Uthgard (DAOC) General Info

[FoxxHound]

Lol, I was thinking you'd be mature enough to keep your temper tantrum out of the thread - it seems I was wrong!

YOU were the one who threw a hissy fit and decided not to group with anyone else because we asked you to stop running off on your own and dying in group PvP. YOU'RE the one who became emo as fuck when multiple people suggested you stick with the group, but god forbid anyone ever question the king of DAoC. FOUR players got fed up with you and left you behind, so don't even begin to play the victim here. People were getting sick of you and complaining to me in tells weeks ago, and I was the one to tell em to calm down and give you a chance. You played maybe a total of 30-60 minutes a day, not to mention your nasty habit of gathering a group of people (including random strangers) and then just immediately afk for 30 minutes to an hour at a time, leaving everyone in a lurch without a tank and expecting us to afk powerlevel you somehow. There's a reason I called you the group killer.

The fact of the matter is that you were mostly useless, and if you're gonna become an emo bitch whenever you receive the smallest amount of criticism - good fucking riddance. The rest of us will continue without you.

You sound awfully tense sir~

[Scrooge]

It's funny how when we just started this thing, I was getting tells in IRC and ingame that as long as Reiker is part of the group, they want no part of it...yet I still gave him plenty of chances to prove them wrong. I stand corrected.

If I was so bad for the groups, then why is it that everyone waits for me to start or do anything ingame? Why group with me at all if all you say is true? For someone who doesn't give a shit, you seem to give plenty of drama even over the smallest inconveniences, you and goobles both. I simply got tired of all the drama, I want no part of it. Let's just leave it at that.

It's not tooo bad actually. Though I am hoping to play SWOTR if I ever get a good enough puter. Oooor if there is a free server of ShadowBane or possibly DF or WHO or something.

Closer to West, but not on coast.
I ish Mountaiin Time~
I work graveyard. I also sometimes geek it up MTGing with friends.
So sometimes I am not on.

[Scrooge]

Just so there's no confusion, I am no longer part of the P99er group on Uthgard. I only played a new char (at first) to provide support for people who didn't know the game very well, and all I got in return were bullshit drama fests and ridicule, so I'm done babysitting that ungrateful bunch.

Despite everything, I won't be stopping. As fate would have it, some of my old crew members from a guild I ran 2 years ago came back to the server also, and want to get together again to dominate PvP like we used to. We all have chars L30-34 also, and will be moving forward starting this coming weekend.

If anyone started a new char with the intention of playing with the "P99er group," you are still welcome to try my group and see if it's for you (and vice versa) as long as you can get to 25+ (or try your best to) by the end of the week.

We'll still be meeting in #uthgard once in a while, so you can either reach me there, here on the forums or in-game on 'Vondas'.

Have fun, cya in-game!

I saw 700+ on the other day, and many times before. There is the occasional server reboot that gets annoying as it should not take an hour. I picture the Uthgard server as two old bearded german men shoveling coal into a furnace sometimes. So yea it can be laggy being that it is a Germany based server. All in all I have had a lot of fun there, it is as close to classic as I can find.

I never thought to see if P99ers were on there, hit me up- trying to get that grind out to 50.

This is classic.
All it is is zerging. Soloers are rare.
If you want to solo it up you either gotta go to Labby, DF, or kill stealthers on bridges on live.
I know this being a solo-er derp a herp a der~

[Reikerx]

8v8 isn't really what I consider "zerging" and that's definitely the most popular rvr you'll find here.

[Raelador]

Yeah that was at 9:30 central on a Sunday. I'm sorry I didn't realize this was a UK group.

For people in America who want to play Classic DAoC this is an unpopulated server.

Behold, our 2nd run as a crew this past Sunday night from 6PM-7PM US-EST. While it's true that it can get zergy sometimes, there are alot of small groups and 8v8 too. It may also seem like there's alot of enemy when you die but when you start counting while you're eating dirt, it comes out to 8...most of the time...heh

Note: We're still on the lookout for 4 more members to fill out the group; Druid, Warden, BMx2.

