    Go the Social window (type 'o') and click on the "Who" tab. Sort by guild name and look for it. Send a tell to someone in the guild and ask if there is an officer online.

    I think there's a way to even just in-game mail an officer and they can mail you back a guild invite, so you dont need an officer online.

    I dont know which officers regularly login anymore though.

    So, it appears that they are removing Sigils completely from the game soon and allowing everyone to naturally get to lvl 20 without them. They are also adding a few high level dungeons for free. Awesome.

    Might have to get back into this.

    Casual is a revamped Solo for quests that are not Solo Only. Allows for more then one player at a reduced difficulty and loot value from Normal, will be available for all Quests excluding Raids and Solo Only. Currently up on the Test server.

    So quests that aren't Solo-only will have:

    Solo
    Casual
    Normal
    Hard
    Extreme

    Right?

    Casual replaces Solo on any non Solo Only quest. so the difficulty would be:

    Casual
    Normal
    Hard
    Elite
    Epic [If available]

    Yeah, you really want to get a Cleric / Favored soul healer. Or in a pinch a Wizard if you are a Warforged race.

    Clerics are also fairly good soloists if you really must abstain from grouping. But a good cleric never really needs to solo. ;)

    Played some on the ranger, he doesn't seem to be a great solo artist though, might roll a fighter or pally but still unsure about to get on now and try him in a group if anyone is on in the noob zone.

    There's a review and release date for the DDO Update 3.

    http://www.mmorpg.com/gamelist.cfm/game/163/feature/3958/page/1

    Highlights:
    • "On February 3rd, Update 3 will go live on DDO's servers. "
    • "Update 3 removes this sigil system entirely, allowing players unrestricted, non-gated access from level one to twenty."
    • "new difficulty [casual] is available on all quests except raids and solo-only quests, and is catered to players who like to go through quests alone or with a small group, and find normal difficulty a bit too much."
    • "this update introduces four free high level dungeons, from CR (Challenge Rating) 13 to 18"
    • "beholder drinking game", "dragon fight", "endless amusement of sending kobolds rocketing into the sky and to their doom"
    • "Two new types of reincarnation have been introduced as a DDO Store exclusive as well, allowing players to fully respec existing characters, including multi-class choices."

    Hmm... I just typed in the whole article. Oh well. Looks like a good update especially since it's mostly free (appears level respecs cost turbine points).

    This is fantastic update. Will bring even more people into the game i am sure. I think i might even go back to it after this.

    That got mostly fixed in a patch a while ago. They're still pretty painful at high levels (as they should be), but the 1-shot'ing elite traps below L10 were reverted to their previous damage #'s.

    He is refering to a Bug where Elite Traps were doing more damage then Epic Traps.

    There's no inactivity deletion in DDO - accounts from the end of beta should still be sitting around, ready to be reactivated. Customer service should be able to help you, if something strange happened.

    Well the new update with the new quests and how they did away with leveling sigils was enticing enough to make me want to come back, at least casually.

    Edit:

    Correction, i guess i wont be playing. The game crashes during the intro scene instantly, every single time. No idea why, gives no error, just crashes. Apparently it doesn't like the fact i changed video cards from nVidia to ATI. It worked with my older nVidia but not with my newer ATI card.

    Edit 2:

    Ok all is well, got it working. I bought a couple of premium adventures for the more scarce levels. Ready to roll back out.

    Dude, ATi cards are fucking goofy. The things they work with, they do pretty good. Unfortunately, a lot of stuff doesn't work with them so they tank. Still, have you updated the drivers on your new card?

    It's tempting to play again (job+income pending), if only because I wanna see what the game looks like after I get a more modern PC. Having to play with shitty graphics isn't cutting it anymore.

    I haven't had any issues with my ATI card except with this game. But it was solved with a simple "run as administrator" derp.

    Yeah the drivers are up to date.

    Hey wow, good for Turbine on that. :D

    I know there's a lot of people who will scoff at a million due to WoW's diluting of the number, but it's still good.
