What do you do with your spare time in DDO?

[Kromize]

What I mean is, while you aren't in a quest, selling/repairing etc... What do you like to do? Be it do low lvl quests, slay kobolds, jump, dance, blow random kisses...tell me! I'm interested in what other people do. And in return, I'm telling you what I like to do right now!

First of all, I really like ham. So, a lot of times, I look for Tasty Ham. ;)

I find Tasty Ham a lot too, because I'm just that good. :cool:
http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y132/Stalker7d7/ScreenShot00070.jpg
And, of course, I love to eat Tasty Ham.:D
http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y132/Stalker7d7/ScreenShot00071.jpg
Next, if I'm done eating tasty Ham, I like to jump around the city!(sadly, to run into a lot of awkward invisible barriers. :(
http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y132/Stalker7d7/ScreenShot00084.jpg
Now, for some extra fun fun. I like to dance with kobolds!
http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y132/Stalker7d7/ScreenShot00072.jpg
Make monuments with kobolds!
http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y132/Stalker7d7/ScreenShot00075.jpg
Oh, and...BBQ anyone?

[Samadhi]

Troll the forum out of full screen mode and wait for something to do :D

[Kalari]

I tend to go into the desert kill a few gnolls (even though I hit the 3000 mark I just hate them lol) Then Kalari will greater teleport to the mouth of the Volcano and meditate while staring at the view. I have photos just got to up load them lol i'll get around to it ^_^

Other then that as I mentioned in another thread I shop, its a habit of mine :)

Seriously its not a problem...o.o:p

[theblaz]

T take off my FF item and then teleport until I fail.

See how close I can get to the ground before throwing it back on.

Sometimes I play this game while drunk. I tend to die a bit more frequently then.

[xanvar]

I tend to find a high place to randomly cast haste or jump on unsuspecting passerbys.

[Kromize]

Oh, just thought of another one...Sneak-Hump people! ;)

[ShaeNightbird]

Dress up nice, go to some lovely place, relax and watch the sun set. Of course, sometimes I have to kill everything in the zone, but...

[jjflanigan]

In my spare time in the game I like to log out of the game and go do something else ;)

Man, those would be a cool item for turbine to sell. I'd pick up a couple different "stoned" critters for my desk!

I can't remember the name of that game. I know its been given one in a FR novel.

[DoctorWhofan]

1. maintenance, always that.
2. fend off a dozen requests for a cleric.
3. troll the forums
4. check and see ifthere is a quest I want to do with a LFM.
5. Hang out in the Harbor and answer newbie questions over General.
6. RL, sometimes
7. DungeonRunners sometimes
8. Go downstairs and play Viva Pinata
9. /poke people I know and often have world shattering conversations with them.
10. surf the Brokers and AH for bagians and/or mock the insane prices
11. and finally, when all else fails, do a TS run. Funny, many days end up at this number.

Hehe, ya. I thought that they would be cool to have IRL too. :D

[oogly54]

There is always a loot run to do. Offering of blood, Spiders, Desert, TBF, Rez Ring, Xorian, Etc. Spectral gloves, +2 tomes, Bloodstone spellstoring and grieves, quick cash, rez ring, girds and gardes all sell well. Of course this is also why I am bloody stinking rich, BWAHAHAHAH! These things are always secondary to my raid addiction. Several times I have had all 6 main toons on timer for all seven raids. Thats 42 raids in less than 3 days. I did say addicted.

Wow...wow...thats like 30 hours of game time at least in 3 days...

Exercise is your friend. ;)


Hehehe

I don't remember the specific name, but I do remember that it was played by the Oblodarans (sp?), the psionicist drow. It was the drow word for "trust" if I'm not mistaken.

Globe of darkness, levitate powers over a chasm, first to chicken out loses.

I have a weird memory for the mundane and inapplicable.

[JakLee7]

desert loot runs
that really is an easy way to pass the time, check for bloodstone, spell storing ring, kill some undead - wash, rinse, repeat.
Also those gnolls by the elementals but as a paly that air ele that spawns on the path can really be a pain.

[oogly54]

:eek:

Hehehe

Not really
Reaver takes about 20 minutes each. 2 hours total.
Queen takes 10 minutes each with three man. another 2 hours minutes.
Titan takes about 30 minutes each. (non completion) 3 hours
Shroud takes about 60 minutes each. 6 hours.
Hound takes 20 minutes. 2 hours
VOD takes about 45 minutes. 4 hours
Abbott is not part of this, never have completed. I retract my previous statment and make it all 6 raids for 36 raids. have done this twice total so far. Although I have had a lot of fun geting all my toons ready for all the raids and then going berserk. The new opening mechanism kind of lead me into doing this. i dont even need anything from any of the old raids, but it is still fun to do. (aka addiction)

Don't forget about the 4 pre-queen quests, and von1-4... :/

[transtemporal]

I either do loot runs, favor runs, admin or side projects. A side-project might just be a spell i want to try out on a specific creature or verify a feat effect or a quest i want to get to know better. An example might be to "try and use Harm to heal the Venerated in Faithful ********".

