    Welcome to episode #251 of the the podcast celebrating the Alea Iacta Est gaming community, the die has been podcast. This is Mkallah: To my left is Alludra: – (Hey, AIE, I think you’re awesome). And right over there cleaning up the mess, we have Tetsemi: (I decided that a Galaxy Far, Far away needed Spreadsheets ). This week we are joined by special guests Max and Sema who are here to talk to us about AIE in SWTOR Welcome!

    Ok, we’ll be digging into SWTOR shortly, but first, let’s cover this week’s news…

    AIE News

    Community

    It’s never too early to plan a meetup and Mkallah has started a thread in the Community section discussing Meetups for the Warcraft Movie. I know the Phoenix contingent will be getting together for this (something about reserved seats, etc etc) and may tie in a dinner before or after depending on the schedule.

    Also, speaking of stuff outside of games, join us in Rocket Chat for that Greenwall experience outside of games. http://aie.community Use your Umami log on and password to log in. There is a Windows, iOS, and Android app, so you can get to it where you want it.

    Imperium Ludi

    Black Desert Online (BDO) BlackDesertOnline.com has launched and Lord Senile has posted a thread about the Guild Info. Right now the guild has a very low starting cap on members and the folks that are in are working hard to raise that member cap, so please bear with us while they work on it. In the meantime, if you are playing, please add Dethode to your friends list.

    It’s a beautiful fantasy-based MMO with a big learning curve — feels like an old school MMO. Has been up in Korea for 2-3 years.
    Action-based combat
    Classes
    Warrior, Ranger, Berserker, Valkyrie
    Sorceress, Wizard, Witch
    Coming: Blader, Plum
    Some fun features:
    Auto run/path to objective, NPC searcher
    Quests to make your way in the world—killing mobs to level (mostly)
    Fishing is the early money maker
    Lots to the game:
    Crafting/trading/gathering
    Knowledge? Seems like gossip.
    You have many alts, and many workers and a network of “nodes”
    Dethode’s workers are everywhere.
    Dulfy.net already has some guides
    NOMADS

    WoW

    The blizzard pet battle team has decided that epic pet battle stones are not to be a thing! Great news for pet battlers as we will not have to farm up 700+ stones! Yay!
    http://us.battle.net/wow/en/forum/topic/20742364802?page=20#398

    The latest 6.2.3 hotfixes are out and they are all about pvp changes, with ability rebalances and some minor asharan bug fixes.

    FFXIV

    Neopheonix is looking for raiders for Alexander, the newest final fantasy raid, on tuesdays from 6-8 pst. If you are interested, let him know on the forums, in game, or just drop in! They are going to be in mumble and the invite is wide open.

    Jasmine wanted everyone to know how up to date our housing decor is! Anais is really on the ball when it comes to keeping things up with the current events/seasons. We just got a really neat music player in the house that lets us set what music folks hear when they’re inside.

    SWTOR

    We’ll discuss SWTOR more in the Game News section, but we did want to highlight that Tetsemi and a few others have created spreadsheets to help you track your crew skills. At first glance, crew skills may not seem like a focus, but trust me, having some crafted gear while leveling as well as a sense of advancement helps round out your character. It’s something SWTOR does very well and helps enhance your play through the game.

    Also Escape Pod Cast episode #132 is up on the feed. Max and Sema discuss all things 4.3 on the Public Test Server (PTS).
