Our teaching raid series is back for 2016 and is now in its 3rd week!

Legendary Hound of Xoriat is a new addition for our teaching raid series, so I made a video of the event.

[Vooduspyce]

I've added a lot of supplemental videos to the list since I made the op. I also just added the live stream of the Legendary Shroud teaching raid that we did last Saturday.

I am planning on live streaming most of our teaching raids this year, so if you're not on Sarlona and can't join us, you can watch them live! I will be streaming through my Youtube channel

[Vooduspyce]

I've added our live streamed teaching raid of the new u35 raid Riding the Storm Out to the list! This raid has only been out for a few weeks, so new information and strategies may emerge, but this shows how the raid works on LN and I discuss tips and important mechanics to get you started if you're newer to it!

[edit]: I removed the video that was here and replaced it in the op with a newer live stream we did on 1/13/18, which has more information about raid mechanics that we didn't understand as well when it first came out.

I wanted to let everyone know that our 2018 teaching raid series has begun! We are live streaming the events again this year on my youtube channel, so even if you're not on Sarlona, you can watch, learn and ask questions about some of the raids that you are new to or still learning. Every week I post details of the events in the Sarlona forum, which will typically be every Saturday at 9pm EST during the winter and spring.

I am planning to add the new Ravenloft raids to the op list soon

Killing Time added!





Our 2019 teaching raid series is in full effect and we've had great attendance so far! If you're on Sarlona and new to raids and you're interested in attending our teaching raids, check out the Sarlona forum for details of our weekly teaching raid events throughout the winter and spring.

Not entirely off topic...

Is/are there some raid(s) you'd recommend to solo for farming Greater Tokens for ETR?

I'm guessing Chronoscope would have to be toward the top - any others, or any general advice in that direction?

EDQ is an easy solo farm.

I've added a tutorial of Too Hot to Handle to the op. This is a narrated tutorial I made on live stream from videos of 2 different runs so that I could show and discuss both top and bottom lever puzzles

[Vooduspyce]

We did our Project Nemesis teaching raid last night and added the video to the op

[Vooduspyce]

The Dryad and the Demigod has been added to the op!

[Vooduspyce]

Just added How to solo Legendary Hound of Xoriat to the op
