what are your current character plans?

I think I will finish off my TRs I have going, and then stop until I see what all is going on. I have, or will have, an open character slot, so I may roll up one more wiz to have ready to TR into something. Wizzies are freaking easy to level up.

Take your Human Evoker FVS, TR 3x each into WF Wizzy and WF Sorc and then back again into a Human FVS.  Get to it old man, you only have 5 months left to grind out that 40 million xp!

To be truthful, I don't mind having a few TRs and new characters going at once. It has been fun rolling all the 1-19 stuff with you guys.

I'm probably going to TR my Wizard a second time just to pick up the extra 2 spell penetration along with both spell pen feats to get ready for all those Epic Drow.

I'll also be heading toward Conjuration + Necromancy instead of Enchantment + Necromancy just because of Web.  And then I'll cry tears of blood when Turbine adds a spell resistance check to Web in June.

Didn't you say that the FR/Lolth/Underdark stuff was bullshit?

I don't remember saying that, but it's possible that I did.  My wife lets me know about things that I've said that I don't remember, so I'm not going to deny it if you have a strong memory of that.  Smiley

I do remember saying that I initially thought that the DDO Drow were colossal pussies, but then I realized that the giants enlsaved everyone, so they weren't quite as big pussies as I had initially thought.  That's all I actually remember saying about the Drow.

Sorry. I hold grudges and I have a faulty memory. Sometimes that leads me to yell at the wrong people. You are free to go now. Sorry to trouble you.

I don't enjoy the epic grind - I much prefer leveling TRs. There's unlikely to be any reason for me to play to 25, except maybe if I decide one character is "done" and leave it at cap.

One of the math guru's needs to get to it and list what the xp requirements are going to be for the pevel progression of 21-25.  Might as well list out the XP for single and multiple TR's while you are at it based on the current curve so we can see just how painful this will be!  I'm too lazy! Cheesy

Hard to tell they could start 21 to 25 at 0 and call it Epic XP and have a whole new scale.  I expect it will be a big number though to keep everyone occupied.

I just got that impression after you spent 13 pages calling out eladiun for being an interwebs bully when anyone who's been posting on here already knew that.  I mean, he's proud of it and hardly tries to hide that at all.

I may be backing out of endgame stuff for a bit and instead focus on finishing my current TR's before the level bump.  Or, I may ignore my TR's until I know what changes are coming and focus all my efforts on gear.

Decisions.

And the best part: Following the current XP scaling totals in DDO, each of the level 20-25 quests should be worth about 1,000XP each.

I'm predicting that the epic xp won't diminish by repetition....unless they go and unlock epic difficulty on all quest. Epic MP could be interesting if most of the shrines were removed.

Might TR smrti into her final build now instead of waiting, depending on how the xp will work. Dukkha will probably never TR. I like his setup way too much, and my arty needs capping, as does Warcrye.

just when I thought I had my plans all set this comes up.

I guess I'll stay on course until it becomes clearer what will be done. TR wizzy and 1 bard and focus on a select number of toons to level/gear up.

I'll finish leveling my arti up just because he's damn fun to play then decide what to do with him.

Guess I'm gonna have a few new lvl 20 bank toons Cry

I'm going to hold off on making any end-game gear-based decisions.  I have a crafting toon that I was looking to really deck out, slot epic slots, recraft greensteel, etc...I'll instead make due with what I have or can easily get on him.

I'll double-down on my current plan for my arcane toon.  He's a 2nd life wizzy that I plan on taking 3xwiz, 3xsorc, then arti.  That toon will finish getting the gear I want this life - Torc and bauble mainly (not ToD ring though since I'm not positive he'll end up arti and don't want to waste any more time waiting for TR) then start TR'ing with immediate restarts at 20.  In any case 1 more wizard past life and 3 sorc past lives, under the current game system, with twink gear and a near 100/100/100 crafter that has 50 cannith favor...that's not a grind, that's a 4-month long party. Smiley

I've been taking a break from the game.  At this point, it looks like I'll probably wait until Underdark is released and then jump back in.  When that comes, I'll finish up my Ranger's TR, work on getting my Wizard from 20 to 25, and level up my lowbie Bard in between.  Pretty much same as I was doing for the last 6 months.  Smiley

It seems that every new pack brings more powerful gear than older packs at the same level. Why grind out stuff and plan slots for a level 25 character now when you will probably have to rearrange everything for some must-have items in the new content.

I wonder if there will be a new crafting system with some ML21+ gear (and slots), or will the existing ML20 Epic gear (and slots) be expected to remain the default for level 25 characters? We all know that DDO doesn't have enough incompatible crafting systems yet.

Note to any Turbine staffers reading this, and one I genuinely hope you share around the office: DDO has become a shit game because y'all have made it a shit game. Once it was great. Now, it's a festering puddle of monkey diarrhea. No matter how you try to justify it, or pat yourselves on the back for doing great jobs... it's a shit game now because of you. Y'all keep on giving the players the middle finger, and you keep expecting us to reward you for the abuse. I've had it with you narcissistic fuckwads and your myopic policies of ineptitude.

I need to bang out my Arti I will be TRing into on Sunday, finish my 3rd life kensai (lvl 13 currently), grind out about 750,000 epic tokens to slot all my gear, do 3x wizard lives on my wizard, re-cap my TR'd sorc (level 1 currently) and decide if I want any more past lives on my cleric who will become my druid.

I will be waiting to laugh when people find the bug that causes levels 21-25 to delevel your character.
