DLC achievement details - Some new info

Or, people could play arenas who want to do that. While everyone including those who buy the DLC also get to throw down in new types of Ark falls as well as the returning sieges. Which will pull people from doing just non stop arena matches.

Not saying this DLC will be the most epic thing ever, but lets be real, its adding alot and really any diversity is a good thing. As for PVP, well thats a story, for another time.

This is going to be great, I can't wait. All of us in our own instances doing solo arena missions that aren't group-able, trying to finish all of them and get lackluster charge weapon items, meanwhile the rest of the game world will be even more empty, separating what little in-game community was left until next DLC or players get bored with arenas, longer PVP queues.

Wait a minute...

I actually came back to say you're right, and what really stands out is the fact that the Volge Sieges aren't even mentioned in here. That concerned me because I was really hoping that with the Volge emergencies and the coming sieges they would factor into the story quests.

Then I remembered these are just the trophies/achievements for your Gamerscore or PSN profile, not in-game pursuits, so there is that to consider.

Looking back at the trophies that were added with DLC packs for DCUO for example, they were pretty slim and were basically, "Complete this mission" and "Complete this instance" but that covered hours of content.

As Lt Mira said...

I read the last sentence in the voice of that Puppet Show Narrator found in Hailol over in RIFT... >.>

And basically the only thing PvP is getting content-wise is a new map which hasn't had much details revealed yet. And I'd guess maybe a pursuit tied in with it for those who buy the DLC (since new pursuits are going to be purchase-exclusive).

Those first 5 pursuits are named after Castithan caste/Liro. Yuke & Shanje are the lowest/highest Liro.

"Thorn" doesn't look like a Castithan word though, should likely be Zwazhe Liro?

"Thawandaye" is the indirect form of "Thawandayo" - or casteless. Lowest of the low and outside of Castithan society. Criminals, rebels etc.

Is it the indirect form though or did we just learn the word wrong? So thawandayo is "the casteless" and thawandaye is just "casteless"? I thought for a second it might have been "casteless one" but that is yafyo, one who has no marusha within mibuniro. We really need David Peterson to release a compendium of vocabulary.

Not surprised, they've kept real quiet about the story part, it's probably going to be short and last only like a half hour. Trion is afraid of story with Defiance it seems. The less is more approach is what they're good at.

I think it's more they were unsure how far they could go. While he is part of the SyFy side, Kevin Murphy mentioned this in one of his interviews from Comic-Con that now that they know what they can do, they can do more and spoke about the game. He also said that Brian Alexander who does the lore managing was also assigned to work "Full time" with Trion to make for better crossover content because they "could've been more meaningful" and they want the storylines to intersect better as well.

The 'casteless group' as a whole is Thawandayo, could almost call it an actual Liro, but that would annoy other upstanding Casithan. An individual who is casteless is yafyo - "He is yafyo...one of the casteless Thwandayo.". The adjectivie Yavi can be used to describe something as being of or belonging to the casteless "These yavi knuckles are suited to massaging rocks" for example.

For nouns Vocative forms *tend* to end with -o or -u. Direct are usually -a. Indirect often end in -e or -i.

Vocative form is the one that is used as the base in the dictionaries, as you would use vocative form as an answer to "What is that".

Gives me some hope, but colour me pessimistic with how they've been delivering things. Still have my reservations.

Actually pretty cool bit of info here... Did not know all that.
