* European players will no longer see "???" characters in their chat window when another player types something in Russian. Instead, they will now see the actual Russian characters.

* Quest: Thunder Snow: Now functions correctly.

That's strange, because a guy was talking to me in cyrillic a few days ago and it displayed fine. He was from RUS GANG or something so I don't think he was Bulgarian or a Serb.

And as for the latter, I'm glad it's sorted but I'm sorry it took so long that I've far outlevelled the content now. Oh well.

Plus - gently caress Deepstrike Mines. And Darkening Deeps. And really most of the dungeons, I feel like as I'm levelling I'm doing them much too often and I'm already tired of them. I also feel like they're a lot easier. Perhaps I've just got used to how the experts work?

Is the Defiant storyline a little more evil than the guardians? I want to make a necromancer or a defiler or something evil and nasty but it's kinda hard when you're chilling with a bunch of angels.

The defiants are the true heroes of rift.

You are a magical terminator sent back to prevent the end of the world.

Yeah, you're the first Ascended they manage to get to revive properly with their ~new machines~ and the failsafe device / time machine is smashed by Alternate Future Regulos as soon as you get through.

The Guardians are plenty evil later but that's more the "kill everybody and just pray for the innocent ones" kind of evil. A couple zones in you find out that a friendly npc is aware of his town being full of werewolves but actively protects and hides them because if Sanctum gets involved, they would just burn down the entire city, including the non-werewolves.

How do you explain the fact that I saw multiple ascended from my future make it back to present day? In fact there was a line to kill Regulos, the time machine just fixes itself.

^^ That quest sounds awesome. Coolest Defiant quest is in Stonefield where the defiants Find a magic door and decide to open it because they can control the titan on the other side. The titan smashes the defiant machine and you need to build a thing to kill it. A big part of the defiants is that there's a good chance they'll accidentally destroy the world. Also, Stonefield has the only good escort quest where you have to protect a really lazy courier.

Invite should be waiting for you in mail next time you log on.

There's really no reason to not add your alts to the guild, if you post their names we can mail them invites too.

brevanic portal generator is nice, bag slots, bank vaults, 150% mount at level 60 (instead of spending 1k plat), and umm maybe the 65 hit event rings that are on par with tier 1 raid drops?

As a former WoW/SWTOR/GW2 player, this game intrigues me. I have some dumbass newbie questions though.

I downloaded it through Steam and hit play as guest - and didn't have to create an account. Does this mean the characters I make are linked to my Steam account in a sort of single-sign-on type dealio? Are there any downsides to never making an account?

I realise this is F2P but I know there are also things that are recommended to buy for the basics. Steam has a few DLC packs, and I know there's a bunch of stuff on the in-game store. What's recommended for a new player?

Guilds are server-specific, right? In which case, is there an Oceanic goon guild? Or can I transfer to the server the goon guild is on without cost?

I recommend you play a little, and then if you think you'd play for a while, buy the storm legion souls for 20$, this will give you:
- 4 new souls (trees), one for each class. Two of them are really necessary for leveling Mage and (less so, but still some) rogue. The warrior one is really useful for endgame since it's your only ranged spec, and the cleric's is kinda cool as well.
- Access to the AH (you unlock this by buying at least 5$
- An extra bag slot for all characters
- Extra character slots

It's the best use of money by far!

The guest account is specific to your computer rather than any specific Steam account or anything of the sort, although unless things have changed it's limited to level 10 and lower.

The best purchases are the level 60 mount, bag slots and the Storm Legion souls. None of them are, strictly speaking, necessary for leveling and raiding unless you're a warrior, in which case the Storm Legion souls have your only ranged DPS soul.

Guilds are server specific, but not faction specific on PvE servers. To the best of my knowledge there is no real goon presence on the Oceanic server. Server transfers are free with the only limiting factors being that each character can only transfer once a week and you can't transfer from the EU shards to the US shards or vice versa.

Is it just me or are warriors super unpopular? I wonder what that is, other than the fact that their support soul sucks and nobody likes tanking...
Is their DPS decent at least? I like being a giant dude in plate armor, and since no one plays them at least I'd get tons of plate drops.

But that's it! And as for playing, if you want to raid later on, roll on EU, but if you just want to chat with some goons and do experts, and maybe raid once every full moon, roll US. The ping is a non issue.

if anyone wants to watch us progress and (hopefully) kill one of the harder bosses in the game right now (volan) we'll be streaming at http://twitch.tv/mimseh around 5:30pm server time (us). it's an extremely tough fight and we got him down to 19% last night after roughly 3 nights (12 hours give or take) of progression, so we're throwing in an extra raid day this week to hopefully get a kill.
