02:20 Kilrathi|PAX i should back at my pc saturday at 10pm pst
02:20 Kilrathi|PAX looking at my planner
02:55 Kilrathi|PAX typing up a page of wrap up for rift
02:57 Kilrathi|PAX ok im out ill be back later tonight more likely around midnight pst
03:11 PAXZen Scott is a short man.
03:13 PAXZen It was a long and painful day. Running, interviews and such. Only got to play enough to get to level 7 on rift, as an Assassin, and 4 as a Champion.
03:14 PAXZen Of course, I did burn 5-10 minutes just letting a rift do its thing.
03:14 iddqd you watched it grow?
03:16 PAXZen iddqd: Yeah, just watched it get bigger for a ways away.
03:17 Xanax how was the aggro radius at the low level vs the rift mobs?
03:18 PAXZen Xanax: Not much new stuff. They only had the Elementalist, Assassin, Ranger, and Champion callings on preview, and Abi tried to get me in on the instance run, but I had an interview with Warren Spector.
03:18 Xanax Oh nice, thanks for the update
03:18 Xanax Maybe in the following days :)
03:18 PAXZen Things I noticed: Rifts appear on the map. Mobs are definitely tethered.
03:18 PAXZen I ran through a couple just to see how long they'd follow me.
03:19 Xanax tethered?
03:19 iddqd leashed
03:19 Xanax Hows the mechanics and motions feel? pretty smooth?
03:19 Malleus73 Pax, sorry if I'm not familar with your page but where / when will the interview be available for us to see?
03:20 PAXZen The Warren Spector one? I have to write it up tonight, so probably tomorrow.
03:20 Xanax If you guys want to upload anything to my pages you can :D
03:20 PAXZen I'm going to be talking to the Trion guys tomorrow or tomorrow night sometime.
03:21 Malleus73 lol.. ok.. guess I need to be more patient. :/
03:21 PAXZen Xanax: Yeah, it was all pretty smooth. Definitely a polished experience.
03:21 Faelor Oh hey Zen, sneaky sneaky.
03:22 PAXZen I want to rock the instance run either tomorrow or sunday, since 10 pts isn't enough to really play with the calling.
03:22 iddqd Zen if you're interested in SWTOR there's this thing going on tomorrow http://twitter.com/swtor
03:23 PAXZen I played a sith inquisitor today.
03:23 Xanax nice PAXZen , man i look forward to it!!
03:23 Braen how was that?
03:23 Xanax especially the pve content
03:23 PAXZen Tis WoW in space, but the voice acting really adds to the experience.
03:23 Faelor Did you level to 10 or was it a /level thing?
03:25 PAXZen You have to level yourself. The girlfriend actually got farther than me on the Mage she was playing.
03:25 Braen what soul was she checking out?
03:26 Xanax will she be playing with you PAXZen ?
03:26 * Faelor flies away
03:26 PAXZen I think she was a pyromancer.
03:26 Chokurei Where is this convention?
03:26 Braen nice... haha
03:27 PAXZen This was her first exposure to the game and she really enjoyed it
03:27 Xanax oh nbice
03:27 Braen did leveling semi too.fast or just right to you?
03:28 Xanax i would say during gamescom its hard to experience, because things are set on +easy mode
03:28 Braen and did yall group or try to level.solo?
03:28 PAXZen Seemed about right. My only issue is the announcements, like "Rift Closed" or "Leveled up"
03:29 PAXZen Seemed a bit much, but if I wasn't playing attention, I could see them be useful.
03:29 Braen in what way?
03:29 Braen loud?
03:29 PAXZen Girlfriend thought they were epic.
03:29 PAXZen Just very flashy.
03:29 Xanax preteens <3 the shinies
03:30 Xanax not implying your gf was, sorry, that sounded bad
03:30 Braen so to closed some rifts? how was that?
03:31 PAXZen Rift opens, wait a bit, mobs spawn in waves that get larger in enemy type.
03:31 PAXZen After the third wave, the rift closes.
03:31 Xanax How is the time between waves? pretty slow or you need to be organized n quick?
03:31 Faelor You don't want C-C-C-COMOBO BREAKER! exploding on your screen?
03:31 Faelor .. .Combo.
