Oh yeah... coffee.... 
 
Last night was great!  I didn't get to log in much over the weekend, but when I did, it was insane.  I started putting up a kind of "marketplace" in the waist of the Shadowcaster.  I'm running out of decor space.  I'll snap some pictures later.  But the Shadowcaster is really coming along.  I was 0-15 on getting medical stations this week, but thanks Qaestri for getting us some more decor that I put into the ship!  I have to be careful how I continue now, though.  I'm up into around the 950/1000 range.
 
Also, Rock Salt and I ran the Lightspire raid event with a half a Dommy raid and half an Exile raid.  And that...was...AWESOME!
 
It was complete and total chaos.  I actually felt like Seeger was on a battlefield, hacking and slashing at anything anywhere.  Like a giant, moving LOTR cinematic battle with lasers and nuclear powered swords!  I'm totally going to put together a Lightspire Siege RP event at some point.  That'd be absolutely amazing!
 
I got pics of that but forgot to upload them.  I'll have them up tonight.  What was your weekend like?

Saturday was great - it was Dungeon Day for the Daggers, so we did probably about 12 or so dungeon/adventure runs during the course of the day.  So much fun.  Lots of people got to see things for the first time, lots of people got some upgrades, guild got lots of influence - happy times.  Along the way I even snuck in finishing Omnicore-1 for the first time myself.
 
It technically happened on Thursday but I managed to get to 12/12 Technophile on Nephele's DPS armor, so I filled out the rest of her rune slots with basic gear and now she's sitting over 2300 AP.  I'd like to push that a bit higher, but that'll come with time I think.  The Technophile bonus was doing some pretty spectacular things to Target Acquisition and Electrocute though.  The tank set I still have a lot of work to do with but it'll get there eventually.
 
Yesterday we tried to hit vet STL again, but had some issues - a couple of our folks were just really off their game for some reason and it hurt.  But we'll do better next time we go.
 
The other thing I did yesterday?  I got the turkey out to thaw for Thursday.  Aww yeah.
 
Anyway, work today, at least the first part of it.  Gotta talk to the guys in the UK in about 40 minutes, so trying to get enough coffee in me to be intelligible before then.

My in-game event is officially up an running after spending all weekend planning  :)
 
Think i drank so much coffee I was bouncing off the walls!!

*staggers in* ooh coffee! gimme!
 
An RP version of SoL sounds neat :lol:  Somebody posted into the WSRP channel the wacky idea of getting an RP GA run put together.
 
- Killed Pyralos (thanks Tikari!)
- Capped EG for the week
- Capped Exile rep without having to hit Celestion (the lowbie area I didn't do).
- Got the achievements for Zoetic and MetalMaw Prime (think that puts me at 4 or 5).
- Did Seige of the Lightspire once, Tree once, Elonya once, Scorch twice and R-12 twice.
- Otherwise played barfly
 
I really need to find a better nameplate config for mixed faction efforts.
 
Tried to do the OC-1 weekly on Saturday night... Got the end boss down to the last phase in DPS skin but ran out of hit points before it did (Sooo close too.)  Better gear, more familiar with the fight.  Decided to switch to tank skin just to get it over with and Entity burped which punted me back to the beginning :(.  Didn't feel like sinking another 40 minutes into it and gave up on it for the night.
 
The Tree group I was part of went intentionally bronze.  It looks like if you let things go purple the event becomes trivially easy.  What's the advantage of doing a gold run?  Do you get more rep?
 
Plans for tonight: Sit down and figure out what kind of runes to slot.  Since I was shopping more for cost than optimal slots this ought to be 'fun'.  Going to see if I can get another set of R-12 and Lightspire runs done.  Scorch, Elonya, and Tree if the opportunity presents itself.  I should give OC-1 another go.
 
At some point I need to do the attunement related Vet. Adventures.
 
Last year we outsourced Thanksgiving to Honeybaked Ham (they also sell turkeys) which worked out great.  We'll probably dial back on the side dishes but plan to do the same thing this year.

Gonna whine. My youngest got sick yesterday, and I spent the night on the couch trying to keep him from screaming all night (rather unsuccessfully I might add). Finally, at 7am, he passed out. I closed my eyes and just as I'm about to hit dreamland, my 3 year old came in to tell me it was "a SUNNY DAY" and it was time to get up. UGH. So I am definitely feeling like chaos is reigning right now!
 
Yesterday in game, before the night time antics, I did manage to get another epochs recipe crafted (I just got 50 on my outfitter last week) and get through Omni-Core 1 for the first time. I only got a silver, cuz I had to AFK alot and I died a few times, but I enjoyed the dungeon  :)
 
Today's in-game plans depend on what the daily buff is. If it's 10% to questing, I will continue to level my stalker, trying to get to 40 (yay t4 house plugs and faster mounts!). If not, I'll be on my main attempting to farm more leather (seriously, outfitter is an absolute drag with the constant farming!) and hopefully get a run thru daily quests for some faction so I can start my attunement!
 
I'm not doing a turkey this year for the first time in 5 years, so it'll be a nice relaxed day for me! I'll be supplying sides and dessert for our dinner at a friends house, and plan on spending most of the day with a half-empty glass of wine in my hand. ^_^

Saturday afternoon and evening was straight vet Malgrave, with a partial guild group (PUG tank and 1 DPS). Just couldn't get our hands on a Silver. Sunday afternoon got Silver on out first time out with 28/30. One guy wandered off and died but no idea what happened to the other. We followed the Malgrave with a Silver on Tempest. Two more guildies past vet adventures. 
 
I finally got around to Omnicore1, got both the first run thru and the weekly. Also maxed EG on both my toons, which is good since my new tank still needs her Genesis Key. 
 
Regarding bronze Tree, i think you get the same rep just not as good of drop.

Oh Hi!
Chua been neglecting topics little bit, is sorry!
Chua so busy with raiding that often forget to take time for forum topics.
Just now Chua killed together with Alliance Phage Maw again:
 
 
WildStar proving some troubling time at moment with guild. Many Humans suffering from disconnects during raid on Jabbit. Really really make raiding hard!
But Chua preserving! Chua more or less able to kill up to Phage Maw now without trouble.
