Which Sarlonians have Risen from the Dead, and why did you TR?

[Original]

This is exactly my experience so far as well. I am loving every minute of it! I am almost 8, but so far it hasn't felt like a grind at all. For me, it almost feels nostalgic! The first time I took Cedrica through all these quests almost four years ago, it was a MUCH different experience for me than it is now.

I won't be TR'ing Cedrica again. I just needed to fix a few small imperfections, so far so good.

Edit: OH!!! My 1000th post! How perfect is that? lol

Same for me, I am almost level 8 and I still havent done gwylands, tear, greymoon/co6, von's or threnal.
I did do stormcleve N/H/E last nite... but I havent felt the grind yet... I think the higher levels will become a major grind.

Im not sure that they will for me--I love the Gianthold, The Vale, The Jeets Series and Amrath, and would be running those quests for fun anyway. I think that I would be fine if I stayed 16 forever and could get into some GH pugs, and at the same time all the raids. One thing is for sure, instead of hitting GH at 9 or 10, I'm going to wait til prob lvl 12.

I love playing this character, Nostalgic is exactly right Cedrica. And knowing that I don' t have to grind for any gear, has lessened my haste to hurry.

The paly im leveling didnt start GH till 13 (not a reincarnate). Hes 16 and just finished all the GH normals. Still need to go do wiz king elite for full xp (havent taken 16 yet.)

Also dont forget the refuge. The xp is big out there, and well worth a n/h/e round robin. The orchard quests are big as well.

I dont like the refuge quests though And there is nothing that I need from them, So I dont plan on spending alot of time in the Refuge, if at all. Ooooh but I forgot I like the Abbott flagging quests alot too--so much to run at the lvl 16 range

I never thought I'd say this but....isn't leveling FUN!

While I wouldn’t grind those quests either I would suggest running them on Normal and Hard because the XP is pretty good.

But yeah, the relevelling without worrying about grind gear is one of the big plusses for me. I’m actively having to make the decision NOT to reincarnate my rogue so I can tear stuff apart at level 12 with his rad II scimitars.

Yeah the refuge is just to much xp to pass up imo. With a decent group of "knowns" you can bang em out real quick as well. I wouldnt dream of skipping them on a reincarnated alt, though Im sure many will.

I hear ya bout level 12 though. For those of us without min lvl 8 GS lvls 9-12 is like candyland

lvl 9-Bloodstone, Planar Gird, FS greeves, chattering ring, SFGloves, other titan gear
lvl 10-Vorps, smiters, disruptors, banishers (unless you got lvl 8's)
lvl 11-GS items boots of the innocent if you gots
lvl 12- GS weaons
lvl 13-Tharnes, Madstone boots, HOGF, other reaver gear.


Very nice 5 levels. And yeah, I reincarnated a finesse rog into a str fighter, I waited till I had dual lit II khops. The day I finished the second I reincarnated

[Catiriona]

Will probably TR my bard at 20....she started as an Extreme Explorer experiment that I didn't want to reroll again when I died at like 6 or 7. Sheelagh has too many tomes so will lesser TR her whenever it becomes available and if they ever hit 20 I may well try TRing the rogue and possibly the paly... but I don't see that happening anytime soon.

[Kalanth]

I managed to get Kalanth back to level 2... Did not take long to realize that starting over was for the bonus of another +1 was not as thrilling as originally thought...

My take on the TR is that you have to be real careful that you don't jump way ahead of your level. I am waiting to level 12 to get into GH and I may stay there and bank xp well into my next level. Same thing with the desert, I am trying to bank as much xp as possible so that I don't hurry to the vale or shavarath and level past some really good xp. I don't want to find myself at level 17 and be out of options that don't involve a ton of grinding.

If your looking to bank xp there is no reason to go to GH till your 13. Shadow Crypt, Wiz King, Von 1-4, Tempest Spine, Co6 Etc are all good xp before then. Im about 8k from 13 and havent set foot in GH. Ill prolly be well into 13 before I do as we plan on running von 5 n/h tonight for some good xp. Did TS last night n/h/e as well. I also dont see any reason to go into the vale till 16 or 17.

[Mav145]

Started running shadow crypt but have yet to get into the desert. I was rushing to try to get to 12 so that I could get my GS weapons and my disruptors. Then I will head to the desert, I hate the undead area without disruptors. Plus, this will be my first WF trip into that area so it will be a new experience in many ways.

Yep, have ran VONS, CO6, and the others - although I got really sick of CO6 really quick.

I am thinking that TR feels like an extra bubble per level....is that about right?

If anyone gets a run to desert area to farm wiz-king, I would love an invite. The reincarnated character is named Maverickace, he is a level 11.4 WF fighter - Sarlona server.

I originally didn't plan to TR my rogue, but I have decided to go ahead and do it after seeing how much fun everyone else has been having with TR. It will give me a chance to make a few slight improvements and wring out a couple more points of extra monster slaying goodness. The only regret I will still have is giving up my maxed out favor. There are a few quests I'm not looking forward to repeating, but I guess I'll do them anyway. I just won't TR for about 9 or 10 more days as I want to hit my 20th ToD and 80th shroud completions first.

i ransack quests then move on. did shadowcrypt 13 times (11 on n, 1 h/e) did this with many litany flagging quests and once all my friends have full sigil will do this on litany, lvl 14 and skipped co6, von1-4, gh, vale, and desert. you may call this tedious, however, there is no way faster to lvl

I keep a wf'd caster at 10 on another acct so i can run through shadow crypt whenever I want. I usually run n/h then elite till my eyes bleed. I do wiz king a lot after that.

yeah im at the point where i wanna ransack wiz king but i dunno anyone who knows it well enough to farm for xp, ive maybe ran it 10 times total and cant find a path that is fast enough to make it worth it :/

Heres my take on wiz king.

The bulk of the xp comes in optionals. Optional xp is awarded as soon as the optional is completed. I run it during "down time" so no matter what its worth my while.

Sounds good. I'll get my 20th ToD tonight (hopefully), and my 80th shroud next week, so next Sunday I'll be ready to TR. Hopefully your schedule will be better by then.
