I played AC back in the day (till the end of 2004) then switched to World of Warcraft for several years. I have not played much of any game since 2007 due to work; however, I recently quit work as I will be starting a graduate school program this fall and well I find myself having spare time for the first time in a few years.


Back in the day, my main character was Logan Silvermoon. I played primarily on this server (same char on DT and VT as well). I spent some time figuring out my account info and finally managed to log in after several hours of effort


I logged into WE earlier today and I realized that I barely remember how to play this game. I am certain several things have changed, and I will probably log in every now and then to check things out.


Anyways to get to the point, I left AC along with the majority of the core group I played with. I am writing this post to say "hi" and to see if any of the old-timers are still around.


Oh, and I noticed that the level cap was moved to 275. Is there any tangible benefit of leveling that high? Training a few new skills and maxing them out seems pointless, though the jump from level 126 to 239 was insteresting. Anyways, I plan to play the game very casually (and possibly not for long) so the level cap probably does not matter.

Hi, once you get all your skills maxed, the only benefit from 275 is an extra skill credit. (You get one at 250, too)

WB, and luckily, AC is much less addicting than WoW so you should be ok

Definitely no danger of me getting addicted. I am mainly curious about any changes/who still plays. The max I will be playing is a few hours a week for one month, till grad school starts.

Hey Logan, I remember you back in the day. The 275 cap basically is just for the extra skill creds as was already stated, by about 240-250 you usually have all your skills maxed and any extra xp you have goes to augmentations. Airmail has every aug he can use and everything maxed at lvl 275, and I still have 21 bil unspent.

I don't think airmail appreciates being called old


Is there anything specific that is worth doing for a super casual player who will probably get tired of playing for more than a 30 minute stretch? Don't get me wrong, I loved AC back in the day, but I only activated my account now because I am bored and was curious about the state of the game.

Naja Empire -> Indestructable (few other guild names, but basically the same guild) -> One of the three founders of Exempt (Dire, Dk, myself). I think I am under "Lifestone Express" at the moment. I never recalled changing tags, but I must have around the time VT came out as that was the name of our VT guild.
