Well yes, I accomplised it for first time this...early morning with Sir Air Jordan's team. After almost being kicked for no mic, fending off double teams by Korea, I scored a sigel.

Share your stories and expierences about your first time winning it.

This must be a european forum, no-one responding

Wish I had a story...Never gotten that far..

Somewhere either in the 2nd week or 3rd week, 8+ holding streak, the first users of the 5 man air gank team.

10+ streak, last team left for no reason and we got into the vault, then, we won HoH, then my guild won it again with one person down

note, we are fighting for europe now as most of the guild where on american servers due to the horrible lag and lack of favor

Haven't won it yet. What happened to our pug sessions?

TopGun · Jul 30, 2005, 01:06 PM // 13:06

Is it >possible< to win with a PUG? I'm not in a guild.

Xellos · Jul 30, 2005, 01:28 PM // 13:28

It's possible to win with "Pugs" like guild pugs or upper tier pugs, but low tier to middle tier pugs are getting smaller by the minute. Then again, so is the competition!

Rirobuge · Jul 30, 2005, 01:59 PM // 13:59

I only made it to HoH once. The funny thing is it was after only 1 win. But unfortunately my team didnt win. Oh well

TopGun · Jul 30, 2005, 02:11 PM // 14:11

What do you mean by "upper tier" pugs vs "lower tier pugs?"

Swarnt Brightstar · Jul 30, 2005, 02:15 PM // 14:15

I made it to HoH but we were demolished... badly....

Say Ensign or Rex or some other person that is generally known as a "top" player makes a "Pug" which obviously generally consists of top tier and maybe some middle tier players. That is a upper tier pug. Lower tier pugs are from the middle down.

Yabba · Jul 30, 2005, 03:15 PM // 15:15

first time i won it was with a pug (some people were rank 0-2

) .

The funny thing was that after the 3rd map we won in tombs 1 of us crashed (one ele if i remember correctly) and we didn´t thought we would make it.
But after 7 rounds we finally reached hoh and won it 2 times with a ranger hench and lost close the 3rd time (one enemy team capped altar 4 secs before timer would`ve been over)

The next day i joined a group of some friends as prot monk.
The moment we won burial my dsl crashed and i couldn´t come online for an hour.
They won hoh 2 times after my crash ...

Kellogs · Jul 30, 2005, 03:25 PM // 15:25

Won it once , in May sometime back when air eles wern't so common.

Got to it numerous times, back then it was body blocking, now its spirit spamming.

Ollj · Jul 30, 2005, 04:20 PM // 16:20

Got it and held it in the second beta, 5 times in a row, than the beta ended.

I didnt even know were i was. All i knew is that i got over 200 fame in a really short time.

Thoose were the times when you already defeat 4 foes teams by targeting and sticking together.

INFERNO2K · Jul 30, 2005, 04:40 PM // 16:40

I have never been with a group that has won the second round in HoH, with the 8 man group.

It's just way to hard.

cookiehoarder · Jul 30, 2005, 04:53 PM // 16:53

Yes it is possible to win with a Pug group, the one I was in was a bit of a pug.

DarkWasp · Jul 30, 2005, 04:57 PM // 16:57

Well about a week or two after the release, I was at the tombs and this monk was recruiting for his group. He said something like "Looking for 3 more players who know their build and no bull****" and his Guild Tag was [sB] but that meant nothing to me at the time. Anyway he gave the talk you know about focusing fire and every thing, then we organized the rift warden killing group.

At the time most teams in the tombs had 3 or more W/Mos, it was the build back then. We had 1, just 1 tank. And 2 rangers (Me and another), and the rest were eles and monks. Well we didnt get to the Rift Wardens it shipped us to the UnderWorld. We won there, and were sent to the Hall of Heroes. We got our hero in the altar at like 20 seconds to spare. We won 3 more times aswell. I got 2 rares and another guy got 2 sigils. And the other 2 rares and sigils went to other people.

When we lost and went back to the tombs, I gave my rare sword to the tank. And the guy who got 2 sigils was giving it to the highest roller. So we all /roll 100ed and I got 78 and won with that. And thats how I have my Guild Hall!

If the story doesn't make sense. /Roll was able to be used in public areas at that time. And also in the HoH ony one sigil was dropped per chest.

Racthoh · Jul 31, 2005, 03:22 AM // 03:22

Won it a while back with a PUG.

Didn't get a sigil.

Cursed PvP and never entered the HoH since.

Plommon · Jul 31, 2005, 03:28 AM // 03:28

I didnt get a sigil, but I got a crystalline sword
