As we keep up the Tower farming, and the reality of consistently raiding in UF nears, many Team Dragon members have asked about doubling back and dropping some of the SoD raids between Queen and Kora.

So for those looking to best some parallel content ... and those who wanted to get the rk3 from mission completion... Gratz.

Update -- a couple of players have asked me to update with a more recent "farming madness" lockout window of TD:

.....

Just a quick screenshot to kick off the weekend. Team Dragon's second clear of the Tower of Discord (ok NOW its on farm status) and our first try (and win) on a "hard" version of a Tower event. A nice week's worth of work (and loot).

Korafax

At first, Korafax was just a farm zone that we could drop Pallorax. So on 10/8/2009 Team Dragon started on him. Then he died the first of many times a day later. So about a month later, we decided to see if we could swing Venom Lord? And after 5 nights of attempts, he dropped.

So the TD members and brain trust put their heads together and asked,"You know, maybe we are ready to move into the Tower of Discord?" So after the holiday break, on Jan 4, TD started working on the final flagging mob for the tower -- Mindshear. After a grinding 10 nights of attempts and figuring it out, he dropped -- and we were able to flag members for the Tower.

Tower of Discord

So on Feb. 22, TD starts in on the Tower. And the first event, Mindblight, was no picnic. But on March 15, Blight drops. Then on March 22, we beat the Trophy room. Followed by a long stretch of frustration and some backtracking, as we struggle to re-beat Trophy and defat Statis. Then... on May 5.. we get out first Statis win -- and then Team Dragon is a runaway train that cannot be stopped!

Tower4 -- May 6... Tower 5 -- May 13... 5.5 Auger -- May 13.. and then... the big, bad Tower 6 and OMM... which we thought would plague us. We give it a first look this Wednesday... then go back on Thursday and....

So on Thursday, Tower6 drops... and of course we're going to pay a visit to the boss of the Tower -- Lord Brekt....

So we come, we tussle... he wipes us. We regroup, and going through an ENTIRE tank lineup of 9 different tanks... with dps throwing the kitchen sing at him...

Tower of Discord, RIP -- May 20, 2010

Congrats Team Dragon on a major achievement.

Many of us can remember the times we've been working on zones three expansions behind the times. Now, with an eye of course on gearing up the team and farming the Tower, we are looking at working on Underfoot while it is actually an active expansion :>

And Team Dragon continues its push through the Tower of Discord... and found the next event to be no sacrifice.

Then to cap the evening, TD went and dropped its first Tower auger.

Team Dragon came... it scryed... it conquered...

After powering through lots of trash TD visited the fourth tower event Scrying. Torches were lit. Mobs were killed. Born showed us the AE aggro bug is alive and well in Tower. And eventually Team Dragon got its first Tower4 kill (on its first time there).
