So what's the point?

[Armus]

I'm bored already! LVL 25 wiz with a max destiny and a few in others for two twists. My FoD DC hits a 55 and SP is a 48. Sure I could get a bit higher SP with a heck of a lot of work but why?

Spidersilk robe - check. High high spell power - check. High lore on the eles I use - check. That which does not die instantly gets the mess knocked out of it. And I'm doing this all without items in my head, neck or wrist slots - I have nothing to put there that doesn't give me a buff I already have.


So why am I here? I mentioned to the devs before (and they agreed at the time) that mage gear needs a serious rework. All we can hope to obtain is +int items, a set of +12% lore items, >+90 damage enhancement item(s), +focus items and +hitpoints. This really isn't that many items especially with the slots and such that allow for stacking. And now, we have flex shards that make that even easier.

I'm far from the top, sure, though i think I'm close on intel at a 62 sustained (not counting limited temp buffs. With those I could max out at about 74). I don't want to grind for months and months just to add a few points here and there that really won't make a huge difference. So what's left to do?

[arminius]

I recommend:

The Wire
Deadwood
Game of Thrones
Buffy the Vampire Slayer
Firefly

When you're done with that, you can come back, and it'll be a whole new game again.

I have nine active characters though and it'll take me till doomsday to be where you're at with your Wiz, so I'll be here when you get back.

Because you don't want to be a gimp in Epic Elite? Other than that, no real reason.

So what's left to do?

Not be gimped in Epic Elite.

[HatsuharuZ]

Well, you could TR into something that isn't a wizard. Try being a cleric and do all you can to get good DCs on your spells if you want a challenge.

[Phidius]

So, let me get this straight... you are complaining because everything is too easy for you, and you want them to give you some better gear to chase after so that you can... make everything even easier?

That about sum it up?

[Rawel_San]

What Faent said.

Also I'm really happy you're doing so great slotting everything most people I know have a heck of a time
slotting just the essentials, +8 con, +8 int, +3 insightful int, +3 enchant/necro/conjuration, (greater) spell pen
IX, Arcane aug IX, shroud hp item, shroud sp item, torc, +1 except con/int, +2/3insight con, +2 alch con and
that's just a couple of the things I like. Considering belt slot is taken by lionheaded (if the ***** ever drops it)
bracers by demon's consort and it's nice to have a 3 piece abishai for the dps at least as swaps that's a hell
of a lot stuff to get/slot and I'm not even talking about the cha I need for no fail res scrolls, good luck and all
the rest of stuff it's nice to have. I have so much swap gear on my caster I have trouble looting anything.

The Wire

Lol, I read this as The Wired... "You obviously aren't distancing yourself from society enough by playing DDO so go become a God Of The Internet and grapple with what reality and self are."

On another note, Wikipedia says that my university offers a course on The Wire.

@OP, grab a friend and try to duo some of the most difficult content, hard tod, lob, epic elites, etc.

[Meowin]

So why am I here?

No idea. Did you consider leaving already? Might help you to get rid of that "problem".

[cru121]

Try sticking around for a few updates - perhaps some addition/change/nerf will finally allow you to ragequit with honor.

[grayham]

@ The OP.

Nothing wrong with what you said, except you could easily have asked it 2 months ago when legacy epic's and Raids were endgame. That's just how MMO's work. They have a ceiling.

Maybe try.....

Completionist?
Another class?
Perma death?
Setting up learning runs of quests/raids to help the Newbies?

First of all you can give us a breakdown of your 55 dc fod and 62 sustained int.

He actually did in another post link above.

OP if so bored either roll a new toon or take a break. Theres a lot to do if look around.

[Lonnbeimnech]

Have a look in the achievements section, things like solo shroud, solo evon6 , duo hard abbot, or duo elite ToD. There is still challenge in the game if you look for it.

[PNellesen]

Well, you could TR into something that isn't a wizard. Try being a cleric and do all you can to get good DCs on your spells if you want a challenge.

QFT.

Or better yet, roll up a NEW Cleric and try getting good DCs... You won't be bored, I promise

[Armus]

Thanks to all the replies that took my concerns seriously and resisted juvenile flaming. I haven't decided what to do yet.

Obviously there a ton of equipment I could get but to what extent? A harder hitting fireball or more sp? Spending months and months running the same quests hoping to see a seal or shard just doesn't sound fun. The gain for the effort isn't worth it.

I may try soloing odd things like shroud, it sounds like a challenge. I'm still thinking of a tr except that I hate leveling. I could add another 5 spell pen by next life and be pretty tight for epic elite.

[firemedium_jt]

I just found out that the monsters ressurrect like we do and we r locked in this eternal conumdrum.

All kidding aside. I just made a wiz14/rog2. And all I do is heal myself and kill stuff. It is a nice break from my clr18/ftr2 generalist that does it all including babysit pugs.

I want u to realize that this is a great time to get bored of your tune and try something different. With stones of xp and vet 2 u can get a high lvl tune quickly to enjoy any quest in the game.

I suggest u either multi role that tune. Maybe try to get the melee up especially if u don't have umber sp.

For a real challenge multi class a clr or go fav soul. U will have to have thick skin though but I bet u Can handle it.

I also have about 4 accounts. 2 vip. Turbine said I could move my vip around every 3 monthss if I want to play a stone xp guy on another account. I have the expansion and most packs I need on my main account so no need for vip maybe. Build up some ddo pts on other accounts.

U also may want to slow things down a bit and look around. Maybe really read thee storylines or run some con content u havnt In awhile.

So what's left to do?

Go to Disneyworld, of course!!

And hey, you won't even have to wait in long lines. Throw a disco ball, FOD, and you're first on the ride!

(Ok.. humor aside..)

Play a different class. The experience varies greatly depending on what you're playing. It breathes new fun into the game!

TR your current guy? Make a new Alt?
Play a druid?
Make a barbarian with over 2K hitpoints?
Design an all new flavor build?

Lots of fun options left. It's up to your imagination!

[MRMechMan]

Bang out some fvs/wiz/sorc/barb PLs

Get completionist.

Uhhhhh.


The raid I guess, when it comes back...

Roll a new character?

[twigzz]

Indeed roll a new toon. I would have quit this game years ago if I only had 1 toon. Same with TR'ing. TR'ing is much more fun IMO. You don't level past content too quick and usually run stuff you normally wouldn't. Plus some of the PL's are great to have.