We broke through quickly. But somehow the Lord got aggroed to the bottom floor. That turned out very badly for us.

http://i43.tinypic.com/2hrd18o.jpg

It allowed for the defending Hibs to come out and hide in the ram and wipe us while we had to deal with the Lord. We had him under 5% :(

Midgurd butter~

[Scrooge]

The fact of the matter is that you were mostly useless, and if you're gonna become an emo bitch whenever you receive the smallest amount of criticism - good fucking riddance. The rest of us will continue without you.

Again, if that's the case, why is everyone playing with me and not you? Hmmm...

It's so ironic how you and those guys kept saying I was the main problem all along, and how I did this and that in your posts. Yet soon as I left, everyone else quit instead of sticking around to play with you. Don't you ever wonder why that is?

All you managed to do by making me leave the group is destroy it, instead of preserving it and making it better, and you still fail to see that.

[Reikerx]

So, some interesting things have been happening with me and my new Midgard guild. I slew the dragon:

http://i44.tinypic.com/dxk36e.jpg

We rolled for the Dragonscale Bracer first, which sells for >70 plat and is the best wrist besides like the Akar's Barrier (125ish plat?). I rolled a 100 and was ecstatic. But then the raid leader is like no sorry you didn't win - on the good items the person who rolls closest to his roll wins. So, whatever, I ended up with some crappy leather gloves that sell for like 3 plat if you can find a buyer.

http://i41.tinypic.com/iehwzt.jpg

We went back to do the dragon again this time as a guild-sponsored raid... and I roll a 96 on this:

http://i43.tinypic.com/1z6tle0.jpg

So first 2 dragon raids and nearly win both of the best items. Dragonstorm is essentially the best 2h hammer in Midgard... although what's "best" isn't very cut and dry in this game. There's no point in having all the best items due to stat caps, you just try to get the best jewelry type items you can and then form your SC around maxing all resists and skills/stats your class needs and you're done. As long as you're using a 16.5 dps weapon with 100% quality and 35% bonus, the only thing that differentiates weapons is the graphic and proc. It's not like EQ at all where there's usually always items you can strive for to upgrade your character. It's kinda dumb in a pve sense, but... the point is that you can't have a huge advantage in PvP through gear alone. Once you cap your stats and resists, that's it. Your options at 50 are a crafted weapon, dragon drop, or Tajendi drop (there's 3 2h hammers). Crafted weapons look the blandest, but I'm not a big fan of the Dragonstorm graphic either. But, whatever, Dragonstorm is amazing and sells for like 75 plat. Considering I have about 3 plat to my name right now, I'll gladly wield that fucker :D. Well, once I get 1 more level for 50 and can actually equip the thing, that is.

Now, back to those leather gloves. I put them up on our guild consignment merchant to sell and make some money last night. Today I noticed they were missing off the merchant, so I was excited that they may have sold. Long story short, after talking to a GM I discovered one of the officers knicked my gloves and the guild leader's spear off the merchant. Going to talk to him today to see what that's about. If he was out to steal, I don't understand why he didn't take the more valuable items we had listed.

[Reikerx]

Dude, are you still fucking going on about this?

Anyways, the number 1 sign of someone knowing they were in the wrong is lying. And everything you post is bullshit. No one "made you leave the group." You're the one who threw a fucking temper tantrum and refused to group with us. Everyone told you to fucking get over it and help us out in Braemar, and instead you refused to join to make some bullshit point. This is what, the fourth time you tried to get a group together on this server and failed? You've been abandoned numerous times and still fail to see that you're the problem. The difference is that I'm still on friendly terms with everyone we started with and you're not. People had things come up with real life and they couldn't really put in the time that this game requires, which is why I'm doing my thing on my Skald right now. In fact, I've been playing him for less than a week and I'm already running with all the top players on Midgard. I was invited to a dragon raid at level 47 which is virtually unheard of (Uthgard players are very elitist and only play with the creme of the crop. You'll notice this once you start getting towards 50, it's very cutthroat).

