Thread: New Dwarrowdelf Raid/Instance Progression

Since the thread starter(Ordun) of "Dwarrowdelf Raid Progression(http://forums.lotro.com/showthread.php?391532-Dwarrowdelf-Raid-Progression)" is MIA at the moment. I hope this will be the server's new raid progression thread. This is not an e-peen thread so, do not disrespect other kin, no trolling, no QQ'ing or complaining. Lets enjoy the success and achievements of the kins in this server. The name of kins are arranged in alphabetical order only. And filikul raid will not be listed as this could possibly make the thread too long.

Thank you for doing this!

I really like how this raid progression thread has been setup. Thank you for doing it.

And grats to all the kins that are working hard and having fun making this server a truly great raiding server!

Not to be the voice of doom, but it's not a great raiding server (It's more along the lines of awful), and of all the kins on this list only one can really raid at all (with regularity & a full range of instances) now.

Agreed Eld,,,always has been far too few raiding kins on Dwarrowdelf and with the current shake up (kins merging, kins forming, kins falling apart) that the server is going through who knows what's going to be left when it all settles down. Interesting times.

Not really a voice of doom but you sound more bitter than anything just to be honest.

There are two kins on the server now that can and do raid regularly. Join one of the two (Ainur or BR) and find out for yourself. I'm in one of them. There used to be 4 ( I used to pug with some of them). In time it can get right back to where it was.

Keep in mind this was a F2P server and is still very young. We have accomplished a lot here. Not sure what dogging on it like that accomplishes.

Cool man i hope to see you guys on every completed raid list. It's good for the server, makes it more active, and imo fun.

Despite rumors to the contrary Reforged is still very much alive. We have lost a few unimportant people but our raid schedule is still full enough. Unless of course 1-2 ODs 1-2 VM and some smaller stuff a week is not enough to qualify as a raiding kin.

I'll tell you what will be left: Bryanmm soloing moors NPCs. He is the only constant.

Unimportant, heh. Yes dreadfully unimportant if you ignore the fact they founded the kinship and were largely responsible for all the accomplishments herein listed, which is an easy thing to forget I'm sure. But revisionist history aside, I'm glad to see Reforged has taken charge of its future and not bought into the naysayers.

As for qualifying as a raiding kin, there's no application form. Any kin that wants to call themselves a raiding kin and do raids can, which hopefully more will start doing. Different people have different expectations when they hear "raiding kin" though. Some will be satisfied with any content that happens to involve 12 people, since it's technically raiding. Others are in it for loot or challenges or whatever, and will set specific raids as benchmarks. Still others won't be satisfied unless they're raiding non-stop. Those with the latter expectation wouldn't be satisfied in Ainur either, which is fine. All that matters is you're recruiting the people who have the expectations you're able to fulfill, what you call the type of kin to communicate that is unimportant.

easy for you to say jac, lol you have a fancy Gold chest not easy to argue with that.


Shall i even mention the coconuts you inherited?

Ummmmm.....make that 5. The Knights Creed raids with Awakened every weekend. We usually do OD. Just because we're no longer inviting PUGs from glff doesn't mean that we're not active.

lol if the Alliance was actually a kin ?

If Awakened have downed any other wings besides wound, please do inform in this thread. So far i've only know about wound.

Too bad the shield kinda sucks, stats wise - if it had some morale it would be a million times better. :/

Oh well, it looks pretty awesome equipped.

Please add Hope is Kindled to OD tier 1 Disease... thank you.

Hele is a classic instance and like for all classic instance no trophy drops inside the instance. You have to barter for them at the classic skrimish vendor. The skull is 15 hele marks and 1800 SMs

Thanks for the info there mate...I wondered why they'd be selling the skull at the skirm yard.

Ainur cleared Draigoch t2 challenge mode last night!

Oops, just noticed you were all over it and already updated.

Balrog Riders did Draigoch T1, thanks.

Balrog Riders have also completed OD wound T2 challenge.

The "7 Hunters + Toa + Idras + another Guardian + two minis below 3k morale" Pug DID NOT complete the Vile Maw.

Please... to casters with less than 5k morale at lvl 65+... TO ANY CLASS that's below 5k morale at lvl 65 and above...

For the love of Peet's Coffee! Stack your Vitality! It's okay to have more morale! This isn't WoW! You can't have 300 morale and 12,000 power and expect not to die when something sneezes at you! PLEASE!!! I BEG OF YOU!!! BALANCE OUT YOUR STATS!!!!!!

/rant

I guess if we're tracking this still... Ainur 6/6 OD t2 Challenges.
