Dialogue

In Kessex Hills

Welcome to the high-speed world, <Character name>! This course, Kessex Corner, is a quick sample to let rookies practice checkpoints and hairpin turns.

How can I go faster?

The essence of fast rolling is that your beetle speeds up going downhill and slows down going uphill. Avoid obstacles or rough terrain if you can, and conserve your momentum.

What of I have a need to go really fast?

Sounds simple. Let me ask you something else

When you've got to go fast, you can expend your beetle's stamina to perform a high-velocity boost. Careful though—your turning ability will suffer for a few seconds.

I feel faster already. Let me ask you something else.

Tell me more about checkpoints.

The checkpoints are holographic circles that will light up to show you the course. Try it out to get a feel for how they show the direction of the course.

Sounds simple. Let me ask you something else

What's difficult about turning?

The tighter a turn, the harder it is to keep your speed up coming out of it. The secret technique? Drifting!

How do I drift?

When you're rolling at high speed, hold back on the saddle as you begin to turn. You'll lose traction and slide, setting up a dynamic cornering maneuver!

Sounds effective. Let me ask you something else.

That doesn't sound too hard, I'll try it.

In Brisban Wildlands

Welcome to the high-speed world, <Character name>! This course, Tropic Valley Raceway, tours the entirety of the Wildlands—it'll test not just your acceleration, but your endurance and speed management.

Any other advice you have for this track?

Most racers try to go from checkpoint to checkpoint by the shortest route, but watch out for foliage—some of those shrubs have deep roots and will block your beetle.

All right, I think I'm ready for this.

Thanks, I think I've got this handled.

In Diessa Plateau

Welcome to the high-speed world, <Character name>! This course, Ghostfire Run, is a cross-country sprint along the plateau—you'll need to keep your speed up between the turns.

Any other advice you have for this track?

Most of the track is long straightaways suited to acceleration, but the midpoint has a series of corners and jumps. Don't get caught off guard.

All right, I think I'm ready for this.

Thanks, I think I've got this handled.

In Gendarran Fields

Welcome to the high-speed world, <Character name>! This course, Lakeside Loop, takes you for a leisurely roll across the fields, but ends with a long jump—keep your boost ready.

Any other advice you have for this track?

There's another unique feature here: a water section! At high speeds, your beetle can skip over deep water—try making a small hop before the water to keep as much speed as possible.

All right, I think I'm ready for this.

Thanks, I think I've got this handled.

In Mount Maelstrom

Welcome to the high-speed world, <Character name>! This course, Infernal Leap, isn't for the feint of heart—it'll take you into Mount Maelstrom itself for a daring stunt jump over lava.

Any other advice you have for this track?

Once you enter the volcano caves, visibility will be limited. Use the angle of the checkpoints ahead to plan your turns, and keep a boost ready to speed up once you're back on a straightaway.

All right, I think I'm ready for this.

Thanks, I think I've got this handled.

In Snowden Drifts

Welcome to the high-speed world, <Character name>! This course, Jormag's Fang, is short, but tricky—after an initial climb, you'll be faced with a series of corners.

Any other advice you have for this track?

Be judicious about using your boost—use it too late before a turn, and you won't be able to make the corner.

All right, I think I'm ready for this.

Thanks, I think I've got this handled.

In Hoelbrak during Dragon Bash

Good to see your face around here, <Character name>! I hope you'll join us for a race. You can use any mount on the course, but some might be better suited than other. Those corners sneak up on you!

Are you racing?

You bet! I like to set the pace to keep things exciting. Think you can keep up?

You'll be eating my dust.

Thanks, I think I got this handled.