In short, no one wants to play with you Scrooge. Get the fuck over it and stop trying to drum up drama with me. You're a shitty player who can't even take the smallest amount of criticism without stomping your feet like a two year old. Everyone who was in that group knows who was in the wrong and you're beating a dead horse.

Also, please level the fuck up so that I can slay you. Thank you very much.

You mean like the time you asked how to port from DL to TNN, and I answered with "you buy the necklace for it like any other place, its common sense," which resulted in you freaking out and calling me names over it?

Or how about the time you went afk while we were all enroute to a dungeon, then came back, asked me how to get there, to which I answered "I'm tired of repeating the same thing 4 times, read the group chat," at which point you ragequitted entirely?

Both you and reiker, handled yourselves very poorly any time you had any issues or a concerns, and I only put up with it for the sake of the group. Instead of talking to me in a civilized manner, all the two of you did was rant nonstop like noobs in an RnF forum, until I couldn't stand to group with neither one of you anymore.

How many times did either one of you help one another by sharing gear or building groups? It was always up to me to make shit happen, one way or another, and you two would always act like spoiled little kids any time you didn't like something - like I owed you something.

I've seen max so far about 650 primetime... Usually when I am on only 150-350. Though I usually play really late at night!

Weekends yield over 900 for most of the day, it varies on weekdays but its hardly ever under 300. That might not sound like much but its more than enough, after all a zergy server isn't as fun as it sounds. As an example, I'll use Tuesday's (yesterday) Thidranki session: there was 33 minnimum Mids attacking the keep, and only 16 Hibs doing defense from outside the keep, add a group of Albs to that and you have one hell of a rumble. The screenie I posted is just a tiny glimpse of the whole picture.

Long as there are friends to enjoy the game with & have PvP with on a near-daily basis, that's all that really matters to me.

[Scrooge]

For those of you doubting action during US times, this was around 12 Midnight EST, small groups but lots of fun nonetheless!

[teekanc]

<~~ lols @ thid content. Thid isnt good for 8v8. It's a zerg zone. Everything is compact, easy to get everywhere within seconds. TNN / Agramon plz.

[FoxxHound]

Good ole DAoC!

[FoxxHound]

45-50 = hardest levels for me until they did the whole NF. Then they added CV which had tons of action for the first few months. Was amazing for RvR/PvP. Then it died.

Sad Face~

[Nanolian]

45-50 wasn't that bad, I played hib. Enchantr and mentalist/bard combo and mass pull.
I loved my ranger in pvp, doac was my favorite pvp game of all time. till they came out with Toa.

[Scrooge]

On Uthgard there are zones which have considerable XP bonuses, for example: Frontier Dungeons give +40% bonus, Darkness Falls gives 25% bonus, Frontiers give 15% bonus. Uthgard's XP system can be slow for bad groups or soloers, but if you go to the right place with the right group, you can level alot faster. The BG keeps are also important because whichever realm controls the keep also gets +20% bonus realm-wide (and stacks with other bonuses) for the level range of the BG.

PvP itself also brings in loads of XP, I did 44-45 just on XP made from PvP. This is an example from PvP in Darkness Falls at L49 (for which the regular XP cap is roughly 74mil.) If you estimate, thats like getting capped XP from PVE 6 times in one shot.

[Nanolian]

I miss daoc, I didn't even know it was still running. Maybe might try to go back one day.

They are playing on Freeshard. No paying~

[Scrooge]

For your viewing pleasure! Solo PvP adventures of Vondas, the L48 Hero on Uthgard!

