Regarding the WitchieFest, delves and public dungeons are horribly overfarmed and crowded during the event. WBs and dolmens are busy but plenty of time for everyone to get hits in. A couple places have a dolmen and WB within sight of each other (Glenumbra and Deeshan) and make pretty good hunting grounds for groups.

Depending on our numbers, a group dungeon is good also. Direfrost Keep is Redbeard's pledge that day and is a very good choice. The dungeon is one of the easier ones (Buffy could solo it if not for the silly requirement to have two players stand on two pressure plates at one point).

Just some thoughts. Other ideas would be most welcome. For example, anyone who wants to lead a WB run to bag several WBs could also be fun.

Edit: Oh, the time of the meet is normally 5PM EST (4PM CST I think). I can flex earlier or later. Ghastley said he is traffic dependent so that sounds like earlier might not work for him and it sounds like a later time might not work for Khajiit.

4 should give us an hour before we’ll need to log, but that should give us enough time to run a dungeon if we get on it right away.

Cincy and I will most certainly be there. I'm down for a group dungeon if we have the right amount of people for it. Where are we going to start out at? And have we decided on the normal time then?

EDIT: Khajiit, do you have wares voice chat on Discord? I am curious as to what the desertwalker sounds like.

I was never able to get it working, unfortunately. I may play with it tomorrow and see if I can get it working. I know it can be done, but the Discord interface is wonky with ESO.

1. If I read the constraints properly, it looks like going early might not work for ghastley getting through traffic to join us and that going later would not give Khajiit enough time to play. So, it seems like staying with the normal time of 5PM EST may be for the best. I suggest we gather at the guild hall (mALX's primary residence).

2. Discord. When several of us first got it, we tried (and failed) to make it interface with ESO in game. So what I do is run it in the background separately. I simply minimize the game for a few moments if I need to touch anything with Discord while in game. That seems to work well as the game minimizes and comes back up nicely and the only times I access Discord in game are simply to join or exit a voice channel.

Actually my traffic issues are more variability, than time. My route home has bridge construction that make it unpredictable. We could do earlier, and I'd just leave a bit earlier, too, (and still be late.) tongue.gif

Khajiit = King Coin couldn't get his mike working either; but he was able to hear us on the Discord while playing and he would just type his answers in the Chat Box (Chorrolites Guild Chat) so we could all see them. If you need to do that it is perfectly understandable. It helps if you are on Discord to hear what we are doing next; which direction to go, etc. Also; Uleni couldn't get his to work; and he sometimes drops in to say "Hi" on the Discord (as does Elizabeth Hollow!)

One good place to go is in Deshaan = Forgotten Crypts (Public Dungeon) has numerous bosses in it; there is a Dolmen right outside the door of it; and a Delve right beside the Dolmen so we would have plenty to do for Plunder Skulls all in one small spot!

Public dungeons are cake for Brenna, she routinely invades Bad Man’s Hollow for the Witches Fest Dremora Skull for public dungeons. I would like for us to do a group dungeon so we can get the Dremora Skull for big dungeons.

I've been taking Pia through Fungal Grotto 1 every night (after 2 a.m. Eastern Time every night) with just one other girl I play with a lot. It is the easiest group dungeon and gives you a bunch of purple Plunder Skulls in addition to the one gold (plus a skill point if you haven't done it before). For that dungeon; all you need is one person who can take the aggro and one DPS; keep your own selves healed and it is a fun romp.

Not sure if there is a Pledge for it or not that night; but I've been going regardless just because it is the easiest one to do for only a couple characters. (Buffy can solo it; but Pia needs a second person with her, lol).

However; that said = we have two new members whose characters may not be up to a high enough level to do the Group Dungeons yet (I can't remember if they have a Level limit still or not; but they used to) = or especially Renee at this point (since she just started yesterday) might not be up for such intense combat dungeons.

This Guild Meet might have a large enough membership that a group dungeon would be off the list anyway; they only allow 4 at a time.

When are you usually online? Maybe we could get a few of us together to run Fungal Grotto on a different night?

I've avoided the group dungeons, just because of time. You have to get the skull from the final boss, which means working through all the rest first. The Public dungeons give you a skull from the first one you meet, and then you can just leave. If I run into the mini-dolmen/Dark Fissure thing, then that gives the same skull as the Public dungeons, and I skip them.

I'd probably do the Publics for the large number of bosses in one place if i was chasing a lot of the purples, but too much time is already used up with the crafting dailies.

The worst skull/time ratio is probably going to be arenas. I don't expect many of the Dremora page from those will be in the traders after the event. Trials at least have multiple participants, so more supply.

So I realized why I was able to kill one of the WBs on my own in Craglorn, and it's not because I'm a super l33t pro-G4mer (I don't really think that anyway). I noticed that the spellfiends that spawned, for whatever reason, didn't attack me. I thought maybe I just didn't trigger them properly. And lately, I've had enemies where, if I positioned myself in the right way, they wouldn't attack me.

