Good morning everyone (at least those of you on the opposite side of the world, where it actually is morning). It's another bright, shiny day of F2P, so get on those queues and get Wild... and stuff...
 
It's not quite dinner time in Taiwan, so enjoy the beef noodles I had for lunch instead :3

			It's 2 am and now I am hungry D: look what you did!

OMG Bubbletea! I love that stuff, used to have it all the time in Korea town in the US, but I dunoo where to get it here in Manchester :(
I'm watching Faceoff online at the moment, yey special effects make up.
Has everyone seen the Mordesh Make up by Making Hell?

She says she'll get a female Draken one done :D
 
Also I'm very sleepy, my cats and husband wouldn't let me sleep. :(
 
But at least I got to log in this morning, shame the shop's not working yet.

Good Morning :)
 
So we've launched into F2P....
Was kinda of rocky to say the least. 
But late in the evening the servers seemed to be more stable after the several restarts we had on the European ones.
So I'm guessing we're going to need another week or something for people to start spreading out in the game and distribute the load.
 
That being said, already made several new friends ingame :)
Had actually fun going to the starting zones and talk with people, answering questions and helping them out.
Even recruited a few into the guild as well.
 
As usual, same with launch, there's the usual trolls on the forums right now.
Still having a blast by poking them and seeing them explode for ridiculous stuff.
They're going to have a blast when real-life hits them eventually with such attitudes.
 
But yeah, we're free 2 play and exploring all the new thingies the game has.
Don't like the rune system though.
It's confusing and not really sure what to spend money and tokens on.
Talking about money.......it's frigging expensive to rerune gear...	
----
			
20 minutes and I'll have noon. Time to think about something to eat.
 
Anyway, client is still downloading (at least it will continue as I get back home), patiently waiting off all drama that is happening. Bro-in-law yesterday attempted to get into the game, queue said: 146 hrs. Ouch.
 
But me sitting calmly, by the time I get whole data situation will surely calm down. Folks in the previous coffee thread reassured me I'll have access to all my characters so - no need to worry, right?
 
I roam the today's forum and see what - characters missing. Reason: inactivity. So yet again, "fear" reaches its cold, thorny fingers toward me. looks like it's time for another tea.
 
And lunch.	
----
			It's 11:45 pm here and I think I played to much last night... Coffee be praised!	
----
			
Morning!
 
I just finished my coffee...
 
I've been long playing (not quite since day 1...) and long reading a lot on the forums, but not actually saying that much. Well, I figure now is as good a time as any to change that.... 'cause if we want Wildstar to succeed, we should all pitch in to make it the best place it can be, so here I am... pitching in!
 
Anyway big update... how'd it go?... well...
 
My gear was all present and accounted for and all appropriately (though newly) stated. (I hear that some medics ended up with things like Stalker tanky support systems, likely just because it was a bit of gear that had support on... I imagine that's a pain)
I sifted through a million and one mail attachments, have stupid amounts of rune tokens for trade in, MASSES of new elemental resources, and a ridiculous amount of new power cores from all the old ones I'd accumulated.
I didn't look at crafting yet. I looked at the rune sets... my brain melted a little. Then I looked again, and it started to make some mild amount of sense.
I have not runed anything yet...
 
Bit of general chatter in Illium, helped out with a few newbie/returnee questions. Most people seemed fairly amiable, despite the crazy lag at the time.
 
Then switched to an alt to start doing the same thing. Someone suggested a dungeon so I switched back to tank it.
 
Then we were all bumped back to the character selection screen while zoning into the dungeon.
 
... and could never get back in (presumably because the zone we were now 'in' wasn't working. Though I tried the alt again and they didn't get back in either)
 
Then I stopped for the night.
 
All in all... not even nearly the worst expansion/mega-update I've experienced in MMO's :)
 
(The first major expansion for WoW was an utter cluster-cupcake compared to that :) the first major stat revision was no better either! :))
 
All in all... pretty solid as far as major updates go. Thumbs up!	
----
			
 
First night of almost making a level, not really much has changed gameplay wise.
(well except it feels way "easier")	
----
			
Morning.  Sitting here drinking black tea and eating pizza for breakfast (10:45 am here in England). 
 
