    Sorry about that. Just add me to contacts so that I get the pop up and know when you're online and I'll be happy to give you a tag. As for those who are casual: you're welcome to join the guild and participate in guild chat etc. Keep in mind that we're focused on raids at this point though -...

    I've heard this a lot and I don't think that the people saying it really get it. Obviously I can make more money working at my job for an hour to afford my monthly sub. I get the necessary gold requirement as a byproduct of doing something I would be doing anyways however. It's not like if credd...

    What he's probably not seeing/experiencing is that once you're 50 and capped on your elder gems for the week you get a boost to your gold farming automatically. I am by no mean good at farming and I've made a little over 20 plat after having bought 2 credd when they were first introduced at 3p...

    Had a little under 40 online in the guild yesterday during prime time. Streaming has had roughly the same number of viewers. Normally this is the part of the month where I see at least 50-60% of people stop logging in and the conversation starts to tilt towards how MMO subs are evil. Fairly...

    Depends on the server. Pergo and some of the PVP servers have guilds that were clearing raid content during Beta. Stormtalon is the largest PVE server but doesn't have any such guild like that - we were the first to complete attunement.

    Yes. Sorry, I try to keep the roster tidy and removing the inactives especially with the first month having so many people that reroll / quit - if you're back and want an invite send me a tell in game.

    haha, I spend the vast majority of new runs just telling people to stop moving and focus on interrupting. It's always great trying to explain to a spellsinger that if I see him out of melee range at any point in Stormtalon that I'm going to do everything in my power to get him killed. Sometimes...

    It sounds like you're running with the wrong people. Warriors do far too much damage right now given how much they bring to the table outside of DPS but any group that's doing dungeons and not maxxing out on MoOs is not doing it correctly. Warriors are a god-send as DPS because their shorter...

    It was actually just carbine informing you that you needed to reroll on Stormtalon. They were doing you a favor if anything.

    Learning Stormtalon on vet is a crazy amount of fun. I'd say KV is slightly easier (except the second boss).

    I think the cred system is an amazing way to get over the monthly hump that most MMOs face. I know a crazy amount of people that stacked up on playtime via it and NCSoft ends up getting the same amount of cash. I say that Wildstar stays a sub based game for a long time to come and avoids the...

    haha. While leveling your build should look completely different from when you hit 50. It's necessary to respect once you get to 50 in order to fix your build to something that will work in adventures/dungeons.

    Finished Stormtalon veteran tonight. Easily one of the most fun dungeons I've played since original DSM in Rift. Requires high coordination among your entire group but never feels overly long. There are several annoying bugs that occur but it was extremely rewarding/satisfying to complete.

    Veteran adventures are puggable at 50 but they're not a super easy joke like most people are used to. The important thing is to go in there with some type of gear (you should take some time once you hit 50 to go buy the rep gear from Grimvault. Make sure you have your neccessary DPS amps and are...

    The builds you you would (at 50): 1- Single target BC spec 2- Multi target electrocute spec 3- 'In the Zone' maximum threat tank spec 4- Max Shield BOT spec (when repair bot is fixed). 5- Some type of PVP spec There's no utility spec for any class. Wildstar does not have a utility role...

    Yeah, Engineer is one of the weirder classes - you start level 1-25 with Pulse Blast spam and then when you get to your 30s you unlock Bioshell, EA, BC - by the time you can t8 Electrocute there's all types of fun to be had.

    It's certainly has it flaws: the performance can be quite poor, the low level experience is frustratingly mediocre, and they've had a lot of issues that new MMOs have: queues, annoying bugged quests, etc. With that being said it's easily the most fun MMO that I've played in a very long time...

    The queues definitely suck - I'm happy to see that they're on the ball with server transfers & opening up new servers. For reference SFA will be staying on Stormtalon. Edit: Picked up the guild bank and modified the permissions. There's a limited amount of room so try to make sure to only...

    The guild is made and we have a pretty healthy population. I understand that waiting in queue is entirely frustrating, especially when you have friends playing. Most people voted that they'd be willing to sacrifice the potential of long queues to ensure that were on a server with a healthy...

    Hour & half to go. Time to play the MMO launch guessing game: 1. Do the servers actually launch at their designated time? 2. Of the first 24 hours, how many hours will be spent in downtime? 3. The first level 50 reaches it by what day? 4. Will there be some type of dupe/exploit that breaks...

    I'll never understand why companies don't try more things like it.

    On that note, I'm getting an extended nap in before launch. I've replied to all the PMs I've received about the guild and everything is set for tonight. Just figured I'd make sure everyone was aware that I wasn't vanishing before launch but I won't be answering anything else for a little bit.

    Rifts soul system was an illusion of freedom/control. There was always one or two specs that were superior in every way and required you to play that way in order to perform at the top. During it's heyday (HK) warriors used the RW spec, rogues used MM for range or NB/whatever for melee, mages...

    I think one of the bigger mistakes that people are going to make is that there's going to be an overabundance of Spellsingers based on their early game dominance in PVP (1-25). They're a fun class to play and pretty much the opposite of Espers in that they have incredible mobility. With that...

    I'm just happy that someone else shared this line of thought with me. I mean, Chuas are by far the best race and they're downright hilarious to listen to (don't judge my sense of humor!) but the Engineer armor set is actually pretty god damn awesome and it's lost on Chuas. So I'm stuck with...

    That's impossible to answer without knowing more about you. Wildstar is probably the best theme park MMO released since Rift and it exceeds Rift in every way imo. With that being said, if you're looking for an MMO that will revolutionize the genre, this couldn't be further from that. It's...
