Good Bye Combine, Hello Druzzil!
Barring unforseen circumstances, The Combine server will be merged with Druzzil Ro tomorrow morning at 5am (in the good time zone). Anyone who has played on The Combine server in the last 5 months knows that this is way overdue. It’s going to be both a sad day and a great day for everyone on The Combine. Nonetheless, it’s finally happening tomorrow.
Next week will also mark another significant event, <Realm of Insanity’s> push into the Tower of Discord. With every other event in SoD currently defeated, it’s time for RoI to do work in end zone of the expansion. If you are interested in being part of RoI as we defeat this expansion then I have good news for you!. We are currently recruiting most classes. Here is a summary of what is currently available:

Let’s do some math

EQUALS
The Brothers Zek event in SoD is probably the only event we have encountered thus far that actually offered any substantial challenge. Although, that can be debated, because some people might say that any event which can be defeated by 43 people in just 2 nights worth of attempts is not very challenging. Whether you believe that this fight is hard or not is irrelevant, what is important is that <Realm of Insanity> defeated it this week along with Eriak’s Downfall and Rallos Returns. This makes us the 17th guild serverwide to defeat these events, which is no small accomplishment for a server that started from scratch less than 3 years ago.
If you are interested in applying to RoI, please get in contact with Gindainy or Swag as soon as possible. If you are interested in cybering please ;t druzzil.Lesia.
/guildremove Ssrath
These past two weeks, <Realm of Insanity> finally figured out the secret strat to defeating all the mobs in Korafax. The secret is just to guild remove Ssrath before every fight and then the mobs will fall over for you. You might be saying to yourself, that doesn’t make sense, and to be honest it doesn’t, but it’s about as logical as some of the mechanics are in these SoD raids. It’s almost like the devs said to themselves, “Let’s make this fight so if the third warrior in group 2 of the raid window doesn’t tank the mob on the east side of the room THE WHOLE RAID GETS DEATHTOUCHED”
For reals though, this expansion is a cakewalk so far. Our next encounter is supposed to be the hardest one in the expansion so who knows, it might take us 2 whole nights worth of attempts and possibly even a raid of 42 people to defeat, but I doubt it.
Anyhow, here’s some pics of us in action.
And the biggest laugh we’ve had in a long time…
RoI gives you the finger (literally)
Remember that one time where SoE promised something to The Combine server but then failed miserably at delivering that promise? You know, like that one time where they told us TSS would open when we beat PoR but it ended up not happening till almost 2 months later. Or that time we were promised an update timeline which never happened. Or the time we were told we’d be able to participate in all of the living legacy raids but we only allowed to do two of them. Or the time they told us a week before SoD opening that we would be getting made into a live server, yet it took them about 2 months before we were allowed to have server transfers to The Combine like all the rest of the live servers. Or, going way back, the time when Quarm had to be killed 4 times before GoD was opened on The Sleeper server.
Yeah well, you would think that eventually we would get used to constantly getting abused by Sony, but for some reason we always hold out hope that maybe just one time they will do something right. When the server merge was first announced in December many of us thought that Sony had finally stopped treating us like a redheaded step child. We thought maybe, just maybe we would finally be treated with some sort of respect from Sony. But alas, just a few hours before our scheduled and much needed server merge, Sony announced that they would yet again slap our server in the face by delaying the merge. Moreover, they straight up lied to us about announcing the new date this week. For some reason a lot of us still feel surprised by this blatant disrespect, but deep down we all knew something like this was going to happen.
Anyway, that’s enough about how bad Sony is, why don’t we talk about how awesome <Realm of Insanity> is. Let’s see, since the last time this site was updated RoI has defeated two new Everquest monstars. We kicked things off by slaying the Crystalline Tyranont last week and successfully protecting the dwarf leaders. Note that it wasn’t our choice to save the dwarves, if we could have still gotten the loot and killed the dwarves, we definitely would have let the stunties get rickrolled. Then, earlier this week we defeated Pallorax, the Soul Slayer in Korafax, earning some big fancy items. All this while we’re still raiding with high 30s or low 40s because incompetent Sony hasn’t merged us yet. Oh well, at least this way we don’t need to farm as many tower keys!
Enough QQ, now it’s time for the pewpew~
