    Default Stuck Piking in the Shroud

    Yesterday, I was on my 1st life cleric Mammabear when I decided to join a noob friendly hard shroud LFM that had one healer. I thought that I'd help him out and work on adding to my LDS collection.

    We got in and had the usual teaching run experience: lots of explaining and a bit slow but with steady progress as heals, arcane and a few melee were knowledgable. We got to part 3 with all puzzles solved and I ran some water to a 3X3 on the west side. I studder lagged a bit going through the door and was thrown through the wall to the outside of the maze. The area I was in looked like a bad mirror image with the actual puzzle visable through a dark haze; I felt like Alice in Through the Looking Glass. I typed /stuck and prayed that it had been at least 24 hours since I'd used it last....I have found a LOT of stuck spots lately. I got loading then teleorting messages. YEA! I'm saved....or not.




    /stuck ported me onto the top of the NW corner by the 4X4. There is an invisible wall preventing anyone from jumping down and I was once again stuck outside of the playable zone.

    I put in a ticket and 21 minutes later a GM showed up. We spent a few minutes of discussing my problem then I read:

    "I"ll port you to your party member. Get Ready"
    Arraetrikos roars as his body shatters and explodes. He has finally been banished to the eternal Battleground of Shavarath.
    *ported to the other cleric's location.

    The bard was a self confessed bad healer and we had a few new people in the hard run, so it was not a zergfest. I'm so glad the other healer was awsome and managed parts 4 & 5 by himself. XD

    I got the most interesting piking experience of my life and my new favorite screenshot of the raid. And to think that they say nothing new ever happens in Shroud...

    Congrats on pulling a GM who actually helped you. Buy a lottery ticket, you're on a lucky streak!

    I applaud your lack of activity, yet, a game bug does not a /pike make...it's just a game bug that put you on the sideline. To /pike you really have to MEAN it.

    Please refer to my signature and, especially, the H and the O links at the bottom for my Piker's Guides. Be sure to read them while in a raid actively /piking.
