Too Pro For Zak -

Well todays zak run (january 5th) was supposed to be special because i FINALLY would help my friend get a zhelm and I want you to hear the story...

My good friend Blake, a 13 year old boy who has done nothing but nice things for me in MS such as gift me items and such, asked me if he could buy zhelm from our AoW group. He also asked me if I could loot it for him because he would be out of town and his comp wouldnt handle it. Normally I would say no but since he's done so many charitable things for me, I couldn't refuse. The responsibility of going on a friends account and looting a zhelm is greater than you can immagine. If you die, your ass will become roasted pork chops.

So finally today, the big day came for me to get in there and go on a lvl 59 assassins account with just 3500 HP WITH hyperbody and survive throughout zakum and loot the helm. Normally, on my white knight, i never die anywhere but with 3500 hp... it was a difficult task. So anyways, the arms got killed no problem, the DK was owning and sammi (even without max dispell) was healing pretty well. After 2nd body however, things got chaotic. We brought 4 CBs to the run with an original plan called "operation: BOMB THE FUCK OUT OF ZAKUM". The plan didnt work as planned because by then, there was only one CB left standing (Glen (obviously))..

So as the people got killed one by one at third body, and glen was doing best he can using 10k bags, my DK finally died... Obviously I could not survive without HB, and all the other buyers died (even sammi eventually), so i asked for a new party with a DK. Max partied me quickly and everything was going well again. The priest had max dispell and healed like a pro so i was very happy... until both her and max died... With 10 people left, Nick had to party both me and glen. Nick was my final chance for a DK. After joining the party, i saw nicks tombstone drop, and realized it was over... The rest of the people died after.

This just keeps me wondering how i've endured such an emo zakum run and managed to stay alive on a lvl 59 assassin with 3500 HP, making random remarks sometimes, giving tips, and being able to jump from party to party, while everyone else died and failed me. In the end, we just had to bail. The only ones who came out were me and 3 or 4 other party members (glen died on purpose to loot mesos lol). Blake was so excited to get his zhelm (I told him we were on 3rd body when he came online on his cleric) and i just felt horrible for him.

So I wasn't able to keep a promise to a 13 year old boy, and what makes me really mad is that it was not my fault (not blaming anyone tho).

Just had to get that off my chest.