03:32 PAXZen It seemed that you had to finish a wave before the next one came.
03:33 PAXZen I'll try starting a wave tomorrow and then letting it run wild.
03:33 Xanax I hope their is like a proximity around the rift that it uses to decide if mobns are dead or alive before spawning the next rift
03:33 Xanax would hate to kill aall mobs but 1 and have it lone wandering trying to get the next stage to come lol
03:33 Braen did you see anything become planetouched like they have mentioned before?
03:34 PAXZen Well with the leash, I doubt the rift spawns will get far from the rift. (I'll check that tomorrow too)
03:34 PAXZen I did not.
03:35 Xanax Well thanks for the info Zen
03:35 PAXZen Invasions were cool, seeing a mob or two run for the guards and do their thing.
03:36 PAXZen (their thing being dying)
03:36 Mira Do the village people fight the mobs?
03:36 PAXZen The guards are currently stronger than the invasion mobs.
03:36 Xanax oh nice lol
03:36 Xanax how is the targeting and mob differences on the target display?
03:36 Braen is the cop village person better than the Indian one?
03:37 Xanax is it easy to tell between reg mobs and elites, etc?
03:37 Braen did they nerd he cop village person?
03:38 PAXZen Braen: High five on the reference.
03:38 PAXZen Xanax: Yes.
03:38 PAXZen Though we only saw one.
03:38 Xanax Oh nice
03:38 PAXZen Big dude. Something Firecaller.
03:38 Xanax ohhhhhh sick
03:38 Mira Nice, I was wondering how interactive they were.
03:40 PAXZen Rotation wise, the Assassin was: Strike four or five times, and then Finishing Blow (like a Wow Rogue)
03:41 Faelor Sounds like all Rogues will be like ;p
03:41 Faelor Later Braen mang.
03:41 PAXZen The Champion was: Bleed Move, Strike three times, Combo Move, repeat.
03:41 PAXZen TThe charge move can only be used out of combat.
03:41 PAXZen Which was kinda lame.
03:41 PAXZen Night Braen.
03:42 Faelor I'm sure there will be a branch ability to change that by release ;p
03:42 Braen have fun Zen. keep up the info.
04:18 Mira can you talk about what impressed you or your impressions from your play today?
04:22 PAXZen Impressions. Hurm.
04:23 Sinvrall Well enligthen
04:23 Cranks Night all
04:23 Sinvrall night
04:23 Mira night Cranks
04:24 PAXZen First I played the Assassin, who is mostly like the WoW Rogue in that his finishing blows are powered by combo points that stack on the target.
04:24 Sinvrall Kinda like most rogues throughout MMO history
04:24 Mira similiar to WH too
04:24 Sinvrall SHadowbane three
04:24 PAXZen He had a few other attacks, like a Backstab and stealth move, but I can't say I enjoy the playstyle myself.
04:25 Sinvrall WHat is your playstyle?
04:25 Mira assassin has invis?
04:25 PAXZen The Champion was much more fun for me, with a OoC charge move, a basic strike, a bleed, and a finishing blow.
04:26 PAXZen Unfortunately, as I said earlier, the charge move was only usable if you weren't in combat.
04:26 Mira so it's an opening move only?
04:26 PAXZen The Champion just felt more dynamic and powerful (for me, YMMV)
04:26 PAXZen Yep.
04:26 Sinvrall The merc in DAOC had a skill called dirty tricks where you'd throw dirt in your opponents eyes as a stun. Games need more dirty tricks
04:27 Mira lol I remember that
04:27 PAXZen Rifts spawned randomly, but they also seemed to have a stable Rift respawning for the demo area.
04:28 Mira did they have more than one in an area?
04:28 PAXZen Rift either breaks open, or there's an item you can use to tear it open (demo only maybe)
04:28 Sinvrall Any pvp teasers other than instanced?
04:28 PAXZen I only saw fire rifts.
04:28 HorRIFTic Hey Guys, HorRIFTic Intentions blog here
04:28 Sinvrall Hey Hor
04:28 PAXZen I dueled one guy. Lost. Nothing outside of that so far.
04:29 Sinvrall thanks pax
04:29 PAXZen Duel request, flag drops, countdown.
04:29 HorRIFTic Any information on Armor sets? will there be any? do they give bonuses?
