    Me too. Quality control, yeah baby !!

    It seems like it gives that error when the person you are reporting no longer er...exists. I tried it out this morning by attempting to report mails from guildies as spam and it seemed to work just fine (Don't worry I didn't follow through on reporting any of you)

    So you're gonna wait half a year? :D

    I didn't get a hat, but I got the shoulders!

    Sure why not? I'm not in love with the outfit so not using it doesn't bother me, and this is totally the wrong time to sell it with the raiding costume pieces in a state of constant undercut.

    Was today raidin' hat day or something?

    I also got one from a boombox this morning. I banked it. Going to wait until everyone's boomboxes run out and then see how the prices end up. If it winds up being valuable I will sell it, if it winds up being cheap I'll bind it.

    Nope, today was 'Second day in a row of Elder Gem x1'. For me, anyway.

    I got the Raidin' shoulders awhile back, but that and a crimson red dye have been the only things of value I've received thus far, everything else being crafting mats or rep boost potions. 80+ more chances, we'll see how it goes.

    Boom Boxes as a whole have been kind of wimpy. I think the only nice things I've gotten so far has been an Elite Garden and some Raidin costume pieces that I didn't want(I don't like the costume). The rest have been either crafting mats, 1 EG, or housing decor(not cool housing stuff, but like stuff like Caged Lights that an Architect can just make for ~1g).

    If any Big Damn Heroes see this this afternoon and can invite "Lumenaire" back into the guild, it'd be apperciated. It's my medic reroll. Only seen one other BDH since I started again, and I think he was too busy to respond to the request. Thanks!

    Everyone thinks lopp are all cute and helpless. Then you see one of their guards one shot some bullshit that almost killed you five minutes previous. Don't get me started on Marshal Yatish. He drinks blood from the SHINIEST skull.

    Oh sure, every time you come across him he's got bodies piled up at his feet, but does that tell the whole story? No!

    When you need to kill that named birdman in Malgrave
    Yatish shows up when the dude's at 2% health and snakes the KB.

    He's a phony!

    Because of Yatish, I firmly believe that those two granok women in whitevale were not "passed out drunk" and were in fact, dead. They were dead granok hookers from the bachelor party. And that lopp was the one that killed them

    I've seen this before in some of the trees, similar situations. Usually you can craft one of the things it's telling you to craft and if you don't see "1/5" pop up or whatever you try the other one and it works. Generally they want the harder thing to make, the thing that requires additives.

    Mining is crap right now for making money. Everything xenocite and down is selling for below vendor cost.

    Creating amazing opportunities to capitalize by buying it all and then selling to vendor. This will in turn decrease supply and then costs will go up.

    It's not far enough below vendor cost to make it lucrative to buy and re-sell. Just low enough to make vendoring what you already have the only option (or craft with it and vendor the results, which makes slightly less after paying for flux and power cores but gives crafting exp at least).

    Also uh. Don't vendor mining resources. That's an atrocious idea. If stuff is selling below vendor prices right now, buy that shit. Wait one month. Become a zillionare. There are a million alts leveling right now. Next month those will likely have leveled out quite a bit.

    Seemed to be the other way around, actually. Titanium as an example started out far higher than vendor price, to the point where you could make 2 gold off of just 20-30 of it. Now it's dipped below vendor price in just a week.

    I could fill up my entire bank with ore in a week if I didn't want that space for anything else. I have as much stashed away as I care to devote to it, but beyond that... it's getting vendored/made into weapons (which I then vendor because crafted weapons don't sell).

    There's also no guarantee that the prices are going to go up, so buying at a loss over vendoring could bite you in the ass. But in any case, I can't buy up this ore (which is only priced a few coppers under vendor btw, so it's not something you can buy and then vendor to make a profit) because I have no more room to hold ore.

    Meh, level 22, full crafted insight gear and a nice support weapon, and I can't teleport into the damned 20 dungeon when using group finder. Guess I'll keep cutting down trees.

    The Medic bug with engineers is still in the game.

    IF YOU ARE AN ENGINEER TANK AND YOUR HEALER IS A MEDIC, REMOVED REPAIRBOT FROM YOUR BUILD. IT CAUSES THE MEDIC TO BE UNABLE TO HEAL YOU.

    There is absolutely NO excuse for this kind of shit, and I'm glad CREDD is so cheap because this is not worth $15 a month. Every day I'm discovering more and more bugs, and this is now gamebreaking stuff. I literally have to make a macro now to spam when there is an engineer tank that they have to change their build just for me. Not to mention broken quests like the eldan fragment daily (Yes, it is a daily: the NPC literally tells you to come back tomorrow), War of the Wilds (no no, not just objectives!), disappearing buffs, and much much more!

    Do not add new content. Fix bugs. Fix bugs and never stop fixing them, because new content is just going to add even MORE bugs and that's the last thing the game needs.

    Could be worse.

    Wildstar could be at the 'paid beta' level like Elder Scrolls Online.

    Yeah, at least the game is functional? I mean, combat still feels fairly sharp barring some latency issues.

    WILDSTAR is all qued up for the big ol' 3 Months Past Release Patch that fixes the bugs which should have been fixed before release.

    Could Digitex get an invite to the Dominion guild, please ?

    I've had way more bugs in Wildstar than I had in ESO.

    Anecdotally, I have heard of FAR more bugs in ESO, and I've only played the beta of that.

    Not that fighting over who has worse bugs matters, since as an MMO, they're gonna fix that over time. Hopefully sooner rather than later.

    Thanks to the guys that ran Veteran Adventures tonight. Notwithstanding what should have been a gold on War of the Wilds and the lag on Siege of Tempest Refuge, both of those, particularly the latter, seem fairly doable to achieve gold on.

    We did get a ton of blue upgrades for folks though, so that's nice. And getting two Silver medals for some people's first Veteran runs was pretty awesome.

    Ten years is a long time, people expect things to be a bit better now.

    That said, played WoW on release day and I'd say the game had a ton of server stability issues but myself and my guild didn't encounter too many bugs during the leveling experience or during progression, except when we semi-cheated with a Paladin talent and one shot the world boss Kazzak.

    Wow, when they adjusted the vendor cost of the architecture decor items I didn't realize they reduced it below the vendor value of the raw materials.

    Iron plank = 5.82
    5 Iron Chunks = 5.95

    That's pretty lame.
