Nosthula posted:DAoC portal was no longer showing the server but I was able to get patched up using the origins portal. It did successfully downgrade the version. Thanks for the help. No clue what I would like to play. Unfortunately I will not have much time to play. Yeah, the server is being goofy right now, it's not showing up on the DOL server list (daoc portal). Playing a support class of some kind would probably be your best bet if you don't have a lot of time to play. Easier to get in to a group.

Nosthula posted:What is a good shaman spec? If you're not going to abuse the zerg xp, an aug healer would be your better bet. They can solo reasonably well until 40. Shamans can solo very well, but they have to spec in to cave, which makes groups hate you forever.

Kejek posted:Well, the zerg xp has been nerfed. Sadly running around trying to kill greens to find some gear. In hindsight, that zerg probably wasn't the best idea. I got pretty lucky and I had a full suit of ROG chain/weapon when I finished there. The server has been extremely unstable today. They definitely hosed something up. The epic quests are extremely easy. You could duo the viking with a healer.

Minclark posted:Zippo It's been fairly unstable lately. I think you've just had bad luck. It's been up more than down by far, but it's still laggy. But they're working pretty hard and over the course of today stability has improved significantly. That was me trying to get everyone in Myth. Tanreall and Sersly are in. And on that note, I'm going to be switching guilds to some buddies on Midgard that have finally rolled over and merged with a high-end conglomerate of German guilds. Myth is great for a casual atmosphere and casual playstyle. But if you want to RvR it's really not the place to be. I've spoken with the leadership of this new one and all are definitely welcome to it. They seem to be more focused and concentrated on getting set up in a timely fashion. The leadership of Myth is extremely concentrated and, really, not all that active. I would imagine Tanreall and Sersly could stay in Myth and blend in without worry if you so choose. The problem is I didn't really know anyone in Myth and just got grandfathered in by having a character from Uthgard in the guild.

Everytime the launcher tried updating the old frontiers map the launcher crashed. Download/install/patch on the ***MYTHIC*** client. Like you were going to play live. Download DAoCPortal from http://www.dolserver.net/daocportal/ . Make an account on Origins. (Forums account. Do that. Click Board Index (After you log in), then Create Account (This is creating your Game Account), Select mid. Open DAoC portal, click the server, enter your credentials on the right, click play.

boho posted:What race for Shaman? And someone give me a Subterranean build; I assume the modern spell lists are totally wrong. Shaman don't autotrain anything do they? http://web.archive.org/web/20031206055110/www.camelotherald.com/realmabilities/ You can also get spell lists, style lists, etc off that link. Kobold is "optimal", high dex, fast casts. But you stick out like a sore thumb. Troll is kind of a gimmick and really only works in groups with lots of trolls. You basically run in to the fight with your tanks then play from there after enemy melee dps has already ran past you/casters have pre-kited away from you. Believe cave shaman specs are like: 41 cave (last dd/bolt), 32 aug(yellow end. absolutely necessary), 14 mend(leftovers). And no, shamans don't auto train.

Brose posted:Since I have nothing but connectivity issues with the official server, I may as well try out this free shard. I suppose it reverts back to the days where it took forever to level? Not really. The group bonus increases per member of the group instead of mobs chaining together. Leveling as an 8 man group is very fast. It'll take a few days, but still faster than it was. If you want to solo it's slow as poo poo.

I think the issue is one of the game masters/forum dudes/community/notsurewhatheactuallydoes people has been out sick or some poo poo with an eye infection. Also the website has been down for about 18 hours.

At 50 in Mid we have: Wrex (Me) - 50 Warrior Tanreall - 50 Savage Sersly - 50 Savage A couple of other goons that were doing a healer/warrior duo. Not sure what level they're up to. Hit any of us up and we'd be happy to get you in to the guild we're in. (and should be staying in, this time) Buris Kinder. Healers/shamans/runies are definitely the least played in the entire realm, as you'd expect.

Minclark posted:I play a runie but hes level 10 and I also have a healer he just hit 5! Server's repeatedly making GBS threads all over itself, they broke something fierce, and per the usual haven't issued a statement. They just kind of let it roll.

DarkAvenger211 posted:So I just started, I haven't played before so I can see how dated this game is, but I do want to like it so does anyone have any tips to make this nicer? I had the resolution up and all the menus were super small and unreadable, so I turned the resolution down. Can you not resize the map? Or make it fullscreen? Also is there any way to enable strafing while holding the right mouse button? Maps aren't really super important in this game. They're mostly dumb maps without much interaction. Just learn to use your strafe keys. You miss melee hits if you're strafing. It's part of the combat system.
