Re: Chains of Promathia Areas Unfettered! (05/24/2010)

I had a blast last night (see accomplishments thread) exploring on my own. Was wandering around as a 68Thf/Nin and nothing was aggro'n... then I got to the back and suddenly I was jumped by a bunch of fomor ruffians. People were there farming fomor hate proly and saved my ass. I then found the Sacrarium chest key I'd had forever not knowing that I hadn't flagged the map quest and got 5.5k. Noticed it would be a good place to go back and spam my crossbow cuz even though the bolts hardly proc'd on them, those fomors are the perfect level for my gimp ass marksmanship. Still want a map ... not that it'll do me much good cuz of the changing maze... but it's the principal. I had a blast. But yes... saddness the fights are now jokes instead of the epicsauce of old.

....bear mace?

Ok story time!!

/em hands out blankies, freshly made cookies, and ice cold milk!

Ok so we all got on vent and were going to do Shadow Lord. We had a guy that lived in Canada and he always got harassed cause he was a bit quirky (and then add in the Canadian accent!). So after taking an hour to get everyone together, on the right job, equipped, etc., we all tele'd to Xarc. Our Canadian friend was our whm for the evening so we already knew this was going to be interesting....we just didn't know how much!

Well it took us FOUR HOURS until we all got to the Keep. My god the afks...right in the middle of aggro. The people who would /follow and someone would change equips and then the tractoring and raising. At one point someone afk'd and others just kept going. Then the people that stayed with the afker got lost and instead of people staying put and guiding them by talking to them, everyone went wandering around trying to find them. Good lord....it was a cluster fuck of epic proportions! Well the whm and the tank made it to the Keep first and the rest were lost. Well the whm got tired of the screeching "NO NOT THAT WAY!" or "OH SHIT AGGRO!" or "GOD DAMN IT, DEAD AGAIN!" and decided to entertain himself. All the rest of us wanted to do was get this the fuck done after 4+ hours. So in the middle of all the arguing and whining, we hear blood curdling screaming!! It got quiet REAL FAST! So we here the sound of fabric being rubbed on a mic, screaming, swearing, something about burning, and then nothing. We all were stunned....our whm was gone and we had dead people. Thankfully I was drk/whm....remember this was a long time ago. lol Now we are all at the Keep and our whm still hasn't come back. Being the worrier that I am, I am coming up with scenario's like crazy. "Someone broke in and stabbed him to death and we heard it!" "The house was on fire and he was trapped!" and on and on until finally I begged someone to call him. Well we are all really concerned and waiting and waiting but finally the person comes back and tries to tell us whats going on. It went something like this...

HAHA....B.....HAHAHAHAHA....Be...HAHAHAHAHAHAHA....Bea....HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA....Bear....HAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAMACE!!

Well we finally get it out of him that our whm had gotten bored waiting for us so he had a can of bear mace near and wondered what it smelled like. So he decided to just spray a bit in his bedroom, his small bedroom, to smell it and found that his face felt like there were hot coals on it. That lead to the flaying of arms, screaming, wheezing, and tripping over the PC power cord and unplugging it. We all were roaring laughing till we couldn't breathe and when he logged back on later, we laughed for another 30 minutes. Then we went in and nearly wiped to SL because people kept making jokes while we were fighting and people were laughing too hard to do their jobs.

1st guy: "Shit shit what was that move he just did!"
2nd guy: "Shadowlord uses BEAR MACE on Tanakas face."

Oh and our whm says that bear mace smells like HELL....in case anyone was wondering.

Anyone else done 4-2 Ouryu? That was significantly harder then any of the other previously 40 cap battles.

I don't think that was the first time TGM told that story, but it still caused me to LMAO when I read it.

Nope, its somewhere else on the forum. I just figured I'd repeat myself and cement my image as an old fart. lol
