Warhammer : Order Alt Night [Jan 12th]


Monday Night Rolls in , and was time for another Order Alt night !
unusually , we had a single group going today and our entire
corps of warrior priests was MIA :S .

Assembled for the night :
-Tzudevil ( RunePriest )
-GrimFate ( Sword Master)
-Dracfyre ( Bright Wizard )
-Fynflame( Bright Wizard )
-Elsabeth ( Bright Wizard )
-Korinn ( Sword Master)

heading out into Ellyrion , we decided to queue up for some
scenarios . The 1st phoenix gate was pretty enjoyable , and went
back and forth , chasing the flag carrier , pushing destro all the
way into their base and preventing them from capping .
in hindsight , we should have protected our flag , but it was fun
nonetheless . live and learn .

MourKain soon popped after that . and what a disaster that was .
shorthanded (12 vs 9) and outleveled , match was over in 4 min .
not a pretty sight .something was up with scenarios after that .
couple more popped and order had the same handicap
(12 destro vs 9 order) . and when StoneTroll popped a bit later ,
order had 15 players in ( supposedly it is 12 v 12) and the scenario
ended abruptly with no warning message with 6 min left .

The Dragon Gate

in between all this scenarios we managed to finish a pq in
Ch8 Ellyrion , and everyone got a green bag with a nice
rank 17 chest armor reward . Tzu Funnily threw his away
and took the money thinking it was a rank 15 piece .
That's what happens when it gets late !
Taking the hint , we called it an early night at 11:15 and
head back to city . I stayed behind a little bit and finished
a couple quests and ranked up to 18 .

A point about target calling ,
I know tanks usually lead the charge and make the target calls ,
But I make a poor target caller as i get sucked into the action
mashing my 1-2-3 sword master combos and it's hard to look
at the entire battlefield . I think one of the ranged players should
be target calling and we had good success with Drac at the helm ,
though we shied away from it as the night went on .

also ,seems my sword master is a bit ahead of the pack rank wise ,
so for next week I think i am gonna dustoff my archmage .
if she handles rez duty and a bit of healing , Tzu would be freed up
to pump the mad heals and we'll hopefully have better outcome in scenarios .

until next week !
