Welcome Deckscrubbers!

posted Aug 31, 11
As you all know, we cant have a ship with such renown as ours (cough cough) without it being kept in immaculate condition! So I would like to welcome the new deckscrubbers of Slice n Spice! oh and remind them that they missed a bit! grrr. We hope that you fit in well with the rest of the crew and that you feel free to natter away!

I would also like to announce that we now ( well I say now we did do it a few weeks back) have our guild recruitment thread up on the official Bioware forums and it can be found here..
http://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?p=8466755#post8466755

We are also fleshing out our background story for anyone who is interested in having a read of that! On top of that we are also constantly working and updating the website to make it just that bit better, so if you have any problems or see any changes you do not like then please shout about it!

Yes thats right! Star Wars: The old Repulic has released pre-order details and you can now get your pre-orders in for early access to the game! Amazon, Play and Game are the main UK retailers with only GAME selling the Collectors Edition (sold out and can only get in store now). Prices are pretty steep for all versions but what can we do about that! :(

So, we have a release date now, surely...... NO! there is still no info on how much the monthly subscriptions will cost and no info on the release date of the game, only that it will become available this year, like we didnt know that!

As for the guild, Stout n Sturdy/SnS.. Slice n Spice, we are hoping to be there in force (see what I did there....no? ok!) it is important that you all sign up to the guild on the offical star wars site (http://www.swtor.com/guilds/13872/slice-n-spice) this will mean that when the game goes live the guild will be automatically created and you will be in it.

below is a new video released at comic con, .. Enjoy






Well patch 1.2 has now been stuck on the test server so anyone interested can go take a look. I will just wait until it is on live server but there does seem to be yet again quite a few changes happening. Some highlights I have seen below (these are in testing and subject to change)

WARDROBE SLOTS (yeh I like to put the most important info up top :P )
* Wardrobe slots are now available for you to customize your character's look!
* All characters have access to the first wardrobe set (all armor slots) at level 1.
* Additional purchaseable wardrobe sets will allow you to save and swap multiple outfits quickly.
* You can only equip armor in wardrobe slots of the appropriate type for your calling - Plate for Warriors, Leather for Rogues, etc.
* Additional clothing items will be available in the future, including from new Clothier vendors in Sanctum and Meridian.

CRAFTING RIFTS
* Lures for Crafting Rifts and are obtained by completing the new weekly crafting quests in addition to the tradeskill-specific Plaque the quest awards.
* These Rifts drop raw materials, Augments, and other goodies for crafters.
* Reaching the final stages gives a chance of obtaining an additional plaque!
* Crafting Rift lures open a Rift of appropriate level for the zone. In addition, materials awarded are also based on the zone level where the Rift is opened.
* All levels of crafting Rifts give a chance for an additional plaque from the bonus stages, even below your character level.
* Bring your friends and spread the wealth!

GUILD QUESTS
* New weekly harvesting guild quests are available from Horace Shoe in Meridian, and Cardinal Gladewillow in Sanctum. These are taken and completed as an individual, but reward your guild.
* More standard guild quests have been added to the mix!
* Player-kill objective PvP quests now require more updates in general.
* Warfront PvP quests now update more consistently.

There are many more changes but I cant list them all, again another round of patching the classes as well as new things being added.

On other news, Star Wars and GW2 have been pretty quiet at the moment and there isn't a lot to report, SW is still doing their friday news feature so be sure to take a look at that every friday. The news from them isn't always great but the snippet below is of the Sith Warrior, I thought it was a nice update so will share with you all!


In Star Wars™: The Old Republic™, your character advances through the ranks, gaining experience, growing in power, and reaping the rewards of more advanced gear and skills.

Take a look at this Sith Warrior as he develops and amasses power in The Old Republic. While there are many paths to choose from, this example gives you a small glimpse of the armor and abilities a Sith Warrior can claim as he pursues his own destiny.

No news is good news!

Sorry it has been a while since my last news post but I assure you this is good news because it means Stout n Sturdy have firmly settled into Rift and are enjoying what we have seen so far. It is great to see some old faces back with us again, I am pleased you tracked us down and joined us.


On behalf of Stout n Sturdy I would like to give a warm welcome to our new recruits and members, they seem to be settling in very well and picked up the "Berate Gory” bat easily and with only a little encouragement!

 

Unfortunately no news is not always good, we continue to wait for SW to give us a release date and while small dribbles of news is ok… GIVE RELEASE DATE!!! Well they are taking their time; however they have now released some guild features and our very own little webpage on their site. Please make sure you have signed up to Biowares website then click to join our guild; this can be found here http://www.swtor.com/guilds/13872/slice-n-spice

 

As new members join more work is created for us and so we went in search of a new officer for rift and Dana unknowing what foul tasks shall be required of her, has agreed to help us and become an officer for Rift; any problems dump them all on her! <evil laugh>

 

Last but not least Congratulations to Aliana for being the guilds first level 50, a few more are very close following! You do realise that we will now expect you to be the Guru on just about everything, on the plus side you will have spare time to cook us more cookies.
