    Man just go dwarf because they're rad. Highest possible AC, good melee weapons through racial enhancements, high CON and dwarven spell save bonuses.

    Also there's nothing more manly than a dwarf.

    soloing cleric is basically the easiest thing in the game.

    easier than monk?

    lets say monk is an 8 on a scale of 1 to 10. cleric is 12.

    Today we died to sneaky roaming bubbles of chaos. Then we killed a lot of spiders, japanesey ogres and dead guys and their lovers to make up for it.

    Everyone saved the day at some point, but I saved the day at every point

    I guess you could say it was like I was building a house for a homeless family, and every once in a while Meld or Pip or whoever would stop by and hammer a nail in before going back to making poops

    My cleric is Rank 12.

    Now I just need to grind out some Waterworks and get some cool gear.

    Actually Jammar gave me some amazing, a +1 Heavy Mace of Good, a +1 Heavy Shield that makes my level 2 and below healing spells 10% more effective, and Full Adamantite Plate +2. I have DR 3 and I got a helm with an addition al DR 1.

    Nothing hits me. Thanks Jammar!

    DR of the same type doesn't stack, so DR 3/- and 1/- means you have 3/-, not 4/-

    DR x/- and DR y/Evil will stack (but only for damage that both types of DR apply to).

    I'm level 6 in this

    What can I do at level 6 in this?

    That is where some of the best levels are at! It's also where you tend to start needing to party up to complete quests.

    There is a lot to do.

    You can choose to fight elementals in a volcanic cavern, to murdering near innocent cultists, to solving giant convoluted puzzles in The Pit (of Despair).

    You might want to start leveling up level 4s by playing lvl 5 or 4 quests on hard/elite, so you have a good party for those lvl 6 and 7 quests.

    The quests get better as you level, as you go on to fighting giants, drows, vampires, and beholders.

    Most of the High level guys also have 4-6 characters, so you might try seeing if anyone in the guild would like to join you.

    This guy sucked, he did a move called thunder punch and pretty much had to fight in a completely white screen:

    three bosses, hardest was the troll but the beholder killed 3 of the party:

    Megaman is cool and all but the fans are the worst.

    They take the story so serious.

    I can't see that being good for an online community.

    I have never been more excited for an MMO.

    Seriously, my first gaming memory is trying to beat the spider boss on the first sigma level with my dad.

    We never beat it.
