Later expansions had some raid-ish content, more akin to Sky quests than Vox kills. The emphasis wasn't really on killing big single targets, more groups killing targets for quest items (Trials of Atlantis xpac)

The real 'endgame' was Realm v Realm v Realm. If you haven't played it, it's difficult to really explain the dynamic, but suffice to say the rewards were tangible, like access to dungeons locked out for the other 2 realms, and dmg/exp bonuses. It was fluid. Something like Warhammer Online, but better.

I thoroughly enjoyed that, and I normally hate PvP.

Edit: I might give this a spin, is there a general trend in realm choice for P99'ers?

this uthgard server has a custom raid style zone, i forget what it is called, i think it is call tajendi, but it has some stuff that requires a raid force, although you can use crazy tactics to kill the the stuff with one group, like dying over and over, while you run/kite the mob back to where you respawn lol

Toop's crew is going to Midgard. Hobby is onboard for my team, which will probably go to Albion, not 100% on that yet but will know once we get more interested.

There is some decent raid content in the game, doable with 2FG or less with capable players. Each realm has a dragon of its own, then there is Megalodon, Beliathan and Legion in Darkness Falls RvR dungeon (with all 3 realms having access), Frontiers have raid mobs also for each realm like the giant in Midgard which can be killed by any realm capable, just to name a few.

Only thing I really remember of this game, is watching my friend play one of the rogue classes, and backstabbing casters and killing them in one hit, then stealthing away as they go "WTF"

I present to you all, a video of my crew's only Shadowblade (rogue class), one of the most gifted and talented players I've ever known in DAoC!
