I did suggest, via twitter, that I might do something different for my blog covering yesterdays events. However, I didn’t get it finished. In fact, I think it might take longer than I expected. So I’ll keep working on it & hopefully have it for you in a few weeks. Then again, it will probably end up on the pile of things I have to do, along with iPhone apps, 2 novels, floors I need to put down… 🙂

So instead – my normal format.

Yesterday was our now normal weekend routine. We ran around with our TR characters until mid afternoon when the Defense Guild members turned up. We didn’t actually get that much done with the TR’s, but it was possibly the easiest Crucible run we’ve done yet. I think I may have run round that maze way too many times 🙂 And Hymm has now taken level 16.

So we switched to our high level characters to team up with DG. And decided, since we’d got most of the usual raids run the day before, to have another crack at Caught in the Web.

The party consisted of:-

• HotDW
  • Dimachaerii (monk)
  • Rowendar (cleric)
  • Aldrac (rogue)
  • Jaisa (sorc)
• Defense Guild
  • Samius (wizard)
  • Tobril (monk)
  • Dezember (monk)
  • Shuhei (rogue)

In we go 🙂

It was actually a very smooth run for the most part. Part 1 was cleared easily, apart from Lolth realising that Jaisa had the least number of hit points in the party and deciding to stomp on him at every opportunity! I managed to avoid being thrown off the platform this time, which was a nice change 🙂

Part 2 (as I’m calling it) was a fairly straightforward run up through the Demon Web. We took out the portals without any real trouble.

And then we hit the last part, the portal keepers…. No idea what happened, but half the party died, we regrouped and Anna was pulled back to the beginning. OK, no problem. We pulled back, those of us still alive cleared up some of the trash, and we ran back to Anna. Picked her up and made our way back through to the portal keepers. At that point we could see that there were 2 left to deal with. Samius takes control of Anna and we get the first portal keeper out of the way while he runs her up to the portal.

Just the exalted necromancer left to deal with…. a quick dash across to him, clear out the trash and down he goes..down goes the portal – and Samius and Anna are through. BOOM!

Our first CitW completion 😛 Obviously, we only ran it on normal, but we were pleased all the same. 5 chests and some decent loot dropped :- 1 commendation, Shuhei pulled Agony and Rowendar pulled Breach.

This will now be added to our weekly raid runs 🙂

Have fun, see you around!
