Mr Fizz of LC reports from Glenden Wood: "Hi Maggie, On Saturday night (Oct 16) around 9:00pm on Leafcull there was a global: The Undead have been seen congregating at an Undead Shrine south-west of Crater..

About 15 minutes later another global message appeared: An Undead Army has attacked Glenden Wood

The Undead raid at Glenden Wood had Elite Revenants, Blood Fiends, Dark Magus, Phantasms, Risen Lords, and Lich Oppressors (probably even more undead types; there were numerous waves of attacks, spawning in different parts of the town). The Undead Armies spawned in military fashion. I've attached 3 pics I took of the events. Have a good day."

Another report and a pic of Dolls attacking: "Hiya Maggie, This is Bunny Killer of Leafcull. I took tons of screenshots of the raid on Glenden Wood and thought I'd send a few along. Sorry for the huge delay. =)"

A report from Shaolin of TD: "Me again, just a few screenies of the rather Large golem attack at Chalicemere Castle on TD! The respawn rate on the golems was rather fast and in large numbers, particularly the Sapphires and ancient Platinum variety.... We had to beat back hordes of assorted small golems, as well as diamond/plasma/pyreal/acidic/coral and a hard to kill Diamond lord Imperator. We all had a blast on this event, and there were many deaths."

October 17, 2004 - WE

Elrihm of WE reports: "Around 8:30 pm central there was a mass of golems from vapor, plasma, Sapphire, platinum, Ancient Coral and Diamond golems, and crystal golems, Soverien and Imperator.

Maximum Force of FF sends these great pics of the K'nath attack on Ayan. He reports: "The lag was terrible but I'd have to say there was a good hundred or more VOD jellos all over the Ayan area. Not to mention the Crystal Golems in the town. It was so intense, many people died to help the cause :) But in the end the Ispairans won to fight another day!"

When they were killed they advanced higher and higher in levels till they reached the Dark Zefirs and Reedshark Skinners. Fun, but it was over way too fast!"

October 18, 2004 - FF

lost raven of FF reports: "Golems gathering at Chalicemere Castle (C-note). Sapphire Golems, Crystal Lord Imperators. A good gathering for sure!"

Ophar Kabitaki of FF adds: "At around 9PM EST global about advancing forces of golems near Chalicmere. Arrived at the castle and nada. Ran 2 clicks north and hordes of golems. Majority were sapphires, but the force also consisted of golds, plasmas, vapors, and miniature golems.

Main antagonists were Diamond Golem Suzerain, Crystal Golem Sovereign, and a Crystal Golem Imperator. The sovereign was susceptible to all attack types, while the Imperator was highly resistant to melee, missile, and war damage. Lifebolts seemed to deal the most damage. Fight lasted approximately an hour."

--October 18, 2004 - MT

Kriket of MT reports: "An army of Knaths has been seen just North of the Accursed Hall."

• 

Aravel of MT was also there: "Last night at around midnight eastern (not sure of exact time) K'naths raided The Accursed Halls. I was in Baishi at the time the message went through, so I was one of the first on the scene. The K'naths spawned both inside and outside the small fort and they would spawn in lines of 5+. We destroyed the groups inside the fort and were working on the ones outside when they spawned again inside and with 5 Virindi Paradoxes. The Paras went down quick and so did the K'naths. We then eliminated all of them near the fort and pushed them back into a valley nearby where the final spawn seemed to be. Upon attacking the final spawn, multiple spawns occurred closer to the fort, in the main bulk of our forces, I'd have to say 30+ of them. A few more waves took place and we finished them off. I don't believe I ever saw a message saying it was over though.

note: hope you're never the main target when that many K'naths spawn. I took about 20 volley/arc spells within 20 seconds' time on multiple occasions."

October 19, 2004 - LC

Peerless of LC reports: "Another invasion is on the way, this time at the Singularity Caul. Dozens (if not 100+) caul monsters and black breaths are stationed a few feet beyond the drop. So far all efforts to neutralize them have been in vain."

