Who thought end of Preview was bad just getting an err 7 or booted back to a city
I reckon we should have got some form of entertainment or a killing spree.

What I wished was that tons of snowballs start rolling around in every zone and killing everyone.

Feel lucky...I got sent to Island Shehkah, then got to watch the beginning cinematic of NF again, then sent to Chahbek Village, after 3 load screens.

I half expected them to do something seeing as this is the last time (supposedly) that there would be a retail preview weekend for a game.

Oh well.

Spent the last couple minutes in the Eye, about fifty people all dancing, it was a decent enough ending. Was hoping for a destroyer death trap, but oh well.

I had my fireworks ready to go when the mass killings started - now I guess I'm just going to empty them from my inventory.

Oh well, I've been here since about 2 moths after release and this is the first ending I have been at - would have liked to finally have seen something instead of just read about it the next day.

The most amusing thing was the district I was in got *real* quite the minute or so before we all err-7's after a lengthy a heated discussion on what was going to spawn and kill us all. The *really* amusing part was that not a single person predicted mass err=7's

And, lastly - why didn't my dervish get to at least do the intro part of Nightfall? I thought it would be amusing to be able to run around as a level 20 and four hench. I did enjoy seeing my Dervish with Vabbian armor pointing with Koss along with Olias and Jin standing around in the background while talking to Kormir.

They never said there would be a finale, plus it would have been far too early in the morning for most people to attend.

Imagine if you got kicked back into Pre-Searing! Serious implications!
(On top of that, 3 days later you would be banned for exploitation haha)

rofl if I was really worried over whether or not people liked my build I would of just stated I was kicked back to Shing Jea training grounds

EDIT: not to mention I posted the pic for the location, not the build

Always gotta test all the interesting builds, that's what makes the game fun

And if you were kicked back to Pre there would be all kinds of spam from people in the Pre community. would had been hilarious imo Dont think they can ban you If it was thier problem for sending you back anyways, so that would be cool.

I was in frostmaws dungeon, it let me play it out till I finished at 12:30. Altho I made the mistake of killing the main worm before the last henchie worm, and died just as it did. Then the chest popped but I couldn't open it and get the prize, It sucked. They need to put the res timer back in there lol.

I wasn't able to be on for the finale, although I feel pretty good about the fact that I reached rank 2 with the Norn and completed the quests for the 3 elite Norn aspect skills (with having to work all weekend). I guess the Norn faction grind will begin on Friday.

I have wanted to go back and do a pre-Searing character. How long/how high can you level there and not be accused of evildoing?

You can hit level 20 in presearing now - they even get a title: Legendary Defender of Ascalon.

Think DEFAULT! They sent you to the one place you could find your way from no matter how far in the game you were, the beginning.

*at 11:59*
Gwen: So...want to do something to celebrate the closing of the preview? Something...special?
Hero: Sure, what do you have in mind?
Gwen: How about *in arousing tone*
*Clock strikes midnight and you get ported back to presear, then walk out the door*
Hero: Gwen?
Gwen (younger): Who are you?

Hahaha...I just couldn't resist typing that. Too bad that you guys just got mass 007s. Good thing I didn't stay up late.

I was really hoping that the Lake Monster would erupt from it's icy prison and carry Gwen about, destroying the Northern lands.

But alas. Just a warp back to Ascalon.
