Liam saw the fist of Eltrunk racing towards Unmovable Brute and decided to try something risky and probably stupid.
He quickly made his way to the left side, jumped and swung his sword from below his waist and up into the 'arm' of the tree. His hope was to try and knock it off course enough.
It seems luck was on his side this time as the punch move a couple of inches to the right and just brushed past Unmovable Brute's head.
Unmovable Brute came too almost instantly after threw a glance to Liam and nodded his head before casting Taunt at Eltrunk, whose fist was being pulled back.
Unfettered Dream watched impressed at the move Liam just perform but kept quite. He didn't want to distract him.
While this was going on Liam could feel his heart beating rapidly, the stunt he pulled went well this time but who knows what might happen if he tried it again. Liam made his way back to the to his flank position and continued the same strategy, however he was a little more reserved as the roar Eltrunk did is dangerous.
After the punch missed, Eltrunk continued using it's branches as whips while added stomps and punches into the mix. Unmovable Brute was being kept on his toes the entire time, but was still hit by the stomp attack twice while blocking the move. At this point he had lost only 330 HP and still wasn't below half life, showing how much vitality he actually has.
The guys had been Fighting Eltrunk now for now for an hour and had finally reached the 1000 damage point when two changes occurred. The first was that the boss started showcasing a new move. Eltrunk would lift both arms in the air and bring them down like a hammer, smashing the ground and causing a shock wave around it. The move caught Liam and Unmovable Brute slightly unawares but nothing fatal happened.
It was the second change that is causing more issues. A team of five players found their way into the clearing and started making their way over to the boss intending to get in on the action.
"Mind if we join?" What looked like the leader was the first to talk. It was a stockily built middle aged, with short brown hair and a long scar going diagonally across the face. He was in blue heavy armour top to bottom with a large battle axe on his back. He was called Delta One.
Even though the question was asked Delta One's team were already in place to attack. The team was a basic five man team, consisting of four males and 1 female, with a single tank and healer class. The rest being DPS of course.
Delta One's team got into their positions and we're just waiting for a signal.
"Guess we've got no choice if you want to join. But we need to party up, distribution is for whoever needs it." As he was the most free, Unfettered Dream answered.
"That's fine, we have no intention of kill stealing from you guys. Besides no point until we can PVP anyway."
"I'll send the party invite" Delta One's team recieved the notification and joined in.
Liam noticed the additions and was especially surprised at the names and levels. They were Delta One, Delta Two, Delta Three, Delta Four and Delta Five all at level 6.
'A guild team?' That was Liam first thought, but before he could have another the newcomers started their attack.
A bluish white arrow was forming in front of the player called Delta Three. He was the mage of the team. He had long black hair with a handsome face, wearing a blue robe and equipped with a metal rod affixed with a small blue crystal embedded on top. The magic he was casting was called magic arrow.

Delta Three finished his channeling and fired the spell towards Eltrunk.
-76
The magic hit for much more than Liam was doing, showing that Delta Three had put most of his points in magic.
Following that attack, Delta Four used Charge. It was a valiant looking woman, wearing light blue armour with a spear in her hands. Her long brown hair tied in a ponytail was swaying down her back as her attack connected.
-34
The boss took 100 damage in 2 attacks. Poor Liam looked a little distraught seeing that as he was only doing single digit damages numbers.
Delta One also used Charge from the opposite side to Delta Four causing even more damage to Eltrunk.
-44
At this point Eltrunk roared and stunned Unmovable Brute once again before throwing it's fist at him again. However this time Delta Five jumped in with a taunt skill of his own which stopped the boss while it turned to face the newcomer.
