Book 1, Chapter 1

[Greebo]

Caerwyn and Aeldeth are at lvl 15 and holding off on "Book 1, Chapter 1", set in Bree, where you accompany Strider on a mission.

We're looking for ppl to join us sometime. Probably not tonight because Carol is exhausted, and tomorrow is out cause I'm flying, but Wed or later would be great.

[Sir Rubi]

Gladly! Sounds like fun - I don't think we have plans for Wednesday, yet.

[Caranthir]

Hey,

I can bring Typpin whenever.

[Greebo]

So you are all up to this stage?

[Quervo]

I am only level 11 and still in Gonodlan (something like that second "town" out from Thorin's Hall) how do you know when you get to the point of Book 1 Chapter 1?

[Sir Rubi]

Ohh, I thought you were talking about the end of the prologue before Book 1, Chapter 1. I misread that.

I'd still like to help, if I can?

[Caranthir]

Hey,

I think Typp's pretty close. I might be able to finish off the Intro quests before you want to do this. If not, I'm always willing to help out.

[Quervo]

If you two dont mind the wait - do you get pointed to that quest chain on your own - or do you have to find it...

I have some group quests i can hope to solo right now. (Wont be on tonight)

[Greebo]

You will know you're at Chap 1 Book 1 when your main storyline quest (Epic) says "Chapter 1, Book 1".

We would prefer to help others catch up to us, than to get further ahead of others, so if we don't have a troup of ppl ready, call on us to help you advance. ;)

[Caranthir]

Hey,

I think Typpin's just about there. He just got sent off to talk to Barliman Butterbur.

[Sir Rubi]

Katy and I tried to take "Midnight Rescue" last night (which, I think, is the last in the Prologue - I can't safely check from here :( ) and couldn't handle the adds (my level abouts, stronger than average) the few times we tried it, so it's easily going to be something we'll need a larger group to finish.

How many members to a fellowship? Maybe if we can have Elliad/Aananla caught up along with others, we can make this a LoW Dourhand Gangbang** :twisted: :twisted: [halibut] :twisted: :twisted: Not sure on scheduling... Should we have a separate signup?


** Which will be turnabout, for them. Our arses hurt from what they did to us - it wasn't pretty.

[Greebo]

Dunno the cap. I'm flying tonight and can't help, but Caylor may be able to...not sure.l

[Yuglooc]

Zyzzyva is now level 10, so I suspect he still has a ways to go. He's working primarily on Shire quests; among his other tasks, he does have to see the mayor of Bree-town.

[Caranthir]

Hey,

Got Typpin to Book 1, Chapter 1 last night, so he's good to go.

[Quervo]

I have the quest to send me to Bree-land.

Yarb is level 11 just shy of level 12. Should I move on for the more quests or work on the ones i have now?

[Greebo]

I think you probably will want to finish up the quests in your starting area first, before heading to Bree in earnest, but since travel to/fro bree is 1 silver, we can hop around quite easily.


So - we doing B1C1 w/ Strider tonight then?

[Serani]

Rubi and I just need to finish off some Dourhand dwarves. Can we get help with that first?

[Greebo]

NO!!!!!

Well, ok. ;)

[Aananla]

I might be on after 8:00pm cst, so if I can help I will.

[Sir Rubi]

NO!!!!!

Well, ok. ;)

Only one "No" and it was in normal font size?

You softy :)

[Caranthir]

Hey,

I should be on sometime around 5:30 CST, so Typpin is available to help kill dwarves if you need him.

[Quervo]

Me, Aan, and Zy have all made it to Book 1 Chapter 1 I am guessing... Go find a man called Strider.

[Sir Rubi]

Heh, I was falling asleep at the keyboard last night - but we got three out of Prologue :)

[Greebo]

Yes, going to find Strider is the beginning of Chapter 1 Book 1. If you stay bound in your home town, you can fast travel to Bree from there for 1s. So there's no real need to head to bree until you're ready to do that quest, except that so far, all of the level 15 class quests seem to be based in Bree.

My suggestion is to work on your lowest level region quests and get them knocked out for now, and the next time a group is available, you'll have no problem getting to bree quickly.

Heck we may be able to repeat ch1 b1 tonight if needed.

[Yuglooc]

That's what I'll probably do. My quest book is nearly full, mainly with quests from the Shire. I'll likely work on getting some of those out of the way.

[Quervo]

Aye... I am going to either knock out some of my deed chains or I will finish up current quests and head into elf lands for some quests

[Yuglooc]

I am now ready to start Book 1, Chapter 1. I did try it solo over the weekend, but failed (my escort died).

Unfortunately, my work hours changed recently, meaning the earliest I can start on weeknights is 8:30 PM EDT. If I can get into a PUG to catch up with you guys, I'll do it; otherwise I'll set something up here for next weekend.

[Aananla]

I am at the same spot Yuglooc. I have been working on slimming down my quest journal, but could be ready for this next time we have enough folks on.

[Sir Rubi]

If we can't get you guys moving in the next few days (what with RL scheduling, RL issues, etc), it might be a good idea to try to schedule, just to make SURE it's not missed. With the level spread, tearing through these chapters is really a breeze and a few of them are short enought that they're almost anti-climactic, if you know what I mean.

I've been left behind - goodness knows I don't want to leave anyone behind, you know?

[Caranthir]

Hey,

I don't think I'll be online tonight, but whenever I am I'm always available to help knock these quests out.

[Yuglooc]

I am at the same spot Yuglooc. I have been working on slimming down my quest journal, but could be ready for this next time we have enough folks on.
It's more numbers rather than levels... a full group of level 10s should be able to get through the first one with no problem. The key is keeping the escort alive - without any AoE abilities (either melee or taunt), I had no chance.

[Yuglooc]

Thanks for the help last night! Zyzzyva is now up to Book 1, Chapter 7.
