Greetings-
Many have known my character, Thet Darkhand, a self-professed Harbormaster. It's true, and some have ridiculed his incessant rants as he has offered guidance and favors to those new to Stormreach's Harbor.
Well, as Cannith is the last bastion of new blood to DDO, we (that is, veterans with the aptitude to teach the new players of DDO) have come under the guild title The Last Harbormasters. Entry is simple -- be a very experienced, friendly & helpful player from any other server with extensive quest knowledge and the ability to save a party of 5 helpless from any elite in the Harbor in most level-appropriate situations.
Our goal is to help the new players of DDO get a firm foundation of the initial quests and their objectives in DDO. Instead of bumbling through every quest in a clueless group of 6, we try to take groups of 4-5 clueless with 1 or 2 harbormasters and press the group to its limits. Sometimes this may be normal or hard, other times the group may be savvy enough to complete the hardest initial quests on elite (WWs, Stealthy Repo, Irestone Islet, etc).
Our guildmembers are encouraged to also offer extreme assistance in all harbor-related quests, favor-unlocking for drow and build questions. The most important thing is to remember there is more than one way to skin a drow -- do not impress upon a new player that there is only ONE correct way to play or do any specific quest.
We're looking forward to "new" experienced players signing on with The Last Harbormasters -- a guild of leaders designed to teach the throngs of new players and future leaders of Cannith.
V/R.