04:29 * Anasazi nom nom noms a beer
04:30 Sinvrall me to Anasaz... Getting ready for friday night here in Honolulu
04:30 PAXZen I'm sure there will be some, as gear is marked for souls, but I didn't get to see any.
04:31 PAXZen Kilrathi got to be a part of today's instance run, so he might have some more on the gear side.
04:33 PAXZen oh, and there didn't seem to be a dance animation for men, at least when I tried it.
04:33 Anasazi xanax promised me a new funny cartoon. xanax no make!
04:33 PAXZen My girlfriend's mage had one.
04:33 Sinvrall He's too busy drinking a keg Anasaz
04:34 Ravenwolf T.T qq at not getting to go to pax
04:34 Mira dang maybe they haven't done all the dances
04:34 PAXZen Fall damage can kill of course. (yes, I found a high cliff and jumped)
04:34 HorRIFTic what was the dance animation?
04:34 PAXZen A little side to side wiggle. Nothing memorable.
04:38 PAXZen There were some of those beta cards pretty much everywhere. I assume they were the 'chance at beta' ones as they were given out like candy.
04:39 Ravenwolf im gunna have to rely on my stunning looks to get me into beta
04:39 HorRIFTic PAXzen, any more info on Beastmasters? Think that is the class I wanna play
04:39 HorRIFTic Raven, you are in trouble then. : )
04:39 Xanax pics or it didnt happen Ravenwolf
04:39 Ravenwolf =O ouch!
04:39 HorRIFTic haha
04:39 Ravenwolf well.. my sluttyness then
04:40 Xanax pics
04:40 HorRIFTic Oh, well that might win ya some points....and, yes, pics
04:40 Anasazi i want pic of xanax doing a keg stand!
04:40 Mira lol you could cyber for beta
04:40 Xanax hahahaha i'll do my best
04:40 PAXZen Nope. The loadout of classes
05:21 Ravenwolf LOL http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=izxxsozlCaU
05:34 Anasazi http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=2200590644#!/group.php?gid=2200590644&v=info
05:41 Kilrathi|BYOC writing a write up of pax day 1 of rift
05:41 Kilrathi|BYOC didnt take much video of the game because its mostly the same stuff
05:41 Kilrathi|BYOC as at gamecoms
05:41 Kilrathi|BYOC of course ill video the instance runs
05:41 Anasazi what does this mean from PAX? •PvP Flag is a go on PvE servers
05:42 slack i'd image it means you can 'PVP flag' yourself, allowing people from the opposite faction to attack you..
05:45 Kilrathi|BYOC well first saturday for me is portal 2 get to play that before a 3hour+ line starts
05:50 Kilrathi|BYOC ok shoot me up questions
05:51 Thee Was there anything you did not like when you played the game?
05:52 Kilrathi|BYOC more toon creation options if thats your thing but that im sure will be increased over time
05:55 Kilrathi|BYOC its the same build from what i could tell
05:55 Selene did you get to run around? were the zones decently sized?
05:55 Thee ah i see
05:56 Kilrathi|BYOC i only got up to level 10 the zone was pretty straight forward, there is quest helper like feature built into the map
05:56 HorRIFTic How is the combat? Fast like WoW or mushy like WAR?
05:57 Kilrathi|BYOC well i only got to level 10 (i played a sin) so it felt inline with eq2
05:58 HorRIFTic Any evidence of armor sets at all? And do armor sets give set bonuses?
06:00 Kilrathi|BYOC i didnt see any "set bonuses", im sure ill get to see better look at the better gear in instance runs
06:00 Mira what kind of loot have you gotten?
06:01 Kilrathi|BYOC simple greens that each one of the core roles
06:01 Mira like armor pieces? smart loot? vendor trash, coin?
06:02 HorRIFTic How are the quests? Standard MMO quests or do they have a spin on them? Something different?
06:02 Kilrathi|BYOC i was soloing all the time
06:02 Kilrathi|BYOC standard mmo afair
06:02 bc whats the music like?
06:03 Kilrathi|BYOC i didnt have the head phones because i was talking to devs at the same time
06:03 brammator what's "world bosses"? contested?
06:03 brammator or instanced?
