Nightfall Preparations

[Dana Hawkeye]

How are you preparing for the release of Nightfall?

Are you preparing or not?

Are you taking through a Tyrian or Canthan character or are you going to start an Elonian one?

[Dana Hawkeye]

I am personally not going to make an Elonian character, not at least at the start anyway. I shall tackle Nightfall pretty much like I tackled Factions.

I shall be taking Dana Hawkeye into Elona, closely followed by Trudi Wotan.

The preparations I am making is by unlocking all of the Prophecies and Factions skills prior to Nightfall launch on October 27th. I have also been collecting various materials, dyes and runes, as certain ones may go up in price and demand as they did with Factions.

So that's my story, what's yours?

I plan on capping every Elite in both Tyria and Cantha with my Monk. I have already capped 40 Elites, but it will probably take a while to get to 180. I have all of the Monk Elites and I am almost done with all of the Necromancer Elites. I also may try to get the Protector of Tyria title, but I am not sure about that yet.

I have lots of materials stored up so that is all covered and I have 300 Plat in Storage for Nightfall.

I am not too sure if I will be taking my Monk through Elona first or make a new character. The Dervish was really fun to play but I am not too sure yet.

[Yozhura]

The only goal I have until Nightfall is to simply have fun.

When Nightfalll is here, I will probably complete it with my ranger first, and then start some new characters.

[Twisted Sister Jane]

Well, first a large cup of coffee. Then I will definitely start a dervish and perhaps some time after that the other character (oh what is his name?). As is usual with me, I will play both characters completely through Nightfall eventually. When I have time and am bored, I will perhaps then start to play my 8 other characters over in Nightfall little by little, and likewise my Nightfall characters over in Tyria and Cantha. But obviously with Nightfall, it will simply be impossible to keep up.

Another "task" I probably need to do some day is to recreate my Necro Emma on my main account, now that it is possible to purchase extra character slots. Hate to say goodbye to Emma, but it is getting annoying having her on a shared account with Kira. But the resurrection of Emma would be a good way for me to relive Tyria once again when I am ready for that.

Since there is so much to do, with new and old characters, the main thing is to have fun, and not worry about any goals at all.

As for preparations before nightfall, well, I have no plans really. I have little interest in titles, and since I play each of the professions relatively pure (that is, I hardly ever use a secondary profession skill, except for rebirth) I have no need to cap elite skills for my characters over those of the primary profession. I intend to just entertain myself with doing quests, getting my characters through both the Prophecies and Factions story, and that includes my new Warrior Ynes.

[Jaxx Skraxis]

Firstly I'd like to get a couple of titles finished on Jaxx as they are both very close to being done. Then I'd like to get my 'sin through Factions. Those will probably be more than enough to bring me up to Nighfall.

Of course if none of this happens then that's alright because I'll be having fun trying to get there.

As for Nightfall it's self, I think I will start a Paragon as I had fun trying them out during the PvP preview.

[Pass The Towel]

Well I've not even done Factions yet , forget about Nightfall

I'll be getting the game and probably taking caracters over rather than creating new ones as it just takes me too much time to develop a whole new character. Mainly I'll be getting the game so you can't all run off and leave me stranded in Tyria!

[Gifted]

I've created some Tyrian chars with my Nightfall related names so they will be reserved! Lots of people will try to create Devilishly Dervish (I think thats the name) and Paragon Where but they can't coz I already have 'em. lol.

Just something you might like to think about during the up and coming few days we have left.

[Zalis]

Pickled Dervish. Yum.

Feel free to use the name... I just thought it sounded funny.

[paleblade]

Well, my oldest toon (Pale Blade) will be the first through NF. Then I may try a Dervish.

[gworthox]

well,

as most of "The Blitzers" already know (but it may be unknown here, so I post it)

I will not Buy Nightfall! (at first at least)

Reason, is that im going to Be RL a lot busier (I know myself, if I have nightfall, I wont rest till I did it all), and seccondly: I have so much to do....im not ready with the two previous versions.

(I admit: Its a statement to Anet aswell: I don't like rushing, so please stop rushing those new versions ).

Im not leaving the lands....I will still be online, and always willing to team up for a FoW/UW/Deep/Urgoz/Sorrow/<fill-in-whatever>
Just try to dehab a little. And when RL is over (or at least the little busyness in it ), I will be going to explore a new land. (depending on the speed Anet will release new lands, it can be nightfall, but im afraid it will be day-light or whatever the new version (or its sucsessor) will be called.

[Lago Mortis]

You will be missed in Elonia, GworthoX!

But for sure, I'm looking forward to go with you through UW and FoW many more times. Once, we will probably be ably to do Servants and Four Horsemen, hehe!


Good luck with you real life!

UPDATE

I have now collected all the skills from Prophecies and Factions as part of my preparations for Nightfall. I have also now got 10 capture signets to start off and a few 'loose' skill points ...... which I hope to have more of. I would like 15 skill points on standby, but time is running out.

I have done some housekeeping and re-adjustment on my mules and storage facility in preparation as well.

I must admit, I am more prepared for Nightfall than I was for Factions.

Not long now to wait ............... Hmmmm, If only we had another week extra till release.

You could always delay playing it for a week

[Jersey Angel]

Star and I got our pre-order last night......

[Gifted]

Angel/Star..... any chance of borrowing that copy? lol.............. only for a few months! lol

[Zalis]

I'm busy not preparing for Nightfall.

If I get it, I'll likely get the Preorder at the last minute from Gamepot. Haven't decided yet.

[Gigs]

I did the ultimate preparation this afternoon . . .

I picked up my reserved Nightfall copy from the store. I got my pre order bonus pack 3 weeks ago. So now I'm all set to stop the darkness falling over Elona.

Grab your scythes and spears and join me in the crusade !

Hurray Scouts !

[Dana Hawkeye]

Well! I am as ready as I'll ever be ........ a bit more prepared with Nightfall than I was with Factions.

I have 20 capture signets ready, plus 16 loose skill points for other skills ....... ranger skill completion first priority though.

I reached all my pre-Nightfall goals including getting to the 9 million xp mark.

All I want now is for Amazon.co to deliver on time.

Good Luck all with the opening stages of the Nighfall Campaign.

[Volitar]

I'm all ready for Nightfall. I have money for the cap sigs to get any Elites I find during the campaign. Some of these new Monk Elites look great. Not much else for me to do. I bought a few rubies and saphirres just incase there is a price surge on them so I can make some money off of it.

Nightfall is arriving today from Gamestop.

Good luck everyone and have lots of fun in Nightfall!
