Missing from this is Nurgar. Pak'Cafan's 'N

I joined Pak'Cafan late in 2002 when Pak took on several members of my former guild, still to this day some of us play here in Pak. At that time Pak was hunting a lot in The Temple of Veeshan. Pak had just recently had their first members get keyed for Sleepers Tomb...

Then there came the Planes of Power. Everybody always told Pak 'you have no business in PoP, you haven't done Ssraeshza Temple and Vex Thal.' They said we would never progress, never succeed, and that we would fall apart trying. We, of course, proved them wrong! This was also the time where many of Pak's leet strats were formed, and while I won't give them all away, I will provide a glimpse into Alchork's thoughts on how we would succeed...

And with that strat, we made every last Planes of Power tremble in fear at the sight of Pak'Cafan...

The Gates of Discord wasn't my favorite expansion, but I've got some great memories from those times. I was made an officer around this time and spent most of my afternoons in Qvic running Msha raids. For some period of time we were in that zone literally every single day, much to the dismay of other guilds...

And then there was the dyes. Poor Sky... There were some raids he couldn't go 5 minutes without having to change colors. Krezlin and myself provided Ganedra with a constant stream of dyes so he could keep up with Skywiser's futile attempts to keep his individuality...

We plowed through the Omens of War expansion, which were some great times for Pak. We had a lot of amazing people come and go during this time, and we got some amazing loot to go along with it! Here is a glimpse at some of our old friends with some of their epic 1.5's and 2.0's...

Really though, I could go on forever, giving the play by play for each expansion and it would be an amazing time. But there is only so much time and so much room on the webpage. Instead let me post some pictures that will hopefully jog some good memories from your time in EQ.

The Demiplane was a ton of fun. It took a lot to get through, but we really came together as a guild to make it happen, and it was a great experience. It felt so good to finally beat down Mayong himself...

I do believe it was the frogs that finally did it... I laughed so hard for long about this, I think Mayong must have laughed hard too, laughed himself right into his grave...

Speaking of graves. We do die a lot, and I mean a whole lot. We have a few though, who people take great pleasure in seeing dead. Let me give you some examples...

SCORE!

And then, of course, there is the other...

SCORE!

But really, there is one thing that stands out for me in Pak. It doesn't have anything to do with raiding, or with any loot or items. Nor does it have anything to do with dyes, leet strats, Shadyzar's mistells or mass wiping. It doesn't have anything to do with LONDON, and while it may surprise some, it has nothing to do with frogs (though I do miss Heap's frog hate!)...

What it does have to do with is a great sport, and an even greater friend.

Let me present you with this...

He truly was an amazing sport about this, and I don't know if I've laughed so hard for long at any other point in my life. He was such an amazing friend to these little guys, that come Christmas time, they dressed up and came out to play again!

and as you guessed, he reacted just as well!
