As we creep ever closer to the launch of the Great Tyrian Adventure Season 4, I will be collecting Exotics, Precursors, 20-Slot and 18-Slot bags to build up our cache of loot. I'm not opposed to crafting up a few legendaries to give. We still have a Dawn on hand that can get upgraded as well as a few lesser precursors. But I would need someone that has the world completion tokens to be able to help craft these. I still don't have world completion.
We will also be spending Fridays mapping out a path for the new adventure. These events will be traveling around fighting world bosses, temples, and doing mini-dungeons.
I've registered GreatTyrianAdventure.com and will begin migrating the GTA over to it's own site. The new Great Tyrian Adventure will use the Gaiscioch Passport system instead of the Sanctum of Rall system. This should help tie it to our Magazine and other events nicely. I'm hoping that the Passport will help build readership and viewership of our livestreams and magazine while providing a singular platform for launching Public Community Events in the future. With a Rewards management system, participation claiming system, and account management system all being uniform across all of our media sites, it will help reduce the time needed to build out these events.
I know I have a lot of cleanup to do on the SOR site. Many of the features I built for the site are no longer useful and at this point can be removed or hidden. I want to change the SOR site to accomplish 2 things.
I think Sanctum of Rall has an unique ability to recruit more players and guilds under the concept of a server without politics, a server without drama. Nothing but the fights. We are one of the few places in Guild Wars 2 where no matter what happens we aren't punished for it, we don't have to play the server politics game, and we can play in T1-3 at any given time. It's a great place for fight guilds who are tired of transferring over and over again due to server implosions.
I think if I can get the messaging right we might be able to grow Sanctum of Rall again. We still get traffic to the site but it's largely unused by the registered members. I'm also going to open it up to Captcha registration so no secret word will be needed.
Please welcome our newest members to our Guild Wars 2 family.

We are but one month away and building up our prizes for the Telara Saga Season 3. Throughout this 10 week event players will earn a wealth of achievements and special loot. We will be unlocking the full set of Great Hunts, Nightmare Rifts, Strongholds, and even taking down some world bosses. Here's our tentative outline:
Minimum Level: 5
The inaugural kickoff event, this event is open to everyone to ask questions, get involved and win some sweet prizes. The first chapter allows players of any level to join in the fun as we take down Nightmare Rifts. We will be traveling to Stillmore for our first event and form 3 raids to start. 1 for levels 1-49 and 2 for levels 50+. Each group will get the achievement for killing the Baron. The lower level raid will spawn raid rifts then a nightmare rift while the high level groups will speed clear River of Souls and Greenscale for achievements and a mount. After completion of the raid all groups will join forces and drive the nightmare rift as high as possible.
Minimum Level: 48
In chapter two we take on each of the dragon cults gaining achievements, dimension items, and content unlocks. Agenda includes unlocking Hunt Rifts, Great Hunt Rifts, Stronghold, and World Boss achievements. By completing all 6 weeks all players will have earned a minimum of 6 hard to get Dimension trophies.
Minimum Level: 64
In our final part of the Telara Saga season 3 we assault the comet of Ahnket. We will be targeting Major Rifts, Zone Events, Onslaughts, Planar Assaults and Fortresses.
We are actively accepting donations of items worth more than 20P. Send them directly to Foghladha for donation credit. Please do not send items worth less than 20P as we do not have the inventory or vault space for them.
Highly desired items: Orphiel Farwind (Dimension Item), Regulos (Dimension Item), Gold & Purple Dimension Keys, REX, and Starfall Prophecies Standard Edition (Loot Item).

For those of you new to Gaiscioch and new to RIFT, I wanted to point out our Marketplace. By participating in events, filling work orders and donating to the community you will earn Family Vault Credits. These can be used on the Marketplace and Loot Vault to request certain items. From bags to weapons and armor to crafting materials anything that is crafted or gathered is acquirable in the Gaiscioch Marketplace for Family Vault Credits.
Be sure to head over to the Marketplace and order some gear or supplies.

Any of those legacy members reading this probably just shot whatever they were drinking through their nose. Don't worry, Foghladha doesn't raid, I wander with Style *wink*. In our first week out we managed to complete 3/5 of Mount Sharax and in our second week we toppled the first boss in Mind of Madness (T3 Raid). We are actively working our way to the Tier 3 20-Man raid Mind of Madness. In the meantime we plan to fill the gaps in our Raiding profile. We will be taking on various raids on Monday Nights @ 6PM PT in January.
We plan on keeping this event light hearted and free of people yelling at each other. This is a casually fun romp through raiding content. Right now I'd like to see a full raid, So far we've been defeating 20-man content with 15 and those extra 5 people would go a long way to seeing these bosses fall. As we all level up to level 70 I'm certain we'll be able to burn through a lot of these quickly.
That said, I don't want these to turn into a frustration so if we can't beat a boss in 5 attempts we will change raids. We'll come back to the boss later, with better gear and more experience. The key to Wandering with Style is keeping it fun for everyone and nobody likes losing over and over again. There is plenty of content to clear, plenty of achievements to have, and plenty of shiny loot to collect. No need trading trash loot for grey hair.

Woo hoo! This was one of the things I spoke with Matt Firor about when I was out there and he said they definitely were working on it but wanted it to be awesome and unique if they were to go live with it. I suspect we'll be in for a treat. There’s also rumors floating about regarding a true ESO expansion that might be announced this year. Not sure how true the rumors are and nobody at ZeniMax has verified that it's something on the horizon, but if there is something we will likely hear about it at PAX East. Matt Firor did say that there was something big coming to ESO but he wasn't at liberty to share it yet. So cross those fingers.
I suspect in 2017 we're going to see some slow but steady growth in this chapter. As new features begin rolling in and ESO builds up on the base it has fortified I suspect players will begin slowly drifting back in. ESO still has a great core of players keeping it alive that are truly passionate about the game. Even if we gain a few more of those passionate folks it would go a long way to building up our charter.

Be sure to check out our latest stories and gaming news at: gsch.info/mag
We've put more than 2 years into streaming the latest and greatest games to our audience. Through experimentation we've found that our viewers enjoy watching our community events and thus we've migrated many of our primetime livestreams to cover these. Here's a look at what you can see on our livestreaming channels.
We are also doing some more specialty shows that are "On Demand" like Guild Wars Adventures and Gaiscioch Presents. These will be scheduled when needed and be targeted at a "after broadcast" viewership on YouTube.
While 2016 was one hell of a rough year for gaming, for civilization, for celebrities, and for many of us, the year 2017 is shining on the horizon filled with hope, anticipation, and excitement. Hopefully 2017 will bounce back and lead us through another great year. I for one am looking forward to sharing the next year of adventures with all of you. Happy New Year and I'll see you in 2017!
Slan Go Foill!