Here's me killing a L50 Skald (in Epic Armor with a very good weapon, much like Reiker before he quit again right after hitting 50 like I knew he would) in 1v1 while I was already wounded after killing 3 orange con mobs. As well as a 1v1 with a Cave Spec L49 Shaman, this is actually harder than it sounds (because not only are they fully buffed, they also have a very cheap instant-PBAOE Disease which snares), and I was wounded this time also while killing badgers in Thidranki Mid area....Mids are so damn cowardly on this server for some reason. Enjoy!

[Flunklesnarkin]

I finally downloaded this... but when i went to look at the setup thread it said change settings like the image. but there were no images :\


help me get this set up.. i know you all want a chance to pwn me >_>

I see you like casters, you will do well as a hib. I'll post my names when I start.

[Nanolian]

Bah, can't get mine to work, it updated to 1.111, won't down patch to 1.009

[Flunklesnarkin]

i got it working fine.. just downloaded the game client then installed their 4 or 5 mods on the website.

might have better help over on their forums asking for help tho ;p

[MrSparkle001]

I'm still trying to recover my old account.

[FoxxHound]

Look on the forums. Or look for a DL link somewhere.
I made a post about it awhile back because I played on Live for like a month.
A GM posted a link to a place to DL it. Swap out one of the files. I'm sure others have made posts about it. Unless they put it on under their DLs on their main site?

I'd start with that first.

We still need a warden, but my guild (http://herald.uthgard.net/herald.php?view=stats&p1=guild&p2=RPs&p3=DESC&p5=Guild&p6=Fury)'s all 49/50'd out already, they got some alts going around but even those are 30+.

Cool, good luck with your leveling (though I'd reroll a Sylvan if I were you - they're just cooler!!) Once you get into late 20s/early 30s, maybe we can rvr some in the first bg. All the BGs on this server are very active and can be very fun as well.

If you make it past L20, I'll personally hook you up with some gear out of our guild vault!

[FoxxHound]

I kinda wanna jump back into it lol.
Been a little while. Though I know I'll just end up dropping it as soon as GW2 is out!

Level 20 you say, gimme a couple days :P
If I take longer then that, sorry gotta relearn the game lol
When are you normally on?

Oh, and I find emerald tokens from df is a good way to twink a Lvl20.

The irony is that many people in this thread said very similar words yet dropped out by lvl 10-12, hence why I used such a low lvl in my post. My advice is; just play the game and have fun doing it, enjoy your road to higher levels - there's no need to rush and/or skip content, most people who do end up regretting it later.

The guild I'm with is not a P99 thing, its not an open guild...but its not an elitist guild either. Basically you've got to pvp with the members and after that a vote is taken. All of our members were voted in through PvP, cause levels gear and even PvP rank mean nothing if there's no teamwork. Though we're all out of BGs at this point, almost all of us still have alts in every BG range.

We've started using IRC again recently, the info is the same as it was before: irc.eqemulator.net/#uthgard. If you have any questions about the game or w/e best way is through IRC, if no one is in there, just idle and someone will pop-in sooner or later.

Game content one been through on live, I focus on levels right now, I'm gald to hear that your guild doesn't just invite anybody. I'll be happy to prove myself.
9 levels to go.

They're fun to play, especially in RvR

[batkiller]

I tried Uthgard a few weeks ago, just before coming to Project99. Never played DAOC before and it seemed pretty cool. But my friend was watching and he said the population is too low to have meaningful RvR, so I quit. I could have given it a chance but I also didn't really feel like learning a whole new game which is so old, and GW2 just around the corner. Maybe I made a bad decision though.

[FoxxHound]

Yeah I stopped playing cause by the time I made it to 50, and had the gear on the characters I want to play + having people to play with. GW2 would be out, and that's the next thing I am goin to.

[Nanolian]

Glad the bronies are going Hib.


Lol, that's because hibs are 20% cooler then the other realms.

But I'm level 16 now, levels going pretty fast.

Good work, man! I haven't seen anyone from this thread rise up that fast; playing on your own after being absent from the game for so many years. I did some pvp on a L32 Mentalist yesterday, just to get into the lowbie pvp groove..was fun.

