So, my first time in Scalecaller Peak. We stuck at the very first boss. Two ogres. It was insane. First, we rushed like a couple of mind dead goblins and died, and died, and died. Then our tank made us listen for at least a minute before charging into battle. Cool guy he was. Actually, he was the first normal person who explained tactics and stuff to the group. I tried to do the same ever since.
Anyway, he explained what we had to do. So we tried... and couple of tries later we actually won! Then it was surprisingly easy. I mean, that alchemist and his plague - that boss gave me a lot of troubles even on normal many times after that, but not this time. And, you know, I really felt like we were a team at the end of the dungeon. It was good. Never felt this way ever again.

Also, another time. I don't really remember when it was, but it was hilarious. So, every time I did a dungeon, there always was a guy who knew what he was doing. You know the type. Huge CP, kills everything without your help. He kinda charged us with confidence, helped us do our job and win. I always looked at this guy, learned the stuff and thought myself as an apprentice of a sort. Never thought that one day it will change.
But suddenly, after reaching certain CP... I found myself to be this guy. I had the highest CP in the dungeon, I was kinda... dungeon master!.. And suddenly everyone looked at me. When I stopped, everybody stopped. When I rushed into battle, everyone did.
Responsibility was scary as past guar meal. But I hope I did at least a half decent job keeping people alive and showing them the basics. And it's definitely something to remember.

During the Elsweyr event players thought and acted like dragon hunters. A dragon appears on the map, and dozens of strangers gathered at the nearest wayshrine and watched the skies.
As soon as we could predict where the beast would land a small army raced towards it. It felt truly epic.

Wiped both opposing factions countless times with the help of Masher and the rest of the OG Merciless Guild members. I'll never forget the sight of the ground floor of Chalman completely covered in dead baddies.
However it was the way I got it that was the most memorable part. The campaign had reset and I was playing solo the first few hours then with one friend for a little while later, always in the top 10 but not 1st on the board. Slowly and surely though I kept climbing towards that first spot..
Unbeknownst to me another guild had their guy in first and was pushing the circle for him when I overtook him. This other guild didn't even realize it had happened until there was only one keep left and right about that time I gave a shout out to Merciless that I was in first so they helped me flip it to crown me. There was no grand plan, just me playing my ass off and then getting really lucky with how things lined up.
The leader of the other guild lost him mind and was saying I boosted to pass his guy, wouldn't help defend and I'd be dethroned within an hour. But I held it all through the day and then the busiest night of the week and just laughed for 19 hours while he cried.
Plus my consolation prize when I was finally dethroned was a lifetime supply of bags.
