So yeah last time I played was very long ago on classic, was a solo heretic/scout/inf

If i come back I will prolly be solo again, and I was thinking about a warrior/champ/armsman

So couple of questions now

1) do I really need 2 accounts to be any sort of competitive again?
2) is leveling from 1-50 easy now with out a pl or good guild?
3) The toa MLs do they take for ever to do like they used to? I remember raids which would last hours just to kill bosses and stuff
4) Same as 3 but with Cls
5) Do artifacts come easy now? and level quicker?
6) Is soloing as a visible even worth while because I am not to good at switching weapons unless there is like 1-3 to use.

But I was thinking of getting lots of artifacts like battler/malice/shades of mist/gov/winged helm, and prolly more to have a ton of toys to use. If i remember correctly the malice proc was very hurtful to a lot of stats. So that would be my main weapon, with battler or champ weapon as back up.

For soloing 2 accounts would really help. You can buy all your buffs, but they won't be as good as bot buffs.


2) is leveling from 1-50 easy now with out a pl or good guild?


Leveling is extremely fast. I got a druid from 35 to 39 in about an hour in a 4 man PUG doing BG quests.


3) The toa MLs do they take for ever to do like they used to? I remember raids which would last hours just to kill bosses and stuff


You can transfer a 50 from classic and get free ML5, or just buy ML's with Bounty points as you earn them. BPs are easy to get


4) Same as 3 but with Cls


I don't know


5) Do artifacts come easy now? and level quicker?


Buy artifacts with BPs. leveling them is still kinda slowish. But they level anywhere off any MOB or player. You can probably level from 1 to 10 in a few hours if you're killing fast.


6) Is soloing as a visible even worth while because I am not to good at switching weapons unless there is like 1-3 to use.


I never see visible soloers.

You can buy NPC buffs with 2 hour duration. They have lower values than normal buffs, but they are not bad.

Leveling is easy through quests in the battlegrounds, and new repeatable ToA quests at lvl 45+. Champion levels are much easier too because of these quests.

MLs and artifacts can be bought with bounty points or atlantean glass (which you get from above mentioned ToA quests). MLXP is no longer required. Artifacts are prretty easy to level, but you won't be needing as many artifacts as you expect. Many artifacts are inferior to other items.

Soloing as a visible is your main (or only) concern. Expect to be ganked by absurd numbers of stealthers everywhere you go. If you can cope with that, then yeah, there is a lot of fun to be had in this game still.

Your making out to be only stealthers zerge which is not the case... From a stealther point of view visibles are just as bad... If not worse.

For soloing you need to know when and where to solo.
