Mini-Leveling Guide (Technically spoilers)
For those having some issues with leveling. I'm not sure where this came from originally but it was reposted by my guild leader, and contains some decent info about how to find quests at higher levels.
*Where to Quest at Level X*
-General Tips-
-Accept every quest you see.
-Visit every zone.
-Explore since some quest givers are in wierd locations.
-All dungeons pre 40 are soloable so go explore them.
-If you are stuck in a zone on quests, as in they are too hard or simply bugged, go to a different one.
-Spend some time to randomly kill stuff, yes some stuff drops items that start quests.
-Revisit the main towns to search for quest givers.
-Leaving an instance and reforming/joining a group supposedly resets the instance unless it is a single player instance, like the vila quests in Noble District.
-By the minimap there is a button that allows you to change your instance so if the one you are in is crowded click it and switch to another that might be empty.
-When questing kill EVERYTHING along the way. Don't avoid mobs
1-20 finish your destinay quest in Tortage.
20+ It is possible to pick up gathering professions at 20 in Poitain, Purple Lotus Swamp, and Lacheish Plains(DONT GO HERE IT IS BUGGED ATM). These quests give about 5k xp each but you can level up gathering with them. *WARNING* Respecing feats while having crafting/gathering skills will reset those but you won't be able to get the quests again *WARNING*
20-40 Do every quest you see in Connal Valley, Kopshef Province, and Wildlands. Everytime you finish one of these run it through again to make sure you didn't miss anything. Then run through the others. once all are done run through them all again, some quests only become available at upper levels. Make sure to run through Conarch Village, Khemi, and Old Tarantia a few times to see any quests. There should be quests for the 20-40 instances as well that you get as you level up. At 40ish get all the Burning Soul quests(Zelata has about 4 chains into here which you should get if you cleared the first 3 mentioned zones). In total I hat 7 Burning Soul Quests. Also some of the Wild Lands quests lead you into Border Ranges.
35-40 I ran through Black Castle/Pyramid of the Ancients/Treassury of the Ancients at about 38/39 in Kopshef Province and that got me 2 good levels. Although there are few quests in each of these until you hit their level range.
40-50 Do Noble District in Tarantia and Field of the Dead. If you need more XP try grinding mobs in eiher the vilas in Noble District or the big NPC camps in FoTD.
50-55 You get 7 quests for Cistern/Main System in Noble District at 50 and then I think 2-3 more at 52. This is a world zone that has VERY quick respawn so don't attempt without 5-6 people. It also means you can see people not in your group. If you get a good group its a decent walkthrough. I didn't enter the undead area much but in the Main System sewer area the mushrooms were scarce.
50-60 Eiglophian mountains
52-57 It is possible to grind these levels in the cannibal caves in Eiglophian Mountains. I will grind here till about 59 since it doesn't look like Eiglophian mountains will have enough quests to take me to 60.
*Bugged Quests Section*
-Noble District-
-The Thief- As you get to the second floor on your left will be an entrance with vines on either side. Go to the left set and run by them spamming U to try to climb. After that there is another set of vines that can't be click but must be instead climbed using U. Experiment with positioning. You need between 300 and 350 climbing I believe.
-Noble Beauty(sp?) - The NPCs don't turn hostile after talking to them so you can't kill them. I have heard rumors of trying to swing and them turning hostile but haven't had any luck.
-Arena in Noble District Bar - All these quests are buggy. If you can't do it drop it and try to restart it. The first part where you have to kill Aquilonius(sp?) is very bugged so try to talk to him and swing and eventually you will kill him.
-Black Skulls - One guy is by a pool of blood by the Cistern Dungeon. Another guy patrols in the north of the Noble Open Square type area, Middle north of the zone, The last guy is by the burning bodies in the barracks area if I recall correctly.
-Hopshef Province-
-Enter the Pyramid in Pyramid of the Ancients- Quest doesn't Update so you can't get the next part of the chain.
-Body part quest in Pyramid of the Ancients - The body parts sometimes bug and don't respawn. You could try to exit instance and reform group then go back in.
-Rescue Chick in pyramid of the Ancients - Won't respawn after first person gets it. You could tyr to exit instance and reform group then go back in.
-Destinty Quest - There is a climbing point near the stone arch by the bandits, need 100 to climb it. DON'T KILL THE DEMON BEFORE YOU DO THE LOTUS ON THE ALTAR. If you do you have to either exit the instance and re-enter or relog. (Thanks jattomcat)
-Wildlands of Zelata-
Wounded Child - The child has a VERY long respawn time. One trick is to check your instances, by the minimap there is an arrow where you can click to change it, and if you see a new one pop up switch to there and run to here location, she is at the bottom of the cliff, to see if she is there.
And for any of those getting griefed in a zone: just switch instances. It's the little arrow by the mini map. There's usually around 3-5 instances per zone.

