Join up for RP, dungeon-runs without being lonely, and semi-guided tours to the neat places of the server!
I've been attempting for months, on-and-off, to get a regular dungeon run each week to exciting places. I've started this thread to make my attempts a bit more visible, since it should help with scheduling and participation. Anyone is welcome if they think they are in range for the area, but I am aiming for a group of 4-5 for sanity reasons. Excess of 6 will be handled as necessary, such as splitting off a second fieldwork team to somewhere else.
Tomorrow (Friday Dec. 15), James is going to be organizing a Fieldwork expedition to the Calidor Caverns [Difficulty range 45+]. I would prefer to kick off at [1800PST;2100EST;0200GMT] from the Waterfall Campsite, and run as far as we can in 3 hours.
The Emporium will be open before and after the run, if anyone is looking for in-game gifts or gear.
Interested parties are invited to sign up here or PM me via Forum or Discord so I can plan accordingly. I will only be taking Emporium and Bulk Purchase requests before the run; please hold commissions until afterwards. Please have all your gear ready to go before the scheduled time.

This went reasonably well.
Participation was Me (duh), Allie Collingswood, Carter Crenshaw, and Aurelie Latulipe. We started half an hour late, but also ended about the same amount late, so overall definitely doable in the time limit with a bit better preparation.
No Fieldwork next Friday (December 22nd), but I'll be posting and hosting another on the 29th. I'm thinking Desert perhaps, or another Caverns run, for anyone interested in the quest.

Join us on Friday (Dec. 29) when we will go Hieroglyph Hunting in the northern Nefarian Desert [Difficulty range 55+]. Please be prepared to depart at [1700PST;2000EST;0100GMT] from Watering Hole in Newport, and run as far as we can in 3 hours. This is an excellent opportunity for anyone studying the beasts and fauna of Eremus, and we will be visiting intact ancient elven sites of archaeological value.
The Emporium will be open before and after the run, if anyone is looking for in-game gifts or gear.
Interested parties are invited to sign up here or PM me via Forum or Discord so I can plan accordingly. I will only be taking Emporium and Bulk Purchase requests before the run; please hold commissions until afterwards. Please have all your gear ready to go before the scheduled time.
Starting an hour earlier, since I have the day off work. As a result, we might be able to push to 4 hours if the group agrees, and only after a break. Alternatively, if I get enough feedback for it, I can start off the main event at the normal time, and use the first hour for helping completion of the Wateringhole quest.
[Results: No-one showed up.]

Please be prepared to depart at [1800PST;2100EST;0200GMT] from Waterfall Campsite, and run as far as we can in 3 hours.

The Emporium will be open before and after the run, if anyone is looking for in-game gifts or gear.

Given that last week was a nogo due to server connection problems, I will be leading the dungeon run posted for last week on Friday, Jan. 19th. Everything else is as listed, with one timing caveat: Because it's a weird-working-weekend for me, I might be delayed and need to get up early the following morning. If the delay runs longer than an hour for whatever reason, I will trip down the completion objective to half the dungeon (miniboss area), which will mean no boss or quest completion objective.
[Results: Started an hour late because no-one showed up for a while. Wiped after an hour due to poor tactical decisions and insufficient damage.] [Attendance: James, Allison Collingswood, Aurelie Latulipe] [Observations: Probably need 4 persons in or above dungeon bracket before repeating.]

Join us on Friday (Feb. 2nd) when we will go Tissue Sampling in the Calidor Caverns [Difficulty range 45+]. Please be prepared to depart at [1800PST;2100EST;0200GMT] from Waterfall Campsite, and run as far as we can in 3 hours. Previous expeditions have been most informative and profitable off the plentiful specimens recovered, and we expect no different this time.
Interested parties are invited to sign up here or PM me via Forum or Discord so I can plan accordingly. I will only be taking Emporium and Bulk Purchase requests before the run; please hold commissions until afterwards. Please have all your gear ready to go before the scheduled time. Most relevant bestiaries are available on request.
We are also looking for a Secondary Team Lead, willing to aid with planning and operating expeditions. Applicants should be well versed in expeditionary tactics and logistics, and possess a keen desire to explore. Familiarity with Trivium's forgotten corners is preferred not required, though leadership skills are mandatory. Compensation for duties may be subject to discussion.
[[Dungeon Contains: Quest]]
[Results: Started late and undermanned, switched to minor efforts in Desert; first attempt botched due to 3 rear-line roles, second botched due to distracted players] [Attendance: James, Carter Crenshaw, Allison Collingswood] [Observations: would have benefited from a primary melee type or a fourth in general, and better player attention.]

Join us on Friday (Feb. 16nd) when we will perform a Mineral Survey in the Wards Mines [Difficulty range 30+]. Please be prepared to depart at [1800PST;2100EST;0200GMT] from the Carnival, and run as far as we can in 3 hours. In a commitment to aid local businesses, we expect to see plenty of opportunity for practical advancements and biological examinations.

We are still looking for a Secondary Team Lead, willing to aid with planning and operating expeditions.

I didn't quite get last week's up and noted, but this week we are again trying for the Wards Mines, unless I receive compelling requests otherwise.
Locations: Wards Mines, Flooded Sewers Result: Went pretty quick through wards, ran Flooded sewers as well, located boss problems in the latter. Otherwise it went 'swimmingly'. In attendance: James Frazer, Aurelie Latulipe, Jeptha Flanegan Observations: Went fast and well, no issues, but a lot of pre-placement. Presumably other dungeons could be proceduralized as well in the interests of speed-runs if desired.

I'll post them in advance again at some point!
Today's Fieldwork was a trip to the Sewer Shrine, knocked out with only a couple hairy fights, done in about two hours (which includes RP) Results: Went well, got to discuss the architecture, no lasting injuries. In attendance: James Frazer, Aurelie Latulipe, Dorian Davis, Cyris Kirmani. Observations: We had two well over-skilled fighters, which more than compensated for the newest participant.

James Frazer will not be leading a Fieldwork this week. If anyone else wishes to step up to the plate, I am still looking for a Secondary Team Lead to conduct and oversee Fieldwork in my absence.
I will be leading the next Fieldwork on Friday, March 24th and 31th, but will likely be unavailable to conduct the next three (Apr. 6th, 13th, and 20th), so the role won't go wasted if anyone wants to pursue it.

Notice: There will be NO Fieldwork this week, due to a planned server plot-event. Player attendance is still appreciated, but will not be dungeon-related.
Additionally, I will not be around to lead the next three weeks worth of Fieldwork, if anyone is interested in stepping up. Compensations might be available for Fieldwork Team Leaders with positive feedback.
