WildStar: Reloaded |OT| Full Steam Ahead!

Right as I decided on esper and began looking at AMPs, there's a message about the servers going down soon. Good times.
There was no lag or anything!

Lets just hope that it only take the designated 30 minutes and doesn't mess anything up! Lets synchronize our watches and cross our fingers!
 
Alright logging off while the server maintenance happens. There was no lag while I was playing this morning.

Question: Is there a way to change character appearance (face, body type, etc) later in the game? Or am I stuck with the character I have?

You can pay a lot of money to an NPC to change. I don't know about other zones, but there's one standing in Woodhaven in Celestion.

There are appearance change vendors but it's pretty expensive.
 
The game was working flawlessly this morning and just now before the maintenance hit. I hope we are in the final stages of fixing this issue. Zoning seemed to be working fine as well.
 
Hmm. Debating re-rolling my level 6 and playing through the initial zone again then.

debating? level 6 takes like half an hour, you start at 3 if you skip the tutorial
 
Do you really start at 3? Haha OK, guess I'll re-roll then.

make sure to check the skip tutorial box choose Veteran (they changed it for f2p I forgot lol) in character creation
 
Just make sure to choose Expert when choosing your experience level (Not New to MMO's or New to Wildstar) when creating a character,

The only downside is you don't get to choose your starting area but you skip the tutorial and are instantly a level 3. Your race seems to determine which of the two starting areas you begin in.
 
So this green wave effect in Everstar Grove is annoying my girlfriend, but why don't I have the effect too? She has the debuff but not me and yet we started exactly the same time at the same place. For what I've read it's supposed to be a story-thing but I don't have it for some reason?

You can't pick your starting zone, but you can use the nearby teleporter to go to the other one.
 
Installed overnight and played an Esper for about an hour before maintenance came around. I understand about 50% of what I'm doing but it's fun so far. I'll probably try out Medic for the first 5-10 levels as well.

Between Esper and Medic, is one more capable of soloing than the other?

Edit: Easy enough. Then I'll just go with whichever class sticks for me.

There's no class in Wildstar that can't solo effectively, because every single class can be played as DPS.

I've only been making Cassians and Humans so far. I don't find any of the other races cool. :/

Well, if you go Exile, it'll plop you down in the Northern Wilds as a Human, which leads to Algoroc, which is one of the best zones I've seen in an MMO.

You can't pick your starting zone, but you can use the nearby teleporter to go to the other one.

I keep forgetting there's jump points between the two.
 
How does your character look like so far?
Here's mine

Alright so who's online in the Entity guild right now. I have a Dominion and Exile character; happy to jump on whichever to get a guild invite!
 
any in NA with a exile guild invite? Talya Vexx, gonna give esper a go to compare to my medic
 
Yep I was doing great before the restart. This should have been called Open Beta with progress saved and the launch should have been much later. :(