Herald of Xotli
At level 20

How have they been doing in terms of patching in content and resolving issues?
They are patching twice a month now I think. Maybe once a week (wednesdays). I forget, but they aren't doing it twice a week regularly now. It still seems like every patch is fixing minor bugs you did not know about, and nerfing your main. My sub is active until the end of the month so I will check in periodically to see what has changed. In the meantime I'll just log in and gank lowbies.
Chances are this wednesdays patch will be the normal thursday and monday patch.

"First patch"?
It's over a month into launch. Just because they changed to less-frequent patching schedules doesn't mean the first one needs to be shite. You act like they make these decisions on the whim and fixes/patches aren't planned well in advance.
Also, due to the lack of cool gear and loot, the grind is actually worse than WoW. Am I doing something wrong? I want some sort of tangible reward for my efforts. (This may be why I love Diablo so much)
We'll just have to tell him that the internet is a series of tubes where you communicate with others by speaking into your mouse. If they can't hear you you're not speaking loud enough.
The point im making is its the "First patch" on the new distribution schedule. i thought it was pretty obvious that patching twice a week meant more frequent and smaller patches. And it's pretty coincidental they switched to a once a week schedule and talked about how they wanted them on the test server longer a week or so after the necro "buff" went live and turned out to be a nerf that reduced their dps across the board. AND the DT coeffecient fix that ended up affecting the HoX as well.
So they decided to test the pathcesmore to fix it, which means that first patch was most likely the normal monday patch just delayed. not the "first patch of the game" the "first patch on the new schedule." do u really think i was that dumb?

Not at all. I was just implying (I guess too vaguely) that I don't think Funcom deserves any leniency at this point with their patches and updates. I don't expect much at all from this coming week's patch, since they've failed again and again at fulfilling any sort of expectations I had for this game.
They know what's wrong with the game. They know what needs fixing. Time and time again I see mind-boggling updates that address little to nothing of what really needs addressing.
Does anyone remember when they said the new content update and PVP system would go live sometime in June? It's now July and we've heard nothing about these things since.
Here's some of what was said back then.. yet nothing at all has been changed since.
And the "details" promised "next week" never came.
They forgot this post then.
If you roll on an RP-PVP server, there is less rampant gankage.
Also, the instance system, although I hate the fact that it exists, serves as an escape mechanism from assholes.
It's like.. there's a really, really ugly chick in your office who always loiters around your desk. It annoys you to no end... but while she's there your boss seems to ignore you, leaving you free to slack off.
I guess it's a trade off?
You can reach level 19 100% free of PvP encounters if you so wish
I hear white sands is pretty much the worst pvp environment in the entire game, so I wouldn't go there anyway. It's a shame too, because it's really pretty
Maybe if I run another character through I'll go PvP, but for my first time with the content, I wasn't going to worry about which places I could or couldn't go.
And there's a lot of good quests to level up quick there too.
So far, Im enjoying the game though it feels somewhat bland - I cant quite put my finger on whats missing, maybe Im just tired of this sort of game. Plus, releasing a game in this day and age without titles, badges, surnames, etc seems a shocking oversight.
I am going to enjoy very much the cries of agony from the Necromancers when the number of pets gets fixed
If you think titles, badges, and surnames are the only thing they "forgot" to finish before release... god bless you. The real reason for my reply: They already "fixed" necromancer pet quantities... they gave them more.\
I agree on all counts except that quest do feel a bit more important as you level. Many NPCs will start treating you differently as you level up, as if you're more of a hero. Sometimes they refer to your earlier exploits, which is pretty cool.
Other than that, you're right. Loot does suck balls.

This is the most fucked up shit I've read in a long time. I hate to say it since I kind of liked AoC, but I think it might be a not so good idea to include too much "mature content" in an MMO.
Like many things in this world, it looked really good on the drawing board. But we threw in the Human factor, and it got all dicked up. What was the PA comic? The total fuckwad theory? Normal Person + Crowd + Anonymity = Total Fuckwad
That was as hilariously funny as it was pathetically sad.
They did? That was foolish of them. That will definitely come back to bite them in the end - its obvious Necromancers will be nerfed. Anyone who thinks that ISNT going to happen... well, they are blind to the lessons of the past.
And ha ha, I realise many things were left out - but those were fairly glaring omissions that jumped out at me immediately, having spent the last 3 years playing CoH

You know they were gonna make that guy dance for them afterwards, right?
I agree with Djiem, though after the laughter wore off, I'm left feeling dirty.
Comfortable, permanent
Undisputed, every tense
Not a trace of what went left
More equal than the best
Unparalleled success
Everybody, V-impressed
It's disturbing at times to play mmos and know you are playing with guys like that.
pleasepaypreacher.net
It looks pretty nifty. I think it's this one.
That would be awesome, I keep reading the book snips between loading screens and wondering about the stories themselves, since the villains and heros in the game seem to be pulled directly from the literature.
pleasepaypreacher.net
I dunno, had they not used the word "gank", the fact they did this on a RP-PVP server is awesome. Instead of only having regular assassins and robbers, we now get rapists on the roads of Hyboria.
