Hello all,

I last played daoc in May 2007 (I think). I havent found any suitable alternatives, tried many though!

I've read up on a lot of changes since then. I have some remaining questions about gearing up and farming money. If anyone has a moment to spare, I'd appreciate some answers.

1. It seems that in recent templates ml10 items are being used, as well as ml10 weapons. My old template was sc'd armour parts + some artifacts and leggies (nightshade). I think my armour procs were mainly ablatives.

So: can someone explain stuff like: what procs are the norm now? and why ml10 stuff is now being used? What is the norm for armour? Is it easier to get, or does it just take plats?

2. If it does only take plats: I've been told farming pictisch camps for plats is recommendable. Do you agree? I have like 5p left (Im guessing due to rent payments) so I'll need to spend some evenings farming. Also: as I'm ML10 on all my chars, shall I sell my bp's to get started?

3. Where can I read up on the 'dragon' quests? Ive seen people use 'dragon items', Im assuming theyre from these quests. Not sure at all.

Love to hear from you.

Regards,

M

I'll take a stab at this.


1. Procs -> Omni procs and snare procs are the norm, and maybe 1-2 ablatives. Some also use heal procs. All a matter of taste. Why ML10 stuff? Good ToA bonuses. Norm for armor? Crafted / ML10 / SI dungeon chest piece / dragonslayer armor


2. Farming pictish camps works decently. You can also farm either items, or scales, or glass for sale value.


3. No clue, google. You can buy dragon items from housing or with scales, which is a currency that drops from mobs in the dragon zone.