Servers seemed a lot more stable in EU last night and I encountered virtually no lag.  The only times I had to leave was for the server maintennance.  Going to be having more Wildstar fun soon-need to work on getting used to the movement aspect of the game.  I know I'm going to enjoy this game a lot. 	
----
			
Also... I should mention...
 
The Lil' Beast pet is the most adorable thing I've ever seen! He actually bounds like a puppy.
 
*wuv*	
----
			
Well, it's almost 5am here atm, which is only about an hour before the time I typically dream about waking up and being productive at. The Wildstarring has been pretty good so far. I got on my engineer last night and did some leveling and BGs (How I missed BGs!). I'm also happy to announce that I bagged my first griefer post-F2P launch. Level 50 stalker terrorizing level 8s in Algoroc. 
 
 
He was a slippery little guy too! Chased him off 3 times before I finally ran him down. Not bad for the first day!
 
Now to decide if it's better to get some sleep or try to just start tomorrow...err today.

Had coffee, practiced my Deutsch, decided to see if everyone calmed down here in the forums, toxic as always -sips more coffee- , gonna start working on my daily coding and back to PvP realm <3
 
P.S: i never got to say this yesterday but i am so happy "Morning Coffee" is still around <3.

The ones calling you carbine-white-knight?

Well for me and my guild, we were pretty demoralized by the rune system, the associated cost, and our inability to make the necessary fusion runes. So we'll see how it shakes out, but as of this morning I've got zero goodwill left for Carbine. Just one more avoidable mess.
 
On the bright side, the lil beast is pretty neat.

Damn, tea seems to be not working - I'm starting to be a bit nervous. This anticipation... And I have 2 more hrs before I can get out from work, at least 3 hrs before commencing download. 
 
I'm way too old for this but I feel excitement like a teenage girl on 1-direction supporting Bieber concert. Looks like today will be judgement day. Damn for the second time, I need another tea*.
 
BTW - can you have a carrot pet? When i played it was not an option but heard some rumors about it. That little orange veggie is quite adorable.
 
 
 
* - and no, I'm NOT addicted to it.

Thread needs more coffee. 
 
 
And some sort of breakfast food, like maybe a bacon taco. 
 
 
So far I have leveled an esper on exile side so that I can grab a pair of gloves for wardrobe, and made nutella filled blintzes. 
It's nice that the pvp queues pop more often on Exile side, but the wins are pretty rare. So quantity vs quality I guess. 
Meh, I should be glad they pop at all.

			Good morning!! I wasn't able to play much yesterday between maintenances I decided to just focus on cleaning my home. Hoping to log a lot of time today!

Today's coffee is starting to taste like mud.
 
I think it's been sitting on the burner too long.

			Day 2.Although the lag is gone (for now), I am a bit dismayed. I can solo the 5-man quests in Blighthaven but not in The Defile. Moreover, the latter has a ton of 20-man quests and, well, I barely met anyone there while I was clearing the story. Oh and did I mention that I am not looking forward to grinding endgame reputations on my Chua? Looking at you Crimson Badlands and that place in the snowy mountains with all the moodies. Star-Comm Basin, I've never actually done so there's that. I guess I could always just go on the Exiles instead, where I do not have to grind the first two reputations? Or was a speed-up mechanism implemented? I really, really do not want to grind them for a month again...for like the 4th time.More to do, more to do! Also, more to do!

Well, the little guild seems to be doing okay. Picked up a couple of solid returning players, and one of them is even a level 50 who just came back. Seemed to dig the whole "we're here to help" vibe, which is awesome. We need some more leadership if this is going to work for long.
 
I got a little bit disheartened this morning on Facebook. I talked up this game for days leading up to re-launch. Got people all fired up. Out of the dozen or so friends who "bit" only ONE of them was able to actually play at all yesterday. When I logged into my account this morning, I was met with post after post from my real-world friends expressing their rage, frustration and "screw this I'm not leaving WoW for a company that's so obviously unprepared" rantings.
 
