Following Quiz's example in GW, I'm posting a ding thread here. Think it'd be fun if we talked about how we dinged.
I'm 36 currently. Last ding was in the Temple, I was teamed with some melee guy, and we pretty much soloed the beginning of the temple, got to the first boss, level 42 or something - so we killed all the minions around (for me to ding to 36 - which I did), and then we owned the boss.
Was quite nice, since I was 36 and he was 40, while the boss is pretty badass. Some memorable teamwork there in concern to aggroing, considering neither of us heal with nano's.
After we beat his ass, I aggroed 6 of the minions on me and let em kill me so I get back to rome. Was fun dying in an intentional blaze of glory (as opposed to dying because I'm a wealking chicken running away from something that pwns me unintentionally).
So.....post when you ding, and also post how if you have the time

Any chance you could share some tips on IP. I'm currently assigning them fairly blindly.Raa wrote:I'm lvl 9. Was with this guy (girl? whatever) 'Caser'. Was very helpful. Taught me how to use nano tech and what I should be doing with my IP.
ATM I tend to do:
1) max out all the first tab except Nano Pool (Don't feel I need any more atm - My rest periods are currently dependent on lack of health and I very rarely get low on nano)
2) Any points for anything I want to start using
3) Run Speed, Ranged Init and CloseC Dodge (? Can't remember exactly what it's called)
4) Ranged tab: Rifle, Aimed Shot and usually one of the others depending upon the weapon I'm using and the weapon I want to use/try next.
5) Concealment & Perception

If it's green, max it. If it's first aid/treatment, max it.
I was down the bottom of the subway with Xanthra, took some potshots at that boss-type-guy (my 3rd encounter with him.. the second that I survived) and I hit level 20. Then Manny woke up, and while trying to get to the surface in a hurry I died. 5,000 XP to make up

Heh, 49.
I liked something I saw today.
Yesterday, when I was about 33, I went to one of the deeper boss places, and I saw a team of 5-6 people dressed in black ganking the lvl 70-80 bosses. Medic was doing his work perfectly, they were tanking as supposed to, acted like a team and kicked ass.
I thought "wow, wish I could do that".
Today, I was ganking some stuff in my ultra orange robe, and got more and more items, better and better armor.
So my team and I go to kill some boss in the north part of the temple, and as we're ganking away, I realise "Hey wait, I saw this somewhere before....." and realised I was doing what the team I saw yesterday did. All of us wore black (best coat you can find there) and the medic was also doing a fantastic job as was the tank.
We pwned the bosses, got out very happy.

well.. the free period was originally was just gonna be available for a month, then it got extended, and then extended again.. I wonder if in 2006 you will have to pay to play, I think they'll keep the original free as its a good way of getting people to try the game and from the looks of it alot of people upgrade so they make the money there...

He has a few things, but the main & most coveted drop is the Stygian Desolator, the sword Aztur has in his hands.BlackDove wrote:c) Kill Azt and see what he's carrying.
Someone nearby was willing to pay my team 5mil for one when we did it
