This week Carla, Drew, Seamus, and special guest Joe discuss the unusual gear progression system, the Strain Drop, the first month of Wildstar, and of course, The Secret World.

Ethical or Profitable?

SITUATION 3: You see that someone posted an auction for way less than the item’s vendor value. Do you:

* (Ethical): Buy it and send it back to them with a note explaining how they could better make money.

* (Neutral): Keep scrolling, and pray for their fiscally-irresponsible souls.

*  (Profitable): Buy it and sell it to the nearest vendor. #LearnToReadTooltips
