The Daughters of Thule  

we've just recieved this quest and checked the quest name as "Daughters of Lucan" ~

don't know are there any differences between FP side's guild and the Q Side's guild for the quest name, but we can sure that Q side's quest name is "Daughters of Lucan" :P

Here is a great description from the Last word guild:

Zone Name: Eternal Gorge: Tears of the Daughters
Suggested Level: 20-26
Players Needed: 6-12
Zone Entry: The Commonlands, portal at the top of Zarvonn's Tower (see map)
Entry Requirements: Member of a level 10+ guild; quest "Daughters of Thule" from City Registrar (Valley of Zarvonn access quest not needed)

The Eternal Gorge is another name for the Valley of Zarvonn. The "Tears" instance of EG is the level 10 guild raid.

Entrance is at the top of Zarvonn's Tower in CL. http://www.tlwguild.org/images/raid5-zonein.jpg

You zone into a tower identical to Zarvonn's, pictured here: http://www.tlwguild.org/images/raid5-battle1.jpg

The zone layout is similar to the level 5 raid, somewhat circular, with a valley that goes nowhere but can be used to lose agro if you need to (though you shouldn't ). http://www.tlwguild.org/images/raid5-valley.jpg

There are about 5 houses, each with a named mob and her guards. Level 23 ++ mobs if I remember correctly. The mother is level 24 +++, in a bigger house to the southeast. http://www.tlwguild.org/images/raid5-mother.jpg http://www.tlwguild.org/images/raid5-battlemother.jpg

The Mother and Sisters all drop chests. We got some decent loot:

Ruckus Blouse http://www.tlwguild.org/images/item-raid5-ruckasblouse.jpg
Ruckus Sash (burn that Orghran's!) http://www.tlwguild.org/images/item-raid5-ruckassash.jpg

Here is yours truly modeling the Ruckus Blouse. http://www.tlwguild.org/images/raid5-eetumrobe.jpg

While we're at it, here's the level 10 guild robe. Crappy stats but it looks cool! http://www.tlwguild.org/images/level10robe.jpg

I read that the normal instance for Valley of Zarvonn has increasingly hard spawns of creatures, culminating in a boss mob. No such luck in the "Tears" instance, but perhaps we had too many high level characters in the zone. Who knows.

Well we cleared the zone easily (our only death was when someone came back from LD and got jumped), so upon the remains of our defeated foes we played a rousing game of Red Light Green Light! http://www.tlwguild.org/images/raid5-rlgl2and3.jpg

There were complaints that the level 5 raid was too easy for the average adventure level range of a level 5 guild; unfortunately, it's the same with the level 10 raid. Guild raids should be a challenge, not something we have to disband our highest-level characters from so the mobs can be green rather than grey. Ah well.

Expect a level 15 raid write-up sometime in February.
