Plane of Hate Adventures
Nice to see there still is a safehouse.....
I am here to recount my adventure in the Plane of Hate
I was feeling pretty well about myself so i decided to ask my guild mate for port/translocate method in Hate. I take off all my gear and stow it in my bank. He agrees and we're off.
I zone in, he casts translocate, I hit hide/sneak, and the race has begun. With a timer inside my head counting down from 3 minutes, I try to make my way through Hate towards the fabled book.
I get lost and in time, I find the wizard and he leads me to the room. Translocate wears off. I walk inside, turn to my right, and I look to the dresser. The book wasn't there!
The wizard casts a spell but is aggroed by a nearby mob now that his invisibility has dropped. The mob casts a stun and we're both stunned inside the room of the Book. I step into the shadows and am hidden again. The wizard panics and gates.
Now I am stuck in the middle of a plane known for its <cough> hospitality <cough> with no way out and empty handed. The wizard used his last hate stone to get us there and I am stuck/lost.
I pray that no liches will spawn and stay outside of the cursed room. The wizard gets a new Hate stone, ports in, we meet at safe point, and ports us out.
Two days later, the wizard agrees for another shot and we port in. I look around and to my dismay, I see a loathing lich right at the bridge to my right. The wizard has never been to this safehouse, and therefore, did not know the capabilities of a loathing lich. He takes 2 steps. My heart skips a beat as I see the lich turn its hooded head turn towards my friend. The lich sees him, attacks, invisibility drops, and in the time it took him to walk 2 steps, the wizard falls.
Not to have his death be in vain, I sprint as fast as I can to remain hidden. I pass the bridge and give a silent sigh of relief as I know that my friend's life has helped in some way.
I continue towards the Book of Souls and I see, to my dismay, another lich. I slide against the wall to avoid being seen. In my head I make a silent note to thank every Shaman/Druid/Ranger/Beastlord that gives imbues me with the spirit of the wolf. I pass the lich and I see the steps that are in front of the room. I open the door and creep inside. I see another lich and curse my luck. Well, my luck isn't all bad, and the lich was facing the wall and towards me. I turn to the right, go up the staircase, and grab the Book as instinct kicks in.
I return to the safe point and listen as the wizard tells me all his plat was on his corpse and he can't buy a new Hate stone. Luckily, a 50 ranger was working on the last part of his epic and a rezzer came for his group and rezzed my friend. He ported us out and if I can help it, that'll be the last time I'm in the Plane of Hate for a while.

My friend, work your way up in the ranks of the roguish brotherhood, for when you attain the 63rd rank, you will then learn how to be extra stealthy by shrouding yourself in shadows.
Those loathing liches will never see you coming!
