The first 4 quests being inside the village or including the main island? Also do you have to do them on elite?

Inside the Village, up until after The Collaborator mission when you kill that chump Jacoby Drexlhand. You get 50 a pop for this. Unfortunately you do have to do the starting tutorial each time though which is pretty annoying (as its your first character on the server). So I guess that's five all up, but since you know what to do should be pretty easy and you can just rush through with a great axe weilding fighter or barbarian.

And you only have to do it on normal to get the points?

Couple articles on free to play and getting/managing Turbine points.

Yep.

EDIT: Judging by one of the above links, its because 5 favour have been accrued, so that = 50 as the first milestone and easiest to get.

Good links Multi-headed Cow.

Sov, Fye, Kraze want to do this farming? I reckon we could get ~3 adventures if we do it.

So, I made a human paladin, CWork Knight, on Cannith (maybe will remake as a dwarf, but whatever. Also, may change server if this isn't the one you guys are on). How do I chose difficulty level?

Satori (original) · Sep 22, 2009

When you enter a dungeon you get the option of solo or normal difficulty, hard opens up once you've done normal and elite after hard.

Clockwork Knight · Sep 22, 2009

Cool. Will probably learn some stuff and level once or twice before looking for the brotherhood. Also, if paladin turns out to be shit, will roll a ranger

There is no druid because druids suck. They are apparently adding druid later though.

And you can still pay to play because not everything is unlocked in free mode. Most importantly, a lot of quests and adventures. You can either buy adventure packs individually for a set amount of money/points, or spend $15 a month which gives you a few points and unlocks all adventure packs as long as you pay and a few other perks. And supposedly free content dries up around level 10, but I haven't played that far so I don't know how true that is.

It's effectively impossible to play the whole game for free since it would require a ridiculous amount of time grinding characters over the same quests over and over. You COULD do it, but it would be retarded.

Later? I didn't even know this shit was still being supported. Isn't this game ancient?

I'll play if druid gets added some time soon (which it won't)

There is an adventure pack narrated by Gary Gygax.

In a hour or two or so, currenty can't play.

Could you make a list of the classes that the guild finds desirable? Then the OP could be asked to insert the list into the starting post for everyone to see.

http://ddowiki.com/page/Classes#Class_Stacking - this table can be treated as a guide I guess

L'ennui · Sep 22, 2009

Lvl 2 humie sorceror, named Lennui, on Cannith. Invite me and I shall join my butthurt brothers.

I CAST MAGIC MISSILE FOR GREAT JUSTICE!

(damn, that spell sucks. But the ice ray, empowered, is pretty nifty)

2-3 years old. And it's still being supported, the same time they made it free to play they added a bundle of new content to the game and raised the level cap to 20 and added the favored soul class. So people who were still subscribed got a load of new goodies.

"Module 9" was the free to play update if you wanna see everything they recently added.

Hmm, I re-rolled to rogue/fighter with the rogue part being taken seriously this time.
The new name is Einskaldir.
But I'm not sure I'd want to join a brotherhood of butthurt. You sound like a bunch of homogays.
What was the problem with "The Codex" of "The Codex of Arr Pee Gee" ?
Damn, I'm gone for a weekend and you manage to fuck up...

Gragt · Sep 23, 2009

Damn, too much work lately so I can't play. Hope to be back soon.

The guild takes its inspiration from classical sources. Plus the name rolls off the tongue.
