lol...u spelled befallen, beffalen.

some fallen person has in their bio, that the guild has killed all contested. I think ya'll smoke some crack pipes in the wee hours of the morning.

T5 was probably 70% Shadowed Strife to Fallens 30% contested kills, I'll give em that.

T6 Fallen killed prehaps 3 Tree spawns in LT, thats basically it. granted we got smoked as soon as EC came over aswell

T7 KOS Total Domination, Fallen saw prehaps a monolith, if that, all of KoS.

T7 EOF Grats Fallen. 3 Tiers to get there, and 0 competition, but you sure did dominate.

T8 Slow to start. 1 instanced 1st, but got yourselves composed for what appears to be another special olympics finish


I've got nothing against Fallen, been your competitior since the very beginning cept those few months I was on another server during EoF.

I just like facts.

WHAT! WHAT! Motherfuckers yo yo! (<-lol...I dunno)

[Felkroth]

hey btw. Can I app prehaps? I've got a curious fascination with wanting to see what its like on the other side. Always been against ya wondering what its like with ya.

Before i get bored again, get a new computer and start playing AoC at least.

Not really how I remember it. Original Fallen, led by Thakras, server firsted almost all of the instances and a few contested. Thak bailed to SS, and Fallen collapsed. In April of that year Fallen rebuilt and by June had killed every contested in the game. We also got disco on the Gem of the Feerrott from Spirits of the Lost. For a while the ratio was about 50-50, with kills switching every week. Thakras bailed from SS at which point Fallen took almost everything, then it switched back and forth again till the expansion hit. I have all of it frapsed, as I was running the website at the time, and we used the video to recruit.

We got 6 tree spawns, almost all on Saturday afternoons. We got the contested versions of both dragons, and I really only remember that because our inquisitor raid leader accidentally looted the no-trade chests. The spider fucked us brutally over and over. Then EC pwned the server, totally. Contested went down the toilet although we still managed to clear all the instanced content before the end of the expansion.

T7 KOS Total Domination, Fallen saw prehaps a monolith, if that, all of KoS.

Agreed. This was horrible expansion for us, we went through about 6 MT's and made no progress on contested at all.

T7 EOF Grats Fallen. 3 Tiers to get there, and 0 competition, but you sure did dominate.

DoG and CoS took the first two avatars on the server. EC showed up at both of those, and several of the following (which Fallen killed). By the last few months Reborn were regularly showing up and even had a few mobs orange although they never killed any. CoS also showed to quite a few. At the very end of EOF we had Deus Ex Machina, CoS, Reborn, Fallen, and one of those flash-in-the-pan guilds show up at Fear. So I wouldn't say 0 competition.

T8 Slow to start. 1 instanced 1st, but got yourselves composed for what appears to be another special olympics finish

Yup.

We've had bumps, ups and downs, but we've been around since t5 and we're still here now. Not a lot of guilds can say that any more.

Especially when you're taking raid guilds.

Now in reality, cause I continue to hear it mentioned, that Gem of Ferrott really didn't mean anything. We had cleared the zone without that dropping before ya'll got it. But ya, T5 was hard to judge i guess cause it was really the only time that ya'll just like hardcore died for awhile.

Also I completely forgot about the PoF dragons. DoF was frustrating, historically i would call it the beginning of Befallens special olympics finishes. We floundered to get most of the contested kills we got, Terrorantula never really was 'smooth' for us, and was competiting against all the tells Xede would send out recruiting us for Dissolution.

[Crychtonn - Bylar]

Gem was pure random bullshit. No one can use it as bragging rights unless they got real lucky and it dropped the first time the zone was cleared. Which didn't happen on most servers. One of the more retarded things SOE ever did.

That was my point with my comment earlier and i give you guys props for that.

I think Feithen wins...Feithen is my all time favoritest scottish guild leader. I really dont care who killed what and all that, cuz I mean well aint getting us any job interviews or pay raises...But I had fun the first couple months of RoK.

The new style of solo questing from 70-80 got tedious (especially thrue the Rillis area), but wasnt that big of a deal honestly. I never EVER had a desire to be a guild leader again after I was GL of CoS from T5-KoS, just too much work and stress IMO.

Unfortunately tho I was put in a position were I had no choice, DeMs guild leader was a young kid at the time, not really cut out to be a leader, and as such Me Esar and Kriddle pretty much ran the guild and did everything anyways. I didnt mind too horribly because I got an opportunity to stay home on paternity leave for 6 months, and really wtf else is there to do after the kids hit the sack other then raid or watch tv...and tv sucks.

When DeMs leader at the time (Nueb) finally went all emo and left the server with his in game girlfriend, we got forced into being leaders even tho none of us was interested in the job. All said and done tho I dont think we didnt do too bad as a guild. We took a roster with 90percent of the people never killing an EoF contested before and did fairly well rolling thrue content in ROK.

When I went back to work in May my time became limited and I was already getting exhausted with the retuning of raid mobs week in and week out. It didnt add any element of enjoyment to the game, just made raiding annoying. Some things were minor changes to be sure, but they just made no sense and seemed like adding unneeded changes to annoy people.

Like when they made the slight change to Nexona were if your clicker died he couldnt click anymore....I mean wtf why change shit like that...

All the other itemization issues that have been discussed to death on this forum add in too, then include the horrible scripted encounters of VP...(Milyex, Skygazer) t/2 original leviathon. While I like that the devs were trying to create more then tank and spank encounters for us to raid, really they just succeeded in making tedious mobs that no one enjoyed having to kill.

For all of the expansion other then a healthy sense of competition between us and Fallen, we managed to stay very civil and in many cases pretty good friends together. Anywhos dont mean to ramble on here, just got 3 new offers on Chapel and took some time discussing him with them. At least I wasnt the first person to derail the thread And hey if the game is still enjoyable to you guys in Fallen Feithen Im happy your doing well on the content.

damn...i agree with dakkota. your kinda..um...buzz-killy-ish chapel
