Is it possible to play end-game content as a new player?

snots, you have too much play time [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

simp403, it is absolutely possible to attain high end gear down the road. It does not matter at all how long it takes you to level. I played P99 for over a year before I started playing a lot and got a character over lvl 20. I don't have all the uber gear, but I have some PoSky loot and other pieces as well.

This is, by definition, P99. There IS a ceiling. You will never get loot better than Velious gear. That being said, this game is fun as shit. It takes me forever to level and I enjoy the hell out of it. But I am a rarer breed in that I enjoy leveling and don't really crave end game.

Are you in a guild? Guilds make everything more fun because you can group with the same cool people on a somewhat regular basis. Treants are a great spot to make some cash but yeah, they are camped a lot. With a guild maybe you could find a group to bang out some exp while earning cash/possible drops on loot instead of waiting for that camp.

Try out different things and see what you like best. IMO the fast road is the worst road.

Also, necros don't need gear =p
