It was my honor to join Dol Amroth in the third quarter of 2001. I remember so much of the continual days of raiding within the Planes of Power. There are more memories, and more stories to tell then there is room and interest for a post of that nature. But looking back on those days brings some very fond memories. Being the “kid” of the guild at the age of seventeen certainly had its disadvantages. But somewhere along the way something just clicked within me – being average was no longer acceptable. The tables have certainly flipped.

Will EverQuest survive for a 10th year? Of course it will. But there are people hurting out there. When the Depths of Darkhollow was released (Expansion #10) it was a glimpse of what raiding was to become. It was the first raid that really forced you to field a full force of fully competent and focused players (and to be honest that is not always easy). Events like Hatchet, Redfang, Performer and Mayong Mistmoore were just the beginning of what was to come.

Prophecy of Ro continued on with that trend. The hardest event for a guild to overcome would be Sullon Zek – but there were also the events like “The Toiling of Dissonance Bells” and “Vertigo” – a mistake by anyone could easily cost you the raid.

The complexity of the events only got worse. With the new expansions events like Grenwald, Beltron the Shade King (which Wraith/Reviviscence/Radiant are on), Lethar 2.0 (which is so stupid to even bother with anymore) started to haunt guilds. Least we mention Solteris, the Throne of Ro which waits for them. Solteris consists of splitting your raid up into different teams doing different roles in nearly every event. The raids of early EverQuest pale in comparison at the complexity that we all now see on a daily basis.

The days of the smaller, family orientated guilds are nearing an end. In order to survive the world of EverQuest, and progress you must be bigger, faster and stronger then ever before. Yet even on our server there are guilds that defy this very thought. They have not given up, and show no signs of doing so. They are fighting a fight which might ultimately fail – but they are refusing to give up. Somewhere along their EverQuest career something clicked within them.

When other guilds across the EverQuest servers shut their doors the guilds of Quellious keep ours open, we continue on. They continue to provide their members with new encounters to see and learn, new memories to gain and ultimately more fun to be had.

The tenth year of EverQuest is coming. Hopefully it will be wonderful for everyone.
