More New Kills

Recently we've had an opportunity to take a stab at Cazic. He's been on our radar for a while however we've not had the opportunity to whack him as someone has always beaten us to him. It's also a bit of a downer taking the time to clear Fear but clear it and kill the god we did.

Second stop, our first attempt at and our first success on Aary in NTOV. 33 people. 4 Clerics. A long damn fight. One death. Wasn't even really hard even though we had a couple adds at the start of the fight. We sorted out the adds while Chaunie tank mezzed Aary. Then started our Aary fight as we had originally planned.

Rebirth

These pages used to house the archives of the HECK alliance. Recently, the majority of HECK's high levels, as well as some HECK allumni have come together to form a new single end-game guild called Zephyros (Greek for "West Wind"). We have some people returning to this cause from such guilds as Ancient Orden and Iron Tower as well as people returning from the Legends server.This new guild will have far more structure and focus than HECK provided and will be comprised solely of high level, hardcore EverQuest players. A clear and absolute leadership structure as well as a heavy emphasis upon mandatory raiding will provide the cornerstones for this new organization.

As we lay the groundwork, the guild's vision will be made more clear to the public at large, however we are still very much just in the formation stages. For example last night we received our tags. Application processes and requirements, rosters, PVP policies and charters will be ratified shortly.

As for the weekend's activities, we were productive:

Saturday

The morning began with getting some of younger members flagged for POV. We flagged five of them before we had the forces online to begin killing some mobs.

First to die was Vindi. After a little pvp (we won) 28 people, 3 clerics smoked him. No deaths.

Next up was the Statue, who popped while we killed Vindi (nice of him). The pull was a little ugly as we had 2 adds when he decided to show up. We lost a cleric on the pull, but with 2 clerics and 27 people, we killed him with no further deaths (and the fallen cleric was rezzed midfight).

We were told Telk was up and we still have some people who could benefit from a Lance of Thunder so we moseyed over to TOV. We had a couple of symbol mobs still up that we hadn't killed the week before so we blew through HOT to take them down before Telk. A few people got some HOT armor to fill in some gaps so an extra benefit was had.

As we prepped for Telk, I sent Xanroth to check a few of his spotters so we knew what to do next. Wouldn't you know it but Zland had popped. We put Telk on hold and ran 30 people down to Zland. Killed him with 2 deaths (and we laughed at those people who died:)). Svenuce on Zland Heart. Hemo on Shroud of Dar Brood. Cracked Claw went to someone as did the high damage 1Hslash with the lame delay. Though I forget whom.

Mini Update

Our leveling in POP continues. In the last two weeks we have been doing some flagging and a few quests here and there but almost no raiding (except possibly finishing up a few epics for some of our lower folks but those are mostly 2 group affairs). To show for it, we have our first two level 65 peeps, Rubiness and me. We have probably 10 more level 64s, most of which should ding 65 by the end of next week and a slew of 63s who will likely be 64 by the same time period. Naturally, new spells and songs have also been primary targets for us. New heals, nukes, buffs off all flavors will all play important roles as we do some catching up.

We are scheduled to begin some hardcore raiding cycles at the end of November to test the value of our new levels and a new timeline and hopefully focused strategy will bear fruit for our progression.

Level Time

We've been very hard at work since the POP release on killing a few "important" mobs when they are easily accessible (got a couple ST keys and such) but more importantly, we've put a lot of emphasis on getting everyone to 60+ and getting new POP spells and AAs. PON has been a key location for us, however we spent yesterday getting about 20+ people flagged for POV and POStorms. The flagging process will continue more this week so we can stay together and get even more exp. POV seems to be an exp paradise and it allows us to leave some of the new Velks (PON) behind.

We've killed a few mini-bosses in POD, POI and PON, nothing terribly challenging, but they have been fun and new. Loot hasn't really been all that stellar so far but these are the Tier 1 planes. We'll see what Tier 2 holds for us in the near future.

We'd have been to some of the tier 2 planes sooner, but Defiant, AO and IT have been hoggin the trials since the POP launch. :).
