High Lords will host Thunder Peak and Deathwyrm teaching raids on Sat Jan 31, 9pm EST

[Vooduspyce]

Our last teaching raids, Vision of Destruction and Hound of Xoriat were a lot of fun! CLICK HERE to read about it!

Next in our teaching raid series will be another double feature in Thunderholme: Fire on Thunder Peak and Temple of the Deathwyrm on Saturday, January 31 at 9:00pm EST!

All events in this series are for players new(er) to the raiding scene or players that are looking to learn raids better. First timers welcome! Dbags not welcome. Please have sound and be willing and able to follow instructions.

The goal is to welcome newer players into the raiding scene, to teach people how raids work, to get players more comfortable with raids, and to enhance the Sarlona community. There is no level cap for any of our teaching raids.

If you are new to FTP and TOTD, you will need to flag by slaying two red named bosses in The Ruins of Thunderholme wilderness area. You will need to have access to the Shadow Under Thunderholme adventure pack. Slaying Dagan The Death Knight will flag you for FTP and slaying Sarva Ballistrae The Cult of the Dragon Emissary will flag you for TOTD.

Dagan and Sarva are a little tougher than ordinary slayer zone bosses but are both soloable. You can find a map with pathways to these bosses at the above Ruins of Thunderholme link, or you can check out a video I did: How to Get to and Flag for Fire on Thunder Peak and Temple of the Deathwyrm Raids.

You will find the entrance to the ruins through The Thunder Peaks public zone, which is accessible across the bridge in northeast Eveningstar. Before heading into the slayer zone, talk to the 2 NPC quest givers in Thunder Peaks, then talk to them again after defeating the bosses and they will grant you the raids.

Space is limited so reserve your spot ahead of time! If you would like to reserve a space in this Saturday's event, please contact me in game on Gingerspyce.

Thanks for all the support and special thanks to DDO Chronicle and DDOCast for mentioning our events. We hope to see you in raids soon!

Love,
Gingerspyce and The High Lords of Malkier

PS. All are welcome to attend our Tuesday Night Abbotfest (heroic) and our Friday Night Mark of Deathfest. While these events aren't as formal as our teaching raids, we are happy to explain how the raid works to new players.

Great turnout for Thunderholme raids! We had 6 first-timers in FTP and 3 first-timers in TOTD and a couple others that had only done it once or twice!

FTP was a lagfest and nearly lag wiped, but we pulled through thanks to the heroics of Cyax who kited the entire contents of the raid for a couple minutes while the lag subsided. So no FTP video.

TOTD ran long because we had terrible luck finding the right phylactery at the end, but that gave us opportunity to explain and demonstrate doing the portals 1,2 and 3 at a time. Here is the video!



Thanks for coming e1!
