So we get stiff once in a while. So we have a little fun. What’s wrong with that? This is a free country, isn’t it? I can take my panda any place I want to. And if I wanna buy it a drink, that’s my business.

wasn't a beta. they called it a "dress rehearsal" and it was basically the same thing EU was doing. Mostly a small stress test and making sure people can actually log on and nothing melted on their end. The EU just decided to extend it I'm guessing because of the flubbed sneak peek.
I have my three names for my characters, following my usual pattern and two alternates for each using the same pattern. Then I have two completely non-pattern names just in case **it hits the fan.

I roll on regular PVE servers because it gives me a better chance to get one of my "normal" names since people are more likely to use names like that on PVE servers than RP servers.
Of course, that also means I have to put up with seeing names like that...

I actually like that the character creator has sample names by race if you feel like RP-ing it up.
Or was that the races page on the game info section of the site. I might be remembering wrong.

huh, so apparently it's only the people who ordered from EME's store that keep their CBT progress/names what have you.
I know anyone who pre-orders from anywhere gets to reserve one name between the end of Closed and the start of Open, and get to participate in Early Access. Also, since they aren't wiping the servers after Open Beta, anyone who was in it will get to keep their characters.

Another EU stress test in about 6 hours according to twitter.

In a way I'm kind of glad they're sort of pulling back the curtain and willing to work with their customer base to make sure things go smoothly for everyone.

I got in as well so I might see you guys on Serpentis Isle. My wife's running a mage and I was going to run an archer but now Beezel has me a bit worried now. Usually I always regret not going archer but you're saying their dps is supposed to be crap compared to the others? At least at ranged?
If so .... maybe Mystic. Whats the difference gameplay wise between a mystic and a priest anyway? And can they kill well enough?

Archers seem like they're going to take a bit more skill than at first glance. Depending on glyphs and crystals they may favor a pure crit/attack speed build compared to other classes and focus on weaving in and out of range depending on aggro spikes.
Priests are basically your beginner healers. Good at reacting to spike damage. and have multiple aoe heals that target in a circle a set distance or a cone directly in front of the priest. They have 20 minute buffs that can be provided to the group as well as shiled/bubbles. They also provide stun/knockdown resistance so are pretty popular in pvp
Mystics are for when you trust your group and have good communication since their method of healing is a little bit more passive. In the form of orbs that apply a HoT. that hot is interrupted if the user takes on any damage before the duration is complete. They also get a multi target lock on heal/cleanse and a summon that performs aoe healing. Their buffs come in the form of toggled auras such as crit, movement and attack speed that makes them popular in endgame pve
Both healers are fully capable of healing endgame content and both are able to solo well enough, with the mystic coming out slightly ahead in that area due to summons. Their damage output is low but good enough to kill quest mobs. You won't be fast soloing any BAMs with them though.
Edit: I should also note that mystics are the only class capable of restoring the mana of others via Blue orbs similar to the health orbs, An aura and an active chain spell that leeches life from mobs and converts it into a mana aoe.

depending on how bad General and Area chat are those are probably going to be the first things you want to get rid of. I guess we can make our own channel and password it. I think we can password our chat channels in this.

was asked and answered on their twitter earlier.
In other news I'm looking forward to the first real dungeon bosses and field BAMs. The first attempts are sure to be hilarious as we all flail around with dicks for hands.

I guess it's a good thing to only get 1 character slot for this. It'll give me a chance to sit down and figure out if I would like actually healing in this game or not.
I have some things to figure out myself. I don't hate the thought of jousting style combat with the archer ... I just don't want to turn into a leper no one wants to play with T_T

We just had a little one tonight actually.
That's what we were discussing a couple pages ago.

Nothing from CBT should make it out of CBT.

Even the GMs are trolling now.
"...only mights and maybes."
Arachnaea-PVE
Frost Reach-PVE
Serpentis Isle-PVE
Tempest Reach-PVE
Dragonfall-PVE
So which one are we gonna do? Dragonfall still?
I'd rather not invest any time I'd just have to redo, so I'm curious at what point I get to keep my name.
five? Goddammit that ruins everything!
I'm open to suggestions?
Edit: Friend suggested Serpentis Isle. Sounds fine by me
"...only mights and maybes."
Also, R.I.P my Level 17 Aman Slayer, I hardly knew ye'.
"...only mights and maybes."
Name reserve will take place between the last CBT and OBT.
Serpentis Isle it is then!
They're all lumping up on Dragonfall last I heard.
