October 31, 2012Farewell For Now Hiatus Message
https://ascendantsofascalon.files.wordpress.com/2012/10/hiatus-message.mp3This message is for those of you that don’t follow us on Twitter. For the time being, Dave, Mel, Jeremy and I have agreed to put the show on hiatus until such a time that more life is breathed into Guild Wars 2’s PvE content. We are all very grateful for the support you’ve all shown us over the past few months and hope to return to you very soon. But for now, thank you all for listening, have a great time gaming.

I’m still assigning people mental defects when they talk in public chat, it’s Dave
My main in Guild Wars was a female because she had nice boobs, now I play a giant Norn beefcake, it’s Jeremy.Yep, still a girl…it’s MelI rolled an Asuran in Guild Wars 2 so that I could roleplay assholery, instead I just confuse the fuck out of mobs and occasionally myself, I’m Jared.What did you do this week?

No Show 10/2 because Dave and Mel will be together at Dave’s and Jared will be doing nice things for his wife’s birthday.Jared was on Episode 75 of 5 Wow Things to spread the word about the game to other gaming circles.
Format Tweak: Since we typically spend a lot of time in discussion over the news items, we’re going to remove the dedicated Discussion Topic and change it to a more Open discussion time. So, what will happen going forward is that we’ll put out a couple of calls each week on twitter for a topic or topics you’d like us to discuss, and we’ll discuss them. Additionally, if there are any topics that we don’t have a news item as an excuse to discuss them, we may also bring in topics of our own. For example, this week I wanted to talk about Crafting, but there wasn’t a newsy excuse to talk about Crafting, so we’ll talk about that later.

Launch Day/Headstart tips and tricks
Dave – Need to travel but don’t have a close waypoint? start running, but stow that weapon. A weapon can be wielded or stowed, where it is visible on the back or hip of the character. When a weapon is stowed, the character’s movement speed increases.http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/WeaponPersonal Waypoint – You can hold ALT and click on your minimap to make a personal Waypoint. It is viewed on your party’s map as well with your name highlighted as the waypoint!
VERY useful when trying to get your party to one place. You need to have explored the area before you can use your buddy’s waypoint.Instant cast spells can be cast while channeling another spell.
