Upcoming Evilrace/Neutral Tia run...
Upcoming Evilrace/Neutral Tia run...
It has been my goal for many years to eventually lead the pinnacle of zones, Tiamat. Having said that, I would like to get a preemptive idea of what dates people would be available for a run. Last night's run took 13 hours, plus 2 more for the split/corpse gathering.
So, here's the dates as follows:
Saturdays - 12/03, 12/10, 12/17
Sundays - 12/04, 12/11, 12/18
Tentative starting time will be anywhere from 10 AM to 1 PM PST on these dates.
Obviously I'm not going to try beyond that until January. I just need some feedback and who would be down. This will be a combination evil/neutral run, and there WILL BE some sort of bid system/restriction in place. I might even claim an item (albeit putting a few nice goodies in the pot to compensate). I'm not sure on the details of it yet, I'm working on it now.
The group will hopefully consist of:
6 - tanks (1 being myself - Targsk)
2 - clerics
4 - shamans (possibly 5)
2 - bards/battlechanters (only 1 if a 5th shaman is available)
2 - enchanters
2 - illusionists
1 - elementalist
1 - druid
2 - necro (or necro/lich)
4 - melee damage (rogue/dire), possibly more at the sacrifice of spelldamage/psi slots
4 - damage (at least 2 psi's, possible 2nd druid/elementalist, maybe 1 invoker)
If your character is not at least 50th, especially casters, I strongly recommend doing some exp big-time. Last night's run yielded over 300 pcorpses.
Keep in mind, I am *NOT* taking signups at this time, but I'm more than willing to hear you reply to the thread if you'd be available and as which class(es).
Thanks for your interest, and looking forward to hearing from you!

Tia!
I would love to do Tia with evils. Doubt we can raise that many folks for that many hours, but i damn well will be available to help out if you need me.
I am on a european schedule and every other weekend I have my daughter. Playing 16+ hrs is a bit hard then, so I prefer the OTHER weekends :) 12/3/05 and then every other weekend is FINE.
My girlfriend probably will not cheer if I go again next saturday and I am not sure I will be up to it in that short timeframe, but let me know...maybe I can work something out.
I got Zogur (50 troll war), Ubob (44 ogre war) and Nissu (47 yuan ill) so let me know!

Last Tia run ended up with 377 pcorpses, that is about 11-12 death per player. It was a goodie elite geared 50th group. With evils, I predict at least 500 deaths, if not more. Anyway, Im still in this funny spank as:
50 troll warrior
47 drow ench
46 orc shaman
50 human anti
WBR, Ruagh

I will not join if this is the normal evil happy-go-lucky group thing.
But if players buffed up their evil chars, build up their xp buffers etc. then I would gladly go with an evilrace group. (As cleric).
Mabye a test with some ancestral dragons (ancestral shield quest) could indicate if Tia is worth a shot for an evil_race group.

Quite agree. It was a goodie group which was battle-scarred in BC/TTF/SPOB/Izans/whoknowswhatelse. And evils were fountain-sitters for ages. Well, my warrior's rescue trigs dont rust - but I highly doubt Ill perform well as a caster after years. And thus - evils need to do some ashield dragons to test their might, and maybe a high end zone or two - Izans will quickly show who is who, and is Tia even worth trying.
"Throw bodies on em till they will be bored" strategy is not a wise choice. We need a test.

To address concerns by evils...
There will be quite a few experienced evils in the group, as well as neutrals. I'd be willing to place good money that at least 70% of Scions and Imphras combined have at least 1 zoneable evilrace/neutral character.
Not to say that I'm going to take "goodie alts" per se, but I don't think it's fair to me that you guys try to put ridiculous stipulations like leading other zones and tests before Tiamat. I learned to lead by doing, and those of you who want to learn, feel free to take it upon yourself to do so...I can't hold your hands throughout your mudding careers.
If you feel like you're confident enough to handle 300+ mobs, all baatezu (devil) and dragons for at least 12 hours, not worried about dying/losing xp, then by all means, sign up. Otherwise, stop wasting my time complaining about the evils' plight. I'm just as much a victim of those circumstances as you are. I did my best to keep things going as long as I could.
However, to be fair, I'll try to lead a few evil/neut zones (no promises) before the date, which right now is looking to be the 17th. I'll decide tomorrow.

Don't worry about the evil bashing man, most of the people on the first run have multiple lvl 50 evils! *grins*
