Fired up my Battle Druid and I am having a blast. It took me a good hour to reacquaint myself with his attack sequence. It goes something like this:

Solo Strategy against stealthers.

Wait for perf
Insta root
Insta heal
Get distance
Sic pet
/frenzy
Cast absorb shield
Cast snare
Cast DOT
kite
Cast DOT
Kite
Cast DOT
Kite

If I am camping a bridge, I will put down an essence trap and kite my opponent into it for the BOOM.

Although, If I am up against a charge tank I will just wait for death. Nothing I can do with them.

What a great game flag

You really think that solo strategy will work against 4 scouts and 3 infiltrators?

No. In fact I got rolled a dozen times before I found my first solo fight.

Even solo fights are tough for me. Either they are really good players or I suck. Or maybe my class sucks thinking

@Illmyrin

I think you can still get most of that stuff back. Not your house, or your trophies.
Just go to the main place like in Dunshire or whatever and talk to the merchants.

I power leveled a Runemaster to 50 on Tomptes right before I quit playing. I would totally start her up and gear her of DAoC would ever go F2P.

I resubbed a week ago. I have a 49 Luri Eld I am currently getting a template for. It is super easy to level now, and really easy to get the items you need. I have enough afrits that I just turn them in for glass for my items.

Message Zuzzia in came sometime and we can roll out.

There is also no reason to own a bot unless you want pure red buffs. The realm buffer in CV gives all yellow buffs for only 20 something gold.

It hasn't for years.

Even when the numbers were there, they never changed.

Because remapping your keyboard once per game is too difficult?

If I re-subbed to DAoC right now, I'm afraid I'd just feel like Cutty from The Wire the first time I got ganked by a stealth zerg.

They should open a new F2P server.

Its more than that. Since Wow modern interfaces are way better. Tried to play AO a while back and that interface bites too

/face_confused.

How about an example of one part of the WOW interface that is more intuitive?
