little advice needed :)

Hello, do hib/pryd still have /level 30? If so what would be the fastest char to level from 30-50.. will probaly spend 70% of my time solo and dont have any gear, tho that probaly could be a arranged if needed alot
Prefer something that do kill at a decent speed without too much dt, was thinking maybe a druid, would have the ablity to both grp and solo decently?

Thanks

silly edit timer.. was thinking maybe a vw, tho i guess low qual weap would be pretty bad i know there is a lvl 31 quest that can be done with little help

How well do they do at 50 in PVE? can they drop orange cons without too much dt unbuffed?

First of all I need to say what I say to everyone posting here go to www.prydwen.net - thats where the hib population hangs out

Druids are good for groups and solo play yes, only if you spec for a solo life you often find that you lag some buffs and healing, which in turn often leads to people telling you to go bugger of and dont come back till you respced :/

VW's do realy well solo also at level 50, but from what I'v played in VW's then you'd really want your equipment to be top qua. They simply cant take the same beating over and over again due to the cloth armour, so you need to get in lots of hits fast for high damage and not to many misses.

I class I found did really well in both groups and solo are the champions (pimping my own main class), DD, debuffs, selfbuffs really helps on the downtime, and they can pack loads of damage as Large weapons or be a nice bunker as a shield + one hander. Also Hero's isent that bad to solo really, with the right equipment you'll only lose around 20 to 30 % on yellow orange mobs, so dosent take that long to regain. If you like mage classes an animist is a great soloer, tho you have to learn to play them first and untill you do you'll have good deal of downtime while waiting for mana. But there is nothing like a pet class that can pile orange mobs with easy and dosent really need to be scared in case of a red con. (ofcause depends on your set up ) Wardens are also a great solo class that has alot of offer in groups, and downtime isent that bad with wardens, they are also always welcome in groups



ps. we lost /level 30 in the last patch so its from level 20 and on for now.

we have it more often these days then we use to, but we normally dosent hold on to it for long. Besides there is loads of better places to level then in DF

played in hib ONCE, bet i can't even find my way from magmell to TNN without getting lost anymore Finding xp spots will probaly be close to impossible.. hehe.. going for a Druid with 7regrowth, 14nuture and 12 nature, hopefully it can get me grps while i can solo yellows without it taking a year

What dungeons are good for a lvl 20?

Grom you are getting old.

Spag den is NW of Howth until you reach canyon then north along it.

Stuff near the town north of the grove should also be good hunting in S.I.

Oh and the standard offer to any without houses:

The Willow Tavern (3354 west of Meath enterance) is open for all.

As well as great food and drinks you can find:
Bindbush (so you can /release house)
Porters to DL/Cain/Grove/ToA
Siege merchant
Healer (cheaper then ones on mainland)
Vault Keeper

Thank you Aran

Well in my opinion Druids suck solo. Having got one to Lvl 50, and currently having another at 33 I'd suggest that if you absolutely must play one, then you ought to spec Regrowth/ Nuture and just endeavour to get a group. Forget Nature spec completely until Lvl 50 when you can respec for RVR to Regrowth/Nature.

A superb compromise would be to roll a Warden. They really are good solo. It takes a while to kill things, but you can heal, you get base buffs and weapon styles. At higher levels you also get PBT. I'd definately recommend considering this Class.

Champions are OK solo, and again I got one to Lvl 50 but deleted him because they just were not wanted in groups at that time in RVR. I can't really say they are good, because I was never that impressed with mine and always wished I'd rolled a Hero instead.

Good luck, and definately use the Prydwen Forums - a lot of friendly and helpful people there
