Several things might be different about a teaching run than a regular quest run.

For example, more/in-depth explanation might occur, not only before we launch from the meeting place, but also inside the dungeon. This would also result in a quest run time that is much longer than usual, allowing for such instruction to point areas out, etc.

I like, too, that we have a before-the-split corpse recovery run for those who were lost and unable to be recovered by means of permitting corpse loot. Not many other groups will arrange that at all. In fact, not all groups will even stop to allow for people to loot their questmates' corpses like we do. It's something that people remember us for, something that sets us apart. And we wait for downloaders and we portal out the people that are having lag trouble.

What I would like to eventually see - and all three of my upcoming characters Ilu, Sigh, and Khalani WILL be built to withstand this (I HOPE :)) - is to arrange an after-the-split retrieval, if this is even feasible. I know, though, that this requires very dedicated uppers and lowers to execute, as well as a very tight, organized and very destructive team to move through and do this. *shrug* Very likely, though, this is a pie-in-the-sky idea, and I know that.

I know, too, that in Guild Goldensword, Doc has some lower-level characters that are now eligible to go on this quest, and I've been DYING to get him on one of these runs with me :) Also, Brute (member of AoM) has an archer (a Guild Goldensword member) who is now level 36 and able NOT ONLY to go with us in the lower group if he so chooses, but he could also function very well as a permanent Master camper :)

Okay, I'll hush now. I guess I just got excited about my idea and went all over the place with it. Hehehe, I don't know, maybe this discussion should be extended to the co-leads on the mailing list. Hmm...
