A Much Delayed Pax Unplugged Recap (Feat. Jessica and Andrew from Gameosity) – Boards & Swords #187
https://boardsandswords.com/blog/bs187
Chris & Philip decided to take a break from the holidays, but its a new year and time to talk about Pax Unplugged! To help Chris out, Andrew & Jessica Fisher from Gameosity are on the show!
NOMADS
Lost Ark
Lost Ark is a free-to-play game that pairs the best of ARPG combat and MMO depth to create a vast, vibrant world with thrilling fights, endless customization, and endless adventure.
Launching on Feb 11, 2022, this “Diablo-esque” style action role playing game with an isometric/top-down view, it was originally released in South Korea in 2018, published by Smilegate. It will be published by Amazon Games for the NA release.
Though it is free-to-play, founders’ packs are available for purchases through Steam and Amazon. These packs confer the usual perks, including a 3 day head-start for players on Feb 8, 2022. https://store.steampowered.com/app/1599340/Lost_Ark/
AIE is currently gauging interest in the game. If you intend to play, please contact @Durus or leave a comment in the AIE discord’s channel nomads with #lostark. Server selection and guild details will be released once that information is available.
Website: https://www.playlostark.com
Diablo 3
Season 25 “Lords of Hell” is live (12/10/2021)
Anniversary event “Darkening of Tristram” is live as of Jan 3, 2022 and will conclude at the end of the month. Explore the Cathedral, event dungeon, and acquire anniversary rewards.
If you would like an invite to the Clan or Community, please ask in the AIE discord’s nomads channel using #diablo3
Valheim
Valheim server has been shut down for now but may be available in the future if there is more interest in the future. A copy of the world is available and can be downloaded from the location pinned in the Valheim channel.
WoW
WITT Raid Team is doing an ALL DRUID fun run of Sanctum of Domination (Normal difficulty) on Jan 22 at 8pm Eastern. They are also considering All Monk and All Paladin runs. There is a sign up link in the AIE Discord – Raid Team News channel for anyone interested. Gustytail will be there!
Noob Raid had it’s 2nd run of 2022 and Dankinia’s Floor Tanking score increased to 3 deaths. Next week the plan is to skip to the final bosses of Sanctum. We’re coming for you Kel’Thuzad and Sylvanas!
Behind the Curve has room for more raiders. Anyone interested please check the Raidteam Recruitment channel.
WoW Classic
Mount Hijal and Black Temple opening on January 17th.
Still a (half guild) raid group every Saturday evening, going strong
SWTOR
In Game News, the Public Test Server is up for the time being with no announcement about taking it down. That’s good news if you wanted to work toward the Test Server achievements which earn you rewards in game, like a holographic log mount. As far as we know, 7.0 The Legacy of the Sith is still scheduled for release on 2/15/22.
For the guild, December was a cozy month of snowballs and Operations and wookiee hugging. As we roll into the second half of January 2022, though, it’s going to heat up. It’s Total Galactic War! That means that while guildies play SWTOR, the guild accumulates points that could win us a planet. This will be a serious effort and the competition for a planet is steep. If you want to help out there are several things you can do in just a few minutes every day that would add substantially to our point total. Drop by the SWTOR discord channel for specifics. If your character is not in the guild yet, hop in on Sunday or Monday to get in before reset for your points to count. If you character is brand new, not to worry. You will get SUBSTANTIAL points for those early levels. It really is for everyone.
Come join us for some pew pew and some (show off light sabers here) – Vrummmummmmm
FVISH!
FFXIV
Map night has returned! We’re back and hitting up the new treasure dungeon, the Excitatron 6000, every Saturday at 9:30 pm eastern. Check the pins in the ffxiv channel for more info.
Our lovely community member Zoot is also running mount farms on Friday at 8pm eastern. Level requirement depends on what is being run, but it’ll generally adapt to whoever wants to come. Don’t be intimidated if you’ve never done EX trials before, unsynced they’re not too hard and we’ll be happy to have you and help you through it!
ESO
MFN’s have resumed after the holiday break. We’ve spend the first two of the year vanquishing world bosses in various zones.
We also jumped to our death and helped a member get the Slaughter Fish achievement.
The Daedric War Celebration runs from January 20th – Feb 1st so our MFN’s will be focused on doing the dailies for the event tickets and killing bosses.
We plan to do more trials on nights we have 12 people online for MFN.
There will be a Global Reveal Event for ESO on January 27th at 12pm PST. They are going to give us a peek at the upcoming Chapter and DLCs that will be released this year. Tuning into the show on Twitch will earn you a new coral crab pet and a crown crate though Twitch drops as long as you have your accounts linked.
STO
This is going to be a big year for the fed fleet. Why? Well, we are closing in on a lot of the Tier V unlocks (highest unlock) for the starbase.
Military: 15 projects to go
Engineering: 38 projects to go
Science: 41 projects to go
While yes, you can only do 1 project every 20 hours (1 day lets say) that means we should be working on the big unlock project for Military in 3 weeks or less. This will then free up resource requirements and hopefully make it more likely we are triggering daily, but even still means 2 months we should have engineering done and 3 months science should be done, if not way sooner.
LOTRO
After a break for the holidays (and Maellung needing to heal in RL) SNL returned this past Saturday. The first fight of the new raid is coming to Bullroarer this week. Treebeard opened up Mines of Moria a couple weeks ago. The ill omens event is being postponed until maybe later this year so they can focus on the rewards. And lastly session play is bugged at the moment and will be fixed in the patch this week.
And with that, let’s talk about the fun and games we had over our break!