There's more than plenty of action going on (in BGs and 50 PvP), even if the action stops...its only a short pause until the enemy sees incentive for coming back, sometimes you have to "jumpstart" the action if you know the right moves.

This game is more than just learning how to play your own char, it's about learning how your group plays and adjust your playstyle to it on the fly, and it's about learning how your enemy plays and thinks as well!

im not sure where that one guy said that there wasnt enough ppl for RvR there was over 700 ppl on the server last weekend.

[Nanolian]

Yeah there's lots of RvR action.

This server brings me back, DF runs we're so.much fun back then.

[FoxxHound]

Anyone on Mid? :p

most of us play hib but there are a lot of mids online as well

If they ever recover my account I have mid characters.

One of the toughest bastards in the game, melees for 1,418, the boss of Summoners Hall - a higher level DF-like dungeon located inside the frontier dungeons. Being done by one full (pickup except me and druid) group.

It was a long fight and some of us died including our only druid...but we didn't give up, we kept getting back on our feet and going all the way and we took it down!

[kazroth]

Which realm has the most US players? I remember midgard had few and albion more but they weren't interested in PvP. Midgard was the PvP realm but it wasn't a US realm. It barely spoke english.

[FoxxHound]

^^ Yea that does suck, but I dislike Hib except for my VW, and Vamp online.
bleh

[Scrooge]

^^ Yea that does suck, but I dislike Hib except for my VW, and Vamp online.
bleh

We happen to be missing a VW since ours decided to be a BM (again) after all, so now we have 3 mained BMs in the guild. At the moment, all mained chars in the guild are 50, the ones that aren't are either secondary mains (L40+ only) or primary crafters (no lvl req.)

Fury is still looking for: a second mained Druid, a Warden (filled), a Champion, a Valewalker, and *maybe* an Animist (or two...mostly for pve runs/raids, but a pro PvP-minded Animist is welcome in good groups also!...not to mention its fun as hell to play since its fully implemented now, I have one at L36 from some years back). Other casters might be welcome, provided they prove themselves.

[FoxxHound]

Yeah they don't have the items on this server that they have on Live. So that'd be a hell no. No weapon swapping either. I'd be missing a lot of procs, and it would be no bueno.

[Doublestep]

i miss my vamp from live.

[Nanolian]

i miss my vamp from live.

Never played vamp, how was it?

[MrSparkle001]

I haven't played any of the SI or later classes, so I'm gonna try an animist. What I really want to try is a bonedancer but they're barely implemented, so since I like pet classes in MMOs I'll give animist a shot.

Have you tried Enchanter?

[Doublestep]

Never played vamp, how was it?

it was the perfect hybrid, melee combo attacker with in combat spells

[MrSparkle001]

Have you tried Enchanter?

No. I played a sorcerer but never many Hib classes beyond like level 10. It was always Midgard and Albion for me, even live 10 years ago.

[Nanolian]

You should try Enchanter, it can be fun, and fast leveling if you go mana, with a mana spec mentalist

[FoxxHound]

I remember my laser beams on my enchanter... lol Light Spec.

Non that I know of.

[Scrooge]

Perhaps someone should make one if enough are interested.

[FoxxHound]

I might on Mid if there are ever enough that play over there~

[MrSparkle001]

I'm messing around with my thane on Mid, who's still my favorite class so far. Domination sorcerer is fun too with the mezzes and charms. and animist seems fun but is going to take getting used to.

Uthgard does have a lot of the same problems it had when I last played three years ago. There's only one BG for 20-35, some classes are still not implemented fully or at all, and a lot of mobs are missing their abilities or spells. I used to have fun charming mobs with specific abilities on live, but here the same ones are just generic melee mobs. It's been three years, what have they been doing?

Kinda sucks :/
If only there was a server with decent Pop. that was like Live "Classic" servers. Like Ector, Lamorak, etc...
I loved the game when it first came out, but my FAVORITE time was around then.

