There was a quest we would run out of Qal to the south to a bone castle. Then you have to open doors in a certain order- the final reward a chest with loot if I remember right. I think you had to go through like 3 castles.

Can the Frohr (spelling?) quest still be done? That's the cold one I think. I did the bone castle quest several times and feel like doing it again like 10 years later for old times sake.

Are there similar quests where you have to kind of follow a path and do certain things to advance that can be soloed? I usually can't manage to group quest because of time constraints.

Thanks guys for your help!

You are probably referring to the three tower quests or soul fearing. There was numerous chests at the last room but only one was good and was being camped.
Frore robe and its quest is still available.

Sword of Lost Light is similar and it's soloable, but you've gotta start a new toon from level 5 unbuffed for the first dungeons to be fun. It's a great tour of Dereth though, and I'll never forget when I accidentally stumbled upon the last dungeon that takes you to the direlands for the first time since the original days after collecting all of the keys. Guardian of Lost Light is tough to solo when the sword is still useful though (pre-250 base skill).

I would like to do Frore again though, still haven't since way back when. Upper/Lower Shade Stronghold is another great old quest, but isn't soloable (literally, since you need a fellow in both dungeons at once).

That make me think...any other mmo ever used two groups to navigate a dungeon like AC did?

Thanks guys- yeah that was the quest- Soul Fearing. It's crazy to come back and see kill quests. I don't remember those from the old days (like wisps)- reminds me of other games. I actually don't mind it so much. If you're grinding anyway. I'm going to do some exploration of AC Wikki to find some more quests.

I honestly don't think ANY MMO has had the depth of gameplay and team dynamics that AC has.

Most these days boil down to a race to level cap and then raids till you die of boredom.

Best thing about AC was that it was originally designed for you to NEVER be able to hit level cap at 126. How many years was it before anyone did?

I think AC is the only MMO that has a soft level cap. Every other game once you hit the max level you can't increase your skills at all, just grind for gear and shit
