January 2008 News

Finally, some time to write an update! As expected, my play time during the week has been practically non-existent and although I didn't have much time last weekend either, I do expect to be able to spend some time during the day and over the weekends in Dereth. My schedule clears up significantly by the start of April (I think, anyway... I'll only be out until 10 twice a week and most of my work should be done by them).
Patch Day is coming up tomorrow. Expect the servers to be down from 8-3 ET roughly. The patch day thread is up and running, complete with teaser images and articles. Looks like Aerbax's Virindi are going into people's minds and dredging up their darkest fears. I've already changed the quest page in preparation for the coming patch, but I really don't expect to make much of a dent in the new quests any time soon.
Congrats to Ci and Wulf, who are both newly minted Colosseum Champions! Well done to you two and thanks to everyone who has donated rares and whatnot to help with the cause. I wish I could have joined you, but such is life...
We are due for another Harbinger quest this weekend, so I've scheduled one for Sunday at 4 PM. That should give you plenty of time to track down your Harby item. I still have a lot of Bow items, but that's about it for the skills people typically want. Check the quest thread for details and the guide.

Happy New Year! Here's wishing you all the best in 2008!
This year will be a busy one for me. I won't be getting home until about 10 PM ET Mondays through Thursdays, so I probably won't see much of some of you during the week. Fortunately there are always weekends!
Last weekend's Harby quest went nicely, but because it was during the holiday, it wasn't too well attended by Paladins. I'm considering another trip in two weeks, but I think it would make more sense to just keep on a monthly schedule. In retrospect, I probably should have waited until this weekend, but what can you do... Next weekend's quest is still to be determined - if you have a request, please let me know.
