This Thursday at 7pm EST an expedition will form to investigate this strange animal behavior.
Stay Tuned to the Luna Event Crier and this Post for more information as it comes available. |

I think that since EM Bennu made extra effort to come to tavern night that the community should come out in droves to support his first event!
... just my opinion  _________________ Dryzzid#5091 | 74503058 |

Agreed. It says a lot that he made the effort and he deserves the same consideration. |

Fiction update for the event:
EM Bennu wrote: |
The influx of animals from the forest against the walls had the Trinsic guard on edge. Not simply the guard, but the captains as well. Information was being tightly controlled as a matter of ceremony, not that there was any information to be had. All anyone knew was the animals were afraid, and they were fleeing the forest away from one predator and toward another.
What would cause prey to prefer one predator over another?
Then something happened that nearly broke the panic. The guards on the wall felt it first, a slow rumbling that started off as a whisper. Then the trees started moving in a line toward the city gates. Something was coming, and it was big.
From the forest came a massive being of unimaginable strength, it stopped on the road at the entrance to the city and went no farther. The city guard and captains simply stood and watched, too afraid to act.
The city fathers of Trinsic request that all comers please meet at the entrance to Trinsic Trammel this evening at 7pm EST to approach this being and ascertain his intent.

I've died about 50 times, there is too much lag, can hardly move. The monsters seem to have either a range attack or some aura thing where they do 40+ damage on a 70s suit per hit. Makes it a terror to reclaim corpse body. These events are not good for warriors, lol. The entire area is two layers of corpses |

I took 99 damage on max resist suit in one hit a few times. They seem to share the teleport trick those giant turkeys did, not to mention ant lion acid spit. It's still going on. The lag was so bad I had to leave. I did hold out for an hour though. There's a gate at the EM building in Brit. |

I didn't get on until late. I tried to find where it was going on but must have missed it completely. Oh well maybe next time. _________________ Grand Duchess Molly Kaldhel

I locked up and couldn't move for a time, and then I died. Then I logged out, hehe.
I heard it went well though, I just couldn't take the lag. _________________ Dryzzid#5091 | 74503058 |

I took my Fencer (Veneficus' skills aren't high enough to do anything at the moment). The lag was incredible. I was able to move one tile every minute or so. Then I would lag again. Then I would die. There was some area affect around the monster, so that even if you weren't close, you could be killed quite easily. One hit would take me down to about 20 life (full resist suit and HP in the 120s). I never noticed when I got damaged because there was no floating damage # over my head, I would have to keep looking at my status I died more than 10 times (4 of which occurred as insta-kills after being rezzed).
It was a great turnout but I don't think the EMs considered the best way to handle all of the lag. _________________ Veneficus, The Blue Mage |
