Gate Crashing Thayd!

I know, I know, I'm a Dommie so what the heck was I doing in Thayd?

The answer to that is, quite simply, while running round Blighthaven, I happened to notice my guild chat asking if anyone wanted to join them on a mission. After realising that my guild (or members of) had managed to get into Thayd and not be killed instantly by the guards, I decided to join them. What then followed was a crazy, mad run through Thayd and, when we died through Galeras, taking part in PvP battles and general silliness. Seriously, not sure what I'd think if a group of about ten Exiles ran into the centre of Illium and started dancing, yet that is what we ended up doing in Thayd. Gotta admit it was a while mess of crazy fun XD Also, Illium > Thayd any day of the week XD

Had a fun charge around Blighthaven too. Only just started in this area, but I'm thankful there's new content already. I can see the dailies becoming very boring very quickly lol.

I did rather enjoy the quest where I got to be a holographic deer complete with hoof sounding deer noises (simple things). Not to mention said holographic deer was called Lightning. It was clearly meant to be XD I also found out that once in the holographic deer form, you could actually go quite far as it. Always more fun to run round as a deer rather than yourself XD

That's pretty much all I did today. Pratting around in Thayd took up a good portion of the day. Totally worth it though. I'm all up for random craziness like that :D

Go Wild, be a Star!!!

This song. Just this song.

I was playing this going to work this morning. I LOVE the video, it's so well done, and the song is awesome. Huge kudos to the guys that did it.

And my favourite bit?

'Descendants of the Eldan race

Cassian 

Mechari

Gone for a thousand years but now they'll build an army'

Because you all wish you were Cassian too ^_~

Pimp Chua

Seriously, what am I looking at here????

*cries* Why won't you let me play???

Urgh, so I'm once again kicked out of my game :P

I got back in after my earlier issues and promptly teleported from the lab to do some other quests in the area, but obviously I have to return at some point. Went back in, finished off some stuff, but now I'm once again waiting to get back in.

Away from that for the minute, I have to say that this area is damn hard. LOTS of elite mobs in the area and the regular mobs pack a punch. Loads of quests are requesting 5+ groups to do which at the moment I just don't have. Might have to ask my guild for some help with them. I feel this area is rather difficult for your regular player. Maybe it's because I'm spellslinger and they aren't the tankiest role that I'm having issues, but I am dying a LOT.

Not much to report on today aside from my issues with this lab. I'm level 48 and so close to 50 I can taste it. Really wanted to reach it tonight, but this lab doesn't seem to want to let me. I do keep getting calls from my home-girl Drusera about various bits and pieces. And i ran into this little joy.

See the green and red caretaker? One always lies and the other always tells the truth. Ever seen the movie the Labyrinth? Yeah, it's basically that scene with Sarah and the doors, only this was Lyghtning and the consoles that had to be turned on in a certain order from the instructions they give you. The achievement I felt at cracking it was immense. Even if I was ready to punch them both by the end.

Also did a quest to grab some eggs from a ship wreckage and that was an acrobatic feat worthy of cirque du soleil. See that green water? Yeah you go in that you die pretty much. So I had Lyghtning leaping about, using her Wall ability to make jumps I was missing, nearly overshooting some leaps, all to grab some eggs for a blasted Chua.

And in my lab, aside from the crashes, i have the following bugs. See that floating console. See it? I'm supposed to activate that. HOW? It's above me. Even on Rexy I can't reach.

And this happened while I was running. both Lyghtning and Rexy fell into this blue void. We fell for a bit and then died. Fun times to be had in this lab.

I fail so bad XD

So i got maybe forty minutes into the game before having my first major fail. Aside from the fact that i didn't see my first quest and ended up running (once i worked out how) all over my Dominion ship wondering what to do before going back to the start and following the quests, i also couldn't find my inventory. So i found some quest whereby you get a weapon from a Chua and are told to kill some monsters. This would have been fine had someone told me where the hell my inventory was. I ran round his little workshop for nearly fifteen-twenty minutes trying to find the weapon he gave me. I saw people run in, weapons appear on them and then run out again while Lyghtning played a fun game of how many times can i sit on a bench. It was frustrating.
I did finally find the damn inventory, bottom right hand corner of the screen for anyone else having issues, got my weapon and got started. But man that nearly killed me. I was getting so angry as i kept getting told 'weapon in inventory' and i was screaming at my computer 'WHERE THE FUCK IS THE INVENTORY YOU RETARDED HAMSTER!!!!!' Needless to say he didn't respond, but i felt if i was going to role play with this character i might as well get in the spirit lol.
Oh i'm also on Lightspire :)