[HappyTr33z]

I chose Albion, went Paladin(well I started as a fighter, kindof a curveball. I guess the character creation screen is the updated version but in game it's classic? who knows).

I'd be down to play on Mid or Hibernia if someone on here was set on making a guild.

Albion definitely seems the US/NA realm. I just logged off at 12:45 AM with 35 hibs, 38 mids and 61 albs online.

Problem is albs don't seem interested in taking keeps or relics. It's just like it was 10 years ago when I played live: lots of albs, none interested in taking keeps or relics.

[Humerox]

I've got toons in all 3 realms...just been toying with it because I never played DAoC.

I'd be up for a P99 guild there...

Chickenking, Bard.

[Nanolian]

Hibbies fo lyfe

Love hib, played all the time on live. :)

[MrSparkle001]

Hib is the one realm I never played, either live or here. I have a level 6 enchanter and level 6 animist I've been toying with. Gonna shelve the animist because I hear bombers aren't working properly.

Still leveling my sorcerer so I can charm things I was never able to on live.

[FoxxHound]

Sorcs are good.
Was thinkin bout gettin rid of my Therugist, and goin with Cabby for farm.
Ultimately not sure. I can't really do what I wanna on this server, but I suppose I could totally try a Scout or somethin!

I am interested in GW2 when it comes out. Assuming my poor wittle laptop can run it. I need a desktop, but too fuggin poor yo.

[MrSparkle001]

I'm going full domination on my sorcerer. I'll annoy the crap out of people with long mezzes, and I heard you need high mind spec to charm high level mobs.

I'm also trying out a savage and am thinking about a valewalker, but I don't have time for all these different classes.

Savage is amazing on Live, but meh there.
VW is cool there, but not great solo like Live.
Depends on how the spells are set up. I remember 35 was the highest level charm when I played, and went 35 dom/40 body. SO my lifetap hit very hard. Yellow Mezz, and yellow pet.

Maybe if a guildie/guildies was willing to give me a full set of SC'd and other gear to cap stats, and resists + potions and alch for a plat maybe 2. Which I don't see. Otherwise I'd tell him to go kindly fuck himself.

Heck...I've got 3 accounts...one for each realm, lol. SM best suited my style of play and is one of the best farmers (since necro isn't in Uthgard).

I figured I'd level him up first to generate cash and go from there. As for PvP...that will be for my second toon. ;)

Yup, I'm doing the same thing

[Scrooge]

One of the reasons why a P99 guild would never work on Uthgard; people never stick to any one class or group of players. They play something for a little while, hear someone say something negative about their class, and dump it for another...and on and on it goes.

Just play the game and the class you want to play and enjoy it, and if you don't enjoy it then dont play it, some people like to make things alot more complicated than they really are.

If you're having doubts about the effectiveness of your class, go on Uthgard's site, go to their Herald, and see how well other players are doing with your class.

There are no BAD classes in this game, only BAD players.

If anyone has an account they dumped I'd love to pick it up to try this out. Havent played DAOC since shortly before the first expansion. Great game.

One of the reasons why a P99 guild would never work on Uthgard; people never stick to any one class or group of players. They play something for a little while, hear someone say something negative about their class, and dump it for another...and on and on it goes.

Just play the game and the class you want to play and enjoy it, and if you don't enjoy it then dont play it, some people like to make things alot more complicated than they really are.

This is very true, oh scrooge diplomatic is 37 now, hope to see you in Milton soon ^^

Some of them are "bad". Animist bombers don't do the damage they should. Bonedancers are barely implemented. Savage h2h is blocked way too often due to a bug in the WG formula. They're all playable but they aren't working like they should.

[Humerox]

Some are bad at farming. And money ain't easy when ur a nub. :eek:

[Diggles]

Doesn't everyone have a pbaoe alt for farming???

