Talk:Rollerbeetle Racing (arena)

Ooh. This sounds like great fun. It would be a quite fun pasttime if they keep it around outside the holiday. Just think - instead of repeating boring Challenge missions and getting the All Time High Score - oh wait, now it's only Quarterly - you can spend time racing as a Rollerbeetle! And we can have Racing Guilds. Hehe ^^ I hope there's a good title to accompany this event...Rollerbeetle champ! Entropy 20:22, 14 February 2007 (CST)

Winning rollerbeetle races will probably count towards the gamer title track. I find it unlikely they would get their own title, unless they plan to make it a permanent part of the game. -- Quizer 10:41, 16 February 2007 (CST)

Yeah it would be kinda fun to have something to do outside of the usual MMORPG (or as Anet would say CORPG) things.Glass 18:59, 15 February 2007 (CST)

I WANT THIS FOR AT LEAST A MONTH! Geez, this is so cool I don't want to stop playing - Abedeus 15:30, 16 February 2007 (CST)

Mariocart much? :p How do the shell patterns work? &mdash; Skuld 15:38, 16 February 2007 (CST)

...Wow. For each victory, you gain 7 points toward the Gamer Title and 100 fb. Strange, because 50 is for winning and 50 if for ,,flawless''... But beetles cannot die? ;p - Abedeus 15:47, 16 February 2007 (CST)

Skill details and such
I have to jet in an hour after the event starts (if it starts on time), but I'll do my best to throw the raw information about the skills (and hopefully the icons) here, and I'll let someone more familiar with working with the skill template to sort them out. Hope that's okay. &mdash; kyrasantae   14:32, 16 February 2007 (CST)
