HEY BRO WHY DID YOU SWITCH OFF GHALLANDRA BRO. Not so silly now am I?!

Whether or not you want to get super serious with clickies is up to you. Power creep is such that you don't really need to do so anymore unless you're solo'ing EE raids. UMD used to be the end all/be all of classes so you could eek out every last bit of power and now most people don't even...

There's a ton of low level content. I would say get to about level 8 or so and get a feel for the content. If you enjoy it, then sub for a month or two.

Easiest way if soloing is to not turn in the crypt quest after completing it. Instead abandon one of the pre-req's (whichever is fastest to run). Then go to the pre-req quest giver, re-get the pre-req, redo the pre-req and turn it in. That should cause the crypt quest giver to allow you to...

They do but str+con is fine for a Barbarian. That's one of the reasons people recommend them since it just makes sense. Most builds will tell you what you absolutely need early on since some feats require a certain amount of str or dex or whatever. But for a "I smash" barbarian getting like...

Update 25 Patch 2 Release Notes | DDO.com Patch notes. That was driving me fucking nuts. Thank god.

Pure Barbarian is hard to fuck up. Just pick up any and all "Do more damage" abilities. Pure Paladin also hard to fuck up. Pick up any and all "Do more damage" abilities + keep your charisma high for LoH self heals. Barbarian or Paladin to 12 to get 5th tier enhancements then 4 lvls of...

Honestly the only way I see it working and not creating a complete clusterfuck is going the Spotify route. You charge extra for premium support and features and split that amongst modders based on unique downloads. If they announce plans to relaunch it in a similar form I'm just going to...

Don't read the forums. Honestly, they're a cesspit. If you have questions, ask. The wiki is your best source of information and asking on reddit will help too. The forums are a mish-mash of elitists and outdated info.

That and there are three guilds I know of that host open raids during the week. I couldn't find a single one advertising the few days I tried playing on G.

Free item of the week is a minor slayer elixir (+50% to slayer kills in wilderness zones). Code is: BCSL4 Also if anyone wants to help purchase airship upgrades feel free to send me plat. If we get enough people playing I may even fork over cash for a better airship and some of the cash...

That's kind of the idea I was going with the MMO of the month club. We tend to fizzle out on these games eventually so why not just all fizzle together instead of everyone playing random shit hoping the next Vanguard!(tm) comes along to save us all. Next month will be DDO. I'm considering...

By the way, there's a 'DDO start pack' you can buy on their store website for 10 bucks. The nice thing is it comes with a permanent gold seal lvl 3 cleric hireling. Which means every 5 minutes you can summon it anywhere in a dungeon, use it to heal yourself up, restore 300~ish of your mana...

There should only be 1 non-raid quest you can't solo I think and it requires passing a key through grates iirc, though I think even that you can sploit. Keep in mind hirelings can activate switches and you can drop bodies on ground triggers (though the body will fade after 15 seconds I think)...

And even then it was just to check if another camp had missed a mob. Most pullers I knew simply had an egg timer. I know I did for when I did the Cynd camp or in Kunark for quadding raptors. I tried FFxiv at launch and hated it. Have been meaning to give it a try but I just can't get over...

If we consider a game 'action combat' because you add a dodge/immunity frame hotkey and mobs have a casting animation I think we're pretty fucked. I downloaded WS, got a quest to kill 5 things which didn't fight back, turned it in for coin, xp and an item with random stats, logged off and...

Was SO3 the one where they enter the 4th dimension, cease to exist but because they love each other very hard they re-exist or some stupid shit? Need a JRPG where they don't beat the ultimate evil thanks to friendship bracelets and pinky swears.

I had an auto-fire joystick I made excellent use of. Tape that baby down and then take a 3 hour nap. Support classes are hard to do because they're either stupidly overpowered (Enchanter when you can charm), pointless (Enchanter when everything is immune to mez) and rarely stack well (Sorry...

Mostly just fucking around right now. Most of us are starting from scratch and I'm not much of a poopsocker anymore so it'll be awhile. So depends on how much 25 bucks is worth to you. I'd personally just reroll and enjoy grouping with whoever is on at the same time for as much content as you...

Considering they've been farming greensteal/thunderforged for the past forever now I'm not surprised. You also have to look at the type of people who end game. They're they ones with 23 hotbars because they're okay with carrying 2 bags of incredibly situationally useful stuff. They want...

