I was hoping to get to lvl 50 in something but way too much of a grind for that
As it was, towards the end, I had to resort to digging mission mats as thats all I could find that went up to ql 50 and would still give decent xp I'm sure there used to be up to ql 50 "normal" mats on starter island? Or maybe that was just in beta days........(whispers something about wondermats....)
My first intention was to nuke my way to a decent level (3 magic packs at char creation....not the best move on reflection). Teamed up with a healer, hrmmm you soon forget how easy it isnt with a lower lvl char, was forced to level melee just to get my hit points up a bit so I didnt die so quickly.
Thought about the crafting route, dug a ton of mixed mats but not enough to really level anything and limited to ql 20. I did find someone to team dig with and they made me a neat lil ql20 choice LA.
Messed around doing various missions for quick dapper gain (fame seemed unaffected tho)
Most of all I died...........explosions, gassing myself whilst chatting (so many times), kipee stun, goari gang bang, clopper gang bang, can I kill a weanling yubo yet, I'm ready for messab now, running to the water, running to guards (wheres my speed up, melee aura and inv now!!!)
DP was great though, one or two quick yubo kills and good to go again so no need to beg for a rez.
Personally I felt the starter isle lacked something, maybe a boss or some higher mobs but then again thats probably down to being an experienced player and the fact that I was only there for 2 days.
I met a lot of new players who were totally in awe of the game and so excited by it all. It was great to see that and where i could I helped with advice and told them about how the game really comes to life when they reach the mainland etc. Everyone (I think) was on the 2 week trial, I'm really hoping some of them go on to sign up after the trial and once on the mainland send me a /tell. For me it would make the 2 days spent there even better
I didn't have the patience to go back to pulling 1 mat at a time
