I don’t think there were enough people awake to actually “stress” the servers here in Europe, but no complaints here since that meant a brief time of lag-and-DC-free poking around. Still loving the raptor, though I did get just a hint of motion sickness this time. Pets are still noticeably unresponsive after a swap or after leaving Soulbeast. I did enjoy poking around very briefly with Holosmith, maybe that will actually get me to play engineer at last.

Yes, I have not liked engineer much since they removed the ability to throw turrets. I am hoping this will revive the profession.

Apologies for thread drift but I completely concur.

I am European and I tested it for like 1.5 hours. No problems, only 5.5 hours of sleep though

I had a blast to finally try the Scourge in PvE environment, was a lot of fun!

Was it just me or did the scourge seem awfully squishy in PVE? Maybe it was just my build but I am now rethinking rolling one in 3 weeks.

Friday now so hopefully you Europeans can get some extra sleep today!

played around a bit with a tb scourge never went below 20k life only the dmg department seemed a bit lacking, guess because the mobs had no boons to corrupt

You are right, had the same feeling, something was off. I felt much more tanky in HoT. Everything else was good though.

1:00 am test in my country… on a weekday. Yes very stress test.

I demand 2nd round at better times during this weekend!

This time with access to golem at Special forces training area. So we can test numbers and give some proper feedback instead of:
This doesnt look pretty! / This is too pretty! / This FEELS off

This is crucial to whether I’m buying PoF or not.

You do realize the point of a stress test is not for us to decide if we want to buy it/test builds but for them to check the load on the region’s servers, right?
