Cool Invasion Finale ... Draconi post 12/3/07

As posted on UO U.Hall

Invasion Finale

The invasion has reached it's final stage. An octet of Rift Guardians have appeared in front of the much smaller, energetic moongate. They defend themselves with barrages of magic and can summon Daemon Berserkers when threatened.

They are surrounded in part by barrier flames that can only be removed by creative use of spellwords.

Meanwhile, my humblest apologies for the delay. This should have occurred automatically already, and I'm now enabling them manually, shard by shard. This should take approximately another 15 minutes. Do not worry, I have not been hit by a truck (that happened last year), and the show will go on!

Due to the delay, the event finale will be extended until Friday. If the Rift Guardians are not defeated by then, that shard/facet's Magincia is lost.

Oh, and hey! It turns out I'm staying with UO after all

In response to poster on UO U.Hall Draconi has inputed the following information ....

--------------------------------------------------------
Good to see you staying, though by this point, what is there left of Magincia to save? The players have done more to destroy the city than the daemons could imagine
--------------------------------------------------------------


Thanks! I'm glad too!
As for what's left to save?

Hmm... I think, from now on, a Britannian city will be seen as more than its walls, roofs and thoroughfares. True, Magincia's people may be gone - some slaughtered, even more scattered, but your actions now will determine this island's fate for generations.

The Fall of Magincia. Magincia no Metsubou.

Will Magincia rise again, an exemplar of Virtue? Or will it lie in the dust, haunted by its past?

Oh. Defeated rift guardians scatter functioning blackrock around the immediate area.

They can not be gotten close to, and when attacked spawn
a Demon Berserker, I believe these be can be killed best with those weapons you found when fighting the first part. IE the mystic, Power & Vanquishing Weapons.
Seems Elemental Slayers Are Damaging Rift Guardians, hard to say though...
_________________________________________________
as it turns out when a Guardian Is killed he spits out a Powerful Blast
Surfer Dudes & Wolfie and To x ic and a few others worked hard to kill it.
Heh we died endlessly too btw...
Bravo to the team out at the sakra gate too! Good job indeed!
Anyone recall that spell to drop the fire in T Keep. "An Sanct Flam" does not seem to work although I thought that was it but I can't be sure what that spelling was...
Maybe it did work because later I saw some one use it and now the flames are gone
but they returned soon after. Maybe you need many mages chanting that?
Some crazy flames here at this gate that need to be put out hehehe.
Also as I watch a group fight some used the words to drop the flames and then EV's where able to hit the guardians.
As it turns out there are items to be had. See UO hall and the main thread for more information
----------------------------------------------------------
Beware when entering The Maginca area Via the Sakra Gate!
A lot of Bzerkers are getting drug to the bank area because we have blow up our own defenses for Cannon rubble.
You Defenders of Maginca were right!!!
Sorry about that because I helped destroy it but I did not think of the ramifications...
Small groups are starting to form to take out these wild bzerkers now...
Thank you lady Pandora Spocks for the Black rock test. Watched her blow up next to me doing a little research.

Sorry no Pictures as I have no place to store them.
Post your awesome battle pictures and stories here.
And that’s the latest news; I am tired now so good luck Sonoma and good night.

In order to kill the guardians at the gate they must first say An Sanct Flam in front of the guardian to want to attack to get rid of the grey flames first. If you attack the guardians at the gate without dispelling the flames in front of that paticular guardian then it will summon Demon Berserker. If you extinguish the flames first then no berserker gets summoned. The grey flames do come back so you have to say An Sanct Flam each time you see the grey flames at the guardian you want to attack. Sorry forgot to mention... in order for the word to work I believe you must be GM Magery or higher.
