I love how people like to get off on belittling our success. If you had the opportunity you would have done the same thing. I am extremely proud that we accomplished a kill of a difficult mob with probably HALF the force used by others to kill Ventani. It amazes me that 32 people from all over the world can come together and work as a team so well. We spent hours working on strategy and we were rewarded with success.Quote:

And as for spite? Its no secret that events have been accelerated by the disintegration of the IGB. But that's about it, it was either us setting the Sleeper free or someone else. Although I can say that we did get some great motivation by the begging of a [guild name witheld] officer to not destroy their Sceptre of Destruction E*Bay farm. Ultimately, it was about us doing something fun for US and US ALONE. Each of us had a heroic moment in that fight; I'm proud of mine.

Well said Seme!
Alright for you brainless fucking morons - here you go.
Selfish?? HA! You fucking idiots. I think it's pretty selfish of you to try to tell me I have no right waking the Sleeper. Why not? Give me one good reason.
I worked my ass off to be where I am today. And one of the few things I wanted to do bad in EQ was release the Sleeper. And boy was it fucking fun to see that script go off. Who are you to say I should wait until you deck your whole guild out in Primal's and SoD's and Monk robes before I release the Sleeper?
So, sorry, It's not my problem you newbie guilds suck so much. If anyones selfish it's all you people calling US selfish for releasing the Sleeper.
So what it boils down to is; You were too slow. You lost out. Not my problem. If you had worked your ass off as much as I did - you would have saw the Warders and had your SoD like me.
Fucking whiny newbie guilds. Wah. I didn't get my SoD because I was too fucking slow. Your fault. Not mine. Not to mention the game was designed to be like this. Bye morons.
*edit* Oh yeah. You all can flame me for this. I pushed my guild hard to release the Sleeper.

OMG OMG.. Daisee has revealed the true motivation we had behind releasing the sleeper. :DQuote:

Drakky.. /bow
Ah, Drakky, diplomatic as always.
Don't worry, [guild name withheld], I'm sure you'll find another source of ebayable loot.
and Keanued 'Whoah.' I'm suprised the sleeper was able to make it to SS with Opiie there ^ - ^
~ Way to take care of business.
I find it ironic and highly amusing, that just about the time the Sleeper was being freed, I was watching Godfather Pt. II...
"I know it was you Hoss... you broke my heart!"
Drakky is my hero =\
You can still go to ST and get primals every three days, and there is the prismatic scale quest as well.
We don't need to be the first guild in EQ to do something, it was just fun as hell to do it and I don't hsagadf care if other guilds have done it.
BTW... for everyone wondering. You can go to ST *NOW* and start killing those golems. The Master of the Guard is up (and I'll assume all the rest). Have at it.
Hearing that they were going to release the sleeper almost had me and hammur reactivate our accts just to kill Ventani, and release the sleeper, then cancel the accts again.
BUT i dont have a key... :D
Kick ass Hoss, dont listen to people who are upset about this, you guys rocked, i just hope someone was trying Yelinak...
Didnt someone tell you all this, "You will NEVER release the Sleeper" ?
pwned
;)
Yelinak was dead, but a bunch of people went to SS to get killed by Kerafym!
waaaaaahbulance
My personal reason for wanting to wake the sleeper was this:
killing Ventani with another Warder up (notice the toughest dragon aruond is called a Warder? Level 60 Ranger = Warder, coincidence? I think not) would have been like "yay yay WOOT GRATS GUYS!". And then you celebrate a little less next time, and less the next, and then it's routine.
But killing Ventani and watching Kerafym awaken was something that gets your pulse racing. Something that gets you more excited about anything you've accomplished in EQ since the day you got that SMR 2 years ago, or when you got your first ever planar item. Being part of something that will never ever happen again on the server was a true, exhilirating rush, something that's not so easy to get when you've been almost everywhere and killed almost everything.
It was worth it.
Grats you all! :D
Good accomplishment, and they're right in the assumption that if they didn't do it someone would have. Eventually someone would've done it, and although I didn't get my shot to see the Warders, there's still hope :P
I did some reading up on the stuff, and although I can't confirm it for sure, there's a quest to put the Sleeper back to sleep although the quest is, of course, broken. (duh)
I do actually like the script, although I realize everyone's dismay at not being able to get some items, and others being alot harder to get, but just look at it this way, it puts a little uniqueness out there in this "every sub-catagory of guilds has the same equipment" game. I know it's alot easier to say in my position not going to ST any time soon, and everyone would've liked to get it, but maybe if the putting the Sleeper back to sleep quest is put in, and worth it, (Lord Yelinak says, 'Bring me a robe from the warders and I'll give you a 10% chance to wake the Sleeper, k thx ph4t l3wts!~') then everyone'll be able to get it sometime.
Anyways, grats again. ^-^
Tilea said it far better then I ever could have.
"The Beast in me is caged by frail and fragile bonds..."
Most of you know who I am. For those who don't, I'm a Hoss tank. I've played EQ pretty much non-stop for two years. I've seen a lot of zones; some hot and some gay as hell.
Getting into the Sleeper's Tomb is a combined effort. There are a number of guilds who've been able to defeat the dragons that drop the item needed for the key...but getting your key is only the first of the many that will be required to raid the Tomb.
Once inside, getting to and surviving the trip to the Warders is another massive undertaking. Some guilds have farmed a few hundred keys and have no problem throwing vast numbers of players at the mobs...calling the kill a 'win' /shrug if that's what strokes your nob, more power to you.
Other guilds use elite coordination...maximizing the efforts of all classes in order to accomplish with 'few' that others would require 'zerg' numbers.
Killing the Warders was not about fucking another guild out of their loot. It wasn't about 'payback' to Vindication for going 'FFA' (which was bound to happen sooner or later anyway.) It wasn't done because we 'hate' everyone else. For me, it was about pride.
I'm glad as fuck I was there to be part of that event. I'm proud as hell I'm in a guild capable of WORKING TOGETHER with enough coordination to pull it off.
If Verant wants to put in 'no respawn' mobs, and that pisses you off...take it up with their Customer Service...the phone number's on their website.

p.s. I dont have a Sceptre of Destruction either.
