hihi, been looking through my footage. was first attempt and is a bit hit and miss lol.. I seem to have more than i thought - over 5GB somehow. At this stage have yet to d/l editing and compressing software so dont expect anything soon =) If anyone can point in the right direction for some apps to use would b appreciated.

About the invasion, thought it was really good, one of the better ones for sure. The difficulty level seemed to be about right, must be hard to match it with so many high level players and of course not knowing how many are going to be there.. The whole event lasted about 3 hours i think and we all fought and died together in high spirits. /cheer at the shard :D

yeah i was there, but as you said, was rather busy flipping between horizontal and vertical position all the time...
(guess it showed that i don't have that much hp....was always wondering what hp can be used for. now i know :p )

no video from me for this one, but as soon as i have some spare time, i'll start working on another vid, though probably not an invasion one ;)

And as a note to the devs: DON'T MAKE IT IN SCORCHED CORRIDOR EVER AGAIN! The cutthroats were shooting us through the walls, and if it wasn't for the fact that they were NPCs, I would call that a cheat or exploit. Nothing like being at the back healing, and suddenly dieing for no apperant reason.

On a less... energetic note, if it is there agian, try to make it farther from the entrance of the tunnel. There were numerous times that the cutthroats were right at the portal, and basicaly respawn camping. Granted it was only one or two, and I among many were comeing up healing, or spawning healing, but that was just rediculous(sp?).

It was all very fun. Would have been nice to have to do missions or something like the one kitin invasion. But, I was content to nuke and heal. Bring us more!

I think it was great!
Why bother a storyline when we can have crazy epic-sized battles like we had at the zorai portal? That was indeed the highest lvl count in all times and we simply kept dying and spawning. The balance was good imo.

Now if people think I am being sarcastic, I am not. Not always will things/events/actions has to be bound by some storyline or rp'ing. Sometimes it is a shoot-em-up, sometimes we only talk.
Anyone remember the ball in the Agorahall in Pyr? That was a whole bunch of RP'inig and highly rated by the people present.

This was also great. A different kind of great, but great the same.

My evening started in Fairhaven. Soon were we a group that wanted to go slay us some cutthroats. From there on we journeyed to Pyr listened to the tale and spread out to find the enemy. Direction would have been nice. But we found them. Most time my group was to late to see any real action. At one time the army we found was of ppl who just had Won ;)

After cleaning up the last remainders in Fyros it was time to return home and kick out the cutthroats there. The first few attempts failed but the constant add of ppl coming to the rescue eventually made the cutthroats succumb to our might :cool:

So whit the disappearance of the cutthroats and the message of victory announced it was time to take a well earned rest.

Fun evening all in all. And reminds me to sharpen my skills for combat.

Sure :) But next time we take a little time. Go scouting where the enemies are. Then we find a short strategie, maybe splitt in 2-3 groups and attack them from 2 or 3 sides. We will need it, cause next time i want pink blackstars :D