It is very disheartening to me, to do my part to bring people in (and back) to the game, only to see Carbine fall (once again) flat on it's collective face.
 
*sigh*
 
Sorry for being so salty. I had such high hopes, and I ain't giving up ... but dang.

Fits my sentiment exactly.
The problem here is simply that the sceleton crew remaining, might not be able to live up to the hype or expectations returning players had.
 
Then again, the same thing worked out well for another classic sub mmo that turned f2p recently.
You will lose some of the vets, yet a big bunch of new players sweep in expecting something different.
When the money starts flowing again, the ramp up in ressources in dev will push more features out and so on.
 
So I'd say, hang in there for a while this could become quite a ride.
 
Little sidenote: I do agree with the fact that it could and should have been handled a little bit better.
just seeing how "many" officials where available for the community the time shit went down, is already way less then what we saw at inital launch.

{| class="blockquote"
It's not like they were hording a giant stack of cash to get better servers. We got here because the revenue from the traditional MMO model was not working for them.
 
Sorry you got an ear full, but you should have known that this, like every other release we have had was going to be bumpy.

Hey there. Been a while since I peeked in here.
 
Spent last night doing some tidying on my housing plot, and looking at some other plots. Some are already revamping theirs completely, making nice use of the extra space. Looking forward to seeing the cozmotronic new sights these bigger plots will bring!

Good morning from NY...
 
Oh goodness, I had to wait in queue.  The world is coming to an end.  Really...not.  I just had to say if from at the complaints. 
 
I dragged a friend back, he's Canadian.  After he got through the connection issues, he was able to create a new character, he forgot everything.  Anyway, his decision was to wait for things to quiet down.  I'm actually gifting him CREDD to build me a haunted Frankensteiny housing plot.  He used to be a bar designer before the bottom fell out in Canada.  He's very talented so I shall put that talent to good work.  I am good with managing people and computers, he is uber with housing.  Now if only I could design my characters long black hair with a white stripe like Lily Munster, it would be so cool.  He's also going to help me with a star ship design and a very Aurin leafy resort.  For that he gets three months of sub.  Really I would just give him the sub but he won't take it, so this is my sneaky way of doing it.  Thank goodness he doesn't read these forums.  He knows my name...ugh. *smiles cheekily*
 
We're both looking for a good RP guild exile side if you know of one.  We play both GW2 and Wildstar so our attention is shared but we both like to be in that environment.

Morning everyone! Didnt get to try to log in to see the mayhem but hopefully will soon. Working 7 days a week takes its toll when trying to find time to game. But I still look forward to being back.
 
Olivar, thank you for being awesome in all these threads. Only reason I read half of these crazy threads. And the only reason they are worth reasing. Keep up the good work! 
 
 Other than the craziness and lag, has everyone been enjoying what little time they have had to play?

My you are a mildly sarcastic little Chua aren't you....just teasing.  I agree with much of your sentiment and am finding it hard to bite my tongue when people complain about the little things or when they say the game is much better now that it's F2P.  Yes, that makes a lot of sense.

Heh I finally managed to log in late last night, but all I really had time to do was extract items from my mailbox and inventory. With the lag, that took around an hour and a half to complete. XD Oh well. I got my loyalty mount and all that jazz, so I'm happy for now. Hopefully there will be time to work on housing later today...
 
... but I must get myself to work here in a few minutes. QQ. Even though I'm still feeling nauseous from last night's shrimp and snowpeas. x_x

			The Black Dagger Society still lives? That's good to know. I actually met a member while on my Chua. We duo'ed Aggregor in Crimson Badlands. For a moment, I thought I was hallucinating.However, I am 100% done with this lag. It is making what would otherwise be a trivial task (clearing Fragment Zero) into an exercise in patience. It is truly a pity because it cripples what would be an amazing game. Anyone happens to have a way to speed up time? Things should calm down within the next few days but I don't want to wait :(

