I do not think there are enough people around Bai Jou to have as much lag as I have gotten there recently. I have even lagged out and been disconected 3-4 times in the past 2 days, and that rarely happens to me. Since the unplanned maintenance, the spawns have changed around bai jou too. The two lich lords right by the door to the armory have changed to mosswart shamans. Also, I did not have lag problems before the servers went down. In Bai Jou, I have never seen so much money. I have the most money on me I have ever had. This morning I filled every magic item I had up to full, and I still havd 4 250 mana charges on me, and 4 100 mana charges. I have a pack with 50k full of trade notes. I gave Mare 30k yesterday, and still have 50k AND a full bag of mana stones
Damn that feels good.

I do not have any problems with killing the things that fall off the huge cliff by baijou and then try to get back home. By this sheer cliff are obsidian golems, gold wasps, penumbris shadows, and drudges. They all almost ignore you as they try to climb the cliff to get back home. I have no problem with killing these things for free.

1) I am not luring them here

2) It happens randomly, and everyone runs over to kill them about once every 4 hours when a huge group falls down.

3) You can't just leave 10 monsters in a heavily populated area without killing them. Despite the fact that they rarely fight back, I'm don't feel bad at all about killing them.

Last night with Mizu's Dagger Guy "Zane" was so bad.
Druss got blasted for 59 and 58 points from two liches, and then some damn undead thing hit him with an arrow or something to kill me.
TO KILL LEVEL 35 DRUSS IN THE WEAK ASS FOLTHID CELLAR
OH GOD THE HUMILATION!!!
Of course, I lost all my clothes, so Druss had to run back in naked to add to the humiliation.
"Oh look, its a naked level 35 alliance monarch. Hi Druss."
"Sigh"

Level 35.

125 Magic resistance unbuffed.
Magic Resistance 3 shield was ON at the time. Hell, I felt stupid equiping it. I mean, Druss can handle 5 liches at once usually.
I contiue to almost die through the entire cellar. We have to take on two liches again, and they don't hit me for 15 or drain my mana.
No.
Acid blast 4 for 60 and Lightning blast 4 for 58, and once again I am dangerously low before I kill them. (Druss has 150 hit points if I remember correctly, but I think its more like 165 possibly.)
I'm telling you - Liches can smell fear, and I need to finish that article, because its so true.
We do end up getting the dagger, but man, that was some unreal the way magic can just kill you sometimes.
The thing I like best is having He-who-must-not-be-named take on a Lich Lord and not get get below half. And then I take on two mosswart Shamans and they Blast the crap out of me, send me back to the lifestone and I am dazed and bewildered going "How the hell did THAT happen? I just beat a LICH LORD!!!"
Magic is odd.

Found an OLTHOI HUNTERS TOWER SHEILD in the Folthid Cellar.

AL 99
Imp III
Piercing Bane III

Must be SHO

Crap! I'm Aluvian
Who wants it?
I am assuming that most of the Olthoi Hunters I know already have better. But if not, speak now.
Anyone? Anyone?
I see a bunch of guys farting around with Tuskers by the lifestone. I work my way over, and I think I see a bunch of loot on the ground, that, if I am brave, I can run over and snag.

We now switch your veiw to the perspective of a Tusker Guard.

What the hell? I wish those friggin archers would just go away and leave me alone. Next one of them that pokes me is getting chased back to the armory.

What the?

What the?

Tusker Guard clicks on the little orange dot coming towards him. Presses E.

He-who-must-not-be-named huh? Level 26? Coming over here? What a punk! I bet he thinks he's gonna score some of my Phat L@@T without having to fight me for it. What a scrounge!

/tell mosswart Shaman, Wanna have some fun? I'm gonna smash the crap out of "He-who-must-not-be-named" . You blast him when he takes off with a load in his pants.

Mosswart Shaman tells you "Sure, gimme ten seconds to power up my focus three and war magic mastery 3 swamp stick."

Mosswart Shaman says "Puish Zharil!
Mosswart Shaman says "Puish Zharil!

You tell Mosswart Shaman "OK, ten seconds, he's coming your way. Be ready."

Ivory Necklace cast Strength Self V on you! Bronze Hooves of Bashing cast Rage Self VI on you! Ivory Ring casts Charging Self IV on you!

"Mosswart Shaman's lightning curroscates over He-who-must-not-be-named's remains!"

/tell Mosswart Shaman "Oh my god was that funny! did you see the look on his face when I kicked him in the spine?"

Mosswart Shaman tells you 'ROFL! That was GREAT!!! Stay Powered up, he'll be coming back for that body!"

"Ok, be ready!"

later
