What's been your most dangerous journey in DAoC and why? A trip across the frontiers as a low level, or deep into an epic zone? I've had several myself, including taking my level 15 bard into Yggdra Forest, my 17 Mercenary on a dragon raid (organised by no other than Gombur) and then making it out of dartmoor alive and back to Cornwall Station alone (although a few albs aided me along the way...) and most recently a journey to Tuscan Glacier with my 36 skald, just to see what it looked like. In groups I've been on a Summoner raid on the US servers (yep, that's why I went AWOL) in which we killed 2 Grand Summoners with one full group, 2 rezzers and a necro... that wasn't so dangerous but was bloody good fun.

As a level 20 infil I ran from the Alb PK in Odins to the farthest Midgard border keep, because of that mad jock MacGregor (*waves*) ... absolutely terrifying :D

My forced march from Mularn > Svuasd Faste at lvl 15-ish or so. Got totally lost, spent the next 2hrs dodging and legging it from various purple con mobs eventually getting laid waste too by a fire giant. :eek7:

Anytime I have to pass through a Milegate is always my most nervous of moments :p

Do remember running a lvl 1 seer from Mularn all the way down to Gna tho, as had no cash.

The runs into Malmo always good to keep the heart rate up.

Cheers

Most certainly my low levels in daoc on my first character. Then daoc was so fun to explore :). I went to emain with my level 6 ranger (other hibs were getting around 30), that was so dam fun! I also ventured there before I went with the 30's, I saw a dwarf and ran like hell. Rvr then made me shake irl :)

In beta, when i didn't know anything about the game. I was an lvl 5 eldritch, because on daoc homepage it said "Specializing in destructive and powerful magic, the Eldritch is perhaps the most dangerous spellcaster in the game. His spells deal with the most primal forces of nature. " I found hibernia border keep. At my first attempt to get bit further i was killed by some tiny ant :p
Took me a while to find the gate again and get past purple con mobs in front of it. Didn't know anything about aggro or it's range yet, so all mobs were very dangerous to me and i mostly moved around on zonewall as high as possible :) Took me about 5 hours to reach MG, didn't meet a soul all the way. After running around some more i saw a castle from far away. Was very excited and sure i'll meet somebody there. It was very late by then and i was very sleepy, almost fell out of my chair when i was greeted with a huge fireball :(

Lvl 16 scout shooting at a lvl 50 warrior in emain :) survived to, as infs suddenly jumped him before he reached me..

And geting jumped by 7 infs as a lvl 6 NS outside the hibby border keep (cant remember the name).

As for jurney, it must be geting from alb side of DF and all they way down as a lvl 10 sorc to get PLed :) hardly knew what the term PL meant those days :)

I also chose eld for the exact same reason, lol! :p Chanter it said something like, good spells but not as powerful as eld, so i went eld.
Also, I managed to find ligen a few times but I never figured out how to open the gate so thought you couldn't get through :(

most dangerous moments surely must count leveling to 5 around Prydwen Keep. Stupid Mulgruth Maggot. I still have nightmares :eek:

Exploring Albion as a ikkle Kaitlyn I somehow ended up at trees, I remember turning round and seeing these huge worms and snarling things ahead of me. Also my first Relic raid as a level 24 running down sauvage road and having Azal cheer at me.
As Casia its got to be any journey led by Ayam...I still remember him getting us all wiped because he wanted to see what was in the ruined hut in Vanern Swamp...
