I have seen nothing on Dhuum's page yet, so I'm guessing he's not ready.

Wow, this is recent, but BOUT TIME. Seriously, I wish they'd have a legitimate CR. Since when have updates ever been this late? Did they JUST finish working out the bugs? Jeesh, I really hope its worth the piss poor communication.

Ah, ArenaNet finally caught on. Pity.

Another fun thing that got past their censors: ayahuasca can be included in character names, even though most drugs can not.

ish. Every time i change chars i have to log in again. And my friends list keeps dying.

As for the quest. Have to complete UW? Great. Speed clear or nothing as far as finding a group goes. Guess i'll pick nothing.

I keep having client crashes.

Crashed three times on the way to Ascalon, once when I attempted to change districts in ToA (I just clicked the district button, never got a chance to change).

I also keep getting kicked off the Friend's List. Seems whenever I was able to change towns it'd kick me off.

That aside, I'm excited to get down there and see what Dhuum is really like. I'm expecting pain. Lots, and lots of pain.

Thanks for confirming those client crashes and friends server disconnects. I'm having the latter problem as well. We'll let the team know about it and they will look into it.

You have to complete every quest in the UW to spawn Dhuum.

Says so in the Quest Log.

Excuse my pessimism (you must all be used to it by now, surely?), I've been looking forward to this quest, but I can't but fell that the fight with Dhuum will be one of two things:

1. Incredibly hard, meaning that once you get up to him after completeing all of UW (bleh) he absolutely buttslams you out of there, or...
2. Incredibly easy, to prevent the above from happening.

I'm hoping for the best, but I think I'll play the waiting game just a wee bit longer, to see my fears either put to rest or confirmed.

this new quest will live in infamy... "the day anet failed at bringing new content to guild wars and satisfying gamers". worst update in the game. worse then changing npc names for no reason after 3 years. i don't have the quest. what kinda shitter game is this. because i didn't log on for a few weeks i am denied access to some new UW content? nice joke shit sticks. gw is instanced and this isn't WoW where quests are temporary. this is GW. get your shit together. people been waiting years for some new UW and FOW content and this is how you repay back your loyal gamers. a matter of fact, when gw first came out and we did UW, i was like, "wouldnt that be cool if there was something behind this door?" fail.

edit: MUST CLEAR UW! lol??? failures. we already bored of this shit. ur bad. buy QA testers.

Once again..they are reinforcing uwsc. There should be some kind of stipulation that requires at least 5 different classes in the party or something to that effect. It's really a load of bull that so few people will actually get to be able to do this after all the halloween hype about it.

Here's all you are going to see for UW now:

"LFG Exp. Vale/Mts./Chamber/Pits/(etc.) Full UW+Dhuum!!"

Emphasis on Exp.
