Having rezzed Loke many, many times, I can assure you he's not THAT good at this game :P

Hahaha!

Everyone is too angry in here, so here is a picture of a flower that I took to make everyone feel happy again!

Yeah I honestly don't see the point in the harsh responses to the new guy asking how the end game is on this server. A lot of people complain about it so sometimes you wonder what it's going to be like once you are 50 as you are leveling up. I probably wouldn't take my free time to make the post.. but like now I'm at work and looking for some time to kill.

I decided I don't care what it is like and will be leveling to 50 either way but I admit that I'm not as excited to hit 50 after hearing all the hot spots are camped 100% of the time and certain guilds horde it to themselves. It's not like I expect the higher end guilds to act any different, its just how it is on classic, not much space at the end game for all the level 50's.

Oh me oh my,
what do we have here?
general concern,
or someone who doesn't care.

I'm glad to see,
someone is worried about me,

Either way,

it'll stop frenzy from going *splatter*

and post some rararar
or I could stop now,
and say tl;dr

OP posts some valid questions, entitled to his opinion. Loke didn't like it, responds how he sees fit because the subject seems repetitive to him and it annoys him, then you have the typical sackriders out in full force. Maybe someone should make a thread about that. Er, wait, there already is one..

I currently roll an enchanter, and as the levels climb, their ability to solo suffers, so I will likely be reliant on groups.

Their solo ability goes up. I personally know enchanters who solo some of the best paying and most pist camps in the game........

Honestly, I've been 50 since late November. I also have a 50 paladin. I haven't been in a guild since February. I'm still having a blast. There's tons of things to do. This game is what you make of it, really.

This is where the thread (and the game itself) begins and ends. EQ truly is what you make of it, and as long as you have even the slightest hint of social skills the possibilities are endless.

It disheartens me to see some of my in-game friends get so disgruntled that they just up and quit. Some get frustrated with the way people act (very understandable, see earlier posts in this thread for reference). Some question what the point of the XP grind is. Some are truly, clinically obsessed with getting XP at the fastest rate possible and they have no interest in reaping any social rewards from the game whatsoever.

Me? I don't care what gear I have. I care even less what gear you have. I don't care whether there's a hybrid in my group slowing the XP rate. I don't care if the group wipes — as long as the group was having fun and/or taking some risks in the process. If I'm stuck in a group that can't be bothered to communicate beyond INC messages and heal macros, forget it, I'll be on my way.

I've had a blast at just about every level so far because this is my priority set. I'm not waiting until level 50 to decide it's time to have fun. Give me a group of level 2 toons with personalities over stuck-up uber-geared snots any day of the week.

^this

I *might* see my first level 50 character by the time Velious comes out - if then. Right now, I have one 16 and one 17. I too am having an absolute blast.

So yeah, that's the beauty of this game - there's something for everyone and every style of play.

Don't sweat what might happen some day. Have fun today. If you are playing this game for "some day" then you are playing it for the wrong reason.

are you kidding?? enchanters rock the party at soloing. as soon as you hit 39 soloing to 50 is the easisest thing in the world and at 50 you can solo any of the premium camps in dungeons.

grouping is for the weak.
