Hi i haven't played Daoc since ToA. My favorite server was always mordred and all my chars are there. I have a few questions. 1: Since mordred is totally dead now can i transfer for free to a regular server? 2: If not, the last time i played the best thing was to level a necromanser and power level another character from grannies mobs in emain. 3: Are there better faster ways to level now? 4: Whats the played time from 1-50 if you get power leveled? I have 2 accounts that i would activate. 5: Also are there mounts in the game now? 6: approximately how much does the entire game cost to upgrade from toa to the newest expansions. 7: Can you buy them as a direct download? 8: Are there servers that give more xp, 9: and can you have chars from all realms on 1 server like mordred, like alb hib and mid chars on 1 ymain server? 10: How does the ywain servers work? They are all one cluster in RvR? Lastly, what are some main things i should know that is different since ToA? How does this game compare to WoW now? Thanks in advance.

No transfers to or from mordred. They were talking about it a couple of months back but we havn't heard anythign new since...




Necro is still one of the best PL and farm classes in the game. The frontier has changed though and there are several new and better PL spots around.




Fastest way afaik is to farm Rassa (ToA encounter). There are also task dungeons that gives you a repeatable kill task in a nrearby instanced dungeon and a pretty big chunk of xp when you complete it.




8-24 hours depending on how you PL.




Yes.




All expansions are free. Only thing you have to pay for is the subscription once your free trial is out (everything is included in the trial btw)

Mordred, but it's dead




Yes


It's all one server. The only thing that's seperated is the housing zones. You get 10 different lobbys though, meaning you can have 100 chars on each realm.
Oh and you also have to add -ywain# when you /send or /invite someone unless they are on the same server as you are.

Thanks for the answers, Me and my half brother used to play, he just got out of the army and we are considering coming back. We probably will try it. Especially if the expansions are free. One last question, about how many people play total on all the ywain servers? 10,000 ? Is there any way to tell?

It starts getting laggy at 3000+. Or it stays laggy 24/7 according to some. I play Gaheris, we are lag-free.

ok so i download the full client http://l3-cdn2.nap.eamythic.com/daocpatch/installer/DAoCSetup.exe there and its all the expansions? I only have like 14 gigs free left on my hard drive, how many gigs is the whole game with all expansions? If i don't have room can i install to my USB external hard drive? I got wow installed on one of my usb hard drives.

6gb or something I think. DAOC doesn't need system registry or anything, so you could install it to a USB drive if you wanted to, but loading times might be a bit long.

Are you sure? last time i downloaded all the expansions for a trial account it was like 15 gigs for just the setup files, don't know how they could cut it down to 6 gigs since then. Just right click your install folder and do properties till it says how big the folder is. I still have the original installed and its 4.28 gigs. Think its up to ToA.

Edit: Ok nevermind i uninstalled and redownloaded the full game client and it says space required 4.5 gigs.

That's because you used to have one client installed for pretty much every expansion. Now it's all packed into the labyrinth client.
