Let's be fair, we're only half of the server population. There are so many of us though that my leveling group was ganked by guildies earlier and I just stood around and watched then got accused of baiting.

Yeah, the cool thing about those shards were how none of them lasted for more than a month.

Eh, if anything it was kind of nice cause you didn't have RR10 zerglord poopsockers running around 2 shotting idiots only cause they played for 5 years or whatever.

Also, the reason none of those shards lasted was because the admins were loving idiots who caused internal drama all the time.

Lethantis started an itch that I couldn't scratch, so I'm playing live right now with pringles on alb if anyone is interested. Pretty good action lately.

Let me know when Archers are fixed.

I leveled my Hunter to 50, thought "OK, this is it... I'm gonna murder everyone!"

Here's how my first fight went against a shadowblade who was busy fighting another player:

Opening Shot: Miss
Second Shot: Miss
Third Shot: Miss
Switch to Melee: Miss

They fixed bow/melee this patch. You can now use a bow from any realm, as well.

Added new ports, new keep bonuses to rp/xp/bp, and some other poo poo.

0% hard if you buy plat from china. Or sell a time card for 250p. Takes anywhere from 2 to 200 hours to get to CL 15 after you're 50. Doing the supplies for the cause quest in the frontiers. Gives about 3800 bps (some sort of bonus going on right now, which you then use to buy CL xp scrolls for 2k bps which give a full 10 bubs of cl xp), about 600 rps, and 450g. And these shards which you use to get a random piece (1 of 3) for some high end gear. Like ml 10 poo poo, doppel myths, etc.

Also there are now merchants outside of SF/DL/CS that sell all the things. Summoner's hall poo poo, DF poo poo, seasonal poo poo, etc.


Grand total it cost me about 280p to get a good template for a minstrel.

You got those patch notes handy? I uninstalled everything. If it's a legitimate fix to bows I may come back. If I still suck I'll just give you all my gold.

edit: nvm I got them. Going to test this out tonight.

How long ago did you try leveling? They added a bunch of high-XP quests to the various towns, or you could join an XP group in the battlegrounds and just level through battlegrounds. We used to finish off leveling by doing the Atlantis quests at about level 40-45, but I don't know if that's even necessary anymore. There's still an Atlantis quest around Oceanus that's good for XP from level 30 to 40 if the battlegrounds aren't working out.

There's also a new Champion Quest line available in the throne room that just requires running around the capital city a bit, and it took me all the way from Champion level 10 to Champion level 15 in no time. ButtaKnife was trying to level CL XP by running the Supplies quest in the frontier and that took forever. My way was better.

eta: I should also mention that new quests give tons and tons of money. It's hard to do any new quests anymore and not walk away with 10+ plat. Don't bother with the gold farmers.

I ran supplies quest in an off time from CL 1-15 and it only takes about 2 hours (quick tip: if your home realm maze/keep aren't working out, port/boat to a different realm and do it there). As far as glass, they seem to have removed the repeatable versions in green glades, so the best way to XP is probably anything but that. It still only takes a few hours to BG quest from 1-50 though and you really want the BPs now. Plus, as stated earlier, the supplies quest can give shards for the high end gear which you might need for templates.


Oh also, my character name on alb is "Whoislash"

Albion is the only realm I never played. All my Albion classes were on Mordred.
I just preferred Midgard and Hybernia group compositions.

Last time I played on live (for a few days) I was forced to farm some stuff from monsters in atlantis to complete my ML quests etc. I hated it :(

The way to do MLs now is to accumulate bounty points by leveling in the battlegrounds, and then use your BPs to buy MLs. You can also use BPs to buy artifacts.

You still have to level the arties the old-fashioned way, though. :argh:

people sell it for like 10p now for a full ml1-10 credit, and you can make 10p just doing the supplies quest for a few hours while you're getting CL experience, so that's nice.

Was it impossible recently? There's an NPC in the housing entrance who helps characters coming from Mordred (when the housing zone isn't hosed, anyway), so I'd expect it to be possible.

Also, the new Otherworlds campaigns are ridiculous even after they made them easier. :gonk: Waffle and I just went through chapters 1-10 all at once.

Char transfer. They give you like plat or bps to buy gear with. It's /char copy?

Did you end up making a cleric? Like I said, I'm pretty down to level a PVE setup while you do a cleric. It'd make it way faster for you too, and I can toss you the ML credits since I'm loaded with BP.
