Does anyone still run Reaver's Fate?

Shockingly, the aniversary event got me interested. I couldn't TAKE the Gloves of Eternity because reasons, but now after looking at the loot I am interested in picking up a few odds and ends. I haven't seen any LFMs up lately(for obvious reasons) but I'm wondering if this is a raid that still typically gets run when things are going well.
  

I'll never understand the propensity of people to brag about being good at a video game. Its a toy you play with for fun. The only person who should be proud of you is your mother. If you're 3.

ON khyber they were run during ITR's a lot.  People would use the saga for xp and run the raid once as they leveled, since it is fast, easy to short man, and solid xp/min.  The groups would usually get about 7-8 people.  Rarely filled.

But if you are looking to run it overlevel just for loot, that's something you would want to get some guildies or friends together for.  It can usually be done with 2-3 epic toons with little effort.  Of course, that doesn't make for a lot of chest rolls so hopefully you can get some folks who are flagged and willing to give you 15 minutes you need to run it.

I was trying for a Cloudburst for reasons awhile back. Was on a toon on which I was doing the ETR cycle and that could easily handle any of the fighting in there solo at any point in his ETR. I just tossed up an LFM to hopefully find at least one person that was able to keep the air ele's off me while I did the end puzzle. I'd list the LFM for 14-28 (was max at the time) and only kept the LFM up for 5 minutes or so after I got the first person that joined. Usually was rolling within 10-15 minutes and ran it every 3 days until I got my Cloudburst.

So the way I see it you can either hope someone on your server does that or you can be that person. It's really not hard. One person can handle both flying and the puzzle (that person being you). You just need people that can keep the air ele's busy while you puzzle if you're on a class that can't easily cc/kill them without too much thought. If you're on one of those classes then you could just run it completely solo.

Used to run it on elite, at level (18) every TR: once you get past the ice room it's cake city.  It's actually very good xp to milk on other diffs after getting that bb/eliteness streak.

I rarely see LFMs for it.

I did it once last year with 2 other guys, elite at level, was stressful.

The one where there's a pack of giants at the end attacking a dragon that you have to keep alive, right?  I forget the dragons name, it's something like Axeinyournutses or something.

Still a challenge at level.   

Easily soloable at level 30 if you know how to do the puzzle or can use one of the online solvers.

It does have several nice items for TRs.

Before you get to the end fight, you have to go through 4 rooms: an earth, ice, fire, and wind room where an undead-Stormreaver is fucking with a weather machine (...again...); yeah, I like that raid.

Reaver's fate is the Gianthold heroic raid dumbass, you are talking about Stealer of Souls(it's not a raid).

Did you ever play that game faggot ? Good luck on your job searching  Grin

You don't see LFM's for it because it's so easy to solo.

Damn, I was just about to post this.  I'm surprised he hadn't already resorted to that.

is there a trick to loot without getting completion? Soloing is fine, but I'd rather not have to spend weeks grinding it because the item drop rate is poor.

Is there at least 1 drop each run on solo?

Not that I know of.  Just do it on a life that will include multiple ETR's (etr doesnt reset raid completion counter), use some timer bypasses when you feel like running more than one in a row, maybe multibox to double your odds.

The bad news is that you're not guaranteed a named loot in each completion.   You do get a 20th completion list.

Best bet is to multibox it and/or open it to the public and ask them nicely to pass you the item you're looking for if they don't need it.

Ive been running that shit here and there because tring ate my ring.. idk why. I hear of others having problems with that same item. I lost the epic one as well. Its strange...

But anyways.. youll be lucky to get 2 other people to join you that you dont know.. its not a problem soloing but need more pulls.. the only cool part is that it inly takes like 8 to 10 mins. And the 20th list now has everything like the newer raids. Idk if all the old raids are like that now too.. havent done a 20th abbot/von/adq/anything like that. They used to drop a few tomes a few items to chose from a seal and some garbage. Now its full list. That helps.

Let me know how fot and the raids that came out before that are now. I remember doing 60 vons for my first sos and a buddy doing 80 something fots for the shield.
