DAOC Origins , early january release date

[thisuserwasbannedlol]

Classic + Shrouded isles, looks great

Been playing on uthgard but exp is slow and its tough to find low level players to group

DAOC is the best pvp game ever made to date, if you have not played it you are missing out.

Uthgard is great, but exp is too slow and I cant level, my buddies quit already

a brand new packed server I think is the solution

[Andis]

no one cares about daoc

this is eq forums

[Millburn]

Yeah I'll play the shit out of this. DAoC to me is still the #1 game when it comes to PvP, old school UO the close second.

[Kergan]

UO best PVP on death sounds alone.

Looking for 1 time exemption from server staff to hax my sound files to make this play when a humanoid dies.

I came back to Darktide for a little bit not too long ago. That community is almost worse than this one.

[iiNGloriouS]

Really? Damn. People are just asshats.

[magician]

Lol this server will surely flop.

Just play uthgard its worlds better. its like comparing project1999 to some shit modded custom server.

[iiNGloriouS]

Shut the fuck up Burt. No one wants you to talk anymore. Hush just tears now

[Eslade]

I tried the uthgard server. made it to 10 followed by promptly quitting. No thanks.

[thisuserwasbannedlol]

im on uthgard now, I have been playing on it for a while. Its decent at best, has no SI and if you begin now you will go up against high realm rank players and get mushed

origins is a fresh start, that's important

something red99 needs too /wink

[jeffd]

already crushed kay/merlin/classic

don't care enough to crush a new server

[GreenRanger]

never played daoc but i'm super excite to play this on a fresh classic like server. gonna be epic

[Hailto]

I used to play daoc back in the day. How painful is it to level, been awhile.

[Dr. Edge]

I liked that game but have zero interest in pvp

[fishingme]

So in the end what are going to be the differences game wise between origins and uthgard? Hah, and will bonedancer be released? I think the only problem i had with uthgard is that population was far to euro time zone for me so not enough players online.

[QuantumZebra]

How's the grind in this game? And what is a good class if I play an SK in EQ?

[Byrjun]

Not quite sure what DAOC Origins is but I think it's another emu server. If they're promising SI on release it's probably gonna be the Toopquest version of Uthgard. A lot of people went over to Toopquest based on a new classic server and unfulfilled promises, and then people realized the server was garbage and came back to P99. Uthgard has been working on SI for fucking years and it's not done yet, so I can only imagine Origins' implementation is going to be half-assed.

How's the grind in this game?

Max level is 50 and it's comparable to 1-50 in EQ, maybe a bit faster. It's super grindy compared to today's MMOs, but not nearly as much as 1-60 in EQ. Plus, at least on Uthgard, you can level up almost exclusively through PvP.

And what is a good class if I play an SK in EQ?

It's probably best to decide on which realm you want to play first. Reaver is probably the closest to an SK, other hybrid options are Champion, Thane, and Paladin.

There are some other "hybrid-esque" classes like Skald, which is technically the bard archetype but it's a hell of a lot more melee-focused than the others (Bard is magey and Minstrel is stealthy). I really like the Skald class, it's like utility, instant cast spells for interrupting casters, and smackdown all in one class. I have one at level 50.

Just be aware that not everything is 100% balanced on Uthgard so some classes have a hard time feeling useful at 50.

They havent even released bonedancer class on uthgard, i don't think euro people have much time to spend on hobby coding

[Skittlez]

Totally gonna play this again. Fucking amazing game.