[MrSparkle001]

Anyone else having a problem with DAOC Portal? It's showing 15 players on 5 servers.

[FoxxHound]

Haven't logged in, in awhile

Nope

[Nanolian]

Also, if anyone plays alb and you're looking for a guild pm Radus, its called <Warlords of Albion> its a good guild and we do have vent for future RvR.

[Wotsirb401]

anyone on here help me with the game.dll

[Scrooge]

There's a link to it somewhere in this thread, just do a search.

Anyone still interested in playing Midgard?

Recent change makes XP with spread out levels much better:

[22.01.2013] (http://herald.uthgard.net/herald.php?view=changelog)
- New: Experience clamp in groups is 20%. This means if your group leader is level 25 and you are level 20 you will still get the full XP with no penalty to help you to catch up with your level group.
- Bugfix: After years of tedious research the NPC melee formulas are corrected to be as near as possible to live servers. Buffs and debuffs on NPC's will now be effective. Formula changes affect melee damage and defense of all NPC's. This means pet's will be stronger overall, especially with buffs. Depending on level the deviation to before can be quite a lot. Biggest differences should be visible in level 20-30 range as our formulas had the biggest deviations there. (#223)
- Bugfix: Missrate formula corrected to behave original
- Bugfix: Attacker count influence on missrate corrected
- Bugfix: Missrate cap changed from 60% to 55%
- Change: Missrate downregulates damage if >cap
- Change: Missrate gives bonus to damage if <0%
- Change: /xp off removed
- Change: XP bonus for player kills reduced to +500%

I'm currently messing around in Midgard as an L40 Skald & L40 Savage friend. We're doing pretty well in PvP, started out as level 36s several days ago and grped up with a buncha of 40-42s, and XP was flying way faster than I remember it did a year or so ago.

The new zone XP % bonuses let you get 50% bonus xp on top of your capped XP if you go to the frontier (PvP dungeons accessable to all 3 realms at the same time, all the time).

[FoxxHound]

On live~

[Scrooge]

On live~

Those other changes are meant as retroactive live, cause they try to make the server what "live used to be around Patch v1.60."

Classes like bonedancer completed yet? Animists fixed yet? How about savages? (something about their claws being blocked too much, I forget).

Basically all the classes I wanted to play were broken, and on top of that was a lack of english being spoken and a lack of players during my prime time.

BDs are not complete, but that doesn't stop players from having fun with them. Animists fare well in RvR also, and Savages rock! I haven't really met any players who couldn't speak english yet either.

As for action during night hours (offpeak), here's a snapshot of my stats from playing at 1am-2am EST. This would normally be considered dead time, but it was VERY active, enemy groups from both realms and enough mids to put up a nice fight with. I made 20% of L40 from this 1 hour pvp session.

Maybe the population is different than when I last played (I think it was 2011, it's been ages). Back then most players were euro, many spoke another language and they all logged off come 9 PM EST. Hand to hand savages were bad in pvp because their blocking calculations were screwed up and made their attacks be blocked way too often. Animists weren't doing enough damage. And forget BDs. The one class I really wanted to play was the one class that was seriously incomplete. I can't believe it's still incomplete.

I'm looking to get started on this server, used to play DAOC in the glory days. Which faction are you guys on? Are you in a guild I could join? No one knows me, just a random enthusiast.

[Scrooge]

Some early morning fun, even made some new friends (US players).

We're in Midgard, in our (very) old guild thats for the most part inactive. It's just me and another old member who are back in action, for the time being. Though we're making new friends as we go, so we'll see how it goes - we've only been back 2 weeks but we're doing good. You know once you get a taste of that teamwork PvP in this game, it can get as addicting as EQ's pve.

If you're interested in giving it a go, I'd suggest doing it with a friend or two, so you both level together. Although you can make friends as you level in random groups as well, I wouldn't advise you to solo unless it's totally unavoidable. We'd help you out with lower lvl gear to get started etc. We also have low lvl chars we can play with you sometimes, but we'll be mostly on our current main chars. (Level 41 Skald & Level 40 Savage)

What class were you thinking of trying anyway?

