An emergency patch sent us back to NToV the next time. This one was a bit of pain, OK, it was a great deal of pain. We tried to rush and this caused all kinds of problems. One of them was that Iris and Ary died in WW enroute. Tinv decided to CR them while we were actively fighting and Mallo, pissed off or confused about the real issues, wouldn't let Tinv roll on uber_rogue_lewt01. This caused all kinds of hue and cry and, of course, Tinv left. The fireball on the boards over this could be seen for miles around.

While all this was happening, PE started zoning in and tried to leapfrog us. Then the screwed our pull of Aary and caused a wipe. Mallo talked it over with them and he decided that we would collaborate on Aary and then PE would take Left side and we would take the right. Lots of unhappiness here too. I didn't like it, but I felt leaving was detrimental to our overall cause and my personal goals, so I stayed.

We killed Aary and then proceded to kill the things that were up on our side. It was 'OK' after that, but we still wiped to Dargan by, IMO, rushing that pull. After the CR, we ported out, it was too painful (and late) to continue.

So, I am sitting in the Nexus chatting in tell with Seyah over the events and she invites me on a stealth run to kill Rhags 1 who is up in Ssra. Now, it's a bit after midnight already, but I am wide awake and Bianca is already sound asleep, so, I say sure. Our hand picked strike force of 9 zones in and attacks Rhags1. Well, it's so easy with 30 people, it takes quite a while with only 4 are melee classes :) Despite discovering that I can pull agro off of Ceaorn nearly at will, we get it done and Jaered wins the RGC drop we have been looking for.

We are standing around after the kill and Sparkes asks, "anyone want to kill a vampire for me?" Well, now it's like 1:30, and I am starting to feel tired. But, Sparkes is cool and has helped me in the past, so I say "sure", cusring the left coasters. Turns out the guy who needs to be dead(er) is the only thing in Katta that cons red to me at 60. Hmm...

Fortunately, only Jaered has been a bad boy in Katta and we can walk right up to him. No guards or anything and begin to lay the smack down on him. Well, remember the part where we have only 9 people? Still applies. Remember that Katta is a Luclin zone and Luclin bosses have millions of hit points? Still applies. OMG this takes forever. 29 minutes and 30 seconds to be exact. But in the end, Sparkes got this shiny new robe (+15 INT, +100 CHA). Now, it's 3 am, "Laenyel, bind please." Bye bye.