• 

October 20, 2004 - SC

The appearance of Reeshan hasn't stopped the raids. Deven-Kenyon of SC sent word of an attack on Tou-Tou by Mosswarts that occurred at about 5:45 PM ET: "that lag was horrid, I couldn't move at all. only have brown radar dots to show the mess :/" (see pic above) A pack of rabid Mosswarts is attacking Tou Tou!

Epica of LC reports: "We had a Olthoi invasion outside of VoD tonight on Leafcull. Still going on, but I can't get back as my framerate drops to unplayable in that area."

A second report from Kristen: "Imagine my surprise to see the place I am lifestoned at surrounded by Olthoi forming ranks! I sent a shout on the server chanel, and soon we had a merry party going and roasted, bludgeoned and skewered many a bug in merry fellowship. I took some party photos too..."

•

The Mark sent these impressions: "The attack was all Olthoi Sentinels and Primordials. When I first got there, I saw about 4 people all up on a Lifestone completely surrounded by this huge swarm. There was many many bodies on the ground."

October 22, 2004 - WE

A report from Elrihm of WE: Despite his staggering strength, Ulgrim has succumbed to a bandit assault in an out of the way mountain retreat. "All hell broke loose around 9:30pm central as the Mountain retreat came under attack! Most of the bandits that spawned were the bandits from the Weeping Weapon quest. It was a close call, but we fought them off. Ulgrim has no recollection of the event. We all assumed he got drunk and passed out after it started."

• 

Jyng of WE sends some of the smack talk heard during the skirmish: Adroth spits on the ground as he sizes up Gocymer. "Dunno how yeh found us, mate. Seems like the longer we all stay in this world, the more we get a sixth sense for danger, eh? Anyway. Time to pay yer toll."

Adroth's boots clank loudly as he lunges at Jyng!

Torgrym glares over his orb at Casey Ray the hero. "Come on, foight like a man. Been whackin' on these dumb local critters too long, eh? No challenge in em, I say."

"Itala falls before Jyng's assault as she fought, silently."

Torgrym glares over his orb at Casey Ray the hero. "Come on, foight like a man. Been whackin' on these dumb local critters too long, eh? No challenge in em, I say."

"C'mon ya dumb bastards, fight like a team," Adroth bellows over the clash of battle.

October 22, 2004 - HG

Arch Magi reports from HG: "Maggie, Tonight, there was a Dev Event at the portal drop for Sing Caul. When it first happened, people were just dropping in to do their typical hunting, but there were 100 or so monsters of all types right on the portal drop. After dozens of corpses (and playing "Kiss the Lifestone") enough people showed up and we started to hold our own against the spawns. The radar was orange with monsters, and littered with the dead." As the Pardox ceases a tendril of wispy darkness streaks outward toward you. It dissipates in the air before it grab [sic] hold.

October 22, 2004 - TD

Crookshank TD reports: At 8pm EST, or thereabouts, the drop at the Caul recall was swarmed by baddies. Tons of Grievvers, Marguls, Wretched Shadows, and the like. Nasty stuff. I unfortunately did not get pics. I just thought I’d report it for posterity."

Dear Maggie, At 7:20 pm central time Alphus Lassel came under siege by Tuskers, Virindi and Sycophants. We fought bravely and the outcome is still uncertain. Signed, swordsman the player"

Mather of HG also reports: "Hey Maggie! Love the site! At around 8:45 on Oct. 24 (Harvestgain), a guildmate of mine reported that Alphus Lassel was under attack! When I arrived, there was a ring of Sycophants and Assailers wailing away at unsuspecting visitors. After the first wave was cleared, Virindi Adjudicators (sic?) and Annhilators started attacking! Sure enough, they just kept coming, and eventually they were replaced with the big guns: Virindi Quidoxes, Paradoxes, and Obliterators!! Carnage ensued, and countless people died, but it was a blast! Here are some screens I took."

Huge amount of high level Lich(demilich and other undead around that lvl) swarming the ayan LS. While running for my life, I realize it's more than the LS that the whole town is swarmed with likely a hundred or more skellies and undead. They even started a formation it would seem.
