Would you guys be up for a raid on Skar starting at about 3:05 this afternoon? my break at work starts at 3 so I could start it then and I could do 10 minutes there and 45 more minutes when I get home from about 4:15 to 5.

I'm thinking we need to beat Skar three more times before we move on to something else. If we succeed from 3 to 5, we could start another one from 8 to 10 or so, or as soon as the cooldown is over. From what I gathered yesterday and the day before, you can't restart the raid until 2.5 hours has passed since the time you started it, no matter how long it takes for the guild to get it done.

FM

[BrianD]

I should be around for the first one for sure. Not sure about the second.

[kingfc22]

I'll be around for at least one of them

[wahoomac]

Same here. I need to start some other characters and have them join the guild as well.

[FrogMan]

Raid launched battle begins in 5.

FM

[FrogMan]

well done guys, when mty break ended, we were up to 78% of phase 1, after only 10 minutes!

Should we start another raid when the cooldown is over, around 5:30 eastern?

If so, we'd be able to do a third later on in the evening and we'd be done with Skar and on to another one...

FM

[BrianD]

I won't be able to help much at 5:30, but I'm not sure you'll need my help. Pretty strong crew the last time around. If you launch the raid, I'll try to get some shots in.

[FrogMan]

This afternoon, I was lucky enough that my Justicar, Fortificus, leveled up not only in the middle of the raid, but just as his energy was dropping to zero. Boom, full energy again!

Little trick I have found. If you buy of the the two sigils that can give you 2 extra energy your energy not only goes two up, it goes to max energy. One sigil costs 5000 silver, the other 10 golden tokens. Timing it right, you can go for 12+14 energy in a row buy buying a sigil just when your character's energy hit zero...

Yeah, I figured if we were able to get it done in 50 minutes with me only doing 10 of them, I'm sure the next few ones, if I announce them in advance, will be doable no matter what...

That's what I did and then got a level raise as the energy got low.

[FrogMan]

Raid was just launched. Battle begins in 5.

Nevstar - Nevstar - War Mage - level 15
Nevstar - Heybro - Justicar - level 11

[FrogMan]

I'll start another raid in a few minutes. Stay tuned.

FM

[FrogMan]

raid was just launched, battle begins in less than 5 minutes. Come on guys, let's kick Skar's butt for a fifth time so we can move on to another raid

FM

[FrogMan]

well done guys, another one within one hour. Now, the next one is Lockbolt's reign and its timer is 4 hours and it's rated as "hard" even for my level 18 shadow walker. Will not start it this evening I'm afraid, since we've all been hard at the last raid...

FM

[kingfc22]

Thought for sure I had a chance at Top 5 this past raid.

it does get much tougher in the second phase of the raid

Two questions:

What happens if you die?

What do gems do?

Nothing happens when you die, other than you cannot continue the fight you were fighting. You don't lose anything and you can go to the templs, buy a couple healings at 100 silver a piece and get right back to fighting. It's only more trouble when you die in one of those big quest that cost 10 energy. Then, you can't really get back in because you won't recoup those 10 energy you just spent to start the fight.

Gems go into gem slots on pieces of equipment. Every piece of equipment you buy from now on comes bare of any attributes, as opposed to before the big update when you could see some "+90 crit" or something like that. Now you need to augment what you buy yourself. Every piece of equipement comes with one unlocked gem slot. The color varies with the type of equipment so different equipement can be augmented in different ways. You can unlock more gem slots with silver pieces, up to four slots per piece of equipment.

FM

[JPhillips]

I dn't understand what gems multiply when they say X2 crit multiplier.

[FrogMan]

so, when would be a good time to try this new raid? Should we aim for another 3pm eastern start time?

FM

[FrogMan]

just read that the BoH servers will be going through maintenance starting at 3:30 EDT so the 3pm raid thing is not such a good idea anymore.

If the servers are back online by then, I'm looking more at a 4:15 EDT raid start, just when I get back home. Raid would then be effective from 4:20 to 8:20 or so, since this new raid is a 4 hour timer... Fits better for me too since I'll have a hole in my evening schedule from 7 to 8.

Hope to see you all then!

FM

[kingfc22]

The later the better for me as I'm on the West Coast, but I'll check in once home.

[FrogMan]

Raid has been launched on Lockbolt's. Battle begins in 5. Might be tougher.

FM

[AnalBumCover]

Hopefully there'll be some scraps leftover for me when I finally show up.

[wahoomac]

Raid was a lot tougher than I thought it would be. As far as I know, we didn't even get past 2/3 of the steps. Kind of a weird difficulty level there.

[JPhillips]

Lost signal and couldn't get back home in time to help out more.

[BrianD]

That was tougher. I think the first 1/3 was harder than the second 1/3. I'm going to need to find a way to power level my guys a bit. Or maybe we'll need to knock out the first raid a few more times when we don't have a full complement on FOFCers.

[Qrusher14242]

yeah, my might wasn't high enough for that raid, needed 500 and my guy only had 450.

[FrogMan]

yeah, we're far from being ready to tackle that Lockbolt raid.

How about we take our anger out on Skar? Just launched the raid, battle begins in 5.

Also, could people state if they are East or West coast. I'll be looking to add a few officers that could start raids when I'm not online. That way, we could have a east coast evening raid and a west coast evening raid.

There's a level type meter on the guild page that currently reads 6000/28800. It went up 1200 for every time we beat the plaguerider so if we can kick his butt 4-5 times a day, we should be moving up as a guild...

What do you guys think of that?

FM

[kingfc22]

Yea, I think we made it to 75% in stage 2.

We will certainly need a full wave of characters or more FOFCers in general to beat that next raid

thing is most battles were against three opponents and every time you won a fight, the percentage didn't always go up. I figured it was 1% for every two battles won, as opposed to the full 1% for every win in the plaguerider raid.

FM

[kingfc22]

Sounds like a good idea FM. Let's just pound on Skar for awhile.

West coast.

I for one, need all my 5 characters to be able to participate. Only my top 3 had enough might to go in. The fights were not tough for them, really not that tough, but energy burns down fast...

FM

[Qrusher14242]

im on west coast..usually any time after 6pst is good with me

[Mizzou B-ball fan]

I tried to jump in on the last raid and it said I couldn't do it. Perhaps I need to give more information. My Justicar is named Melky (lvl 8) and my user name is limelicker.

[FrogMan]

You just did not have enough might, that's all.

[NevStar]

That one was tough. I think we'll need more members.

I'm on the east coast & could kick off a raid most mornings (8-9) or anytime after 6 pm or so.

Ah, that's not the first time I've heard that.
