Rogues are definitely not overpowered, i should know, i play one. :P

Haven't played one, so I don't know how it compares. I only play my Control Wizard. That said, the level of complaints I've seen on the forums and in the game about Rogues is similar to what I've seen in other MMOs at launch right before a class gets hit with the nerf bat.

So... duck?

On a not-really-related note, do you get Glory for every PvP match? The reason I ask is that, in 2 of the 3 matches I've done, the reward I get is just equipment. Only once (when I was on a losing team) did it explicitly list Glory as a reward.

And, for the record, my Rogue never ever uses Stealth. This old-school button-smasher can only keep track of so many buttons to smash. But I will say that I quickly switched from Cleric to Rogue as my main because I was tired of dying so easily.

The guild kind of started spontaneously a couple of weekends ago. It's called Stonewall Guardians. I honestly can't remember what shard we're on, but since they're merging them all soon, we didn't think it was a big deal which one we were on.

I have only played Cleric and wizard so far to level 32 and 6 respectively so cant really comment on how op or not anybody is (except wizard appears to be rubbish in PvE) but the thing I'd like to know is; When did we have a guild there? Where is it? I'm on Mindflayer by the way.

JOINED

Aden and walked toward the medical facility. I had arranged for him to observe and assist if needed. It was a very quiet, solemn walk. Neither of us was over nervous but there was a tinge of it in the air. After all I could be dead in a few hours. We entered medical and I went to prepare in the next room. I 'forced' Aden to go with me as I was starting to become a little anxious. We entered the private chamber and I began to disrobe. As soon as my ass was bared Aden pinched one cheek and then slapped the opposite. I turned to face him he could clearly see that I was nervous. He grabbed me and pulled me to him. We stayed in the warm embrace for what seemed like an hour but really was two minutes. We separated and I sat down on the gurney. Aden covered me with a thin blanket and hit me with a knock-out hypo. I was immediately out.

"He's out" Aden stated after tapping his communicator. He touched a panel on the gurney and it began to move with the slightest touch towards the doors. "They are both ready" Stated the Doctor.

"Aden would you like to make the incision?" Asked the Doctor.

"No I will monitor vitals and adjust as needed. I prefer not to cut into him." Stated Aden.

The incision was made and the join process started...

When I woke up the room was lit softly my vision slightly blurred but I recognized my surroundings. I was in my quarters. I felt pretty good for the most part so I tried to sit up. As I was sitting up I felt a little discomfort and then I started to see images and had new thoughts. This was going to take some getting used to. I would meet the Guardian soon and then we could finish this process. Aden entered the chamber dressed in his night attire and motioned for me to lie back down. He had brought with him a steaming mug of something and had a book in his hand. He loved to read. We once took a quick holo trip back to 20th Century earth and visited a market. He was fascinated by all the labels and contents of the various packages on the shelves. I was more interested in the old fashioned way they used to cool or heat food or buildings so always found my way to the engineering section of the market. He had said he knew how bored this made me and to go off and find engineering and enjoy myself with all the relics here as he was doing. That was the first time I realized my attraction to him.

Yeah, you're not the only person I've heard complain about Rogues being overpowered and the drastic imbalance between PvP and PvE experience and gear. However, I have faith they'll fix it eventually. I think Cryptic is taking it's time collecting data and determining the best course of action before they apply the next module, which seems like it might be time they'll apply these nerf bats and exploit fixes.

The use of 4th Edition rules confirms the belief of a friend of mine, which is that 4th Edition rules are built more for an MMO than for table-top. :P

Date... What is this strange concept? I always thought such a social construct was a myth of the gay community.

So! The bonfires were supposed to be in game until May 16 (according to what was allegedly a typo in the last game update) but Anet took them out and people didn't get to snag that last achievement.

Graceful move by Anet, they are putting the bonfires back in (soon).

For the digs, go here:

A darling dev lays it right out for you in that post. The bonfires WILL be back and they'll be up until May 28 (pending any "typos")

My concern is that I think that PvP experience exceeds PvE experience by a game imbalancing amount. To the tune of 40% or so, in fact I also am annoyed that PvP gear is better than PvE gear and it has no stat restricting its use in PvE (for those keeping score, games usually fix this by incorporating a PvP stat into PvP gear to make it less effective in PvE).

Mob mixes in zone ending dungeons, while interesting, include too many different interrupts from too many different classes of critter. Making fights painful.

Trickster Rogues are overpowered and likely to be the first class to get the nerf bat. The class may attack out of stealth and remain in stealth...and are almost invincible in resisting the control of Control Wizards in PvP, and Guardian Fighters have an unbalancing amount of mitigation in PvP situations.

