Wow, there are a lot of people in the newbie zones now. Chasing events is so fun.

Elswyyr posted:I've played this to lv 21 now, and uh. Does this ever change? Because so far the rifts are worse than WAR public quests, the zone events are like GW2 events but worse, and the combat consists mostly of mashing all your instant abilities. I did the first dungeon too, and my "tanking" was just spamming my basic cleave ability until everyone else killed the mobs. Does the game ever become more complicated/harder? Simple answer is yes, it does get better. Stonefield's atmosphere really sold me on this game and the instant adventures there are challenging if you're lower leveled than the group. The intro area is by far the easiest the game gets. The invasion events get better too (Iron Pine Peaks gets a lot of the good ones) and the invasion bosses actually need to get tanked. Tanking isn't very fun for dungeons though. You'll have more fun healing or dpsing. The best part about Rift is that it's a little bit of everything - fun dynamic events and a wide variety of classes (holy trinity) which makes for fun group dynamics.

Pretty good podcast in case you guys are curious about the F2P conversion: http://mmoreporter.com/2013/05/16/rift-reporter-episode-76-free-to-play-whaaa/ Looks like the main reason for the decision was not short term financials, but wanting to make the game community better in the long term.

In case Raptr doesn't refill though, the base game is only 9.95 on Gamersgate. Should tide you guys over until June 12th. http://www.gamersgate.com/DD-RIFT/rift

Thanks for the help guys. So I think I know what the answer will be, but are the lvl 50 Experts and Raids not worth doing for a fresh 50 with Storm Legion? My brain is telling me that I'm missing out on Ember Isles and fun content, but the powergamer is telling me to do GHRs until 60.

Vermain posted:WFs at the least are actually pretty fast EXP, and I generally found them more engaging than the regular content. What are the daily missions for WF? I was always confused about that and the crafting dailies?

I try to make it. I haven't seen any of the raid content yet and it'll be fun to kill monsters with goons.

Yeah, everything sounds like pay for convenience as opposed to Pay 2 Win. That said, you get question of whether MMO grind lovely by design or because companies want the money.

How's the questing in Nightmare Tide? I didn't really enjoy the Storm Legion expansion and couldn't get past level 52 before getting stumped. Is Nightmare Tide more fun?
