Phew first dungeon is no joke.

Bosses not that much damage but lots of dancing. Trash packs were too dangerous to pull room to room though between boss 2 and 3.

Fuck... I'm fine with queues but the god damn error 2002 can fuck itself.

I am 90% sure you can avoid that by staying active in the queue, rather than letting it sit idle while you alt tab. I just moved the queue window up on the screen every time it defaults back to the middle.

This time the game was not tabbed out. Went to rest 15 min in bed and came back to 900 place but error 2002.

Fuck’s sake, midway through a quest I lose connection to server and can’t get back in.

Fuck you 2002.

Gunbreakers new tank cooldown is nutty.

30% DR for 4 seconds, 15% DR for 8 seconds, a 900 potency heal when you hit half life or when the buff expires, can be cast on a party member (when when you do, gives them your brutal shell)

All on a 25 second cooldown.

i'm glad to hear, i felt like the 'healing' on gunbreaker was kind of bad compared to say, warrior

Tried switching Data Centers and the EU one I'm on crash with error 2002 when I select it. Tried making a character on NA Datacenter (Behemot server) and it was fine. 1k queue only as well. Not sure if I should just buy the MSQ skip and dick around on that server instead. over 9k queue on Odin EU.

I’m trying to work out the point of early access when I’ve spent at most an hour ingame and around eight in the fucking queue. It presumably will only get worse when general release comes round.

there's not even close to enough MSQ XP to keep even 2 characters levelled and this is with full rest XP, and using a Wonderous Tails book.

I may have to do a levelling roulette on my main to keep it at MSQ appropriate level.

Also Fandaniel's voice seems to have randomly changed for a cutscene. It's not nearly as good now. I wonder if that's a plot point or if the VA changed.

Definitely, I could barely click on the Sage class NPC even pressing X to clear all the idiot nametags.

Not shocked that it's the highest login count since release; just really sucks it happened during a major chip shortage.

Also, it appears that the cutscene trick to stay logged in doesn't work anymore, or I just got really unlucky. Left for -32- minutes and was back at login while in a cutscene =/

Well damn, I thought the afk timer was 30 minutes. Went to take the dogs out and feed them, come back to start screen, was only gone 20 minutes. Rip 3400 queue.

What do people spend poetics on? I dont need gear on the reaper. Doing bozja and hit cap. Also need to turn in the discontinued ones for something I guess, more poetics?

Man Ocean Fishing is pretty busted, did a run cause I figured I wanted to get my Fishing up for ventures, gained 2 entire levels(from 80.7 to 82.7) with 0 spectral(2man boat with a newb, so even the spectral fish I got didn't proc) and since I wanted to try the big fish I was conserving GP so didn't patience spam. Shit's pretty fucking stupid xp, final score was only 1800 so in a "real" boat I'd guess 3 or maybe 3.5 levels could be possible.

On SHB release it got steadily better after the first day / this basically was the release. I understand the game is more popular now so not totally sure, but I hope / think it will be similar.