----
			*happily sips* (I woke up an hour ago, does it count ? My sleep pattern is completely screwed.)Hello good people from the coffee thread, whom somehow attracted a new player here :3Tried to play yesterday to little avail, the PvE server seems quite crowded here on EU, I even got disconnected due to maintenance in the afternoon when I was very close to logging in, but I remember damn well the nightmare some other MMOs were on launch/relaunch. (I don't know if it's really appropriate to call this a "relaunch", but since it probably attracted a massive amount of potential new players and created some sort of "hype" among them, I'd say so)After I gave up on the seemingly endless queue for J... y'know, that PvE Eu server, I just had the time to create a character on Warhound (Luminai was crowded too, just wanted to check out if one server was available for a first look), go through the tutorial for Dominion and some early questing, then had to go. Hope I'll have more luck today ! Or maybe I should consider Luminai. I just have bad memories of "PvP servers" where newbies get slaughtered by mid-level players looking for a punching bag in pretty much every possible zone, or mass murders due to an "accidental" massive AoE attack from a high level player. Anyone mind giving some input on the situation there ?Either way, I'll keep waiting, this game got me at its level up animation.	
----
			
Went into GA last night because we are crazy. Lots of lag an very painful. But at least we learned some things and I think folks saw how important runing was going to be :)
 
Also had a new guy who wiped the raid on x-89 because I said "move up" and he healong ran to the boss while the rest of us stayed on the bridge and died while it collapsed. I laughed SO HARD I had tears running down my face. It was just too funny to see this one guy run ahead and the entire rest of the raid fall to our deaths. And then he was like "whaaaa- I thought I was 'moving up'?" I hope he didn't take it too hard, but it did serve to break the tension with all the frustration from lag.
 
Rest of my week will be getting my warrior runed up and doing as much content for omni-bits so I can remove runes from my gear with service tokens (now that I realize I can replace my 100 runews with 120 runes in my 116 gear).

Seriously, we should just stay the hell out of those threads. When regulars like us start talking noise to angry, upset and frustrated people, we are NOT HELPING. Like, at all.
 
I am sorry-not-sorry to say that I've started reporting the regulars who go around being hurtful and antagonistic. You've already helped run off two waves of players, can we not throttle it back "just a little" this time, maybe, pretty please with sugar and honey? Just leave them alone.

And I didn't help run off anyone.  If players didn't stay, it had nothing to do with me.  They should maybe give it a few days before complaining on the forums.

I have not been hurtful or antagonistic to anyone. I have never once said F2P players get out. I'm trying to get once subbers to come back because it is F2P. My problem is the once subbers who think the game is better now that it's F2P. It is not the F2P first time players. It is not the subbers. It is the people who think free is better because it's free. It's the same game. There will be launch blues. There always are.

			I think the problems just lies in everyoje being frustrated which is understandable. But there has been way to many personal attacks or people targetting one sepcific person on both sides of all arguements. Though that is not a topic for coffee :) So whats everyones plans once thr dust settles?

			Amazing, second day after launch and i still cant play this fcking game, its either over 1 hour long queue or problem with character creation, this company is pure garbage.

----
			
Let's see.  First round of classes come and gone, and students all at recess.  A nice, warm, "French Roast" coffee in the cup.  Sky tending to rain outside.
 
Oh, a question!  Mucking about with forum use.  Profile pictures: can free to play accounts set a profile picture on this forum, or are those paid acocunts only?  So far, not a single image has successfully uploaded, regardless image format, and regardless image size.
 
Tested signatures with my WoW characters' listings.  Let's see if that works.
 
Edit: It does.  Signatures definitely allowed.  Profile avatars... still uncertain.
 
Edit again: And, for all the discussion and argument around the issue, I was able to log in last evening with no queue, and no appreciable lag.  Just looking into the "learn the combat system and such" training mode, thus the first very few character levels, and I admit to liking what I see of combat mechanics thus far, limited as my experience obviously is.  Also, not generally needing to target a specific enemy model for attacks likely gives nice graphical support to physical conflict in roleplay as well.  Enjoying the gameplay of my engineer thus far.

Convince my friends who are frustrated to try again. Keep recruiting newbies. Start running some groups, since Khandi generously donated a TeamSpeak server for our use.
 
Then, one day, I'm going to log in to all my active toons and empty their mailboxes and see the damage that was done to my gears. I just don't have the heart to do that yet.

