Dungeon Chase is here, and we want to get in on the action! So sharpen your weapons and come take down ugly bosses with us in some Dungeon runnin’ fun!On Friday, February 12 from 7:00pm to 9:00pm GMT on EU server Jabbit, and 5:00pm to 7:00pm PST on NA server Entity, members of the WildStar development team will be queuing for Dungeons.How’s this gonna work? Glad you asked! First, you must be at least level 10 to run Dungeons. Second, we’re not using the Dungeon queue system, so you’ll need to find us. We’ll be forming groups in the capital cities, Illium (for Dominion) and Thayd (for Exiles), and you’ll know who we are, because our names will begin with “Carbine.”Watch for us to call out in our capital city’s zone chat, things like:
“Join on me for Protogames Academy. I’m new, but let’s do this!”“Join on me for Stormtalon’s Lair, or you’ll lose your hair!”
 
Most of us will be queuing for easier content on Normal, while some of us may queue for Veteran Dungeons to satiate the appetites of Veteran players, and we’ll specify we’re queuing for Veteran in zone chat, with something like:
“Join on me for Veteran Skullcano!” 
Just join up with the Dev who is headed into a Dungeon that appeals to you, and away you go!When a Dev’s group is full, we’ll queue for the dungeon we called out, and enjoy some much appreciated time with you. Upon completion we’ll grab a new crew, and spelunk our way through another, helping you to nab as much Small Game Scrap as your bags can hold.“Small Game Scrap?” What’s that?! Read more about it in our Dungeon Chase article, but the gist is that all level-appropriate Dungeons will award you Small Game Scrap that can be traded with your pals, sold on the auction house, or converted into Big Game Bucks by Exchanger Gigax so you can buy some cool stuff from her partner, Collector Davarn.Even if you’ve never played WildStar before, there’s still time to level up and get in on the fun! You can play for free by clicking here.

Speaking for the EU side:
 
This was extremely fun!

Succeeded in getting TT killed	had great chats with the people from Carbine!
Please do more of these!
 
Oh, and our biggest #nounderpants supporter ! TimeTravel:

			Do devs have interrupts on their bar, Oli? Is their gear runed? :lol:

For me worst event ever. Carbine Dev queued as tank, without any knowledge about dung strat, without any question from him about strat, so I qualify that as a n00b behaviour (don't confuse with newbie). Simply without me and my friend with 120 gear, we would never finish - literally.
 
Don't get me wrong. I really like whole idea of devs joining normal gameplay with players. I would even say this type of events should be way more regular and used to collect feedback (to some extend). Besides it is usually good for publicity. However when I run dung and spend there almost 40 mins instead of 15-25 and all because carbine employees didn't have time to explain strats to each other day ealier (and did not take effort to ask before wipe).
I just wish next event will be more prepared, cuz same was with previous PvP event - group with more devs was loosing (similar to group with more bots in December). If you don't want to allocate working hours into learning gameplay to employees that don't know game enough, just make sure to take only those that know it (you have 4 servers do 4 events instead of 1) or make sure you are not "forcing" whole population to join event by making premade groups.

Venus Rising had so much fun running with the devs last night! We got to carry Downtown twice on air. I ran around as my esper so he could heal (although we didn't really need it! xD) and hopefully provided a smooth-ish carry for him while he was answering questions on air. ^_^
 
We even had a run with TimeTravel in Kel Voreth and invited him to come chill with us in our teamspeak- which he did! I was too starstruck to try to pry information out of him, but Gole did an alright job without being too pouncy! xD Apparently the new raids are going to have brand new stuff we've never seen before...how cool is that?! I can't contain my hype about doing a dungeon with my (our) favourite Carbine Dev...! 
 
 - Me since last night!

			All of these events happen when I decide to go home for the weekend and visit the girlfriend. I'll have my priorities straightened out next time though and be here for sure.

			Quite a fun little idea here. Should do these types of events more often.

I know the livestreams isn't the most popular part of Wildstar. But I think it would be more popular if you have people on that actually know something. When you have a Q&A with the members and the players, at least have someone there that actually know about the game. Having to listen to the host not knowing things is kind of silly and not really good PR. I sadly had to close the stream because I couldn't be bothered listening to "nothing".
 
I hope you can look into that and improve it for future streams.
 
As for the event, more of this. I know the community wants more dev interaction.
