Only 1k......sry but if your ok with that, im sry, i can make 1k in about 10 minutes and i think this is VERY low and this place i farm is for non-items like weapons, its all armor and merchent selling stuff, since all the good things in this game cost alot,
Examples: 15k armor, Fissure armor, 1 billion gold items, things that you need in this game salvage kits, Dye, ale

, and other things of this nature.

This guy must have had some guild-mates run him to Kryta and spent some gold to get superior runes from the Trader, becase he really was a level 1 with 0 hp. He just joined, died, and then either made fun of people or quit (and I assume joined again). I got him on my team for 2 out of 5 games in the arena before I just quit.

If anybody sees anyone with a [Fang] tag, please tell them I hate them all. And if you feel like running someone to Kryta for a few extra K, DON'T!

This is more of an issue of Random Arenas being flat out unbalanced and well...random.

Nope. I've left at 2 before and seen a few people at Droknar's Forge at level 1.

I even have a screen of it if you check out the Adeventures Of Orian Mage Henthmen.

you simply have to do the secondary profession quest & the prerequisite quests before that. you can easily leave presear on level 1 with a little bit more than 1000 xp left to level 2. getting to the ring of fire on level 1 on the other hand is a little bit harder.

I've also seen lvl 1 (and yes they are lvl 1) late in the game. It may be remotely possible to get to Lions Arch etc at lvl 1, if you have teammates running you there and taking great care not to finish any missions or killing any monsters, but basically you have to go out of your way to avoid levelling, and going out of the way to do anything probably isn't in the nature of these guys. So... this will get this post deleted, but IMO they're using a hack, or hacked accounts.

it's more than remotely possible to get a level 1 anywhere before the ring of fire. all you have to do is explore/kill your way to different towns with the help of guildmates. wait, how do you clear maps without leveling up? hmmm i wonder. have the level one die before you kill anything. sounds like hacks to me.

Indecision much?

Anyway, yeah it's possible, but you really have to plan for it, not do any quests to get skills, and everyone in the team has to only run and always avoid killing anything. Could be an interesting project for someone with a really bored guild, but there's a bit too many of them now for me to buy that explanation.

Plus, what would be the point of rushing someone to late in the game at lvl 1? He'd have no skills and wouldn't have unlocked anything for PvP.

DrSLUGFly · Jul 17, 2005, 12:05 PM // 12:05

The point is to get the best armor, then go back to Ascalon and go through the quest (or more likely fight with the best armor on.. there should be an armor filter as well as a level filter on the ascalon arena).

I don't see the point to complaining about it though... I don't see how it hurts me that people do this.

Aniewiel · Jul 17, 2005, 12:15 PM // 12:15

It doesn't really hurt anyone but I think the conundrum is interesting to people. How -do- you get to the Ring of Fire at level 1? I can't imagine...

It used to be like that. I think they changed it really soon after release. Because I tried taking my first rpg char through before level 3 (during the early access) and it said you had to be level 3. Then my second char was allowed though at level 2 IIRC.

Sereng Amaranth · Jul 17, 2005, 06:23 PM // 18:23

My first character had to be level 3. I left at level 4. My 2nd character is still in presear at lvl 9. My 3rd is at LA @ lvl 16.

SisterMercy · Jul 17, 2005, 06:33 PM // 18:33

Still didn't make level 2, huh?

Too bad someone can't run you there.

:S

You don't recieve XP when you are dead, except for when your team wins PvP matches now, not sure how this works with the latest updates as far as PvE goes. Going and getting yourself killed as quickly as possible or staying out of range of XP is an easy way to get far without accumilating any XP. I was out of of pre searing with 750xp, you may be able to do it with less, and any xp gained other than that was by mistake when doing PvP in the Yak's Bend arena. It was a wonderful side project born of boredom and recieved a great deal of laughs(and groans). Seeing as I can no longer get that picture taken at Grenth's temple there was little else to do with the character than delete them. I encourage people to try and get a full party to team arenas in Droknor's Forge. If you are getting tired of the game and want a somewhat challenging project try for this with your guild, the personal satisfaction you get is quite the reward for all your work(or lack there of). Some groups were nice enough to let me hitch hike and run me to areas. It was a lot of fun and I regret nothing except for I wish I would have done more with the character. Full fissure armor would have been the pinnacle.

I've been a level 11 at Sanctum Cay. You don't need to be rushed by anyone to do that. In fact, it's usually one of the very first map points I pick up after coming across the Shiverpeaks. LA->Bergen Hot Springs->Temple of the Ages->Fisherman's Haven->Sanctum Cay. However, I don't generally do that mission until I've gone and collected all the other map points to the west.

How do you make your way to Fisherman's haven from Temple?

It is quite a lot of zones...