Hoping things are a little smoother today. That lag yesterday was disheartening. At one point I was just zooming around in the game and talking to people. I had 3 friends try to play for the first time yesterday and they were all left a bit discouraged. They have all 3 told me that they will try it again, but they're going to wait until it's confirmed working. Hoping for soon on that one.
 
Hope everyone has a great day!

Let's see.  First round of classes come and gone, and students all at recess.  A nice, warm, "French Roast" coffee in the cup.  Sky tending to rain outside.
 
Oh, a question!  Mucking about with forum use.  Profile pictures: can free to play accounts set a profile picture on this forum, or are those paid acocunts only?  So far, not a single image has successfully uploaded, regardless image format, and regardless image size.
 
Tested signatures with my WoW characters' listings.  Let's see if that works.
 
Edit: It does.  Signatures definitely allowed.  Profile avatars... still uncertain.
 
Edit again: And, for all the discussion and argument around the issue, I was able to log in last evening with no queue, and no appreciable lag.  Just looking into the "learn the combat system and such" training mode, thus the first very few character levels, and I admit to liking what I see of combat mechanics thus far, limited as my experience obviously is.  Also, not generally needing to target a specific enemy model for attacks likely gives nice graphical support to physical conflict in roleplay as well.  Enjoying the gameplay of my engineer thus far.

It's nice that the pvp queues pop more often on Exile side, but the wins are pretty rare. So quantity vs quality I guess.

Seriously, we should just stay the hell out of those threads. When regulars like us start talking noise to angry, upset and frustrated people, we are NOT HELPING. Like, at all.
 
I am sorry-not-sorry to say that I've started reporting the regulars who go around being hurtful and antagonistic. You've already helped run off two waves of players, can we not throttle it back "just a little" this time, maybe, pretty please with sugar and honey? Just leave them alone.

Don't like the rune system though.

REGARDING FORUM PICTURES:
 
1. Make them TINY. Like ... 72K or smaller. The smaller, the better.

Good morning, coffee people!
 
No coffee for me as I am sick. Damn co-workers spreading their infections everywhere!
*sips on some weird lemon drink*
 
Alright so... F2P... 
 
I got on yesterday and I regretted it. But I am stubborn as all hell and stuck with it.  Took forever to grab all of the 20 mails filled with items!  Not only that, I went and crafted replacement gear, some ilvl 60, some ilvl 90.  I think I only had my boots on when I logged on o.O but most of the implants/weapon attachment/etc stuff was replaced already on character.  It was just my weapon and armor that were some weird tokens.
 
I then went and did Space Madness.  Oh what an appropriate title!  I almost broke my mouse, keyboard and the damn desk in frustration.  Good thing bots apparently don't know what lag is and my artillery bot kept on chugging along at the enemies.  Lag almost killed me but not quite many times.  The beauty of heavy armor?!?!  Also half the time the mobs were attacking my artillery bot lmao cause I wasn't managing to hit anything!
MOOs?  What are MOOs when things take sometimes 20-30s to register?
So I got to the vending bot enemy... who HEALS HIMSELF!  And I'm supposed to interrupt him from doing that.  I think he healed 10+ times before I managed to pre-emptively throw a CC that landed when he started making his move.  I was feeling like a psychic by this stage... and my desk was moaning "stop hitting me".  Yep, my hand hurt quite a bit and some very very not nice words came out of my mouth.
 
Space Madness alone was enough for me to log off in disgust and go make characters on BnS Taiwan.  Cause *cupcake*that noise.
 
This morning I woke up at 4am cause I'm sick and headache+coughing=awake.  So I went and bought a couple of gear pieces and got to average ilvl 80.  Then proceeded to grab some runes in trade. Can't do exceptionals because... yeah.  I just made the best of what I had.
 
I was going to go do some contract stuff when I remembered... the DJ housing item and all that fuss.  Apparently I didn't get my rewards for subbing since May... because who knows.  Ticket in, who knows if there'll be an answer this year LMAO.
 
So... you guessed it... I logged off in disgust and went to grab some icky lemon drink and some cold medicine.
 