Anyway, the reason why it clicked that the WB battle was bonked in my favor was because I just tried a little ago fighting a couple more WBs on my own there, and...well, didn't go so hot. Died on the one and had to run away on the other, because those enemies did trigger and attack me while I was trying to break these crystals that would release the WBs afterwards.

So my vote goes to Craglorn content for Friday.

Sounds like we should have a pretty good showing tomorrow and looking forward to some fun.

Renee has started ESO on PC NA! Her username is @Xenaclone and I have sent her an invitation in game to join the guild. Between some things she has going on tomorrow and her still trying to figure out so many of the game's basics, we're not expecting to see her at the guild meet but I certainly look forward to her joining us for meets in the future. Welcome, Renee! smile.gif

I have a night shift coming up today which lasts from 7 PM to 7 AM, so I'm not joining the meeting. But I'll definitely be there on one of the future meetings.

Have fun!

Back from a great guild meeting/fun run. We pretty quickly had Buffy, Blossom (ghastley), Cincy (Rader), Paedre (Rider) and Pia (mALX) together at the guild hall. Rider, either through graciousness or perhaps not feeling too well offered that she only really wanted to go if we needed a fourth for a group dungeon. With five of us, she bowed out. With that decided, we set our sights on Redbeard's pledge of Direfrost Keep (Normal) and the other four of us set off. Buffy was healer, Cincy the tank and Pia & Blossom provided the dps. The dungeon went very smoothly with everyone doing a great job in their roles. After turning in the pledge, we popped over to Stonefalls to get Cave of Memories WB for Cincy - which also went very smoothly. By then, Acadian needed a break and mALX needed dinner. . . so Buffy had to process her loot and log off.

Thanks to Rider for showing up at the start as a backup. Thanks also to the wonderful group of four we had. We missed those who could not be there and hope to see you at the next meeting! smile.gif

Guild meetings sound like fun! Do you always take on some group dungeon? Can players like us that haven't found this dungeon in-game yet, also take part in it?

When we do run a group dungeon it is on normal and one of the easier ones. But no, our adventuring is totally geared to how many and who we have at the meeting. If you and Renee had showed up, we would have put together a very different fun run - geared to making the least experienced players we have feel very comfortable. We have gone out and run delves, public dungeons, hunted dolmens and world bosses. Even done house tours to show off the decorating skills of some of our guildies. In today's case, we happened to have the right numbers (4) and experience levels to very comfortably support a straightforward normal group dungeon. The main thing is just getting to spend some time together. More than once, we've geared our agenda to supporting a desired goal of one member who, for example, needs help defeating one particular world boss or clearing a certain public dungeon. Or even skyshard hunting.

Most of us feel pretty much the same way but I think Buffy even more so. She comes in several variants but primarily enjoys playing as a healer. As such, she is all about supporting others so it comes very naturally to make her objective become that of those she is supporting. She is never happier than when following and supporting someone when her skills can help them accomplish their goals.

For example when supporting a group vs a world boss, her thinking is very different from a damage dealer. Though still a contest between her and the boss, Buffy's thinking toward the boss is 'I can heal and buff my allies more effectively than you can hurt them!' laugh.gif

The main reason to meet once a month this way is to just get together and have fun together at least once every month = so we always meet the first Friday of every month. We can do things together at other times too; but this one Meet every month is a set thing to make sure we don't go months without getting together.

We usually talk about it before the meet and take suggestions about what everyone wants to do; then decide what suits best (usually dependent on how many we will have for the Meet; on what level the Players coming are; and what everyone wants most to do).

When we have a few low level characters for a Meet; sometimes we bring out our own low level characters and all go for "Skyshard Runs" = Every 3 skyshards you find gives the Player 1 Skill Point to spend; so at an early level it really helps build up the newer Characters.

One time we went fishing for the Meet; Hazmick took us to several places to fish for trophy fishes.

We've had Meets where we just sat and talked; or our characters danced and swam together; etc. Another we went and visited each other's houses.

We've had Meets where we did World Bosses; dungeons; delves; etc - We even talked about going to Cyrodiil and doing some PvP stuff; though we never did get around to that one. It just all depends on what everyone wants to do; how many will be there; what level characters we have; etc.

Congrats to Renee! She has joined our guild and I just 'promoted' her so she now has full bank permissions.

For Renee, this means you should feel free to grab anything you see in the bank that will help your characters in their growth and travels. Certainly lockpicks, soul gems, a bit of gold if you need it, recipes, motifs etc. New characters are the primary reason that stuff is in there. The armor, jewelry and weapons in the bank will be of no use to you now however as almost all of it can only be equipped by top level characters. It honestly is not worth worrying too much about fancy gear while leveling up though since you will 'outgrow' it and need to replace so often. Using the stuff you find as you adventure works fine while leveling up, perhaps augmented by a few simple pieces that your fellow guildies can make for you as you go.