[Kromize]

Hehehe, nice. So...does it work? Or have you tried yet?

And I wonder if finger of death would rez the venerated? :/

[transtemporal]

No I haven't done that one yet. I'd hoped Lithic would test it. Heh. The funny thing is, I forgot that I had the side-projects list until I looked in my diary. :)

The other ones are "Test medallions w picking soulstones in corridors in Titan", "Test medallions w autogather in corridors in Titan", "Test orchard rat pile w/o lingering aoe", "Test damage against portals w true law", "Suss out Tempest Spine", "Test trading cylinders in gwylans", "Confirm Rapid Shot/Rapid Reload and Haste RoF w light/heavy repeaters"

[Medic11]

Grab Kevarious, my Lv 16 bard and head to a vendor of sorts. Then just start giving customers GH and inspire competance.

or...

Grab Marit, my Lv 16 cleric and head to a tavern. Then start healing people that just had to recall out of a quest due to an untimely death.

[Kromize]

"Test damage against portals w true law"

I can confirm that it doesn't work. (; +2 true law greataxe of GCB...ya...no true law dmg. :/

[transtemporal]

I can confirm that it doesn't work. (; +2 true law greataxe of GCB...ya...no true law dmg. :/

Yeah... but true chaos does and anarchic doesn't, lol. They must exist in a quantum state of lawfulness. :D

Na, it's just bugged... Alignment damage isn't supposed to work on inanimate objects...Or so I've heard...which does make sense...

[oogly54]

Those aren't part of your timer time. You can prepare yourself for all the raids and not be on a single timer, then you can start your fisrt raid. The pre reques can take me much longer than running all the quests because I am not focused on doing them.

I think your confused at what I was talking about. I was talking about the total playing time. together, prepping for the raids and doing the raids, that around 30 hours of playing time in 3 days. Not counting the time you spend while not raiding. To me(and other people), that's a lot of time spent playing...:eek:

Oh, and von1-4...yea...part of your timer time...:/ Considering that you can't do them until you get the quest again...same with queen 6 man...

[Osharan_Tregarth]

"Test orchard rat pile w/o lingering aoe"

DONE! You can pk the rats one at a time as they appear, or just climb down to the bottom of the hill away from where they spawn, and put the aoe down there. Takes a little bit longer, but still doable. You gotta climb back up the mound to get the rats to run down to your aoe spell tho. And don't jump down, or the buggers run off in random directions for a bit.

[Osharan_Tregarth]

I generally have a movie or something going on the other monitor, and I spend my in-game time in a tavern, jumping from table to table around the room without touching the floor.

Awesome, thanks Ish! I missed those little guys, now they can be reunited with my firewall! :D

[transtemporal]

OK, I did wonder whether my quantum explanation was a bit overcooked. My back-up argument was "gremlins" but I didn't want to start another flame war over gremlins. Too many good people died in the first one.

[transtemporal]

Hehehe, nice. So...does it work? Or have you tried yet?

And I wonder if finger of death would rez the venerated? :/

I don't think it does. I tried harm last night - nada. The best solution was dropping mass inflict wounds for the live mobs to get aggro, turtle up and let the tanks kill the undead mobs and then the live mobs. They didn't completely ignore the venerated, but enough to get through.

Hmm, I'm not sure I understand exactly what your talking about now. But it sounds interesting! :confused:

Fellow, I know. It did make a bit of sense when I wrote it but then it veered off into strange and mysterious venues, a bit like Steven Spielberg at the end of "A.I". :)

I actually think you are confused at what part has to be done in three days in roder to be on timer for all of them. The pre requs do not have to be done in that three day window. I could spread that over a month before hand and then do all the raids simultaneously. So it is NOT 30 hours in three days. It is the total amount of time to comlete the prerequs and the raids minus the time to comlete the prerequs since they are not part of that three day timer. Sure the time to do all of this is 30 hours, but not in three days. I am not doing this every three days, which would constitute doing the preraids within the 3 day timeframe.

[Kromize]

Yeah, well...When I first read ur post I got the impression that you ran them all every 3 days...:/

Still...crazy...

Anywho...you don't just have fun(with spare time) at all? Always loot loot loot, more loot for you? :/

[Kalari]

Another thing I remember is the chase game. When me and a few of my friends arent questing we play either the try to find each other or chase each other threw the marketplace, harbor and houses. Its fun, also my buds love to see how high they can get and we take pictures (once again I really need to up load them.) Pictures for me are a given specially if something embarrassing happens to a party member soon I will create an online album just of embarrassing shots ^_^

[branmakmuffin]

I sit in the Phoenix and throw peanut shells at the other patrons.

[GORAK]

I run around the harbor, marketplace and some of the houses and only cure/heal any warforged that I see.