Lastly... Carbine ruined my plot. I mean, it was already a shameful display but now it's really really a SHAMEFUL display.  I had attempted to align some ships and things to give it a shipyard vibe, it's about all I can muster, but now there's all that space and it's looking like someone threw some shit in the middle and walked away.  I'm not adding ANY neighbours at this rate nor buying any fancy sky and land because even I don't want to see my own housing plot now.
 
A lot of items in my holowardrobe say they are not obtainable anymore.  o.O I'm so sad cause they include the awesome heavy metal orange shirt that is my favourite piece in the whole game.  YAY, I got it but all the freebots are missing out!!!
 
I bought an item by mistake because the SORT and FILTER options in the AH are still set to the old stats. I had to outsmart the system to find the 61+ ilvl gear.   :(((((((((
 
ICK ICK ICK
 
Alright, all the negative out of the way... 
 
My new crafted gear looks amazing.  And weird.  I turned off my costumes cause it's so quirky and awesome.  I look like a robot with or without helmet on!  WIN!
 
I don't know if I should redo my load-out.  Volatility seems to be a huge problem right now but it also could have been all the lag making me miss my window and wasting volatility.  Overall power did not feel decreased without runes, I'm sure it will feel even better with my terrible runes. *grin*

Yeah, I also noticed I had a lot of "no longer attainable" pieces in my wardrobe.
 
I just don't understand why they'd REMOVE skins that were already in the game.
 
Well, unless they plan on reintroducing them in the future, either as gear or cash shop skins.
 
Seems ... kind of weird to me. I dunno. A lot of this transition stuff doesn't make any sense to me.
 
I keep hearing y'all moaning about the new Rune System. I haven't even TOUCHED my runes. What's going on there?

			Speaking of wardrobes, being able to register two identical pieces is inconvenient. I can sort them out but the OCD completionist in me doesn't like it, lol

Yesterday was National Coffee Day....
 
How's everyone doing? What new and amazing things have happened of late in the game now that it's F2P? I apparently missed the title option since I subbed on the 23 of Jun. That was quite a bummer considering I left myself subbed from then to now without playing, just to support the game. Oooooooh welllllllll! I just wanted to help add a little bit of revenue and have!
 
I see quite a few familiar names, have people returned or did they stick around regardless? I'll try to keep an eye on this post between work deadlines. Kissies!

Morning coffee thread! Morning coffee thread! Wait... 30-9-15.... what is this madness. 
 
Happy F2P everybody! I missed yesterday's national coffee day coffee thread =( but I'm here today! It makes me really happy to see very long coffee threads again! They haven't been this good since I actually actively participated in the RP community. 
 
F2P Launch was pretty standard fare to me. I didn't honestly believe I was going to be able to meaningfully play, so I got my stuff from the bank and logged. It was great to see how crowded thayd and the starting city in Algoroc were! 
 
People everywhere, great energy. They're playing this game because they're good people. They want the best MMOs and they want to win. We're going to make Wildstar Great Again. 
 
Today presents it own unique challenges. For one, I have to get off work early and get runed up before raid. I only ended up with about 20 exceptional tokens too, I though I had more. And I forgot to open the last weeks t5 contract reward, so that was fun. 
 
Keep your fingers crossed that the game is playable!

Is that really booze, or did they find out you can get drunk from drinking the explosives? With as much beer and beer jokes the Exiles have, it seems very confusing that most of what you see is slapdash moonshine looking stills. It's a wonder most of the exile population is not blind.

Pappy Crowe explicitly recommends that you buy it, but don't drink it. Because he prefers his customers to stay alive, so they can purchase more slush.
 
/edit: The Crowes also aren't Exiles, they are criminals who are persecuted by the Exiles. Don't you people know your lore?!

			Honestly, I'm more Exile than Dommie right now :P Just created a Mordesh earlier. I still love how they look... took me only three attempts to finalize the character creation. I then decided that today maybe still isn't the best time to actually play the game, when I had to wait a whole minute until I could accept the first quest.

I campaigned at one point to have clear dates for the coffee thread, but people persisted using the ambiguous local dates. 
 
