Not seen any of the names I put on my friends list for a while so assumed people had tried and stopped (ships in the night Septian :) )

I play about 3 nights a week with Jaratha who was in the CUK static group we had in the EU. We have actually both just gone VIP.

Our mains are warforged and have just hit 6th.

Taktikal Unit IV - warforged fighter (2 hander kensei build)
Bookcase - warforged wizard

We've been running around with 2 hirelings and it's been okay so far although the traps are starting to be an issue.

I only started last night and another RL m8 is starting tonight, but i am already looking at buying the 32 point build or Drow because i dont want to grind the 1750 favour to basically drop my 1st 28pt toon in favour of a 32pt build.

Buying just feels so much like cheating but i dont play anything enough to spend half the time grinding for the sake of what $18... �11? Damn a case of 15 beers is almost cheaper! lol

I am thinking either a Drow Thief or Bard type would be fun as i have never played a Thief in DDO... nor in AD&D infact! Or if i go and buy the 32pt build then a Dwarven Cleric/Fighter.

I always played Dwarven Fighter/Clerics or elven Fighter/Wizards on the PnP version. Mind you by the sounds of it, either would fit in well with your Warforged guys.

Any suggestions as its been ages since i have played DDO and cant remember all the mechanics... not to mention getting back into the UI, etc as i have been playing WoW for years interspersed with WAR and more recently Aion (now back to WoW but cancelled account last week again)

I will add you both when i log on tonight and give you a hello when i see you on next m8, see if we cant catch you up and group :)

I bought the 32 point build as I had it on EU and couldn't be arsed grinding the 1750 favour again. Turbine are happy to take my money so everyone is happy :)

I've not taken the drow as 400 favour seems to fall into your lap pretty fast. I've also bought a huge collectables bag as I know what a PITA they become down the line and I can't face juggling dust and shrooms to fit loot into my backpack ;)

I'll try and dig some builds up for you later, working on my 4e Eberron campaign at the moment so not much time and my RPGA game starts in 90 minutes. Feck, must re-read the module :D

Oh we also have a human sword and board, elf fighter (archery base) combo that I think hit 6th before we got altitis:)

I got close to getting the 32 point build but not quite there on EU DDO then went to Aion (back to WoW... etc, etc, etc lol) so dont fancy that all over again :)

Basically gone ahead and bought the 32 point build, Dark Elf (yeah i couldn't wait...), also the account shared 20 slot bank as that was damned handy before, leaving a bit spare for a collectables bag when i get up a bit - glad you mentioned that as it was a right pain untill i found the vendor for them originally! LOL

For those that dont know, buying from the store also gave me 4 char slots too so smiling here especially with the exchange rate at the moment ;)

$43.88 for 4300 points = �26.78

So without a monthly fee of �9, it will pay back in 3 months, then its all free appart from the odd adventure packs which are... ok:

�2.17 for 315 points and a low level pack is 125 - 300 points so very cheap.

All that time 'making back' the spent money I will also be earning points that i can spend on other stuff rather than Drow, 32 Point build etc as honor also earns points... and what do points make? :tehwin:

Do I sound like I am trying to excuse why i bought stuff? Ahhh well, ain't got the time these days to sit for 18 hours straight killing giants on an island just to end up getting j-boots(?) ;)

Just a quick update on how its going...

Right got 4 toons made and partially played them all a little although gonna re-make the cleric to a 32 point build:

Qpid Stunt - Cleric - level 3 - restarting as wrong stat distrib and have 32pt
Qwiet Blades - Rogue - level 5
Qwell DaMasses - Monk / Ranger - level 2/3
Qwick Blade - Fighter - level 2 - deleting to make a Sorc or Wiz

Loving the Monk/Ranger, completely mental damage wise but dies way to easily! Rogue is cool and can solo anything on Hard so far at least...

Really enjoying the Cleric to be honest but going to splash Fighter in there for a bit better THAC0, also i made him with 28pts so going to re-roll for a 32 point build re-using the name.

Thought i would keep you updated incase you wanna add me and get together as I am getting close to being able to group with you guys - well at the levels you were the other week.

Sadly not been on that much since last week and have missed you, Jaratha mentioned you'd been on.

Good to see altitis is alive and well :)

Oh I noticed they have changed the pricing of Turbine points, 5000 pts cost $50 which makes it nice for f2p players who want to splash to open up the premium content earlier.
