I’d been in there once before but died quite quickly at the first boss. So this time when a zone shout came up, I made sure to tell them that I was a Kalin’s “virgin” and that I had only 7700 HP. They said it was okay so I said, “I’m in.”
I briefly debated taking either a Phoenix’s Redemption or Big Angel’s Sigh but then decided against it. As a level 55, I can’t accrue XP debt, only TP, so I thought it might be better to save those for when the level cap comes off.
Anyway, my group of six were all level 55. The tank had I think 13,000 HP or more. There were 4 mages and 1 priest. The tank just blazed on through the place, running full tilt! I was racing to keep up and loot and keep an eye out for quests. I had zero time to look around. I actually thought to myself, “I guess I’ll have to come back for a sightseeing visit.”
The first boss killed me, as expected. They told me to stand under his butt but I guess I wasn’t close enough. I’m not sure if I should be proud of that or not? :)There were actually a few more bosses after him and then a BIG boss at the end. They gave me some hints to survive, but nope, I still died.
But it was cool cuz as I was lying there on the floor, I got to see all the action without worrying. It was chaotic. Madness. This guy, Regin, split into like 20 of himself and set the whole damn place on fire. I was glad I was already dead.
At the end of the run, I stopped and said, “I have to take a picture for my scrapbook.” They thought I was silly but I wanted to have proof I made it through. Plus the end guy was pretty cool looking.
One more note: the guy who invited me, Frostbite, was super nice and helpful and understanding. I want to give big props to him for being such a great player.
