The Hogger raid event

[Chrysanthe]

Well, sadly, Hogger went down way too fast for me to take a screenshot... meh. I guess it was the 70s running around there and killed him.... idk
But still, I took some screenies of the whole thing.. got DCd on my main and had troubles coming back in, while on the way to SW from IF via the tram....

Thanks Zite!

Hmmm.. right now, I can't access your images you posted, Vyndree, I can't even see the thumbnails.. is ImageShack down perhaps?

[Adurna]

Not multiboxing, but I leveled a rogue to 16 on Archimonde so I could follow and watch the event safely. Added Vyndree and Suvega to my friends list so I would notice when it was time to move out, turns out the cloud of gnomes was a clear enough sign.

I tried to stay out of the way and take pictures of everything I could, only posting a couple here but there are more uploaded to this Photobucket album ('http://s334.photobucket.com/albums/m436/Adurna-WoW/Hogger%20Raid/'). Only killed a few mobs when they looked like they would cause some inconvenient deaths (spider attacking a gnome on the way to Hogger, some Defias respawns while everyone was focused on the horde). Logged off around the time everyone was vanishing for STV.

Here are a couple of the pictures I got of the event:

Was so neat to finally see multiboxers in action... Saw a shammy trio in AV once but they promptly blew me up, couldn't make it back for screenshots before the BG ended.

[Aerilux]

Ok, uploaded more of my screenshots here they are:

On the way to the tram from ironforge, with a stream of people in tow.

After downing Hogger we headed over to Sentinel Hill to see if we could find some harder mobs to kill (the harder mobs turned out to be lvl 70 horde rogue and hunter)

[Diamndzngunz]

I was really looking forward to this, and I checked the thread today befor the time was set then it slipped my mind.. :(

[Sajuuk]

Thank you to everyone who came and helped set this up. I had lots of fun.

[Carnage]

Was awesome, although i was on trial accounts:

First i couldnt whisper the mage for a inv / portal :)
Then i couldnt whisper vyndryy for a inv to the guild
Then i couldnt accept the guild inv :)
Then i couldnt whisper the people doing the raid invites
Then i couldnt invite my clones to the raid
Then i couldnt talk in raid chat

So then when i finally got my guys all in a raid, someone decided to go on a kicking spree - "wonxb has left the raid". Noooooo i thought to myself, so i decided to go ungrouped - walking through westfall, it took me untill we was at senital hill to notice that one of my chars had been dead for quite some time. So i started to run to my corpse, when i got there i noticed that i could have spirit ressed - so i accepted my corpse and proceeded to get myself killed and then spirit ressed :)

morale of the story, trial accounts suck - damn gold spammers :<

Well, I wish there was a way to permanently ban those spammers... for all eternity... X( X( X(

[Crayonbox]

Oh my god! I am so jealous I missed this! I was bogged down with work the entire day and couldn't make it. It looks like it was a total blast!

[aNiMaL]

Nice gettogether
<3 screenies

[DarkslayrX]

Looks awesome - sorry i missed it.

[Knobley]

The turn out was fantastic. Thanks to Vyndree et.al. for organizing this.

I had a great time. For some reason the thing that sticks out most in my mind was the matter-of-fact way Vyndree said "Buttgravey" on the vent server.

I hope we'll have more events like this.

[Vyndree]

the matter-of-fact way Vyndree said "Buttgravey" on the vent server.

I had to summon him twice. ;) Heh.

I went from over 200 shards to 40 at the end. :P All worth it, though.
