  1. Happy Birthday, Sir!

  2. Where's the rest of it?

    Stopping like that isn't very nice.

    Oh wait, you said that you're not a nice person...
  3. We used to have regularly scheduled raids: one group was hosting hero side raids on Friday evening/night, another group was hosting raids (alternating weekly between hero/villain side) on Saturday afternoon/evening.

    Since the raid only provides shards (and not threads/components), the interest in doing them has dwindled in favor of the incarnate trials (BAF, Lambda, Keyes).

    If I recall correctly, there is one scheduled for next week Saturday as part of the "Vigilance" events.

    This is my take on the subject.

    A roundhouse kick from Chuck?! I'd be honored!

    Also, the lag and now this "abundant amount of pets" is just rubbing me the wrong way. I did a Shard run this weekend and got 100 shard and crafted barely 12 slots(migrations).
    Yes. What's your question?

    We understand that not everyone can be there that night, but we have a very serious goal to test some server improvements; so here's what we are doing:

    We have a goal of exceeding our highest ever peak concurrent users on a single server, which is 3500 players. But we might not be able to make that, so we will at least settle for 2500. If we get 2500 concurrent players on the Freedom server on May 27th between the hours of 4PM and 7PM Pacific, we will leave the badge on for the rest of the holiday weekend (May 27th through May 30th) on *ALL* European and North American servers.
    Time zone conversions
    4-7 PM Pacific
    5-8 PM Mountain
    6-9 PM Central
    7-10 PM Eastern
    8-11 PM Atlantic - you know who you are!
  11. Ok, I see where you're coming from.

    I thought there was a follow up post from a Redname that either...
    a) contradicted the original post (the one from Zwillinger that you referenced earlier), or
    b) contained wording that led to ambiguity.

    Thanks for the clarification.

    Why do you say this?

    I don't remember seeing anything about this, would those (targetted AoE) buffs also buff the caster if he's in range of the target?

    EDIT: Never mind, I see it now. The answer is no.

    Point of interest: There are many zones that have caps significantly higher than 50 players. If my memory serves me correctly, there are only three zones that cap at 50: The Hive, The Abyss, and The RWZ.
