I made a new character for 80% of the test and then went back to my first character. We wandered around Snowden Drifts [Norn's 15~25 area], but my lvl 18 and 20 friends starting instantly dying once we reached the lvl 23+ hearts. One of the Gold Hearts is a shooting range with these huge crossbows. My gf got stuck in one during the last minutes of the test, lole.
.... I'm happy I got to see some Kodans. o(^▽^)o
Also, remember the reason we were allowed to play for 7 hours or so ― hardware tests!
We were allowed to use our previous BWE characters for this test because they were using the same dev build. We don't know for sure if they'll open up Asura/Sylvari for next BWE, but I don't think they will. It's easier for them to work out the kinks in 3 starting areas instead of 5.
I guess it'll depend on when the game is released if they want to let us try Asura/Sylvari. :3

I wanted my first main character to be an Asair Engineer, but I guess I won't be able to do that until the game actually opens up for real, so I'm using a temporary character--a Charr Guardian, while my friend went with a Charr Warrior.Next BWE, definitely try out the Engineer. It'll take a while to unlock a decent amount of skill points to see their real potential, but they're a very quirky class.

- Did any of you guys get put into overflow servers?
- How many of you guys got stuck at 95%?
- Lag spikes?
- etc, etc kind of hard to tell when a lot of NA people were probably at work/school for most of it.
