Holy people batman! This month we said goodbye to Fort Aspenwood and were relinked with Stormbluff Isle and Eredon Terrace. With this pairing we went from our squads being between 30 and 35 people at primetime to being 40-50. There have been a new set of trolls to ignore but other than that they seem pretty responsive. The good news is we get to fight alongside DOC who we've been facing off with for a while now. They’re a fun bunch and are very happy to see us on the battlefield with them.
The downside is that this pairing doesn't seem to have a server wide organization. It's a very every guild for themselves style setting. Their server teamspeak is rather vacant most of the time. So we're going old school in forms of communication. Find allies and stick with them.
It's time to start collecting prizes for the Great Tyrian Adventure. We are actively looking for Boxes/Bags of Armor, 18 and 20 slot bags, Exotic Weapons & Armor, Precursors & Legendaries. Send donations to Foghladha.2506. If anyone is looking to assist on a financial front, I would be happy to accept a gem card or two to add to the prize pile. I will be trying to get some prizes out of ArenaNet as well.
The next step for us is to plan the agenda. I would like to hold a Planning Meeting on February 11th at 3PM Pacific to brainstorm which bosses, activities, we want to target and get a tentative schedule of activities in place. If you would like to help out in planning our public community events be sure to type "+rank PCE" in the #Access-Requests text channel in Discord.
Please welcome our newest members to our Guild Wars 2 family.

Trion Worlds has given us the opportunity to livestream a short 1 hour preview event of the Telara Saga as part of their Livestream broadcast for PAX South. Join Gaiscioch in Tempest By on Faeblight at 3PM Server for a 1 hour run through a Great Hunt V, a Raid Rift, and a Stronghold with a small raffle following for all attendees and viewers.
Watch the Livestream from 3:30 - 4:30PM PT at:
As mentioned above every person counts. We'd love to see 100+ show up for this event. Our first event in the series is open to all levels and we can summon players to the battlefield of choice. With us pulling that many people into a single zone, things tend to get a bit crazy. Many never see it because packs of people don't travel together in those sizes but in days of old we could trigger zone invasions just by walking into a zone. RIFT scales content by the number of people that are present. A simple RIFT becomes an epic battle with the right number of people. Zone Invasions get amped up and hordes of minions assault. This is what we're trying to accomplish. The more bodies that are with us the more insane things get. Insane fights leave memories behind and that's what we're hoping to create.

Our weekly wandering with style fun runs have taken off and become a successful staple to our weekly activities. Seeing a bigger potential I've decided to open this up to the public as well and host these for all the people missing classic achievements. Each week we will form up in Tempest Bay on Faeblight at the steps near the major spawn point. I'd like us all to try to line up on both sides of the courtyard, all professional and snazzy like with our Raid Leaders on the Stairs. This will help coordinate groups and if we end up needing 2 raids we should be able to split our force easily. For the fun runs I plan on keeping to the Classic Raids, T1 & T2 Raids.
DiableCanine (DC) is actively putting together a serious raiding force to take on T3 Raids and future SFP raids. DC's raid is on Wednesday Nights and he needs people ready to play. He has several slots open so be sure to connect with him. We will use the fun runs as a breeding ground for those. My hope is to have our first dedicated raiding team up and running in the next month.
The fun runs will also introduce a lot of players to our community and with a little Gaiscioch Hometown Feeling, we can introduce people to a different side of raiding.
Join us Monday Nights at 6PM Pacific in Tempest Bay on Faeblight to join in the fun. We will be forming 2 raids to start with Gaiscioch splitting between the two. We will be bringing public in to fill the rest. We may even look into making use of the new Looking for Raid feature to help fill our gaps. If you are a player who is scared of Raiding, I encourage you to give it a try with us and see that it can be fun and friendly.
For those who are dimension crazy or those who want to have access to the Gaiscioch dimension vault, we spawned off another Sub-Guild called Gaiscioch Dimensioneers. In this guild, we have a guild dimension warehouse (Search: Gaiscioch Dimension Warehouse) and 3 pages of a vault dedicated to Dimensions. To gain access to this guild create or move an alt who isn't played often into "Gaiscioch Dimensioneers" via the Guild Finder. Characters will be synced with our website and promoted according to Gaiscioch Rank. You will gain the ability to withdraw 2 more items from the vaults per day for each tier of ranks including New Member, Member, Guardian, and Warlord. We ask that if you take something, you replace something. For Decorations simply place them in the Guild DImension. For larger items please scale them down so people can see what they look like.
With the launch of the dimensioneers guild warehouse we've freed up 2 pages of our guild vault. We are also trying to push people to use the marketplace to request items and materials.
Send unloved and unwanted Dimension items to Alaois for easy storage. Dimension items are not eligible for donation credit and will not be tracked. They will simply be gathered and placed in the vault for use by our members.

Need I say more! This system is pretty sweet and Gaiscioch is currently fundraising to get a Guild Hall in Tamriel. Verve is organizing the efforts and we are now accepting gold donations in increments of 1000 gold. For each 1000 gold you donate you will receive 100 contribution points. We will be needing millions of gold to pull this off so every gold counts.
Please send all donations to @verve to receive credit.
Please welcome our newest members to our Elder Scrolls Online family.

Some of you may have noticed the feature, others might have missed it. As new MMO's are announced that appear to be of interest to our community we begin polling interest. We have several games right now that we would like your feedback on. If you are interested in any of these be sure to click vote.
If any of these get above 250 votes we will be looking into it for possible chapter potential. Those that fall short will be included in our Social Adventure lineup.
I'm excited to report that we have found a title that actually lines up with our Chapter requirements on paper. It's still a long ways off but from the information we've gathered from their site, our interview in Gaiscioch Magazine (coming Feb 2017), and talking with their people, it looks to be the first game that A: targets both PvE and PvP with opt-in PvP. B: Supports massive gaming communities. It has everything from Raiding to Siege Warfare. The whole time having a consensual PvP system that doesn't allow griefing.
I've begun building relations with Intrepid Studios and hope to get our Pioneers into some pre-alpha testing. We won't know for sure until we go hands on but so far from everything that was said or read it looks to be the first full picture game we've seen come across the horizon.
I want to encourage you all to take a look at it yourself and if you find it interesting please vote for it on the poll on the Gaiscioch Homepage under the Social Adventure heading. The game will still need 250 votes before launch to qualify for chapter consideration so your votes matter. Give it a look and share your thoughts. Also be sure to stay tuned for our expansive interview with the Intrepid Team in our next issue of Gaiscioch Magazine.

This next issue is likely to be a pretty big one. We've got some great content coming our way including a full on interview with the team behind Ashes of Creation and an artist behind the collectable card game Fangold. We also talk with the esports community Omni Gamerz and EDM musician SizzleBird.
All in all this issue is shaping up to be a content rich issue with a full range of content from Guild Wars 2, Elder Scrolls Online, and RIFT. As always if you have any ideas or want to write an article we'd love to have you share it with us. This magazine was born out of our desire to share knowledge with others. Whatever you would like to share we would like to publish.

The concept behind the passport is to give our community an outwardly focused face that allows all to enjoy some of the fun of being a Gaiscioch.