Don't use a Sib cake for ressing. Simply not worth it. Best bet is to have your skeleton pet pick up your crystal and warp your way to a rez shrine. He should have enough survivability to manage getting beat on while you make it. The mountain quest can be a bit rough doing elite at level 3...

They basically 180'd the game from being a "YOU MUST HAVE A PERFECTLY BALANCED GROUP!" to "Pick something with self heals and wafflestomp content." Which honestly I think is a good idea because leveling/dungeons still go 30~40% faster if you have friends with you, plus you can always put...

I thought that was pre-order bonus only? Guild invites sent btw. They'll be in your in game mail.

Yeah, rented hirelings are cheap enough that you should never leave home without them. The level 1 barbarian hireling is strong enough to solo all the Korthos missions on elite so I recommend him to start with. Once you hit level 5 or so get a cleric hireling. Even though the cleric can't...

It's a Nexon game so like all Nexon games you basically run the same 5 missions over and over again. If you've never played a Nexon game before it's worth it for a few hours of fun but the shallowness of the game becomes pretty obvious pretty quick. Also yeah, the lag is horrendous in groups...

It's level 18+ only I think. The only advantages you get from the two expansions for low level is if you get the premium underdark expac, then you get one permanant +xp tome per server. Only one though so use wisely. Invites sent. Check your in game mail. It'll have an item you can detach...

You don't really need any equipment honestly Harfles. Just grab whatever. But because that's a cheap copout bullshit answer: Figuring out how bonuses stack is the hardest part of the game. Just remember that every bonus has an adjective in front of it like competence, equipment, implement...

Melee/ranged/spell power adds bonus damage. Each point is equal to 1% bonus damage applied on top of all other modifiers. This is most noticeable with empower/maximize spell. Before it was 75/150% bonus damage. It's now +75/+150 spell power respectively. Same boost but it makes it much...

Category:Free to Play quests - DDO wiki If you're free to play doeveryquest Normal->Hard->Elitex3. DO NOT level up until you've completed every quest at your current level including wilderness areas. Bank the XP instead. It's better to do every level 4 quest at level 4. If you always...

Update 25 Release Notes | Dungeons and Dragons Online They keep trying to make player made traps viable but with the way the game is just a giant 'rush to the end' by the time you know enough about the game to even make/use traps...

Dungeons and Dragons Online Yes and no. DDO at it's core is the same half dozen mechanics and insane money grab it's always been. They do infrequent passes on the enhancement trees now though since that's there 'easy button' to make certain classes more attractive beyond a '2 splash' or...

What Sinzar said. All I really do now is log on, do a group dungeon or two because I like the combat but hate the quest grind, then go and play StarCraft or DDO until the kids wake up.

Invite sent. Pale trapper I found to be a lot of fun. It's a little slow to start because low level wizards suck but then you hit 8 and get death aura, firewall and vampire form and it's just a lollercoaster from then on out. It's not at all epic raid game capable because of the age old EQ...

Pure rogue is a terrible solo class. It's doable because anything is doable with a cleric hireling but there are better variants. Mostly you want a class with a reliable way to heal itself. Paladin is probably the most beastmode soloist right now. What most people do is splash 2 levels of...

Extending this for another month due to the expac coming out. Feel free to join. No obligations, no requirements. Just a group of people to play with. I crash constantly and play from work so I may miss tells sent my way but will do my best to keep an eye out. Anybody in the clan can invite.

I mean I do like that there are differing layers of complexity. There's the "Pale trapper" build which you can do as a completely ftp player and will let you solo to level 20 quite easily and is really fun. Then there's the "Wizard Ninja" build meant for end game damage, trapping and spell...

Only if you decide you want to go the UMD route and be able to use every wand in existence. If you want to be a tryhard end game epic raider you might have. Personally I said fuck that, am ignoring UMD and anything I get locked out of because I don't want 20+ hotbars I just don't do.

Duoing is pretty strong. There are a lot of pairs that can go extremely well together and quite a few quests have 'split' tasks so you can often finish a quest 2~3 times faster that way. Only suggestion I would make is if you're going to have the luxury of duoing one should definitely pick a...

I just restarted on Sarlona because that seems to have the highest active amount of players now so I'm only level 8 or so on a first life. Always seems to be a group in my level range going but it's usually someone on their 4th or 5th life so they rarely want someone to group with who doesn't...

It's my go to when I don't know what else to play because I know I'm going to get a good solid 10+ hours out of it at the very least and occasionally it hooks me again for a lot longer. It's 99% PvE. The PvP scene is like 8 guys who get together and do PvP once a week or something. I'm...
