edit: 25th June 2011
I am going to have reduced time to play DDO until the next year so I can no longer be in charge of this group.
I hope you find a good group or a guild to run epic Raids with.
Nowadays there are several other static PuG raiding groups around, not to mention guild runs that you can join and have fun too.

I hereby disband this group as of today.

Thanks everyone for efforts.
I'm gonna miss all the good friends that i made during Easy Raiders active times.

Have fun!

I'd love to join you.
I was on an arcane in, I think, the first eDQ PUG you posted for. You did a great job leading and the group had a very smooth completion.

I have two capped toons available:
Zharadan (arcane)
Jikuyin (dps)

Cheers,
Kernal

I would be very interested in this, depending on the time frame. I typically play night/late night EST (10PM to 1AMish). Weekends are random for me, but if I can get on, would love to run then too.

Hullabaloo 16/2/2 Bard/Barb/Fighter Warchanter

[crazy7381]

Id love to help you have a lev 20 rogue quazicotl and soon to be lev 20 pure cleric quazihealz I play 12am est to 4 or 5am est

Just send me and ingame mail so i know you character name and can friend you =-)

+1, Good to see pug-ish epic raids being organised on Orien. Will support when I can. Gallina is usually committed for chrono but I have alts.

[Doop]

I'm keen on joining. Looking for epic tokens really to TR.. Play usually after 9 PM GMT +8.

Tulis (18 Ranger/1 Fighter /1 Rogue)

[Agent.Nein]

Very interested in this idea. Chars are :

Gyges, Rog 13/Fig 6/ Mnk 1, 600 HP, dual Min2, trapsmith
Dallben, 20 Wiz, enchanter archmage

Saturday/Sunday AM would be a great time, otherwise evenings 9-12 EST.

Thanks for putting this together.

[dogonovo]

Very interested in that too I am not sure my playing times are the best as I play from Brazil (most evenings and late night GMT -3). If you believe that would work or could give it a try, my characters:

-Thumbelin (Rogue assassin, 417 HPs, can reach 58+ Search for epic traps)
-Thumbnail (WF FvS Lord of Blades)

Maybe I could add you and some others to Friends List to see how often my playing times match yours?

Thanks already

I have been running a lot of epic quests and raid lately, mainly Pugging.

Most of the groups I have been with were sucessfull completing Epic Von6 raid, Zawabii Revenge (epic DQ raid), pretty consistently now.

I have been partying with folks from several small/medium/large guilds and most of them end up having to pug because they dont have a raiding group on their guilds.

So if we can form a group, get to know everyone and each one's goals, we can help each other and be more efficient. We can get more things done by spending less time on LFMs and inside quests.

With this in mind I thought of creating a static-ish group for running Epic content. Yes! we need tokens for all that event epic gear

Initially this group will focus on Raids, 3 raids (Von6, Zawabii, Chronoscope) 1 or 2 times per week depending on time and lvl20 character availability.

If we can get enough people we can start our first raid rotation this weekend.

i will help my bro
count on me for that

[PNellesen]

I would definitely be interested if the schedule is favorable. Weekend am (U.S. Central time) is best, but other times work too.

Paterik (19/1 Cleric/Fighter) and Patrolus (20 Ranger). Neither is flagged for VoN (simply never got around to it) but I can fix that easily. Both are flagged for ADQ/Zawabi's, but I've only actually run it on the Ranger, one time. I've run Chronoscope (non-epic) quite a few times, so I'm itching to give Epic a try (not sure my cleric has enough pots, though )

[Hellllboy]

Id be interested-when do you plan on your first run?

Brownstone FvS 20
Guinness Fighter 20

[Kokanee]

OK so far we have a 11 character party.

1 - Vyking (healer/dps), Spectron (arcane), Drower (bard/dps), Khant (arcane)
2 - Zharadan (arcane) / Jikuyin (dps)
3 - Hullabaloo 16/2/2 Bard/Barb/Fighter Warchanter
4 - Quazicotl(rogue/dps), quaziheals (healer)
5 - Gallina (healer), ????? (DPS)
6 - Tulis (18 Ranger/1 Fighter /1 Rogue)
7 - Gyges (Rog/dps), Dallben (arcane)
8 - Thumbelin (Rogu/DPS), Thumbnail (healer/dps)
9 - Sonilasfx (dps), sonilax (healer), soniburn (arcane), ??
10 - Paterik (19/1 Cleric/Fighter), Patrolus (20 Ranger ??Archer??)
11 - Brownstone (FvS 20), Guinness (dps)
12- ???????? -> I guess we could just PUG the last spot

So I'm gonna try to find and friend everyone up today.

I'll have the LFM up today Friday at 19:00PM (GMT -7).
I know its hard to find the sweet spot on schedule for everyone.
As we have people with multiple Alts we can try to run as much Raids as we can this weekend and get to know each other, chat about best playing times, etc..

Hope to see everyone in the game.

Vyking, Good work yesterday, conclude the raid epic. I will be traveling, see you in 5 days.

Have a good carnival.

[Kokanee]

I would like to thank all that showed up for Raids yesterday.

We successfully completed epic Zawabi (ADQ2)
HB crew was there to help and it was a huge help.
Thanks Harmonious Balance.

We successfully completed epic VON6 (Plane of Night) - We had a fail 1st run but managed to complete it on second. I'm going to start checking myDDO for blunders before taking random PuGs. There was a few in the group.
Some good drops: 2 red scales, SoS Shard, belt of mronanon base, hammer...
Unfortunately I lost the roll on the Sos shard, I only miss this shard.
The guy that got it only had seal (not base not scroll)
One of the Pugs is prob gonna just sell the scales.
All in all it was fun But its just a game or isnt it?

Anyway, I'm gonna put Raids Up again Saturday 3:30 PM (gmt -7) today so the ones who that didn't show up can have a chance to join.

I'm thinking about changing the loot rules for epic Shards: Shards should be given priority to people that have the larger number of parts to complete an epic item. In case of a tie (ie. 2 people have seal and base) then it is decided on roll. What do you think? Let me know.

[EatSmart]

One of the Pugs is prob gonna just sell the scales.

Personally I think it's actually a good thing to have "unused" scales floating around as barter currency. It encourages people who have experience successfully running the raid to come back to it after they've got their target items. It will eventually work its way into the hands of someone who will complete an item right after they buy it.

As long as we dont ever tell someone they have to hand over an item that dropped in their name, I am ok with this. I'm slightly concerned that it might encourage people to only raid when they have 3 items (base, scroll, seal) and then never come back after they make it. Maybe a "+33 to your roll for each bit you have" for shards that end up being rolled on?
I'm also ok with not having formalised loot rules beyond "use common sense, and dont take the ****".

Congrats on doing them, sorry missed the time posting, but will follow here and hopefully get the next one.

Personally I dont think the above is good. I dont have anything towards my eSoS yet, but its part of my end gear plan, so I dont get to keep/roll on a shard, even though I put an equal amount of time into the run that gave it? If its decided and stated before hand thats fine, I can decide at that point to run or not.

Good luck and see you all in game soon

[Forgeborn]

3 red scales actually, not 2, at least stay correct when you state what loot dropped :P
