It started with a suggestion to revisit UW to try some of the hard but rather early quests, and it developed into a full scale clearout (almost).
I (N) , Anavrin (R), Kira/Kara (R), Lulu/Jane (Me), Anne/Gigs (Mo), Darius (W), Bowline (R) and a friend, lady G (Mo), did very fine up to the mountain where Bowline got disconnected. We finished it and finally got Anavrin a spider (Congrats!). After that we continued to the mesmer plain. Cleared most of it rather easily, now when we know how to do it, and got the regular ecto rain that seem to hit this plain rather heavy. Continued to the spwaning pools and cleared it. Unluckinly the reaper was killed by some terrorweb during the final fight - we all thought we were going to be thrown out - but were not. It was pretty late so 3 of us had to leave after that.
The rest (W, Mo, R, and N-battery) continued back to the mesmer plain, cleared out the last 40 mesmers and got the monument. Starngely we got no ectos while doing this. I wonder if Anet have coupled drops with party-size (actually not a bad idea in my opinion, hehe). Since we only had one monument left we continued to the bone pits. That area is rather easy with a mesmer equppied with scatter hex, but not for our tired party of four. 1/3 in we had to cancel because of the late hour and the slow progress. Great trip!
We got a solid load of ectos, and lots of gold drops and of the chests about 3/4 were gold ones. As for my build I used my battery build with dark pact to add some party redundancy, which proved very useful in the end. Dark pact is a cheap and fast finisher, to take out dying critters (as long as you have solid self heal).