The game and setting are beautiful but serious attempts at game balance are needed or the game will quickly run out of control and while the open beta is a solid success, a considerable amount of exploit fixing is needed (AFK'ers in PvP, as noted by ChemKarate I consider an exploit, double eligibility for boss rewards is an oversight, although best I can tell this one is sporadic rather than pervasive but still needs to be plugged).

The adherence to the new Fourth Edition rules is a plus. All in all, a solid game that just needs to be fine tuned.

What I always wish, more than anything, is that I could take a secret video camera with me on the rare occasions I go out with a guy, so someone who knows what they're doing can point out where I'm screwing up.

Hah! This is amazing. I just imagine you whipping out a camera at the beginning of the date. Explaining, "This? No, it's not a kink thing. I'm just cataloging my dating experiences for future research."

Kinda reminds me of the movie "Weekend" (it is so good and on netflix. not trashy. well acted and written. highly recommend it. made me feel all lovey and a little sad but in a good way)

Due to time conflicts, terradome will be hosted from 6:30pm-8pm (PST) (may 15) instead of time posted in the calendar.
I apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.

See you all in game!!!

So far, this is the only game where I've actually enjoyed PvP enough to do it multiple times. The fact that you can get equipment to use in PvE and the astral diamond incentive got me in.

That said, they really need to fix a major problem with PvP: AFKers. Because of the astral diamond incentive, people will join a match and then just sit there while they do something else. There really needs to be some sort of activity requirement for rewards. There is nothing more infuriating than being on a team that's getting its ass kicked because some selfish jackass is sitting it out.

The game certainly has it's flaws and the pricing structure is a huge black mark.

I'm currently rocking a 12k gearscore and I haven't done a single end-game dungeon yet (not even a tier 1). I spent my Guardian pack astral diamonds on the auction house. I have replaced a couple of bits (helm and chest) since then with PvP gear (PvP Gear is purchased with Glory, and you can get enough pretty damn quickly) but I mainly did that because it looks better.

If you has the cash, they has the win.

BTW: PvP in this game is awesome, the combat system suits it really well. They just need to expand it. At the moment there's only 2 PvP maps and they're both 5 v 5 capture points scenarios.

I honestly can't wait for the 20 vs 20 Gauntlgrym PvP.

I used to just call it "spending some time" I never got into the "dating" mentality because of all the formalities and ambiguities that come with that word, I figured, if I want formality (and ambiguity lol), I should just hang out at work. It was liberating for me to just enjoy the company of the person and experience the journey.

Even now, you can purchase the best gear in the game for a few thousand astral diamonds (dilithium).

Wait, what!?

... I'm taking a trip to the Auction House tonight.

So far i havent felt compelled to buy anything but i am only level 20. I can however see me wanting to get bank/inventory upgrades because im starting to get a bit full already.
Bugs wise i have yet to see any but like i said i have only experienced part of the content.
Lag wise i have been lucky i get the occasional bit of rubberbanding but that is it of course when i log onto today the game will lag like hell to punish me :P

All in all it seems like a fun little game, not sure i will be dedicating as much time to it as i have for star trek but i will probably keep playing it.

Interesting. I've seen little lag, don't feel pressured to spend money I don't have, and haven't really encountered the bugs aside the from the fact that the sparkly path occasionally leads me to the wrong place. I'm not meaning to contradict you, I just had no idea the game was having the problems it's had and I'm glad that you brought them up.

I don't do PvP (and love that I can advance easily in the game without it, unlike in Lord of the Rings Online), so I didn't know it was so bugged. I don't use the exchange (I know I'm losing in-game money, but I really can't figure out how they do the exchange in Neverwinter in the first place--far more complicated than in STO--and just sell all my stuff back to merchants instead). The only real problem I've had in the Foundry is finding missions that are clearly designed for group player, given the number of foes and all, but are not marked as such.

I really hope they clear out the bugs, because I am absolutely in love with this game. STO has felt very workmanlike for me lately and I've loved the change of pace.

I love dating.
When I was single, I think I loved it even more.
I've always been the type of person to enjoy woo'ing, surprising and making an event out of dates. It is what you make it.
If I expected things, instead of making things happen, I probably wouldn't soon be celebrating 11 years together.
My "advice" would be that, if you really want a relationship, you might want to bite the bullet and be to someone else what you want for yourself. Change it up. Dating can be very diverse and exciting.

I'm really happy you've enjoyed it, and learned a lot from space STF tactics. Unfortunately though, I long ago made the decision not to make more things for the fleet.

I am however happy to make a non-affiliated revised compendium in the future including ground. :)

Take care buddy! :)
