And hit Karl Franz over the head with my choppa...
Our alliance on Karak Norn has been killing the King now for a few weeks but due to not being picked as a tank I've been sitting out (no harm done, my time will come) but I've also been helping out the lesser warded folks and going through the Warlord instances with the non King pushing war band. Yesterday we had a fair amount of folks on and took out both Warlord instances (one blue bag for me but everyone needed the golds that got it so no master loot down :( ) and then we went onto the Shadow Warrior, Engineer and Reiksguard. They all fell to our might and we visited the king, now we were low on DPS and wards so we had no real chance of taking him down, however we still went and had a quick shot at him to see what he's like (folks had to go) and I have to admit, he seems straight forward enough.
But... By Gork, the stage 2 city instances are buggy as heck. The amount of times things just randomly reset or mobs bugged out and did weird things is silly. Stage 2 is a complete mess, it's fun right now because it still feels 'new' to me since I don't see it too often but otherwise it feels very ... betaish still. I don't see them fixing this due to the changes coming in for the instances to be more RvR orientated, but for them to do this they need to completely remove the current instances and rebuild them from scratch, far too much is already buggy with them and to simply modify the existing instances would just make them worse.
Oh and just to annoy me more, I've discovered that weapons above warlord level ones drop from the three palace bosses. Touch annoying as that now makes the top three weapons all PvE drops :(

SIX Server crashes in one night... (at least)
So destruction made a push today, we hit all the zones and managed to get to Shining Way, half the warbands went and battered down the doors while the rest of us hopped between Reikland and Kadrin Valley to secure for a second fort assault.
As we waited in KV, the elven tier 4 pairing crashed THREE times causing it to reset and the destruction warbands having to start knocking down the gates from scratch again. Eventually we took Kadrin as well and almost simultaneously we took down both forts leading to Altdorf... No thanks to Mythics lousing net code and GOAs dreadful servers...
So we get to Altdorf and immediately our instance is full, lots of us wait and I'm the first one ine. Then 2 minutes later, the Altdorf server crashes kicking me out the game (and crashing me as soon as I log back in for 10 minutes). Finally, Lokax gets logged back in, after waiting forty five minutes to get in the server crashes again as I watch the rest of the guild get booted. After waiting some more time I get another spot in basically a puggy instance and with 10 minutes left to go in Altdorf... It crashes again.
At this point, by the time I log back in there's 3 minutes and I'm back in the queue for Altdorf, staring at the portal and thinking I just wasted two hours of my life, and we won't even get an apology, nor any sort of admission of fault by either Mythic or GOA.
It must actually be quite embarrassing being Mythic right now, or are they living in perpetual ignorance where everyone is happy and the servers are running beautifully?
Well the guild has basically agreed on this... The games pride, the end game.. The major selling point...
