PAX East 2011: Taral V Playthrough – Fansite Edition!

Yesterday, we were able to kick off day 2 of PAX East with a bang – a full playthrough of Taral V!  Even better, we were able to do it with peeps from other great TOR fan sites!

Our group consisted of:

• Pete from Darth Hater, who played the Jedi Knight Guardian – off-tank and DPS
• Eric Musco from TOROcast helmed the Smuggler Scoundrel – healer and comedy relief
• Zach Brown from Mos Eisley Radio was on the Jedi Consular Sage – brought the DPS through the Force
• And lastly myself, Lethality, played the Trooper Vanguard – rumbling, stumbling, bumbling, tank

Needless to say, the pressure was on! Luckily, we were able to make it all the way through to the end of the demo without any wipes!  We had a great time…

Darth Hater has already posted Pete’s playthrough as the Jedi Knight, and I believe TOROcast and Mos Eisley Radio will be doing the same – so you should be able to view the entire Taral V Flashpoint demo from all four class perspectives.

Enjoy! (We sure did!)

PAX East: SWTOR Community Cantina!

If you’re headed to PAX East in Boston in a few weeks, we’ve got one more must-do item to add to your list: The SWTOR Community Cantina!

Come put a face to a name that you might be familiar with from the official Star Wars™: The Old Republic™ forums, or mix and mingle with your favorite writers from sites such Massively, Curse, Darth Hater, Mos Eisley Radio, TOR Syndicate, and Corellian Run Radio. Oh, and we’ll be there too!

When and where you ask? The event will be held at Boston’s Times Irish Bar on Friday, March 11th at 7:00pm EST. The Times is located at 112 Broad Street in downtown Boston, just a short cab ride from the convention center.

This is a community-wide meetup, so if you have friends that might just be hearing about TOR, being them along too, the more the merrier! Although, be on the lookout for Rodians in dark corners.

Also, a big shout out to Darth Hater for spearheading the effort in pulling this together.

We hope to see everyone there!
