Not much since it's pretty much a shooter.

I still have the shotgun project slotted, I think I'll go for that instead.

They should just offer another one of those since it's so great.

Well you can accidentally bind your spacebar.txt macro on a ground map and lose your ability to jump until you get that sorted. Beyond that there's not much to do combat wise. You can do some fancy shortcut keys though.

The auth server appears to be hosed at the moment.

Aparently someone is DDOSing the servers again. They must have not gotten a lockbox ship with the 600 keys they used.

Servers are back up, Risa has been clensed with holy fire.

The Neverwinter guy who DDoS attacked PWE last month is active on twitter again after about a month of dormancy, so I'm guessing it's probably him again.

Edit: Yep, here he is on another account - https://twitter.com/PacketArmy

He's been doing this off and on for a couple months now, so I doubt he's that dumb. I don't mind him; he gets the pubbies riled up and the "Dental puppetmaster" rumors will continue to spread.