06:03 Kilrathi|BYOC contested yes
06:03 Kilrathi|BYOC 1 is currently in the alpha build i was told
06:04 Maeloda just rejoined the chat - im visualizing everyone crowding around kilrathi like hes jesus
06:04 HorRIFTic Any word on how PvP servers are going to work? PvP anywhere?
06:04 brammator one sweet 24/7 camping, bitter please.
06:05 Kilrathi|BYOC didnt ask much about pvp today thats for saturday, today i wanted to get the raid question out of the way
06:05 brammator any outleveling?
06:05 HorRIFTic Nice, any additional info you can give us on raids?
06:05 Mira raid question?
06:05 brammator gray mobs that dont attack you? gray gear?
06:05 Kilrathi|BYOC i didnt test that i should tho lol
06:06 Kilrathi|BYOC btw when /duel if you win you do
06:06 Ravenwolf so the raid content is max level i presume?
06:06 Maeloda unless they reduce it to near nothing
06:06 Kilrathi|BYOC yes
06:06 HorRIFTic 10 and 20 man raids?
06:07 Kilrathi|BYOC but they stated earlier that there maybe lower lvl raids im not 100%
06:07 Kilrathi|BYOC yes hor
06:07 brammator yeah I think I saw that on "dungeon irc session" too
06:07 Kilrathi|BYOC as for raid content there is 2 raids zones in
06:08 brammator macro system?
06:08 Kilrathi|BYOC 1 has 10 bosses hammerknell fortress and 1 has single dragon greenscales bright
06:08 brammator any traces of moddable interface?
06:08 Kilrathi|BYOC there was a macro sytem in the menu system but i didnt play with it
06:08 Selene2 will they add more raids before launch?
06:08 Kilrathi|BYOC well theres also Rift raids too
06:09 HorRIFTic How many world bosses? Any idea?
06:09 Maeloda rift
06:09 Maeloda raids
06:09 Maeloda do we..
06:09 Kilrathi|BYOC 1 hotr in game so far
06:09 Maeloda enter?
06:09 HorRIFTic hotr?
06:09 Kilrathi|BYOC ill have to find out more details
06:09 Kilrathi|BYOC hor i mean
06:10 Rioku Kilrathi have u posted the pics somewhere?
06:10 Kilrathi|BYOC yea uploads seem slow as hell tho
06:10 Maeloda yeah that would be really neat if they had the entering of rifts/planes in release
06:10 Maeloda but i doubt it
06:10 HorRIFTic expansion probably
06:11 Kilrathi|BYOC as for expansion there will be bigs ones and small ones
06:11 Ravenwolf yea if you get a chance see if they will talka bout entering rifts
06:11 Maeloda is by rift raids you mean just pushing forward toward the enemy that has entrenched itself?
06:11 Kilrathi|BYOC fighting big raid like boss yes
06:11 Maeloda considering the server architecture they are using, id expect that for expansion content - keep it fresh, i think they will :)
06:11 HorRIFTic you mean big paid expansions and smaller free ones?
06:12 Kilrathi|BYOC didnt ask about price but i will
06:12 Maeloda i think the smaller ones, in a theory here.. would be like microtransactions, but worth it lol
06:12 Maeloda just an idea
06:12 Ravenwolf nice
06:12 Kilrathi|BYOC mael theres alot of eq2 hate here
06:12 Kilrathi|BYOC microtranactions is like a evil word lol
06:12 Anasazi i hate eq2
06:12 Maeloda i know!
06:13 Ravenwolf did they mention if they were already mapping expacs out? or are they just worrying abou tmain game now?
06:13 Mira I hate RMTs
06:13 Maeloda thats why i said worth it. they'd have to again make it worth it
06:13 Kilrathi|BYOC they have plans
06:13 Maeloda not silly..costume packs or whatever
06:13 Selene2 are they planning on releasing new content often?
06:13 HorRIFTic World size? Any ideas?
06:13 Maeloda they better this long into development lol :P fail otherwise
06:13 Selene2 as in, more often than blizzard? lol
06:14 Maeloda blizz has to redo things and even have dedicated servers for new content, trion shouldn't have that problem
06:14 Kilrathi|BYOC nothing set in yet, it depends on size of the expansion i would guessz
06:14 HorRIFTic Could you get any idea about the size of the world?
