Just downloading it, lloks like it's gonna be a while on my slow connection. Some interesting points to both factions... might see how they play before I make any permanent decision. That and it'd be interesting to hear what you guys think if you give it a shot....

our styles of play seem very similar cloud.  i was unaware.

i've just never understood the complaints about "grind" in any of the 30+ mmo's i've played.  if you don't want to grind, don't.  there's plenty of other things to do.  or go do something other than play video games.  problem solved.

Good to hear from you, Crowe.

I'm actually really glad everyone's doing ok. I know we all only know eachother through the internet and a lot of us from a now dead game but I'd still feel horrible if something happened to anyone.

You access this via the guy inside the 'The Twelve' towers.  Once you get them there they'll have an automatic GH caste on them.  There is no minimum level to access this L18+ area and you'll have an extra +4 morale bonus to your haggle skills.

They have armor and weapon pawn brokers next to each other so can sell you high end loot for a lot more and access to your bank, AH and other vendors.  They are all in one area which makes it easier then running from House D to House K to sell stuff at pawn brokers.

You might even find some nice stuff for sale there too.

So if you have no crew on at the time you cannot do anything?
