For a while we have considered elite areas HM.... last week after Killer Ranks request we decided to attempt Urgoz HM.
Unfortunately last week, Killer had connection probs
so we settled for a pickup group and had to go nm
cos the PUG guys hadnt finished factions.... nuff said game went fine end chest etc..
.
So tonight we decided to give Killer another go and this time HM
.
We only had 2 sets of cons, not the ideal for a first time roll of Urgoz HM but well....
.
First onslaught (under conset) was mostly a party wipe.
but 2 survived to res the rest and more carefully pull the dredge. From then it was pretty easy up to the point the cons ran out, which was somewhere around the bridge wait guy zone. no real probs, a few deaths mostly heroes but we overcame. The 2 areas with the multi mobs were tricky though. On more than one occasion we were down to a couple of survivors with res scrolls or rebirth.
. And unfortunately after several DC's we lost Killer again
. Poor guy we wuz gutted
Through those we decided the hard part would start with the blood drinker pop ups and thorn wolves. Fortunately we had Crush with us whose experience was invaluable and we pulled in to the previous room. NP was a nice easy area and we used our last conset...
Urgoz in HM, (finale) was a pushover. Far easier than the previous week in nm, (although this time we had Crush the right side of the area door before it closed)
.
Big Gz to all those that came along and got the drops etc...
