    It's kinda strange that I have time for this, since I never bought the game. I don't think I even ever played it before.

    The classes and dugneans are freaking awsome, bugs and low population aside.

    Yeah, AND you get cool stuff so its probably worth it. When you get off the island let me know, like i said i can mentor down and we can wreck faces, alot of the dungeans got changed to be more small group friendly.

    I'm jealous. 4 more hours till I can even download it!!. I loved so much about this game back in the day but the friend I played MMO's with didn't really get into it as much (I also got REALLY angry back in the day when they nerfed my Psion's ability to charm awesome OP enemies, considering some of the other bugs that still existed at the time).

    If people end up forming groups for some of the dungeons, I'll be rolling a disciple or a blood mage this time around so you'll have some heals.

    As ive said thats the one thing I really likied about this game was all the group dungeons etc, so im definaly down been doing some scouint with my necro on the low level dunngeons finding all the named mobs etc. We just need to figure out the group dynamic so to speak, as long as we have a healer and a tank we would just need some dps etc.

    What kind of billing options does this game take besides credit cards? I'm interested in trying Vanguard, but a bit hesitant to use a card what with the recent Sony fiasco. Paypal maybe?

    I don't think you can find any other way to pay, since they aren't pushing the game they dont have prepaid cards, unless they do prepaid station access cards. also those of you who got the free 45 days you dont need to set up an payment option it just 45 days no recurring.

    so anyone online right now?

    I think me and a couple of friends will give this a spin once our current WoW run goes on hiatus; I remember dungeon running being outstanding in Vanguard. "Ooh, ooh! I see a cave!" "Fuck yeah, let's go spelunking for riches and death!"
    Will the classic tank-healer-DPS trio work for most dungeons? I remember adoring Dread Knights and WoW's taught me I love tanking.

    I need to scratch that MMO itch until SWTOR comes out...how does this play? I've watched a couple gameplay videos, but wanted to know how grindy it is. Are there a lot of quests? Phat lewtz and all that?

    What classes do people like playing? Monk sounded neato...but then again so did Cleric.

    I think I just fixed the invite permissions, and I also promoted everyone who's been on in the last couple days so they can invite too

    I'd recommend disciple - fun class with some new mechanics, able to solo well and groups nicely too. Kung Fu healers, just full of awesomeness.

    I also found Druid to be a fun nuker with some nice utility/heals on the side.

    My other choice would be blood mage, also a healer with decent damage and neat mechanics.

    For new folks who want a change, try adventuring in Qalia. Its a middle-eastern/north-african themed continent and breaks the northern european mold aka Thestra. You can level up your entire career in Qalia and never go anywhere else, true enough.

    Well crud, I can't play this right now can I because of all the SOE/PSN stuff? Guess I'll have to just wait.

    Thanks for the tips, I may look at disciple...I like being able to heal some, but being some kind of martial artists ALSO sounds fun. :)

    Disciple is really cool, I like it a lot. Agree on the reccomendations of Blood Mage and Druid as well. Monk is really tough and good dps but it's not a healer at all. Most of the classes get a ton of abilities and lots of utility in this game, so I don't feel like you can make a terrible choice.