06:14 Kilrathi|BYOC and new souls can be easily added
06:14 Maeloda oh yeah, world size
06:15 Kilrathi|BYOC world map wasnt there
06:15 Maeloda whoops horrift got it :)
06:15 Kilrathi|BYOC i can ask tho ;)
06:15 HorRIFTic any info on Port Scion?
06:15 Kilrathi|BYOC havent asked
06:15 Ravenwolf Yea ask if what the current map is going to be the only stuff at release <3
06:16 Selene2 i second that!
06:16 HorRIFTic ok, gotta ask....any hints on beta? even teeny weeny hints? :)
06:16 Maeloda yeah the map part seems to be a sticking issue with fans - at least if the map is all they have, people can be at peace with knowing and not wondering lmao
06:17 Kilrathi|BYOC beta this year
06:18 HorRIFTic solo vs. group content...what are they focusing on?
06:18 brammator any names revealed? aside of chloroform dude and stormcaller and icecream
06:18 brammator soul names
06:18 Maeloda nah that dec 31 stuff is likely the end of a beta phase, closed or otherwise
06:18 Kilrathi|BYOC i an get more names :)
06:19 Maeloda its a Q1 release, and they seem to still want room to fix things just in case,sooo
06:19 Ravenwolf yea the dec 31st i reckon is near end of beta or closed beta phase anyway
06:19 Maeloda if not sept (im doubting it imo), then oct/nov
06:19 Kilrathi|BYOC thats a target btw
06:19 brammator mage "tank" soul is in?
06:20 Ravenwolf any word of a necromancer lovely Kilrathi?
06:20 HorRIFTic lets slow down so he can answer questions, lol
06:20 Kilrathi|BYOC stay tune
06:20 Ravenwolf oh you tease
06:20 Anasazi think someone at Trion will adopt me so I can get in freinds and family?
06:20 Ravenwolf ^.~
06:21 HorRIFTic I will adopt you :) Might not get you into beta though
06:21 Kilrathi|BYOC as for solo vs grp content if i recall right that was answer earlier
06:21 Ravenwolf can we be adopted as fraternal twins anasazi?
06:21 Anasazi sure if t gets us in

06:21 HorRIFTic Found a forum that was giving them away, lol
06:21 Kilrathi|BYOC btw there is a bit of "lag" here so i get you message about a minute late
06:27 Kilrathi|BYOC nothing that cio hasnt coverd yet
06:28 Maeloda i love showing people this game
06:28 Mira hmm nothing left... as in blank space? will you fall off the map?
06:29 Maeloda and i didnt even realize how cryptic it was until you said that lol
06:30 * Mira raises an eyebrow
06:30 Maeloda i want to visit Cliffside Vale now :)
06:30 Kilrathi|BYOC so any have any question for me to bring down to the booth
06:30 Maeloda maps
06:30 HorRIFTic Port Scion
06:30 HorRIFTic need info on Port Scion
06:30 Mira crafting if possible
06:31 Kilrathi|BYOC what about maps
06:31 Maeloda character customization, whether its staying as it
06:31 Maeloda is
06:31 Selene2 size, if there's gonna be more zones or not
06:31 Selene2 that type of map stuff
06:31 Maeloda yup
06:31 Mira world size?
06:31 HorRIFTic How are PvP servers set up? Kill opposite faction anywhere? hopefully
06:31 Maeloda yup
06:31 HorRIFTic Add ons seem to be a hot forum topic so ask about that
06:32 Mira or zone size?
06:32 Selene2 both!
06:32 HorRIFTic I would love to have some more beastmaster info
06:32 Selene2 i wanna know if the map we saw is complete
06:32 Mira check out the new mages
06:32 Selene2 and...ask them when we're gonna have more mage class info
06:32 HorRIFTic Also, someone mentioned a tank-mage soul, is that in?
06:32 Selene2 nvm mira beat me to it lol
06:33 Kilrathi|BYOC i already got stuff for the other mage classes going to see if i can get them spit it out
06:34 HorRIFTic Beastmaster, Port Scion and PvP server information are my three biggest questions. Oh, and add-ons
06:35 Kilrathi|BYOC as in threat metter and dead boss type stuff
06:36 HorRIFTic just will add-ons be allowed in general
06:36 Kilrathi|BYOC got ya
06:36 Selene they said something cryptic about targeting at gamescom
06:36 Selene something about working on a system like vanguard
06:36 Selene can you get them to cough up more info on that?
