    I will be playing a bard. Is there any set of races we should be aiming to use? I don't know if we need to be specific races in the beginning soo we can all group at the early levels

    Guess I'll do something I rarely do and make a gnome or dorf...just need to decide on either ROG or WAR...or maybe WIZ. One of the purity classes for sure though. I'll be named Venjenz.

    Nevermind!  I found the link for the launch. :)

    Now, I just wonder if they will bring it up sooner to avoid smashing the servers :)

    Here's a couple of questions for those rolling chars on Phinny.

     

    Who wants to form the guild and start inviting?  Someone who is able to be online when they server comes up and wants to recieve tells from folks as they log in :)  Volunteers?

     

    At what level do you all think it is best to start actually forming up into groups or 2, 3, or more?

     

    Here are the known names which we are trying to get tomorrow.  If I missed someone, please post below. 

    Bloodbeard

    Venjenz

    Anasyn

    Pyye

    BloodBeard, I'll be making a WAR to your CLR, and since we are apparently making Freeport/Faydwer based toons, I'll be either a dorf, gnome or high elf and will come find you, sooner than later. Level 4-5 is about where "anyone can solo" ends, and we'll need to be paired up to make a go of things. Check your messages, btw. :)

  • December 8, 2015 9:57 AM PST

    Works for me.  Replied to your message :)

  • December 8, 2015 10:00 AM PST

    Noobiedoo, Filzin, Hieromonk, Dreconic, Zlambit -  please post your hopeful game names so we can all add to our friends list.

     

    Is anyone else in for this?

    FYI for anyone who may not have seen this on the daybreak forums - 

     

    From Roshen -

    "This will prevent players from creating new characters of these race/class combos or using a Transmogrification Scroll to become these race/class combos until Luclin unlocks on these servers."

     

    Those race/class combos are  Gnome Shadowknight, Gnome Paladin, Halfling Ranger,  Halfling Paladin

    Heiromonk - if you go the necro route, consider the dark elf path that BloodBeard and I will start on. Ultravision, coolest city, favored children of Innoruuk? C'mon...you know you want to....

    Naah.. I can't play a darky.

    Plus, Human Necros do not need ultravision, I have cold stone and lich form. And do not feel too bad, Freeport is but one zone difference.

    True, and the bottom line is, everyone has guards and wanderers they have to avoid somewhere. I like Freeport/Neriak for the whole Sol A, Najena, Befallen access, plus the EC tunnel. =)

    EDIT - and FYI to everyone, BloodBeard and I settled on dark elves. Easiest WAR-CLR pair with immediate access to Eastern Antonica.

    Commonlands area is a good springboard for lvl 10+. (Soulbinder in Tunnel)

    Don't forget, everyone gets /origin (gate to starting point)  after lvl 10?
  • December 8, 2015 1:37 PM PST

    Truly, it is not difficult to meet up once reaching level 5 or so.  Qeynos - Odus being the most difficult.

    I am aiming for Noobie Doo not sure which race yet though but I will find something in that area. I can try and get the guild started up I just have to remember how to go about it. It's been a LONG while since I created Celestial Juggernaughts. :D I really miss that guild, had litterally 20 real life friends in that guild. Raiding with that many RL friends is awesome!

    Too bad it does not go live until 2PM PST...  I had the whole day today off!!  Also, am I the only one rolling a toon on Butcherblock side?

    I'll give it a whirl for old time's sake but not sure how much time I will be able to dedicate. Count me in for a Pantheon guild. I'll be creating an Erudite Wizard named Gemdiver and will be aiming to head over to Freeport area as soon as I feel brave enough to do the journey. Looking forward to being the guild taxi! 

     

    --> Edit: If anyone else is rolling in Odus/Qeynos and wants to try and sync up the journey across, let me know.

    I made it in and got my name (Venjenz) reserved, but I have dayjob type work to do tonight, so real life gets my online time tonight. I am in though, all set to go. Either post here, send me mail in game on Phinigel, or whatever, and I'll be around to play tanky tank.
