Title: Old video of my guild
Post by: Kaloha on April 29, 2014, 04:09:39 PM
Just thought I'd share this while the servers are down. Sojourners is a very old guild filled with wonderfully talented veteran players. Many of us came from Brell during the merge into Cazic Thule myself included. I started playing EQ in the year 2000 shortly after release. This video is quite a find for me as I'm reminded of when we were a raiding guild. Sojourners hasn't raided anything in quite a few years, and may never again. Which leads me to thank the FL team and Furro, Dimbly & Minisca for providing an outlet to be with brothers and make new ones in the process. This video is a classic of Vishimtar back when it was an actual raid mob and not a boxed one like it is now :P I see some of us in this clip: Rulolin, Landaru, Qmon aka Tmon and myself (dark green armor, Vish whip (loved that HoT proc) and epic). This used to be a fun raid  :) "shoulder my burden!"

Nice video. Is that... Korn?

Now that I think of it, Vishimtar was probably the first raid to need audio triggers (I don't really remember when that function came out). And look what kind of mess we're in now. Thanks Vish!

Depends what guild you were in really and what kind of tech savy members there were in it. We had a member create a program for us just for the OMM emote that would play a .wav file for that one trigger and nothing else. OMM was the first raid that if you missed your emote there was a pretty good chance you would wipe the raid. I don't remember when GTT came out, there was yalp before gampars and maybe other programs but I don't remember off the top of my head. I didn't start using gtt until I think around TSS or SoF as I was cocky enough to think I didn't need some program to watch the emotes for me because I was attentive enough and could react fast enough. When I finally did download and start to use gtt, I berated myself for waiting as long as I had as this was a glorious and fantastical program.

Very nice Kaloha, yep we used to tear it up back in the day as a hard core raid guild ... I love the FL approach now :) and am grateful to Furro and the other loyal FL raiders for providing a great raid outlet.

I deleted that old 'shoulder my burden' hotkey today :0

If anyone's interested, here's one that a guild-mate recorded of Prophets of the Myst back when we were raiding SoF.
