If you want to get into it, now is the time. They are doing a "limited open" beta, where they're basically taking first come, first server. I just signed up to see if they were still accepting and it said I "should recieve an email if I am accepted within the next few weeks", and less than thirty seconds later my acceptance email was in my inbox.

Life... is like a box of chocolates. A cheap, thoughtless, perfunctory gift that nobody ever asks for. Unreturnable, because all you get back is another box of chocolates. You're stuck with this undefinable whipped-mint crap that you mindlessly wolf down when there's nothing else left to eat. Sure, once in a while, there's a peanut butter cup, or an English toffee. But they're gone too fast, the taste is fleeting. So you end up with nothing but broken bits, filled with hardened jelly and teeth-crunching nuts, and if you're desperate enough to eat those, all you've got left is a... is an empty box... filled with useless, brown paper wrappers.

If you download this beta, all your characters are erased and your first child will be stillborn.

Actually, everyone I know in the beta says it's shaping up to be the best expansion since Velious. And at least they're not playing politics with the testers! Even during the previous "open" betas, you had to suck some serious Sony cock to get in. There's a reason entire guilds would just happen to get accepted into the "randomized" beta process Sony used to use.

KaL n I have been in it since last week =) tho people on there are annoying us

=( Everyone wants to be lvl 65 and no one wants to test out the low end of the spectrum.. *rolls eyes* jerks


On the bright side.. we got some EQ friends into beta today *kisses Snoota in thanks for the info* so we can do the group thing for the dungeons without having to rely on the mercy of all the uberbuffed 65s *rolls eyes* =D *smooches Snoots again cause he rocks*

No because the adventures are aimed at your groups level, not a specific level like current dungeons. Also, all people in a group must be 7 or less levels apart or you can't get an adventure period.

All the mobs should be blue to the people in the group that are in the "average level".

I went in and made a 65 character, because that's what level my main character is. What I have the most experience with, and such. Not just to be "uber." I feel the most comfortable testing with something I'm used to.

And a bard and a ranger whose names I cannot spell, as they were randomly generated.

Rogue is 55, others are all 65, but can be remade into whatever level (excepting the sk). The people from FV who were in wanted to be silly and uber for a change, so... most of them are 65 of something they've not played before.

I'm curious about a couple of things...

1) Where're the dungeons?

2) How do I get into them to secure loot.

3) How the heck do I use AA's that you can make a hotkey of? It's not working with just me clicking on the hotkey.

1) 2) You find a group of 4+ people (6 is better), get an adventure at an adventure merchant either in NRo, SRo, EC, BB or Everfrost, then head into the closest dungeon entrance.

3) you click on the aa name, and then hotkey, if it doesn't work, your char doesn't have the aa.

Clicking on the hotkey that's created does nothing.

And nobody seems to want to group.

In response.. yes I did the same thing.. except I copied my own lvl 65 character over for testing that aspect. Im just talking about people wanting only to beta the dungeons for 65.. Kinna makes me wish that Sony would do closed betas in-house.. Just hope that people are doin their jobs with it instead of tryin to use it as an excuse to feel good about themselves.

Hell I copied Syn over because she was outfitted better than the default betabuffed druid was. I feel most comfortable in my own skin and clothes in that aspect.

Those are the ones that will be used most, them getting betaed throughly is a good thing. Them getting throughly tested by a bunch of people that haven't ever seen lvl 50 is a bad thing because it may end up getting the difficulty nerfed by people /feedbacking that X is impossible for them. Wish they had stuck to the max level on your main account = max level you can /betabuff.
