So saturday i was given lead of a 2 fg xp zerg in df, during a rebuild to replace players i managed to get an extra 2 fgs making it a 4 fg zerg, df was no longer an option so i turned my focus to summoners hall and opened the BG to all, saturdays turn out was 15 fg and we did some very nice xp i got lvl 34 - 41.5 in 4-5 hours aprox.

Due to popular demand i spent sunday also doing the zerg xp event but with a massive 35 full groups (200 players) xp was still impressive, i personally managed 41.5 - 43 in 2 hours + getting a friend who started at lvl 5 to lvl 25.

imo the zerg xp is the best form of leveling up till lvl 40 and for this reason i will never put a lvl cap on my zerg xp events from now on. thats right all there will be more zerg fun!

My zerg xp event will ONLY be on weekends and will NOT have pre set times and dates, it might be saturday it might be sunday, and who knows when in the day i will form, this is for obvious reasons ( there be albs and hibs in this thread ) when i build the zerg i will allow 1 hour for everybody to get themselves in order and announce in Jordheim + the Kite Squad alliance.

Group build suggestion; build what u want or even come along solo but for the best xp u can do the following -
x1 healer lvl 40+ / x1 shaman lvl 30+ / x1 PBT runemaster lvl 30+ / x1 melee DPS lvl 40+ will be your core grp setup, the extra 4 slots wont make a huge difference, i would recommend taking an additional 4 dps ANY level just so u can tag more than 1 mob at a time, also its worth noting that bringing a high lvl caster to pl a grp is not as effective as a melee, mobs are always about to kill and often instant respawns ( casters will be sitting most of the time + the zerg is always on the move ).

A final note; 35 fg's = no lagg / Grand Summoner kills ( did we get server first?? ) / time flies when having fun and the unique style i run my zergs provides much entertainment ( Player nameplates OFF ) / with 200 players the grand summoner died in 15 seconds ( the number of attacks on any target at any given time allows for ALL players ANY level to hit - do not shy from inviting a low level realm member in ur grp friend / guildy / friend of a friend / usefull class / all are welcome! ).

Ahh, i missed out. Oh well, hope i catch the next go round!

Sexy! I thought you had to be 36+ or something (that's what I heard anyway). I'll bring my 24 thane for some mjolnirr action!

Good luck with this, ur power pool is not going to be on ur side lol. And hib????? What happen to alb!!

excellent, looking forward to this weekends XP zerg, whatever day it happens.

Can anyone join? I try to committ 6 hours a night to grinding out some levels but by the time I get home from work I waste half that in the queue. Could use a little boost on my new Berserker so I can start doing some DF stuff and upper level dungeons. Just frustrating when half your leveling time every night is wasted in the queue.

Awesome ! I will definitely try to be there XD

Guess I need to stay on all day so I can get in on the action ^^ Level 16 warri LF zerg group!

abit of advice for the low levels keen to take part, if u join the bg and sit idle waiting for someone to invite u into their grp as a leech u will most likely no get grped, the last 5-10 minutes i prompt all grps to fill slots with the remaining solo's within the bg since there is no more time for people to head to svasud faste ( i leave on time ) waiting for this moment is not advised.

instead take the initiative and become a grp leader, start with finding a 40+ melee dps, then to keep him happy by finding celerity or endu asap. some people will leave the grp soon as they check ur level so be sneeky and invite many at the same time, often the higher lvls wont be bothered by 1 low lvl while they are surrounded by players their lvl.

at the end of the day nobody wants to lead a grp, the extra effort into organisation should be rewarded right? like getting pl'd?

Glad it worked out for you lad

èverybody is leading SH raids now. xD people love it
