Ok, I enjoy sharing my rediculous tale/tells with you guys and will do so for now on in this thread, if you have some fun tale/tells (clever eh?) feel free to post them !

First Tale/Tell

Ok so I'm delivering some meat at cnet when a random guy invites me to a group. I'm not doing anything so I think "what the hell" and join to see what he wants. He then sends me a tell asking me if he could teach me exploration and hunting in order for him to gain AP. Normally this wouldn't be such an odd question, however, I did have my good ol' Master Ranger tag out So I kindly replied "sorry pal, Master Ranger already requires me to have those skills "

ah, good ol' cnet

Back in the day when groups were fun, i can remember leading a team on our first encounter on dathomir.

We were all fresh out of noob camp but ready for a fight. As we left the outpost and headed for rancor mountain all i can remember is 15 of us swimming accross the dark and mysty moat surrounding the mountain. As we swam closer we started to see a wall, a wall or rock piercing out of the water like a fortress wall. This made our hearts pound for sure because you KNEW you wernt suposed to be here

We went over the 'wall' and entered the foothills of mount rancor. Slowly working our way forward,footstep by footstep, we encountered our first targets. A vicious pack of creatures called baz niches. Back then these guys were fun to hunt. They were non agressive and non social so a groups could easily take one and conentrate efforts on them. I split the group into 3 with a respective leader of each sub group. There was the Tank Team (melee, ch), Heal Team (docs meds) and Fire Team (ranged). I told the leaders to set their teams up and so they did. i set up myfire team on a small mound and we sent the tanks in. Non of us were very good so a baz was prety hard to take down. Our tanks held agro and beat the things into pulp, our healers kept them alive, our ranged guys picked each beast off one by one.

We were a fine and well oiled group, we had fun shouting various taunts to the animals as we fought. After each fight we rested in one of may high tech field bases. There were tanks sitting in the medical bay waiting to be treated by the docs, the medics were healing the pets and sat around the crafting stations making more meds, there were people gathering around the holo chess table trying to get the damn thing to work, there were people stood around chatting about what just happened, how weird this place is and god damn what a nice camp.

Once we all healed up and stopped planning our next assault we headed out to find RANCOR!!! The fabled beast of Dathomir. We all wanted to kill one, its why we signed up and it wasnt long before we found 3 of them stood around growling. After pointing out out ambush pointthe group leaders went to work prepping their guys, fire team set up on the edge of a cliff overlooking the ambush point and gave the all clear.

The fight was on! The tank team had successfully drawn in 2 of the beasts and all hell broke loose. Axes and fist flying, heals raining down from everywhere, bolts of red hot plasma ripping through the air, traps landing left right and center and greatwaves of flame torching the ambush point. It wasnt long before the great beasts fell and well all rejoced, we had conquored the mighty rancor of dathomir.

Sitting in a HTFB we all were chattingabout howdamn cool this game is, what our next target was, how fun that last encounter went. Healed up, hyped up andready togo, we set out on another wilrwindadventure.

Now those were good times. Very good times.

Man, I've had some doozies.

I had one guy ask me how to use a trap and why his bone spur was not working on rancors. He had trapping2 only.
