its an mmo? solo?

more helpful would be how to group in r10 runs

Appreciate the use of the timestamps!

I would add that you should bring a vorpal weapon(for low-mid heroics), have a way to bypass incorporeality, and can use Bluff as a way to pull mobs more safely.

I would also like to add that no one should ever feel pressured to play on Reaper difficulty or crank up the skulls. Especially if you are new to the game. Play at your own pace.

Hmm - massively multiplayer online. No sure where it says you have to
put up with other player's sh1t if you don't want to. Without solo players
this game would have died years ago, so there's that.

I have to confess I am far from being able to do r10... indeed, I blush to say I am still unclear exactly what reaper mode is, other than more difficult. I can say that I have not been playing for terribly long, but I have only played in a group three or four times, and not terribly successfully then. I mostly felt like I was a liabillity for the group, and frankly I don't have the time to really learn the game well enough to do it justice for folks who are dedicated. I do try to learn a little here and there, on my rare time off that I am not doing something else or actually playing.

Like now, when for some reason I still can't log into the game after a couple days, so I have deleted it and am reinstalling it from scratch.
