4x5x34 LBD
Tonight, for the very first time, the Laid Back Dungeons pulled in a complete group. There was JD Kenada and his lovely wife (on Tumunzahar and Taelainne respectively); my dearest on Morai, an old friend from a previous guild on his lovely rogue Kyuusoku; and I rounded out the fifth spot on Gurdrid. I joked that Kyuusoku would actually be tanking with his Fangs of the Father, but he behaved quite well. Must be all those years of being the tank.
We set to work on Glory of the Hero in Drak’Tharon, figuring with a group of five the hard part would be waiting for the gores for Share the Love; and we were right. Gurdrid got impaled twice, while Tumunzahar got impaled three times. We completed all of the Drak’Tharon achievements, with varying numbers up to four of us needing at least one of them.
Then we moved on to Gundrak, since it’s right there. We presumed these would all be quick, and were not disappointed. The only difficulty was Tael seemed to always be on the wrong side of Eck to get spat on. Not that I blame her one bit. We all needed something here, and were not disappointed with our clear.
Gundrak down, we moved on to Halls of Stone. Last time we attempted this, we killed the wrong kind of oozes, and therefore didn’t get Abuse the Ooze, so this time we wanted to be certain. We did do a complete clear, since some of us needed to actually kill the Maiden of Grief (who did, in fact, die in less than a minute) to get the dungeon completion achievement. We managed another clean sweep here.
At this point, Morai and Kyuusoku needed to head off, so Tum, Tael and I went and did a quick Violet Hold. We were hoping to get Ichorus for Dehydration and were rewarded on the second boss. Sadly, we didn’t quite get it pulled off due to timing; but Tael did pick up the Water-Drenched Robes, and Gurdrid added a tick mark to Lockdown!
Quite a nice run, indeed, with a total of 34 achievements completed across all 5 toons.

Wow, nice job on all those achievements
That’s fantastic getting all those achievements! Great work
Thank you both! While Gurdrid got many herself, it was a lot of fun to watch the stream of achievements each time we killed a boss. There’s a certain amount of satisfaction in knowing we got lots done for people.
And reuniting with an old friend, as well as introducing him to new friends was probably even cooler. The boys rather seemed to enjoy themselves.
