Must do list

Amadaeus_ab · 03-27-2008, 08:31 AM

I'm coming back from a very long hiatus, and starting over with a new character. While leveling up, is there any "Must Do" instances, raids or quests that I should make an effort to do? Do a lot of guilds still raid the old content, or is it like EQ1 where the trash mobs in the new expansion have better drops then end game content from the previous expansion?

Well slight change, trash-solo quests in the new xpac contain better drops than previous xpac fabled.

But its best to do as many instances/dungeons as possible to get the aa from it.

Consider doing the Claymore quests as this item is great for alot of classes, BBC is also a must for a caster, telling us what class your playing will make it alot easier to make a list.

While you are levling up, make sure you finish all the quests in butcherblock so you can get the charm item from there as it is one of the best charm items in game (except for some raid ones)

BBC= bone bladed claymore.
BCG= bone clasped girdle. (This is the one thats a must for casters)

from what i've heard BCG is pretty much not as useful in RoK as it was in EoF, i hear it gets resisted ALOT in RoK

It doesn't get resisted A LOT, but it's hit rate is less than 100% now.

I'm playing a Troubador, and my wife is playing an Illusionist. We just hit Butcherblock after going 1-20 in TD.

That's definitely an interesting duo pair. Once you guys hit 80 you should be able to kill a ton a things duoing.

But for now, just concentrate on doing as much questing as you can. It's not only one of the faster ways to level, it's much more fun then just griding levels, and you get a ton of AAs, which can make you quite powerful at the lower levels if you can get a bunch early on.

You should both do BCG as soon as you can, other then that people who said claymore are right on. Once you get to RoK, normal questing should get you gear good enough to start doing the easier instances (like Crypt of Agony) around lvl 75 or so. I don't know if you plan on eventually raiding, but in RoK, there is a ton of really good quested gear. With the pair you have, you wouldn't have much difficulty completing the majority of the quests in the expansion. The two that come to mind immediately are the Epic Weapon lines and the Thugga Jewelry line. For most raiders, only select pieces are better then the Epic or the Thugga line. But the quested gear for the most part will be good enough to get you started in RoK raiding.

I don't think you should really worry too much about "must do" rather then what you want to do. Just have fun playing, the quests/gear/levels/AA will all come eventually.
