color=#0000ff size=2>As someone who came into the game without having played the
beta I felt a bit gimped. I learned what I could on the fly but you really need
to plan ahead with some of the classes and the enhancements/feats should be
documented someplace for easy reference during character generation e.g. I
now know that I may never be able to get Combat Expertise for Gizmo as it
requires Int of 13. A quite appropriate D'oh! right there

<DIV>So we have in the Guild on Boldrei</DIV>
<DIV>feel free to elaborate guys<BR> </DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT color=#cc0000>The Angry Dragons</FONT></STRONG></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><STRONG>Leigh,</STRONG> <STRONG>Rogue</STRONG>, DEX based, daggers
and throwing daggers specced, planning on being scout/trapfinder/backstabber.
</DIV>
<DIV>Female Halfling Annabel Swiftfinger</DIV>
<DIV><STRONG>Dalton,</STRONG> <STRONG>Fighter</STRONG>, Tank</DIV>
<DIV>Male Warforged Gizmo xxx</DIV>
<DIV><STRONG>Joe,</STRONG> <STRONG>Wizard</STRONG>, All round
flamethrower,</DIV>
<DIV>Female Elf Wynn xxx</DIV>
<DIV><STRONG>Conor</STRONG>, <STRONG>Cleric</STRONG>, A tad too fond of
The Darkness</DIV>
<DIV>Female Human Sashik xxx</DIV>
<DIV>(can't remember all the second names sorry)</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I do feel compelled to explain the name</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT color=#cc0000>Angry Dragon</FONT></STRONG><BR>Immediately
after you blow your load in a girl's mouth, smack the back of her head and
make it come out her nose. When she gets up she'll look like an angry dragon.
</DIV>
<DIV><BR clear=all>8-) not to be explained to all of course.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>So I had fun, it was a tad hectic but that's the problem with this long
beta period, Joe and I have done all this and forget to give you guys time to
enjoy the experience, sorry. After the next night, we should be up to spec and
be on the same page. Personally, I'm going all out trapfinder/disarmer and
stealth/move silently and I hope to be able to scout ahead a bit more. I can
take skills to increase my stealth speed if it is too slow (but like 5 % isn't
much.). </DIV>
<DIV>We do need to slow it down a bit anyway as running through the dungeon
will only get us killed and lose 25 % of the XP for it (as we saw with the
thieves-lucky with those CLW's). Up to now it's been easy but as I said we've
also played all these scenarios before. I was really lagged towards the end of
the night, the last dungeon with the scorpions you guys had finished before I
opened the door, hopefully just a teething problem. </DIV>
<DIV>Overall I think it was good, I need to figure out better weapon swapping
between daggers and throwing daggers, When my 20 are gone I reload
automatically but the icon disappears from my fast bar so I have to drag it
from my inventory if I need to swap back again quickly. I'm going to report
that as a bug or see if there's a better way to do it. </DIV>
<DIV>So have we planned an evening? Have we another 2? Have we classes we're
missing we'd like them to play? How did you guys find it?</DIV>
