I'm all set to stress the hell out of this game like a fat woman in sweatpants. I'll be on at 12:01 today.

I'll be making my DnD Trio again.

we usually go on wayfarer...but expect that one to be down often...so we will have characters on at least one of the other servers.

Oh and I will be on at 12:01 pst as well as I have half the day off today to burn of banked overtime.

and yes traps are downright nasty in this game....they can kill a whole party in seconds if they are not paying attention.

if you don't want to play a rogue though don't...if you want to play something else I'd be more than happy to play the rogue...they are fun to play

I tend to prefer melee combat classes, so it'll be either a rogue or a fighter. I'll be trying them out this morning to see what I like. I should be on all day.

I'll be playing from about 6PM EST Wednesday until about 1PM EST Friday afternoon and stop to sleep and eat only. I'll be stressing this thing as that is only time I'll be able to play. I will be in Misc channel of Vent. Drop in.

Sweet...I may start a rogue tonight to help everyone get caught up a bit, with our group we should easily be able to do some of the bigger quests tonight.

I actually started a Palladin today. So far, so good. A lot more fun to play than the pallies in WoW :P

There's a 3rd and final stress test now for DDO. I don't think I want to play though, I don't want to buy the game and already be sick of it. I'm waiting until release.

Oh, and was anyone going to participate in that Head Start Event?

Yeah I'm going to skip the last stress test as well as I've played through all the starter quests 20 times now, but anyone who has pre-ordered has access to the head start. Apparently any guild with more than 10 members during the head start gets everyone in the guild a helm to start off with.

P.S. was playing some of the level 5-7 quests the last couple of nights with my lvl 5 fighter in Beta and gotta say they are pretty cool, fought drow and some hill giants in one last night.

So are you settling on playing a fighter in release? I'm still undecided. I like being the melee tank, so I was thinking rolling a pally. But then again, I saw how extremely useful rogues are, and how much a party *can* be gimped if they don't have one. I guess it'll come down to which is needed more since I have no problem playing either.