06:36 HorRIFTic dont need specifics at the moment, just wanna know if they are allowed and, if not, how customizable is the UI? As in moving hotbars and such
06:37 HorRIFTic Aaah, yes....dual targeting, will it be added?
06:37 Maeloda I know that when they're silent on the forums, they're working. And listening. They surely know about duel-targeting ;)
06:37 Rioku when will we get official info on bards? :)
06:37 Selene i don't see how they couldn't, lol
06:37 Selene there've been some pretty long discussions on it
06:38 HorRIFTic yeah, Im trying to make sure I mention the big topics on the forums
06:38 HorRIFTic Oooh, cross faction communication? Yes or no?
06:38 Maeloda I hope bards can dress gaily and have lutes..uhh
06:38 Mira collision
06:38 HorRIFTic yeah, collision detection
06:38 HorRIFTic I started that topic and it exploded
06:39 Mira made pop mad
06:39 Maeloda colission detection (though in footage i saw its pass through), and even a /say cross faction comm? i mean, even for RP purposes
06:39 Kilrathi|BYOC i was walk through stuff
06:40 HorRIFTic Yeah but collision detection could be turned on at any time, though i dont think it will be
06:40 Mira how's the world collision, like in landscape?
06:40 Selene underwater dungeons? lol
06:40 HorRIFTic but cross faction communication was a very hot topic on the forums recently
06:40 Anasazi when is the pax interview starting?
06:41 Kilrathi|BYOC when the dev team is free from the press
06:41 HorRIFTic Did you meet Scott Kilrathi?
06:41 Kilrathi|BYOC yes i did
06:41 Anasazi damn press aways in the way
06:41 Maeloda press = good
06:41 HorRIFTic He as cool in person as he seems in interviews?
06:41 Anasazi go bother paris hilton
06:42 Anasazi yes press good
06:42 Maeloda especially for more main site pages, like mmorpg.com had for plane of fire
06:42 Selene id love to see more press coverage...
06:42 Kilrathi|BYOC yea he knows where im coming from (IE the older hardcore players) and where the market is at
06:42 Selene if it weren't for you guys at pax, we wouldn't have that much info
06:42 Maeloda i hope this is a successful appeasing of both worlds
06:43 Maeloda looks good so far though really
06:43 Kilrathi|BYOC alot of the media is focusing on GW2, and TOR from what i have seeen
06:43 Maeloda GW2 will be fun, but it was always its own thing. hype machine is just doing its job :)
06:43 Kilrathi|BYOC so been getting alot of qa with devs for a good chunk of time
06:43 Maeloda TOR has so much QQ. it may be the new WoW just for that...
06:44 Maeloda whatd u get
06:45 Kilrathi|BYOC have i have personally talked to scott the least and devs of the areas that i had question about, (scott cant know every single thing about the devlopment of every single class and sucvh)
06:45 Kilrathi|BYOC the most
06:45 Kilrathi|BYOC TTH did a interview with scott while i more then likely got more info then tth got :)

07:01 Tirith Woot, friend tossed me a beta potential code from PAX.
07:02 Tirith There seem to be tons of them, which makes me think it's a pretty small chance to actually get in with them.
07:05 Kilrathi|BYOC btw how much qq will there be if they give out beta keys to all again at the event
07:15 HorRIFTic Night Mira. Think I am hitting the sack too. I got all of this info up on HorRIFTic Intentions if you want to check it out!
07:15 HorRIFTic http://horrifticintentions.wordpress.com/2010/09/03/consolidated-information-from-pax/
07:16 Ravenwolf i wonder what if i cud i'd have asha's babies but since that is genetically impossible (besides the fact its a fictional character) we will have to move to a liberal part of the world and adopt a baby from a foreign country
07:24 Ravenwolf My Chloromancer is sexier than your Bard
07:26 Ravenwolf Chloromancer is a healing mage
07:26 Ravenwolf or a mage, who heals if you will
07:26 Ravenwolf or a mage who smokes too much chloroine
