Lots of good times here for certain. Many aforementioned. Jaros and Viri got me good quite a number of times!
I think before the tier implementation, on the new port code, Malfestus was the only one who completed the quest for the Orcrist. I was the second if I remember, but a bit later, after that Exodus, Virisin, Jumjum at the time?, Robert, Lionheart, Jason, and Erwin (not positive) followed, uncertain on the exact order anymore, just remember being the first after a very long time of nobody getting it. I think it took me getting it to set Viri on having to finally finish it. I did it prior to return wands.. my way of doing it was a simple alias and bring a pet and my mount. I simply gave tons of potions to my mount and pet, and ordered them to drop them in the room next to the boss, and a simple alias to go into room, behead, retreat west, quaff potions, and repeat. each behead may have done like .5 % of his health, but after enough rotations he surely went down.
Remembering how hard Greenie was back in old port, I wouldn't have liked to see Balrog back then...
Gojira was a tough mob, but I didn't beat him until I was a GM and had damn near infinite casts of cure critic, so just did tank as long as I could, with a high wimpy, then heal in between.
Voltron I would say was one of the toughest, not as much at first but more so after he was 'fixed' once upon a time you could blackjack his hounds, and just fight him one on one, but I think they were eventually made unblackjackable. So you needed another way to fight him which was attack a hound and then have it 'hunt' you to the next room. then you do that and kill each hound on at a time until it was just V. Now I believe that's not a possibility and you have to pretty much fight all 5 at the same time making it a lot of damage against you. Damage shaming even Goji. This is all what I remember, may or may not be the case.
I still think Erwin and I are the only two to have found all of the zone flags currently in the game. Virisin was close behind us and I'm certain could find the remainder of the flags if he set out to do it..
I was always looking forward to finishing the 12 deeds of Hercules, I know there is a few others out there that got to the same point and I'm sure want the same thing!
There are probably lots of other things out there, but those are what come to mind atm. Can't wait to get back into the game. Only 4 months left of this deployment! At work I can't connect to the game due to security settings, can only get to the forums here. And after work I only have roughly 30min at the MWR computers to talk to my wife and get on the game. Definitely excited to try Avalon!
