    What did you just read?

    Just read 'Ready Player One', best book I have read in a long long time. Highly recommended and would likely resonate with a lot of people on this board.

    I can't generally get my friends to try betas, they always just wait for my review and buy at release so you are welcome to one of mine. No trade needed. I will let you know when I get them. Keep in mind though from everything I have read they are only good for 1 week.

    11 runs.. 1 super blue. All I wanted was 1 super black of course. Ah well.. good xp for Horus and Satan.

    I had the same issue, but with templates being the only thing that survives alpha, it is easier to justify building something just to template and destroy it. Once things go live though I think this will be a real problem for me.. I know they are planning on allowing multiple claims but I...

    It is the final floor that is a mess. The two pre-preemptive shields coupled with needing to do 6 million damage across multiple elements and constant orb changing was just too much. I also was not aware that the green one 'sleeps' until it is hit when I did my run which could help, but since...

    Understood -- even 8 is a really high skill threshold (Pretty sure even after a half year of frantically playing this game my average is still only at best 6). There are a few good online matching tools out there though that can help guide you and obviously Yomi and/or Venus can help in a pinch...

    Anubis is a nice roll! I am waiting on ROdin since that is all I really want at this point. Have a good number of rolls saved up so crossing my fingers!

    God I miss Shadowbane. Well, not the horrible bugs and crippling lag, but the scale and scope of it. The prospect of an added pvp engine complete with siege loadouts to a voxel based game is just amazing to think about. The existence of templates would make it so if you got sacked, it would...

    Well, Blizzard was never really about innovation... they were always about polish. Taking a turd and shining it into a lump of gold. WoW being the obvious example. Certainly not saying that EQ was bad -- it was amazing, but it was niche -- they refined it and mass marketed it, essentially...

    Tri-fruit are brutal. Gonna say red burst and Satan would be the only semi-reliable comps right now for 0 stone clears unless you are a 10 combo robot. Pretty much no room for error on any of the floors.

    B/D vamp is a good suggestion actually, I had overlooked that one. Would help with the sluggish recovery the team has currently at the expense of no longer having a sub benefit from Horus's activate -- which is pretty bleh anyway. Vamp would need some levels though.. currently sitting at a...

    Really loving the new Horus. Really wish there was a parser in game so I could see which I am more consistent with, him or Bast. My sense is that it is Horus now. Bast is still better for mind-numbing farms like weekly etc since she requires really no planning to consistently land 9-16Xs, but...

    There are two spots right next to the porter in 'Overlook' on Liberation. One set in a open building visible just to the west (I think) of the spire and the other half way up a mountain cliff you will see a platform protruding.

    Here is how I got rid of mine (I had a bunch of those trees you could not even right-click on to get rid of them). - Used selection tool to highlight the whole tree/rock and deleted - Deleted my claim - Reclaimed the same spot It took two tries but the second time, when the claim 'reset'...

    This. Smoothing and columns/archs are right now the biggest limitations in the game (in my opinion anyway). I am working on the entrance from Emerald Jungle to Sebilis right now and creating even the rough arches from EQ is very difficult since you need to cut a sphere and then smoothing the...

    Yeah.. you could theoretically do something like a burst team with a bunch of gravity subs and just stall a lot on the early phases.. but I didn't read up on it first so just went in with my normal Bast / Valk/ BOdin / Orochi / Gigas / Bast set up. Shield goes up as a pre-emptive so the stall...

    Legend is surprisingly rough with a burst team. Three rounds until you get one-shotted and even at 16x on all 3 you won't get him down. Had to switch to luci team for that stone. It's a good source of marine goblins if anyone out there still hasn't max'd out their Sirens but aside from that...

    You know, it might. I will try with mine on when I get home. Stone is a pretty easy farm with the high-end picks digging around 50 a shot so it certainly SEEMS like it should be a more reliable option.

    Yeah.. Sapphires are awful. Got enough for my line tool, and about 2/3 of the way to my next pick but that is after a few hours of farming cobalt. I have had 0 sapphires come from sifts despite dumping 100k stone through them (yes, it was a level 2 :P). Some of the stuff being made is...

    My issue with it is generally, I have created something that I wanted to template (for example I made a 'die' on my land about 5' X 5' which I wanted to copy), but when I try to block it off in the selector tool I can only position it so half the die 'fits' into it without making it into two...

    The tools are still pretty cumbersome for rounding at the moment. You can smooth edges obviously, but the smoother tool makes things look more like it is rain-worn than actually 'rounded' and varies a lot from click to click. Some of the tools (like the selection tool), I am not even sure are...

    Anyone got any screen shots of the actual entrance into Sebelis kicking around their hard drive? I have some once you are in the sloping entry hall but google is failing me on the actual approach to the dungeon itself. It has been so long. I remember the ruins but not the doorway in

    Some of those are amazing. Being the dick that I am.. I built a cute little building that when you walk into it, causes you to fall into a 80' deep pit that requires you to use plat-former skills to slowly work your way out

    Wildstar Launch Thread - Server: Stormtalon | Faction: Dominion

    Last night in game felt even more smooth than WoW does, whether it be because the servers were emptier or something they refined in the patch, I cannot say, but the combat was silky smooth.

    Think you are over estimating the impact a small closed beta group will have on what I suspect will be a very, very large population post launch.

    I 100% agree with this... it still needs 'more' to be actually fun, but wow is it sticky and addictive. Much the same as grinding mobs in Overthere was not really 'fun' but yet we all did it for hours and hours. There is definitely some serious potential with this and I was a TOTAL skeptic for...

    Yeah, this is what happened. I went to tier 3 to get a claim.. staked it and THOUGHT I had reverted back to Tier 1 to farm, but I guess I got bumped to a different 3. Did not notice the watermark in top left, it is pretty faint.
