Here's my little collection of things all DAoC players should have done and experienced to get the maximum of enjoyment out of the game. Feel free to add to this list, I am sure you have your own tips, and I am also sure many of you don't agree with my points.

  • Levelled a char from 1 to 50 at least once.
  • Played in at least two realms, preferably three. Preferably in RvR as well. Things look quite different from the other side of the fence, trust me.
  • Participated in a dragon raid. Dragons are the age-old enemies of adventurers everywhere.
  • Participated in a relic raid. Nothing like seeing your realm flex its muscles.
  • Played a necromancer in PvE. Constant pulling of orange+ con mobs is fun, even if boring in the long run.
  • Rolled an enchanter (if only a lowbie one). You have to see what the fuss is all about. ;)
  • Rolled a savage (if only a lowbie one). Same reason as above.
  • Played an assassin class in the BGs. One-shotting mages is sooo fun. ;)
  • Played an AoE DoT class in the BGs. You'll be wiping armies.
  • Done your epic quests (at least for one char). You'll get to see a lot of your realm, and... a lot of your horse's backside.
  • Sorted SC armor (at least for one char). Only with capped stats do you get to see your char at its full potential.
  • Gained at least RR4 with one char. Some people may detest RvR, but this is most probably because they lack the experience.
  • Activated at least one artifact and levelled it. Artifacts are fun toys with cool abilities.
  • Done your ML trials, at least up to ML9 for one char. It is actually rewarding (at least after ML3 ;)).
  • Defeated an enemy FG with your own FG. Adrenaline.
  • Gotten at least one FAO or whine thread on BW or FH. :D

9/16 ;< not a hardcore DAoC fanatic it seems :/

Well maybe I didn't do a DoT char yet but does solo guarding a keep with GTAE count as well?

Spot the retard. Get out of my thread, I wrote this post to try to open the eyes of all players (perhaps specifically the casual players who I don't feel get to enjoy all the aspects of DAoC), and this is also the reason why this went into the General Discussion forum and not the RvR forum. That you still feel the need to drop smartass remarks quite comfortably exhibits your mental maturity. Furthermore, if you have the impression that I, personally, zerg, then you are clueless indeed.

Would definitely add organise anything that requires more than 1fg at whatever level.

Some personal fun things that I'd include

Own and decorate a house including at least one trophy

Suicide in DF by jumping into hulks (go on try it its quite addictive)

Make SC'er (even low level) and blow something (of your own) up on purpose

Take the boat ride to ToA

Walk (on foot) with no speed from your capital city to your SI portal (to remind yourself just how big the place really is)

Too bad its not possible / tolerated anymore, run through the mid-realm (home-realm) as alb on excal :D

I still have the screenshots of me running through mid-realm with Wedge at level 43 or so... Very funny... Yes the hole was actually found by accident :p

Other then that, did pretty much everything except the BG alts... And savages really arent 'that' overpowered at < 10 ...

And another> Fallen asleep at the computer after staying up way to late playing, preferably during a raid or event so your friends can laugh at you.

Ahahahaa...missed that one.

Took my then-44 Thane into Askheim and AOE nuked the entire place to ash, /yelling "That's for 26 levels ago, ya tufty-eared bastards!".

Felt goooood.

Well the alb version I was thinking of is Cynewulf the Ghostwalker, or Slythcur - just two of the things that make Salisbury Plains such a shite place to level. The first time I ever got rezzed by a pally was near the broken bridge, he said 'did the Ghostwalker kill you?' 'yes' 'right I'm gonna kick his arse' and then he did :) and a few levels later, so did I.

Also good is the quest where you have to beat up the Ghostwalker's pathetic younger brother/son/apprentice :D.
