Did anyone log the questions we got answered in this chat?

Some of the things mentioned:

More of the magical origins of Praetoria, along with the Carnival of Light, will be addressed in Issue 21.

They "absolutely" plan on reusing old zones (such as Boomtown) for the new storylines.

New lore pet trees are coming before Issue 21 (presumably with the new trials), and include:
- Arachnos
- Carnival of Shadows
- Nemesis

Powerset proliferation for Issue 21 isn't official, but they are trying to get something in there.

Those were most of the major points I can remember. Might be glossing over some stuff, though.

I asked if there would be "Generic" Lore pets and he confirmed that, generic Lore pets in addition to the villain groups.

Issue 21 has a new zone

Issue 22 likely revamping or adding onto old zones

Issue 23, probably maybe like issue 22?


Uhm... what else...

Protean answered a lot of questions with... "Issue 21 includes more information on that", when it came to questions such as:

"Will we ever head out into the wilderness on Praetorian Earth to fight Hami on his own turf?"

and

"When do we see more on the Carnival of Light?"

Muwahaha.

Protean was pretty well guarded about his answers, as he said, he didn't want to be the one to announce anything.

Ah, one other bit from Black Scorpion, 'generic pets' would involve significant additional tech, so it's not likely to be on any sort lists.

[ edit ]
I was wrong, my statement about 'generic pets' applies to customizable pets. There should be generics .

I swear I asked if there would be generic Lore pets and he confirmed there would be. But they wouldn't be customizable. Because customizing pets is still a long ways off.

Ah, that's what he said. Thank for correcting me*takes the AoO *, was in a Lam during the stream.

My mind blurred customized and generic together I think, I blame Acid from suspicion praetorian crates.

Only if your internet and power is out and you want an MMO to play.

Not sure if they're archiving the weeklies, or just the bigger dev chats... or if there's even a difference... but the ones they DO have up can be viewed here.

Usually takes them a day or two to show up.


Where to find me after the end:
The Secret World - Arcadia - Shinzo
Rift - Faeblight - Bloodspeaker
LotRO - Gladden - Aranelion
STO - Holodeck - @Captain_Thiraas

Obviously, I don't care about NCSoft's forum rules, now.

Also, Zwillinger had an awesome shirt. We need to get them to release them for sale for the playerbase. They said it would be a Black Pebble issue. I tried to PM but it wouldn't go through. Probably just me. Anyway, here is my 2 cents for getting those shirts out there!

I asked early on if other backpacks were being developed

David quickly pointed to one of the early questions and Zwill said he couldn't say anything. The only other questions asked wouldn't be NDA types as far as I could tell. Make of that what you will.

Hero: Armor Assassin (scrapper), Cross Dresser (scrapper), Surly Seaman (blaster), Defensive End (Tank), Rad Rhino (Cont)
Villain: Beast Infection (Corr), Sweet Zombie Jesus (MM), Milk Weasel (Stalker), Orgullo (MM), Agent Eris (Crab)

They already said that they want to add more backpacks - there could be one or more in the next booster after the steampunk one.