This post is for those of you hesitating to play on this server; if you want to see a new side of the game then make a class you never played before.

When I first came to this server, I made a class I was very familiar with already (Berserker), got up to 30 then made a new char because it was just more of the same old.

Then I tried an AUG Healer, and I must say I enjoyed it alot. No one expects a healer class to be good at soloing & grouping both, so it was a nice surprise, and I took it all the way to higher levels. An Augmentation Healer gets things like self-damage add buff (like thanes), strong damage shield, haste, celerity (one of the most important things in a melee group too, its a temporary group buff,) resist buffs later on, and even a self-strength/con buff (also like thanes).

All that combined with the ability to heal makes for a really good class, just to give you an idea of what it can do at higher levels - I was able to solo lvl 50-55 named mobs when I was still 45. That was the first healer I ever made in my entire history of DAOC at the time.

That spider there is L54.

Soloing red-cons at L12 I think, that's atleast 4+ levels above you.

[Scrooge]

One of our guild members is making a new toon, a Norseman Warrior (it's only level 5 atm), so if anyone is starting a new char - you should group up.

[SirAlvarex]

Hows the population of the server? I downloaded/played a bit a year ago, but it wasn't that active.

How close, in your opinion, is it to real classic DAOC?

It depends on what time you play, but I haven't seen population drop below 200 even during "dead" hours. It peaks at 900+ and averages at 600-700. If you want accurate figures I think you can use their site to see that kind of info.

The server is as classic as it'll ever get for this game, because not even live's "classic servers" were even remotely classic. Check out the first page of this thread or the forums at uthgard.net, it can answer any questions you have beyond the general info in this thread.

Some SI classes are available and some are not, Spellcrafting and Alchemy are fully implemented, new frontier RAs are in effect, Old Frontiers are the lvl 50 RvR, etc. etc.

Me and a guildie might be playing some lowbie casters (Level 9s) for trying resist debuff caster combos when PvP isn't happening, although we don't let our lower levels stop us from fighting level 50s in the frontiers - so we're quite thorough when looking for action.

[Scrooge]

If anyone still wants to try out Midgard and run with a solid crew, this week's a good time to start!

We've made new chars last night; Runemaster & Spiritmaster, I'll get some more friends to make more chars so we have a decent group to level with. So if you want to see what DAOC PvP is like, don't miss your window - we'll only be low lvls for a couple of days.

[Shinzu]

Is this $15 a month to play?

[Scrooge]

Is this $15 a month to play?

It's a free classic-themed DAoC server [uthgard.net (http://uthgard.net)], much like Project1999 is for EQ.

[Deverell]

When I tried this last year, it was wildly unclassic. The server seemed pretty active and stable, but they didn't appear to be at all dedicated to era correctness. Classes from later expansions were in the game and many mechanics didn't work like they should, and these things were not "waiting to be fixed" issues. It'd be like if P99 decided to have AAs, mounts, beastlords and berserkers just for lulz.

[Scrooge]

It only has SI classes implemented, classes/crafting from the first expansion that came out in 2002. To be more accurate, its like P99 having Kunark....not AAs, mounts and beastlords.

Here are some screenies for people doubting how Savages work on Uthgard (not quadding often):

[Plaidpants]

I'm just starting up - anyone recommend a realm? Thread is really long so don't really wanna go through it all. Anyone wanna lend a hand or group? I know the first 10 levels can be miserable when you can't even afford a decent vendor weapon at first. I'm open to any realm. Would really like to get into this.. or I may just roll on live if I'm not able to.

[Plaidpants]

looks like you guys are on midgard - which is my home realm - but if there are others on hib/alb I'm up for that too because a change isn't a bad thing.

How can I contact yall in game?

[Suirad]

I have a level 50 friar, I'd be down to roll a midgard toon though.
