Week In Gaming

Celebathien

  • Ran Weathertop’s instance with the Academy last week. Discovered Candaith uses his fists to fight, which makes him a brawler, which means he probably shares our drinking problem.
  • This week, the Academy once again realized that Lalia is a spoiled brat of a hobbit who needs to be eaten by a bear on the way back to Bree.
  • Took my Valar’ed Champion, Caesawerui, into Gundabad with the Tuesday group to experience how the enemy tries to instigate that dwarf war that’s brewing (I think we’re on step 5 or 6 now).
  • ESO: Took my necromancer through some New Life Day festival stuff because I like irony.

 

Crister

  • Finished the Gundabad story line quests on my hunter, very cool conclusion, lots and lots of exposition, I’ve earned my bachelor’s degree in dwarven history.
  • Ran the new 6 man Houses of Rest – cocky confidence with quick tier 1 victory led to humiliating t2 defeat, but it was fun and we are looking forward to making it work, loot wasn’t too shabby either.
  • XP runes for main line story quests?  Bah humbug!
  • I have a Ghast-tro-intense-inal issue right now and have been building bigger and bigger armed ghasts in tribute to minecraft’s flying box.

 

Sanswinda

  • Ran around Breeland dragging many mobs behind me while catching up on the epic story and proceeding into the Barrow-downs on Grrlz.
  • Made it into Gundabad and promptly fell to my death while trying to gauge whether or not I could jump into the depths of Gundabad and speculating about whether or not there would be a deed for it.
  • Played some Pokemon with Cyndars and we both got our first gym badges.

 

Pineleaf

  • My Crickhollow warden continued with the Gundabad storyline.
  • My Anor warden headed for the Iron Hills.
  • I started a new single-player Minecraft world where I was immediately met with a fire
