bwahahaha.... oh yes... it is sweet :D

man i was at crunchy with mo trying to get in an hour of rvr before bed... i had no idea we were part of distracting for the relic keep 'raid'... nice to know i contributed something even though i got owned...

12:35 am, we still have it =) though I'm not seeing any bonuses (relic of power?)

Reading some of the postson that board... talk about maturity =P

I couldn't believe it at first, i did a /re and saw we had taken back crunchy but then i looked at relics and was stunned, cant wait to be a part of other ownage such as this.

It was cool. Murph did a good job of keeping the Crunchy forces together and moving back and forth.

When I saw we were going for a relic, I made 3 failed runs to make it to Crunchy to be a part of it...ineffective as I was with my 5 rp's earned on the night :D

The second run Varnath escorted me and we both died.

On the fourth run, Arboc and I actually got kinda close before we got creamed, we hung in and got rez'ed and w00t!

It was really exciting rallying around the cauldron keep watching for the relic runner. Fun stuff.

[Boom]

Hahahhahaha! I leave for one day and come back to do /re and see that we have a relic!!!

Those trolls are soooooo dumb! Ever since we heard about this stealther trick we have been checking our relic keeps frequently. If a piece of siege equipment showed up or the doors were mysteriously damaged, someone would have set off the alarms. Obviously the Tards were too dumb to find their own relic keeps. I heard that trolls were as dumb as they looked, but I didn't think it was possible till now. :D

/me sings "Nooo relic for miiiidtards cuz weeeee are the champions....."

My understanding is.... after today's patch, stealthers must now unstealth to use siege equipment, and guards will automatically destroy seige equipment on sight. So stealthers will still be able to sneak into relic keep, bap on the tower door, and get killed by a guard, but it would take like 12 hours to destroy a keep door that way. I also think that stealthers can no longer remain stealthed while carrying a relic. I'm not 100% sure of any of these details. I just know that the stealthy method of relic taking is being made either 1000 times harder, or simply impossible.

When the dude is carrying the relic, is it just in his inventory or can you see him holding it? I would love a screeny of some dude running with the Mid relic in his arms. Lets make a trip out to our keep tonight to take screenies of us flexing around the mid relic.

I have a picture of the relic carrier's arrival at our keep. :) You don't see the relic, it's an inventory item.
