I'm both excited and scared by this... Excited as it's VT, such an old school raid zone from live, scared cause well... Vaion. And Death Touches....

Oh yes the VT raids.. Start on Friday night do half the zone. Plan to start again Saturday at noon, get on the phone and call the other half of the guild that is not awake yet.
Lets not forget the COH gimps that you keyed and camped. Whoops logged in the wrong one now you have to clear everything to get the toon in the right spot.

I love the idea of new and exciting content, but I'm still slaving away at DSK... not sure if my feet will see HoH this year, let alone VT.... There came a point on live where, if you weren't in one of the raiding guilds, you just didn't advance any longer, and the quests were set for people that could slave away at the computer for hours, and then, if you were un-lucky, you found a needed mob perma-camped. I have faith these lessons were learned by the Devs here, and it won't be like that. Hard is one thing, timesink and hard is another...

But, my 2 cp aren't worth even that, what with inflation, the US economy and all...

Don't worry and have faith in the devs They are taking into consideration players' fear and hopes, don't worry It's the first server I see where our opinion is actually listened to. It's really customized from that point of view, even if course, you can't always please eveybody.
And I can tell you that progressing through tiers doesn't necessarly come from the fact that you slave away your computer for hours. I don't have much time to play (loving wife, two young kids, work) since I usually raid once or twice a week maximum (more during holidays of course) and we progressed to t8 with 3 or 4 active members (but boxers). Now we are more active but it's not only a question of being in a raiding guild. Ask around if you keep wiping on mobs so you can get helped to progress. Also, hard quests can be hard for many things, the time you spend on is a part of it.
If you take T8 access quest for instance, the requirement is not too hard to get to (killing the 3 first named of DSK1) but the essences collection is timesink (though I know some mates who did it in few hours only). The last mob to kill is hard as long as you don't have the script in mind, but he drops 5 + 1 shards so it speeds things up for other toons (can skip everything but the DSK2 access). All in all, it's pretty well thought because if for an access quest you make it "too easy", you might quickly end up in a crowded zone (especially if it's an open zone like hoh) so you have to find the right balance for the difficulty.

And maybe it will be something cool for pullers

Pulling?

They would need to change aggro ranges pull out the sacred bat to everyone's favorite pulling class to make it more interesting...

I'm sure there will be heavy use of CC on multiple fights.


When will we get to use AE Fear?!?!

[Beatboxin]

WTB a date with VT <3

Boing boing boing

I hope the key quest isn't the same as on live , god that was a pain. ( even more since it was pvp contested :p )

I think we were fighting for that against each other, if I remember right we were keying at the same time
