I loved the hell out of this game but there was one nasty flaw when I played.

Temple of the Three Winds

I loving hate this place. It is merciless and I was never able to level out of that god drat hellhole. It also dropped some of the best looking weapons of all [don't remember their names but one's a bluish dagger type and a giant loving red sword]

Is there ANY way I can level elsewhere besides this? Im even considering expansions due to wanting to play keeper or continuing adveturer

If you're just looking for the quickest way to level up, I think my low level speedlist would go something like this:

(levels might be a bit off, can't remember that well)

1-7 RK newbie area
7-17 nascence up to crippler cave
18-25 nasc crippler cave
26-45 nasc swamp (malah area and dungeon for higher levels)
40-60 nasc heck noobing
61-90 ely mortiigs or spiders
Then start shooting rocks.


Thanks a bunch for this! Once I get accustomed to the game again I will give this a shot.

Speaking of training wheels. does anyone suggest expansions that I should get or should I just grab them all?

If you do skip ToTW be sure to come back close to level 60 to farm all the items you may want from there.

drat straight! some of the loot there is really great from what I hear.

Asides from that. I was thinking of getting the Special offer which apparently gives all expansions for 10$ including a month for 15$. Does this mean each month is 25$ or is there something I'm overlooking?

I'd also like some some class suggestions for decent soloing. If anything I just might go back to Enforcer or Fixer.

You buy an omni clan application from a basic... bookstore, I think? If you do that, then come to rome, I can give you a some credits for nanos and stuff :)

Remember to make yourself a NCU hacker interface. Buy a lockpick and a nano-programming interface from any store and mush them together with great vigor. Makes a nice leveling item.

So apparently I can't play anymore cause it tells me it's not paid :confused:

I check my account on the site and it says the payment failed but whenever I try to enter the CCV/CVC number it just sits there and does nothing.

Am I doing it wrong or is this a firefox problem?

Is ToTW still a thing? gently caress that dungeon. gently caress wanting all the cool loot that dropped off the big loving bosses in that shithole. gently caress all those cultist trains. gently caress all those cultist adds. gently caress all that noise. it's what literally stopped me from playing multiple times [started a sniper, quit and made a fixer [i think. those grid armor dudes who could make robo pets?. never got to use that neither.], quit him a bit after and then made an adventurer and played that as a subscribed member for a month before getting locked.

I'm thinking of playing again as a fr00b idiot just for the hell of it but i don't know what I want to make this time.

If it was that doc or keeper or whatever, that's omah, you should join our organization in the future. It's pretty great. Dude has tons of alts and helped me get CM on at level 25 with obscure buff armor pieces.

Nah it was someone else whos alts were named Trialz and Handofblood. I haven't seen him on recently but now that I hit 60 it's time to see what I can do. I'm still unable to solo GoT or Lien by my own without buffs sadly.

I got my enforcer from 1-100 from subway, totw, to foremans. I never really did missions unless I was rolling for something specific and even dailies weren't really done until like level 90 when I realized they were a thing.

The reason twinking was so fun was because you needed a number of class buffs, knowledge of implants, and a few gears you had to get yourself because most of it was untradeable. I had so much fun getting my enforcer twinked out in top ToTW gear the moment he was able to even enter the place. I tried hard to get a Panther on him but i was a few points short at the end.

ToTW was the worst loving dungeon and the only reason I was able to bypass it on my 5th+ char was because he got twinked. My agent, adventurer, fixer, medic, and crat all loving died to it.

Hey someone was saying that your steam may have been Phished by some russian dude. I don't know the details but I figured this was the best way to contact you just incase something bad did happen.

Also last night I downloaded the installer and managed to delete it before anything bad happened.
