Awesome. Anything I should know when first starting out so I don't cripple myself late game? Or is the game forgiving enough that I can just get to 60 and start from there?

Also, if Deckar@thealac could get a guild invite that'd be Rad. I promise not to flood chat with stupid questions.

It's pretty forgiving. I haven't played my GWF for ages so I can't exactly help you with a levelling spec. But getting to 60, respeccing and gearing up is generally the way people go. Do dailies as often as you can, level leadership, always invoke. Leadership will help you end-game with AD, and also help while levelling.

Is there any way to get the robot to train black ice crafting for you?

It's pretty forgiving. Don't overlook Daring Shout when leveling up. It doesn't do any damage, but the marks it puts on enemies give you a huge damage boost which more outpaces any other skill you could put there.

I did some testing last night, and that skill plus the second Sentinel feat that gives +15% damage to marked targets increased my DPS by a good amount.

There's nothing to train, the tiers are unlocked by doing IWD dailies. The most you have to do is refine black ice down once you've crafted your items anyway.

Subjunctive's script automatically refines diamonds for you as well, if you're grinding leadership.

I had it installed at home but not at work. Doing this now. Is everything automated with this script? or better yet is there a little write up on what it does?

I'm assuming it's this one http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=SnxrRdtH

Hey, so just to let anyone know who actually cares about getting any of the summer mounts: They're NOT BoE as the tooltip says. They're actually BoP. I guess some other people have had this issue too: http://nw-forum.perfectworld.com/showthread.php?742231-Pig-Mount-Tooltip-Shows-as-BoE-Actually-its-BoP-Buyer-Beware&p=8822221

I guess I can ride my armored boar around now, and I might still get a pig mount, but I had planned to get some to sell, so this is a bit of a disappointment. Thanks a lot for the awesome screwed-up tooltip, Cryptic!

Pretty much everything from the event that says Bind on Equip on the tooltip is in reality Bind on Pickup.

This includes the mounts, companion, and endless water toys.

How do I get the script to use two adventurers on all Leadership tasks?

Anyone know if the script can be configured to actually make things like armor and weapons? Seems like it only does the 5 minute gathering tasks.

If you go into the Dashboard of Grease/Tampermonkey and then open up the script itself and scroll down a bit, you'll see a section for each profession and 20 lines of text under each corresponding to the profession level.

These are the tasks the script tries to run and the priority it tries to run them in at that level, so to adjust that all you need to do is edit in what you'd like.

So, instead of:

pre:
 // Mailsmithing
            taskName:"Armorsmithing_Med",
            level: {
                 0:["Hire your first Prospector"],
                 1:["Chain Boots","Chain Shirt"],
                 2:["Gather Iron Ore","Hire an additional Prospector"],

You can have it run like this:

pre:
 // Mailsmithing
            taskName:"Armorsmithing_Med",
            level: {
                 0:["Hire your first Prospector"],
                 1:["Chain Boots","Chain Shirt"],
                 2:["Chain Boots of Badassdom","Gather Iron Ore","Hire an additional Prospector"],

Just insert the name of the task you want to run into the list in the same formatting, save it, and then reload the Gateway page and restart the script! If your profession isn't already level 20, make sure you adjust the lines for upcoming levels as well, as when you level up it uses the new line to decide what to do!

Get rid of everything but your adventurers. It intentionally doesn't do it otherwise because it doesn't keep a running tally of how many dudes you have. If you have 6 adventurers for 6 slots, you wouldn't want to double up on them.

Got some advice from a Trickster Rogue I know about how to do respectable damage in dungeons. He kept up with gweefs and cws in module 3 so that's saying something. He's also 17k of gs so that's another thing.

He says for the trash clearing you want lashing, dazing strike and blitz because they can hit multiple targets. At the boss blitz gets dropped for wicked reminder. For trash clearing the best daily is whirlwind of blades and for the boss its still lurkers.

Stats wise you want to focus on armour pen first. He doesn't slot impossible to catch because he has a high deflect so i guess that was important to him too. If you dont have high deflect you put in impossible to catch for dazing. Once you get 24% armour pen you go crit and power. You want to have 50% chance to crit.

This is supposedly a decent enough set of feats http://nwcalc.com/tr?b=cn4:13ydj4:13ydj4,1fc3cki:100000:15u000:1z00z1&h=0&p=min

This is pretty much every semi-decent TR, aside from actually bothering with aoe for trash (and the geese). I wouldnt expect to get off more than 1 daze+blitz per pull, and dazing's targeting is pretty wonky.. Hard to argue with actual numbers though, so I'll give it a go. Hopefully when I'm sober.

After crashing yesterday evening I havent been able to log in properly. The game verifies all files before logging in, and then either crashes before launching or after a few seconds of play. Hopefully the patch randomly fixes it..

Patchy; "Wondrous Bazaar: Many of the items in the "Special Items" tab of the store have had their AD price reduced. Items included but not limited to: Mount Training Manuals, Companions, Mounts and cosmetic armors.". Oh god I hope this makes purple pig mount affordable.

Worldwide, except Russia or China or something like that.

I just noticed I made a typo on the opening bid of my Allure Ioun Stone auction, and it's going for about 530,000 right now. Too late to pull it, and it closes at around 7pm EST (I think). I'd rather a goon pick it up at a discount than some random online person.

I have gotten rid of everything except the adventurers, it's still not doing it. I'm guessing I also have to change something in the script?
