Thread: The Great Crickhollow Raid and Elder Game Instace Progression List

Hello and welcome to the GCREGIPL!

Recently there has been improvements in our young but great server in terms of End-game attempts and successes across various instances which were normally that are outside of the GB Trio, Helegrod marks, Annuminas Marks and School/Library which everyone seems to be doing around the clock.

My purpose here is to create a list of what kins are attempting and completing so we can share strategies, advices and cheers. And booze.

So if your Kinship, Alliance, Group of Friends has done any of this content, please reply to this topic and I'll add it to the list. Please just comment if the clear was in Hard Mode (Challenge) where applicable.

Let's show other servers that we are growing and we are growing strong. Let's prove that we do more than Hele/GB Box/School runs.

Let the games begin!

Thank you for the reply. Post updated.

The Sixth House has also done 16th Hall and Dungeons of Dol Guldur both on easy mode. Thanks for the updates!

dungeons and dark delvings are very hard to do on HM...the rest in my opinion are easy.xD

no boss is safe with Lusitanius and Friends around...

lol next BG?

Added Dúrchest to the list.

The twins in BG death

The Sixth House:

-Brisket

Thank you Brisket.

I know there are more end-game kinships out there! Waiting on your feedback.

We tried the Lieutenant last night, but failed miserably.

Can't wait until next time!

I know there are some kins out there trying for the Watcher and DN!

Even if you have downed a few bosses, you can report here.

Let's make our server a better server!

Of course it counts, congratulations on your achievement.

Update with Enedwaith instance cluster list (In Their Absence).

Please fill in as apropriate and i'll update the main topic.

Does Pug groups count


Well Grant Stairs HM is pug-gable without a tank, or a champ in the group.
Did this last night with 2 Mini (61,58), 65 Hunter, 65 Burg , 65 LM, 59 Captain.

Anyway

Ewie's pug group or pug groups I joined.
T1 Sari-Suma
T1 Lost Temple.

Yep, i guess PUG's can count. But i would rather track Kinship or Alliance's Progressions. But i'll add them. ;-)

The Lusitanius and Friends Alliance got the Fear Wing down last night!

Eat my Shorts, DB!

Contratulations to Spyra for Crickhollow's First Ever Symbol of the Elder King!

As for Fightclub, is that the name of you Kinship or your Alliance's Name?

Updated with Fightclub's info.

Friends of Larry:

OD Disease T1 Cleared.

Friends of Larry featuring Sepp finished Forochel T2 tonight. No challenge though (since the stupid guardians were feeling rather peaceful).

Can write Friends of Larry up for NC and Stoneheight T2 with challenge and Lost Temple T1 as well.

OD Knights of cool (Pug)
Has a few feathers ruffled.
It would be more properly labeled as Fightclub
Great progress by all!

1st attempt with 2 people new to T2. Excellent work!

Congratulations on T2!

P.S. Holy messed up inventory!

Well should add to this that with another Random pug group Did SG Hard mode.

Was very interesting as a only one person had done the instance, but was a lot of fun.
We died a lot , First boss went smoothly and we had only one person dead after the fight.

We died a few times in the corridors from LM bumping a few over the wall.
The lightning boss got us a few times until we had him figured out.

HM boss was a real struggle, and one of the members had to leave, so we got in a LM to help at the end, the LM
have done it a few times and this helped a lot for learning the mechanics of the fight. And at the end we succeeded.
but got a hunter in and the last boss was a breeze - completed it.

All in all a very nice instance, my first time doing SG, never got to it on my hunter, and definitely worth it.

Will do this again , need the flask for my burglar, have to boost my fate way to low.


After this due to some disagreement we lost the LM again,

What is very encouraging is seeing lots of new players completing end game instances.


Got into a raid on DG, we got at least past the gauntlet phase, but first boss was too much.

SG can be a blast with a good grp.
1st in DG is rough, after the gauntlet, that respawns =)

Friends of Larry with some crafty pugs completed OD wound, fear and disease again, but tonight all of them one after another (took only about 5 hours). Onwards to a bright (and most probably poisonous) future!

Grand Stair (HM and Full)
Forges (HM)
Fil Gashan
Skumfil
