It took a day to get used to the new inventory system, but in the end I was loving it like a dumb dog humping your leg.

F5, F6, F7 and F8 to open the four windows, press the buttons again to close them. I store picked up items (or overflowing items) in F5 (backpack), store quest items and salvaging tools in F6 (beltpouches), crafting material in F6 (bag), runes and weapon-parts in the second bag of F7.

  Yeah, I was a bit sceptical about the new inv system too, but got used to it during BWE.
  
  It's also the first version of the interface. I'm sure ArenaNet will get lots of feedback about it and fix it all up before the next BWE.

      Definately huge bosses. I killed my first drake during this WBE and it wasn't much larger than the Hellhounds I just killed moments ago.
      
      I want that "Holy Shit!" feeling when I fight a huge boss, not a "Ohhh he's glowing he might be tough" feeling.
      
      Pre-Ordering soon.

        Like the boss of wailing caverns in WoW... first time I saw him I was blown away.
