3-14-2011 Monday LotRO instance 8pm EDT

[Varda]

We're running an instance in LotRO at 8pm EDT.
Suggestions and sign-ups welcome. Feel free to say if it's only tentative due to work or other obligations. I'll have to say it too about half the time.

We have three members who would like to complete 2.5.5 since only the Battle of the Deep-way is left for Nimrodel, Gildor, and Varda. Then these can catch up to the members stuck at 2.6.8 and go forward together.

Thank you Eonwe for your constructive post, and thank you Ulmo for your efforts to galvanize us.

I'm willing to do pretty much anything, including 2.5.5 The Deep Way, possibly followed by 2.6.8. I would also like to see us beat Ost Elendil and the other Annuminas instances.

I expect to be available Monday night, so consider this a sign-up.

[nimrodel]

As far as i know, i will be there. Any instance is fine with me

[Maedhros(V)]

Barring unforeseen circumstances, I'm in. I have no particular requests beyond "whatever's going."

Thanks for coming, gang. Good run! Here's the report of the run and the extras after.

Wednesday 8pm EDT planned run: 2.5.5 Battle of the Deep-way completed.
Participants (all level 65 unless it says otherwise): Gildor (guardian Marrella), Indis (lore-master Mereniel), Maedhros (warden Maedhroc), Nimrodel (champion Cynthiajane), Pippin (champion Avengelina), and Varda (63 minstrel Tiwetari).
A working strategy seemed to be two-manning the center (melee and off-healer) when it was attacked, while the rest cleared most of the north-east or south-west barricades and brought back the last one or two to the center if it was busy. Keeping dwarf npc helpers alive helped a lot. Yes, we did listen to your advice, Ulmo, thanks.

Then we broke into two groups to do three-mans, both successful:
2.8.4 Lumul-nar including quests. Participants: Maedhros (warden Maedhroc), Pippin (champion Avengelina) and Varda (63 minstrel Tinwetari).
School: Gildor (guardian Marrella), Indis (lore-master Mereniel), Nimrodel (hunter Ardisian)

[Maedhros(V)]

Well, semi-successful ... we were quickly splattered by the Piston Engine Room of Death at the bottom of Water Wheels.

Unfortunately, I probably won't be able to participate tonight in 2.6.8, but if my raiding plans fall through, I'll check in to see if there's space.

[Varda]

Aye Maedhros, we were splattered by the pistons, but only went in to take a look for fun. The objective was the book quest, which we successfully did, plus a batch of quests and we also progressed on deeds.