Last night i managed to open all the mails on my three main characters. After that i was too tired to find the NPC and look at what i could get with all my vouchers. I figured I'd just log on to an old lowbie PvP alt for some quick action. I had a mandatory name change, and even she had mails to go thru. Had no choice but to find the voucher NPC since she had no weapon. Things were a little laggy open world, but not too bad.

She mentioned the log-in errors, the character creator errors, the NCCoin errors, some misplaced mobs ... I don't remember it all. Regardless, she mentioned the lag and said, straight up, it's not a priority fix.

I see. That is a pity. I guess we'll be stuck with the lag for a while so...any suggestions as to what to do in-game? Anything involving monsters and doing challenges is pretty much out of the question for me...

			I'd wager the lag should be a priority issue as it effects absolutely everybody from F2P new players to the vets.If these new players get past the character creation they're certainly not going to want to play a game that's unresponsive.

Jeebus this thread is on fire!  :P
 
Just wanted to quickly pop in during maintenance. Particularly to say that although I know a bunch of people aren't able to enjoy the game right now due to technical stuff, I'm having an absolute blast with this drop and I hope you folks are able to join the fun soon. :D
 
They've added so much goodness to housing... I can't even articulate.
 
My current build, Terra Caelum, is using predominantly new decor from this drop for its main landscape features. The quality is really high for this stuff. They gave us a lot of new rock options, some new plants, and a whole bunch of awesome boardwalk pieces, and all of it feels much more "real" than past items, less generic. Like, there's quite a bit of natural variance on my plot right now. Then add in the water decor— so alive!— the guards, the guests, the osun pieces if you have them, the beautiful skies, fire blazing in the night... Terra Caelum feels way, way more exciting and immersive than anything I've built before.
 
Wildstar feels more exciting and immersive than I've ever felt before...
 
Gonna finish making foods now so I'm ready when the realms are back up. Will post a few screenshots of the new plot soon. Also gonna  put together a big opening event, maybe this weekend before I build the actual inside of the house, and you're all invited! :P
 
LOVE  this drop.

Woke up quite a bit erailer then I wanted to, along with a lack of sleep due to a cough, shoulda gone back to bed after I did the thing I had to wake up for was done but, well, Wildstar. Anyway got some leveling and CX selling done and a bit after the servers come back up I might play though I got some boring stuff to do before then. Still not liking the new challge reward track and the lag, but the latter should fix it's-self after a bit and the former might get some changes but, won't get my hopes up. I'm trying to get my older bro's to play after the lag goes away, though they are kinda busy with jobs and other stuff you get by having a life or whatever people call it.

I'm just focusing on housing with all the issues going on now, and trying to play the market a bit to get golds. I bought some rolls on the Madame RNG store and won a bunch of stuff for $20. Ended up selling several of them and made 20p.
 
Have a whole bunch of items remaining too (dyes, costumes, mount, pet, customizations, guards).
My plan is to buildbuildbuild, then rune and get back into the game once lag is fixed. Then it'll be farming the ever-loving crap out of Adventures for renown and guests, and running through Alpha Sanctum. :D

Yea, you'd probably want to use the melee build. Even ignoring the clumsy IB stacks (just use PF builder and Storm finisher, keep the rest of your LAS), it felt stronger than TKS. Less burst more sustain, and definitely less eating-between-pulls. Time-to-kill has increased, as I had mentioned, but you should still be able to gold shiphands. Well I have no luck with the stupid exploding squirg room in Gauntlet (my best solo effort was 19/20), but that's a different story.
 
Wait, am I reading right? You're saying you solo things with assault abilities but in healing amp build? Ahhh, that is probably the crux of your issue. You may have to spend the elder gem on the 3rd LAS for dps. I use my PVE-heal amp build for PVP, but I'm not that hardcore haha.
 
edit: omg I'm so stupid, I just remember my dominion esper has 3 LAS since a year ago!

C'mon, why are you holding out on us? :P  What are the names of those pieces of armor so I can try to find one too? That outfit would look so stunning in red.

Shame to hear about Grid.  IIRC it had already been abandoned by its creator when I installed it last year.  That bodes ill for it getting fixed.
