Shenanigans in Morheim

We (RoF, our legion) did some rifting last night; or to be more precise, we all did the teleportation quest at once and ended up next to the Morheim fortress. After an aborted attempt that saw us back at our kisks, we settled into a controlled and coordinated descent down the mountain valley path, violently arse-reaming every Asmodian soul unfortunate enough to stand between us and the desert, our goal.

The descent was fairly smooth. We would gank everyone we ran into and periodically turn around to kill/disperse the Asmodians grouping up behind us. Eventually we had disrupted the zone's regional channel enough to warrant an ad hoc group of defenders waiting at the base of the mountain, which we clashed with. Unfortunately for us, every time we killed someone, they were replaced by two or three more. We saw upwards of 30-40 red dots on our radar and didn't expect to last much longer.

But... last we did. For six minutes we stood on that one ground as both the forward asmodian zerg and the one on our rear grew rapidly in number, pincering us from both sides. Our healers are fucking insane. It took minute for our first death and even then, we lasted for quite a while before succumbing to the insane zerg. My best estimate is that by the end, about one hundred Asmodians were on us. That's not an exaggeration. We also killed a lot of people -- my daily counter was in the mid hundreds but some of those were from the earlier attempt and our descent. I estimate about 140 Asmodians lost their lives in that 6 minute neo-style brawl.

Fortunately for us, I frap'sd the entire thing. Unfortunately for me, Adobe Premiere hates me... I wasted so much time trying to get a decent flick going. I just resorted to going back to WMM in the end :P. Click on the below vid once it's playing to go to the youtube site (or just click here) to see it full size in HD.

  2. I can't describe how fun this game can be. If for nothing else, play it for the group PvP. The Abyss is nothing but adrenaline. Just don't go in alone :)
