As discussed on vent some time recently, there are a few large PVE things we've not done in a while:
UW
FOW
Tombs
The Deep
What other areas have lacked experiencing our dealage of late?
Do we have the numbers and the desire to conquer these lands again? Who's got the HLR flag ready to plant in the unkempt soil of the outside world? ARE YOU WITH ME?!
Silly Khunlin, I have no company this weekend (that I know of) of course we'll have a plan!!

I would LOVE to do any of those, though I don't particularly know if either my Ranger or my Necro would be able to do a few of those...that, and obviously my Necro isn't that far into Tyria, so Necro is out for Tyria-based adventuring, and Ranger is out for Cantha-based adventuring. Otherwise, yay! >.>

Well, we still need to hit the desert tour with our Canthan chars too. I'm up for some major questing, but I would also like to do some pocket-HA. As far as the others, I would like to try to do them in no more than a couple hours, because the longer we take, the more likely my computer is going to fail. I would actually like to finish one of these grand adventures sometime.

I'd like to get in on some Grand Adventuring. Any of the above would be fun. We've never tried UW with a balanced group, have we?

I love the idea of taking a balanced team to the UW.
Without Malae we may be short on warriors, but lets see who has what characters that they'd like to play. Should we shoot for Saturday night so we have a night to plan/prepare? We can leave from Temple of Ages in Tyria or Zin Ku Corridor in Cantha.
My characters and their locations that are available (in order of preference) -
Ranger (ToA/ZKC)
Ele (ToA/ZKC)
Monk (ToA/ZKC)(Way so new counts as ascended, right?)
War (ToA)
My characters that would need a run but could be ready by Saturday - Rit, Mes
Perhaps we try out pocket-HA tonight and UW tomorrow night?

A list of characters sounds like a good idea. Here's mine:
Ele (ToA/ZKC)
Ranger (ToA/ZKC)
Monk (ToA/ZKC)
Necro (ToA/ZKC)
Rit (ZKC)
Warrior (ZKC, I think)
It doesn't matter to me what character I play. Someone set a build and stick me in one of the spots.

I only have two characters, obviously, Necro (MM) and Ranger (a couple of roles). My Ranger would have to be ran to ToA, though, but I hear that would be no big deal.

-Monk (ToA/ZKC) -Warrior (?/ZKC) -Ele (ToA/ZKC) -Ritualist (ZKC) -Necro (ToA/ZKC) Mieren and Kayne aren't old enough to do these yet ;D I really don't mind what I play, although I've had an odd addiction to monking, recently. It might be healthy for me to get off the backline for a bit, though  That said, I guess my Order of Preference (*Tee hee* New Necro elite?) would be Monk->Warrior->Ele, with the other two tied for fourth. |

Ranger (ToA/ZKC)
Monk (ToA/ZKC)
Necro (ToA/ZKC)
Warrior (ToA?/ZKC)
Ritualist (ZKC)
I can't remember if Canthan ascencion/Way So New (lol) counts as Tyrian ascencion for ToA and vice versa. It seems like it should. I don't have much of a preference although I'm still not all that experienced in higher level areas as a warrior. I'd be perfectly happy healing, rangering or making minions/SSing... where ever I'm needed.
If anyone needs a run from LA to ToA, let me know.

Sounds like we're going to try to do a balanced underworld run. Anybody have a good plan for this? I would guess 2 warriors, a nuker, a MM, an interrupter, and some monks (heal, protect, and bond?). I have only ever gone in there to trap, so this is new to me. I guess we could also trade out one of the monks for a Rit. Lord if we want to. It might be interesting to take an explosive MM (Rit) instead of a necro, since the mobs are pretty big. I have been researching a build, but I haven't come up with anything solid. This one just seems like a good balance between offense and defense, with some utility. What do you think?

Well, I'd think that, like most balanced, this will only not work if it's fundamentally flawed, and it it's fundamentally flawed, we'll find out pretty quickly ;D
So I say go for it! Cross your fingers and hope for favor?

I think i'm hanging out with whats her face again tonight (i promise to not make a habit of going out during HLR time) but I would suggest having only 1 warrior. That way theres only 1 main guy to heal, and if he uses stances its not so bad. Glads + Bonettis?

Curses!
The beloved Gamer-Nazi is in one of his moods, with perfect timing as always. I can make it tonight, but being around for more than two hours would be a serious stretch, and I seem to remember these Grand Adventures taking a wee bit more than that =/
Basically, I can make it to fill the eigth slot if we can't get enough people to get in, but I'd have to be gone after two hours or so, so you guys wouldn't want me playing something important, if I come along at all =/

*blows the dust off the thread which then causes massive coughing jag*
So, how about an Adventure of ye old Grand proportions this weekend?
I'd love to UW/FOW but the favor-thing makes it so fickle. ToPKs would be nice to revisit imho. No matter what, we need A PLAN.
Anyone interested and going to be around? If so, I'll post it in the real plan thread with a sign up even.

I'll be here, as always! I, personally, prefer ToPK since I've never made it to the end... even if the last failure was my fault!
