The January WSTs were mentioned somewhere. I know that the January 3rd WST is the ITF. Let me see if I can dig it up, since the official post in Announcements isn't updated.
EDIT: Sorry, I really can't remember where I saw it, but it doesn't seem to be on the board yet.

Geez Redside needs new SF's badly.
Looking over the list Ice Mistral comes up 4 times in 2 months.
Isn't that kind of ridiculous?

In fact, other than the ITF January is a straight-up repeat of the weeks of November 29th through December 20th. The only difference is the respec trial is a different level bracket. Weird.

As far as respecs on the WST go, I don't know if it's possible but I would like to see them consolidated. That is, rather than having "24-34 Respec" it would just have "Respec Trial" and you can do any level range to count for it.
I understand that the lead up missions are technically different each time, but the meat of the trial is always the same, and having it come up so often is kinda killing motivation for a lot of people.
Considering we're coming up to a full year since the WST mechanic was introduced, and respecs have been on the list for 9 of those 12 months, I just think more variety would keep people a bit more interested.

With the DA revamp coming, I think I'll take the slower path just for a change of pace.

Yes, I raised an eyebrow at that as well.

I'm actually kind of sad after looking at this list. Not at the repeats, but the fact that we're not going to be getting the Statesman TF for a WST one last time before he bites it. 
Am I the only one?

Spotted that as well. These are all great TFs / Trials, but was kinda hoping that they'd have rotated a few of the other targets in for next month.

Yes, that would have been nice - was kind of hoping for that as well. Oh well, can still run them anyway.

He was introduced in a post by Avatea in June, 2011. I've seen several of his posts, many of which have been in the French forums with a few posts in the English sections and Beta sections as well.|

Most of what I've seen of his posts of late has been in either the Thank Goodness It's Mission Architect Thursday! threads or in the Creative Caption Craziness and Tell A Story contest threads.
Since Avatea has departed the studio, I suspect we'll see him taking over more duties such as the City of Comics Creators thread, updates to the Weeky Strike Targets threads and more.
If the game spit out 20 dollar bills people would complain that they weren't sequentially numbered. If they were sequentially numbered people would complain that they weren't random enough.
Black Pebble is my new hero.
I thought about starting a new thread, but I'll use this one . . .
I rarely complain about stuff, but the choices for the WSF have stunk for the last several months. We haven't had the Statesman's TF as the WST since Oct. 25-31. The Kahn hasn't been the WST since the week before that. And Lady Grey was the WST last on August 16-22.
I don't mind a mix of high level and low level stuff. But the Respec trial is boring as hell Blue side. All that time just waiting for spawns. The Eden Trial has pitiful rewards just because a few people figured out how to run it super fast (but I'm not familiar enough with it to do that). And Numina is pretty frustrating with all those stupid low-level hunts that accomplish nothing other than chewing up time -- it is not exactly a challenge for a level 35-40 character to wipe out Clocks in Atlas or Warriors in Talos.
Once in a while, I don't mind doing some of the Respecs or Numina or Manticore, as long as I get a decent mix of Statesman, Lady Grey and Kahn. But we don't. January's list does finally add in the ITF (YEAH!), but the rest of the month is an almost exact copy of December.
Can't we have an even mix of low level and high level stuff??

Minor thread necro I know but has anyone seen what the WST are going to be for February? Do we need to pester a redname to put up a post about em?
Paragon wiki has something that suggests it's the lvl 33-44 respec this week (Feb 7-13), but I haven't seen the main WST schedule sticky post updated as of this reply. What up, devs?

It was in a newsletter. I didn't receive this newsletter so cannot confirm, though multiple people in the thread said it. I can no longer find the thread that mentioned it.|

I'd like to poke the mods to think about getting the WST list for January up today or tomorrow since the first business day next week happens to be the first Tuesday in January.
Wouldn't want the list to get updated after it goes live that morning after all!
Please?
