WildStar Wednesday: The Luminai

This week’s WildStar Wednesday post shines some light on a newly revealed race, the Luminai. The Luminai are an alien/human hybrid that, in my opinion, kind of resemble space elves. They’re tall, skinny, have pointed ears, everything you would expect of an elven race. They are associated with the Dominion, though at this time it is not known if they will be a playable race.

Along with a brief description of the race we are treated to a little lore as well. A few prominent Luminai are discussed, as well as a little bit of their history. They are a powerful race, holding high positions of nobility and power within the Dominion. It’s almost assured that players from both factions will be running into them over the course of the game, even if they are not playable themselves.

WildStar Wednesdays:

Remember that teaser image that was posted on the WildStar site a few days ago? Well we finally got a chance to see what it was referring to, and damn it is glorious.

This week we got a look at the Path system. In addition to choosing a class for you character you will also choose a Path. Now your Path will not affect your combat in any way, but it will give you access to missions specific to that Path. These missions are completely optional but promise to offer some of the coolest content in the game.

Each Path looks like it will offer a bunch of fun, unique content that is sure to make the decision between them difficult. Continue reading for a list of all the different types of missions each class will be able to undertake, and let us know which one looks the coolest in the comments below. Continue reading →

Closed Beta 2 Patch Notes Revealed

It’s Wednesday and that means it’s time for some new WildStar news. This week we get a look at the patch notes for the upcoming round beta testing. Invites for this round of testing should be going out this week, so if you have signed up to participate in the beta keep an eye on your inbox to see if you are one of the lucky few who get invited in.

During the last round of beta testing the patch notes were leaked almost immediately, hence the reason the developers went ahead and just gave the patch notes to everyone up front. Seems like they figured that if players are going to get a hold of the information anyway it might as well come from the source. Keep in mind that if you decide to look through the notes you may stumble across a spoiler or two, so read the notes at your own risk.

Video: DevSpeak-Movement

For those unfamiliar with WildStar’s DevSpeak videos let me give you a quick run down of what they are. The game developers (or Devs if you will) make a video that talks (or speaks. See where I’m going with this?) about some of the features in their upcoming game. Got that? Good, let’s move on.

This time we get a thrilling video that introduces us to an amazing feature of WildStar; movement! Okay, I realize it may not sound that exciting. However the video itself is actually pretty funny, and it does give us a look at some of the unique abilities players will be able to use to get around when their exploring the world.

Give it a look for yourself, and let us know what you think in the comments below.
