What's a 50 to do?Follow

#1 Jun 20 2005 at 2:59 PM Rating: Decent
I've read many of the nostalgic posts about EQ. I also miss the game as no other game since gives me the sense of entering a different world like EQ does. It was my first online game. My problem is when I return due to nostalgia, I don't know what to do? My "main" is a level 50 ranger. None of the people I used to group with are still there. There don't seem to be many active guilds accepting level 50s. I can't find any good quests which I can do solo and I'm tired of killing griffs in Jaggedpine. I would love to return to the game if someone could point me in the direction of some fun things to do!

The new tasks system is great for those that don't like to group, or can't find a group. Its an hour or 2 of gameplay that doesn't require grouping.

They are basically single person quests that can be completed in a short amount of time. Great alternative to hardcore xping :)

DO you have to have the Dragons of Norrath expansion to use the task system? I have not played in some time.

Yup I would suggest working on tasks, or join your server's open raid channel and work on your epic. If your just looking for groups shout for a group in Plane of Justice for good XP at your level.

I think tasks came with OoW. Although new tasks were given for those who have the DoN expansion.

Please correct me if I am wrong.

You need the Omens of War expansion to do the tasks that can be accepted solo.

DoN tasks, like LDoN, can only be done by a minimum group size of 3. This includes the non-Lavastorm tasks as well.

The DoN missions are full of nasty little runners. Snarers aka Rangers are once again "needed" Smiley: smile

A 50s ranger hanging around Lavastorm shouldn't have too much trouble find a group or two and rebuilding a network.

There are severak DoN solo tasks.

The tasks, whether they are OoW tasks or DoN tasks are not soloable by everyone. DoN has a fixed set of tasks, and if you are too low (or not a good solo class) you won't be able to solo them. The OoW tasks change as you level up. However, at higher levels they become increasingly unsoloable.

For example, at 49, my chanter was given the task to kill 10 scalebones in Burnt Woods. That one was a great task. It was difficult, but not impossible. Once I dinged 50, I went and got another task. It told me to kill 10 wyverns in Skyfire. Well, it's not easy to solo wyverns as a chanter. That one was impossible to do. Even my druid (who solos well I might add) had trouble with some of the higher level ones, and couldn't solo the DoN tasks at 62 or 63.

I have to agree on this about the DoN solo tasks. There is nothing solo about them. As a 64 war One mob will wipe me and I have 8K hp. If you are have thge group for the solo tasks you might as well do the missions.

I don't mean to hijack the thread here, but do you really feel comfortable with posting gibberish like this? It really does not make you look very intelligent, and I would probably not likley follow any advice that you give, based soley on this post.

I'm sure your a nice enough, and possibly smart enough person, but posting crap like this sure doesn't convey that message.



--Back to the regulary scheduled post--

Question for the OP.

What server are you on? I know a few guilds on my server that are completely family based and have no level restrictions to get in..sure you may never see the end game with them, but at least you'll make some new friends and possibly have some grouping buddies!

How did I know you would come back with an in game threat? And did you just threaten me by threating one of your other toons? How stupid is that?

Your grasp on both the english language AND basic logic astounds me!

Tell you what, next time think about what you want to say...send it to anyone else on the board..have them proofread read and send it back. Then you just have to copy and paste it. It'll make things much easier for both of us.
