FoW has been cleared!

Although it didn't feel like it, it certainly took long enough. Our guild's organized pve last night was Fissure of Woe. Fortunately, we were able to clear every area of FoW! There were a few quests left and about 1-3 mobs in all of FoW standing when I left.

After clearing the starting area and getting Ras safely to the first fortress, we decided to take a different approach than our normal runs. Instead of heading north to get to the "normal" forgemaster route, we headed off to the beach first. We continued our counter-clockwise path around FoW until we got to the burning forest (somewhere in here we lost our first warrior). There we took the groups that we needed to clear to get out of the burning forest and headed to the forgemaster quests. After finishing up the forgemaster quests, we lost our second and last warrior. We decided to press on and so we slayed the 2 Dragon Liches next then headed off into the forest of the wailing lord. We headed into the forest from the northwest entrance which ended up being a much safer path (i.e. from now on that's the way I'm going). We ran into a bit of trouble with the warriors there but after we found a good routine we made excellent time for a party of 6! After clearing the Wailing Lord's forest, we then moved on to the Burning Forest. We shamed the area's reputation if I do say so myself as we moved through most groups with little effort. After the Burning Forest, I left so the party was down to 5 but I'm sure they must have cleared the rest being there was so few groups left.

We did run into trouble every now and then due to bad pulls, over aggro, etc. but we had great communication going and some great head's up play which kept us in alive and kicking.

Thank you to everyone in the party last night. Excellent monking and teamwork!

Party: 2x Warriors, 2x Rangers (1 was me), 1x Ele, 1x Sin, 2x Monks
