Beta is up, but you cant expect ppl will jump all over it when there is NO SUPPORT whatsoever.
Also, there were no goals set, simple "test it" is not enough! There need to be specific tasks and so people know what to test, there need to be porting npcs, free epics vendor, free potions off all kinds (cheals, etc), eazy rezzing... Basically anything and everything that will help people not waste their time but actually test what needs to be tested.

And give everyone bard speed [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

There is plenty of support to be had if people would log in and ask for it. There are a number of people with guide status that can port people to any zone (save Sleepers/Tov), summon corpses, GM res, and move people around or reset mobs.

The Gnomes in Nro sell thurgadin gate sticks, res sticks, corpse summon sticks, bind sticks. The Gnomes also sell the dropped spells.

OOC is global, so if you need help on beta just ask. There is probably someone on that can help you.

Heal potions and epic vendors, I can't help you with. You can box all you want though.

^this.

I logged on beta for the first time today and was waiting for boat. I asked in OOC if boats were working and immediately had a response offering a summon/port.

Beta is nice when you're camping a long drop on live. But there is only so much you can test solo.

This is exactly what I was going to say here. The "everybody who's not on beta is LAZY and can not HELPING" argument is flawed. There's literally nothing I can do in Velious that everybody else can't do much, much easier, and hasn't done a billion times already. And as someone pointed out, all the raid mobs are down, so it's not like we can test the encounters to make sure AoW isn't pathing weirdly or whatever.

I'm in Khanable. Lemme know when you are ready. I'll copy over either Cleric/SHaman/Ranger and borrow lots of goodies to copy over so can play some interesting content. Lemme know what class to bring.

As expected, smug swish response to a velious beta thread.

There is a lot to test on beta right now... Vendors, drops, pathing, quests etc. The more people testing, the quicker Velious will be released. A few of us have been on there constantly and a lot is getting done, but there is so much left to do.

big probs to this man as every night I have been on Beta he is as well [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Biggest issue I am having with Beta right now is being a Melee is miserable. Can we please please please get the GM stick vendors in Thurg as well as the spell vendors.

I need to restock on supplies to go out and test but its impossible for my druid or melee character to get back to North Ro without waiting on a boat ( srsly?) or begging non-existant wizards.

to Milburn: I have seen Swish on the beta server a few times, whenever he logs on he tells everyone "Hello"
