I promised Rikutatis I'd post these up :) Most of them were taken shortly after release, so excuse the low settings I was forced to use back then! These screens feature plenty of good Homins that no longer visit Atys, and indeed a few good Homins that still do :)

Gibbai Event - the Gibbai went... well, even crazier than usual, and invaded parts of the Witherings :) We had to beat them back into the roots, and did so with plenty of dying, rezzing, and GM's nuking mobs that forgot to read the event script :)



A wedding between Kibs and Absynthia :) Quite a crowd, and again plenty of old friends and few of those glowing pink lollipops :)



A trek with the Atys Ghosts :) Always a fun outing, and plenty of Homins making the trip for the first time. IIRC we started in Witherings, travelled through ToT to the Lakes, and eventually wound up in Yrkanis :)



Frahar bashing, with some crazy Homins :) I miss these guys... Ryo returned with me, but now is known as Corax.



I don't remember when this was taken - maybe the end of beta? Maybe post-release, these files don't have their original dates any more. There was a PvP event between two guilds I believe, then it went free-for-all at the end :) Sporting only modest skills, and being the brave Homin that I am, I decided to film from afar ;)

...Absi, Blaze, Ezex, Razz, Drizz, Kibs, Petej, Trixytaz, Viracocha, Zella, Zee... :) I really do wish these guys were still here, and those are just the names you can make out easily :) I still own PeteJ jewels, although they're almost dead sadly.

It was a really good trek too, and my first visit to Yrkanis post-open beta :) I like to think the TPs in your bag are LIFO rather than FIFO, so technically I still have that dusty old Yrk TP with me now :) lol. I think 10 or 15 required the TPs, and the rest were along for the ride. Unfortunately the screens don't show the whole group - there were easily 40+ Homins at the start (25+ in the end) during that trek, and as you can imagine once we hit Yrkanis, we had a huge gathering with the people who were already there :) They probably thought there was an invasion of some kind!

Glad you enjoyed the screenies guys, it's a shame these are the only ones I have from way back when :)

That and the fact that everybody was level 100 tops, with maybe a few rare 150s, so taking on even a single level 200 mob took quite a few players. Add to this that every trek needs to pass through at least 2 level 200 zones, and that the level 200 zones had many more aggro then than they do now... :D

*Waxes nostalgic* The early treks were amazing. My first world tour took us through Loria. Seemed the whole server was there. I was lvl 90 or so melee wearing Q250 matis LA(no reqs back then).Took us over 8 hours. It was amazing to see so many homins working together.Also there was no portal Matis to Fyros then. That was an awesome event opening it. Daz,Petej was a fantastic peep. Alot of the BM website's mat locations were due to his help. I miss him terribly.Along with so many of the trailblazers. Names like Themac,Itachi, Juggernaut,Wintermute,Haddo and Booster and so many more.

Nice Valda, thanks for posting those :) Again the names are familiar, if only for brief encounters in some cases. Vintage :)
