Hey guys, getting into the game more and was thinking about doing the T1 for the Terraway. Have no experience with speed clears so just wondering any tips?

Also any way i could get a practice group before i dive right into it? get a little more comfortable with the run?

Best way to practice is to be in a guild that does it regularly.
They usually do test rounds to teach new members how to do it, that way they don't have to wait for the same people every time.

Or you could just join PUG groups as a Pro T1 and then if you die or screw up simply pull out your Ethernet plug or zone out.

Works every time.

There are training runs being formed in ToA and otherwise you can form one yourself. Best bet is to do with friends though or guildies that wont instantly rage at somebody dying.

btw if you get into a group pray that escort doesn't fail if its a training group from ToA

Ah, i remember my first time.

i'd like to pass down maybe some helpful tips my father gave to me upon my first time

try to create the right atmosphere. it is important that everyone is feeling comfortable before you go in. maybe have a drink, put on some motown to make the room feel a little softer. Often candles can just add that finishing touch.

check your equipment. make sure everything is working properly before you go in. I'm sure nobody wants to spend their first time with someone who isnt equipped for the job.

Then once your ready, slowly enter the UW. Once your in, try not to get too excited and prematurely end the run. dont ever be afraid of taking advice. Also, dont try to cause pain. Remember, it might not just be your first time, it might be theirs too. The last thing you want is to hurt the somebody and end up in tears because you got to excited and didnt do the job properly.

If you do these things properly, the UW should be a pleasurable experience for you, and whoever you decide to go with. Dont forget that once you have completed it to clear up the mess and take your items from the floor around the chest.

Remember, it takes practice, you wont be the Ron Jeremy of the UW on your first go.

Hope that helps...

You forgot someone of the party needs to bring a Protection Prayers skill. Don't want to end up cursed or a with an extra leeching party member.

Could I log onto that guru "mumble" server and find a group for the UW? Maybe a Terraway T1 or whatever the OP was talking about, so that I can learn how to do it?

ToA is pretty intimidating. I really just wanna go kill Dhuum for the statue anyway.

Is that mumble a good resource?

Just log on and see. The more the merrier. And if you cant get a Group there, then you can at least chat
