Fantasy MMORPG PvE Raids Guilds

Certainly! Dungeons & Dragons Online (DDO) has a unique leveling system compared to other MMOs, with a heavy emphasis on dungeon exploration, questing, and reincarnation (past lives). Below is a general leveling guide to help you progress efficiently. Early Levels (1-5) Quest Hubs: Start in Korthos Island (for new players) or The Harbor (if you skip Korthos). - Korthos Quests: Complete all quests (especially The Storehouses Secret and Miserys Peak for good XP). - Harbor Quests: Focus on The Waterworks chain, The Kobolds New Ringleader, and The Deadly Package. Tips: - Run quests on Hard or Elite difficulty (if possible) for bonus XP. - Join groups for faster clears (many low-level quests are quick with a party). Mid Levels (6-12) Key Quest Packs (Free-to-Play & VIP): - Catacombs (L6-8) Good for early mid-level XP. - Three-Barrel Cove (L5-8) Pirate-themed quests with decent rewards. - Tangleroot Gorge (L6-9) Solid chain with good XP. - Necropolis (L7-10) The Bloody Crypt and The Shadow Crypt are great. - Deleras Tomb (L5-8) Ends with a Voice of the Master trinket (+5% XP). Premium Packs (If Available): - Gianthold (L10-13) One of the best XP zones (unlocks at L10). - Vault of Night (L10-12) Good for mid-level XP and endgame prep. Tips: - Use XP boosts (from Daily Dice or store) during long quest chains. - Always do optionals in quests if they give good XP. High Levels (13-20) Best Quest Areas: - Gianthold (L10-13) Still great XP into early teens. - The Vale of Twilight (L14-16) The Shroud chain is a must. - Amrath (L17-20) High XP quests like Spies in the House. - The Lords of Dust (L18-20) Solid endgame XP. Epic Levels (20+): - Once you hit 20, you can either Epic Reincarnate or True Reincarnate (TR) to start over with past-life bonuses. Tips: - Slayers & Explorers in high-level wilderness areas (e.g., Orchard of the Macabre) give good XP. - Daily Challenges (e.g., Kobold Island) provide solid XP rewards. Reincarnation & Past Lives Heroic True Reincarnation (HTR): Reset to L1 with a past-life feat. Epic Reincarnation (ER): Reset from L30 to L20. Iconic Reincarnation (ITR): Start at L15, level to 30, then reincarnate. Tip: Stacking past lives makes leveling faster over time. General Leveling Tips XP Buffs: Always have: - Voice of the Master (+5% XP, from Deleras). - XP Elixirs (if available). - Guild XP Bonus (join an active guild). Grouping: Many quests are faster with a party. First-Time Bonus: Always try to run each quest once on Elite for max XP. Daily Dice: Log in daily for free XP boosts. Fastest Leveling Path (Summary) 1-5: Korthos Harbor (Waterworks, Catacombs). 6-10: Tangleroot, Deleras, Necro. 10-14: Gianthold, Vault of Night. 14-20: Vale of Twilight, Amrath, Lords of Dust. 20+: Epic quests or reincarnate.

Great raids, some bugs

The new raid content is fantastic with challenging mechanics. However, there are still some bugs that need to be ironed out. Overall a solid expansion that keeps me coming back for more.
