Good Morning Everyone!
 
This is how I felt this morning upon waking:
 
Now I feel better after 2 cups of coffee and a very good breakfast of Capt Crunch and milk :P
 
Yesterday in WildStar, I started re-doing Spouse's house. Put clear windows in my treebar and they look great! I also re-did my deck and took down the second story deck. Thinking of taking out the man-made swamp area and putting in a sauna area. Still thinking on that one. I still want to put a second story deck on, but I don't want it as big as it was before.
 
I am still thinking of what I want to do with Yalanna's hatch house and lot. I know I will be building a top house, just don't know the style or size yet.
 
So what kind of works in progress do you all have going on?
 
Have a great day and a wonderful weekend!

Good morning, TGIF.
 
I'm trying to come up with a way to make a mecha corgi on my housing plot. I don't think it's possible, but I will try.	
----
			
Day is starting good. One of the first thing was to beat Anlath !
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
to it...  :lol:

YAY for Friday!!

Still fighting with my housing. 
Datascape lighting is great for my mordesh.
 
But not for the stuff other than me in my house.
So I re-did stuff
 
 
 
And redid more stuff
 
 
 
And I still didn't like it. So I asked my wife
She said use the red lighting to make the fire look good
 
 
 
So I did, and the place looks better. My mordesh on the other hand is not as vibrant looking. Oh well.

Mmmm coffee...
 
Last night was my penultimate run of SW/Ely/Tree/HotS.  Maybe I was placing myself better or maybe they fixed a bunch of things wrong with Scorch but I was doing ok until the wing-buffet phase.  That's still overtuned (5k+ ticks).  Regardless... less than 1200 rep points to go.  :wub:   On this character.  Guess I'll need to start the grind all over on the esper alt :(
 
Not sure what I'll be up to tonight.  If a group forms early enough I might go for my final GoG run.  Considering volunteering as fodder for the warplot runs sponsored Exile side by Potential Intensity and Lords of the Dead.  And it's Science Night so that's an option.  Weekend plan is to see if I can get the esper alt to 50 and the medic alt from 8 to 15.
 
Housing wise I want to swap out my basic exile house for a hatch house but that means ripping out all the stuff I've built around the house.  Aaaaand I might replace it all with the new decking anyway.  So... it's a project.

So yeah, I've been waiting for the housing updates in Drop 4 since...well you know how long and now that it's here and all my housing dreams are coming true, I'm scared to start because
 
 
once I start I'm never going to stop! :D	
----
			
So, I finally freed up out of that meeting.  Work is a bit boring; I'm doing work on a new project to fill the hours.  Wildstar is brutalizing me.  Because, you see... I'm an architectural designer in real life.  And if you're in the field already, your housing plot work in Wildstar gets intensive.
 
Case in point, I finally "finished" the forecastle last night.  It was perfectly functional.  It was how the last one was.  However, it's a very large, blank, long-running wall.  In most cases, you just put stuff on them and it makes it work.  Not if you're in architecture yourself, where I instantly started trying to figure out ways to mirror the huge housing plug opposite the forecastle wall, how to break it up without looking ridiculous, how to provide access to the trauma bay that isn't just a hole in the wall.
 
I was so agitated by how to reflect the spacious exile housing plug (not to mention integrating it, since I felt like it was just a stand-alone piece that didn't feel like part of the ship anymore) that I literally decided to just turn it into a hatch plug.  Now I have a lot more space to fill and a lot more volume I need.  But yeah, WORTH IT, because of some design choices I doubt anyone actually cares about...  This game's housing is like a heroin addiction for me.
 
Anyway, things I accomplished last night:
 
-Mostly refinished the forecastle.  I still have to break up the plane a lot.
 
-Completely refitted the trauma bay with new dividers and a walk-down ramp.
 
-Re-arranged the loading bay for the new scale.
 
-Changed the house plug to a hatch to build a bilge.
 
-Refitted a new stage.  After talking to Dreiden, I've decided to get a bit more of a pirate theme going in the bar.  There will be more interiors work needed there, but I did fit a new stage and clad the bar with wood paneling.
 
-Aligned the decks and hopefully have finally set the final deck locations.
 
Things to hopefully accomplish tonight:
 
-Resolve the join condition between the previously existing decks and the new lowered waist, especially the hatch plug
 
-Resolve the expanse where the housing plug used to be (probably by deciding on how I'll represent the new main mast)
 
-Resolve the join condition at the walls
 
-Alter the drop-pod bay so it fits with the new layout, decide what to do with the extra space allotted near teleport control.
 
-Finish placing all decks and deck-facing walls.
 
I'll do furnishings and circulation later, hopefully.  I'm wondering if I should take a break from housing for a night to run content, hit up a vet shiphand, do SOMETHING that isn't fretting about the damn house.  And yet, it's all I'm thinking about and all I want to do.  It's a torturous existence, this one.
 
I'll see you all on Nexus.... if you come to visit...

			Vic if this one is anything like the old one, it will be fantastic!!

VR's dead classy, yo. Wine cabinet! :D
 
As for ingame life, got an RP event this evening. I'm kind of excited for it. Zarla, a potential RP officer has organized it. And I've not RP'd in a long time. :) I'll hide ingame all weekend after the day I've had today lol.

I need one too  :( !
 
Today's been awful... I'm trying to attune my second character, and it's been days of trying to get Malgrave trail silver...
 
I hate people quitting at the first death of a caravan member. It's always the tank.
Today 3 times in a row, I'm not kidding, I got the very same tank each time. He starts by saying to follow his tips, then at the very first death of a caravan member he leaves, and from there people loose hope and give up, start leaving. The guy explains stuff very badly, i try to help by giving directions to people who have not understood and try to gather as much as I can, while *HE* chills out at the caravan, killing the few mobs that come and doesn't do much to help gather.
 
3 times in a row, as a DPS my queue was long, and 3 times this gold-or-bust DIVA tank shows up, confuses the members, doesn't help much and quit...
 
But the most sad, is the fourth time I did it today... He wasn't there (thank Drusera !) but EACH AND EVERY MEMBER of the group didn't know how to use the chat. I was the only one to talk, explain things, ask people if they had understood (gather food, gather water, gather grain) and NO ANSWER...
They only were staying at the caravan, fighting the monsters, and not answering my questions or calls, and before even reaching the first spot after departure we were already down to 5 caravan members... Already lost 25 when we reached the first event after departure...
 
This time, and it's what makes me very sad : I deserted... I never do, I never quit a dungeon or an adventure, but I couldn't stay any longer : "guys ? someone answer me ? guys ? we need food and water, not only fight the monsters at the caravan, guys ?". Oh well...

			So Vic,  have to ask, is your ship like a.... warplot, that moves with sails? o.O	
----
			
{| class="blockquote"
Ouch, yeah.  One of the reasons I don't random queue unless it's absolutely necessary.
----
			Oh and because I don't feel like starting a new thread about it, and surely someone in the coffee thread will know, where can we find the intractable costume ?
