Played this game way back when as a knight a couple times from the beta(talking island, character creation, your name, WAS your roll on stats I was 8yrs old I think and hooked.) to when and mages were still new and the elves had their own region, never made it to the end game just lvl 40ish igetting in random parties and chomping on PVE with a duel on the fence of town here and there. when the cap was 60 I think. No dark elf, dragon knight or illusionist.

Playing as a knight now for a day or two and the starting gear is so OP? I just cruised through all my memories, the ax looks better then the stuff you get with feathers. I guess just get to the end game stuff right away, so no nastalgia there since its bypassed. Well I did just ditch the axe and get a two hand sword solely for the animation lol.

I've seen a PVP battle or two and it looks super cool with the blades flying around and fireballs raining down, but they're all lvl 80ish its seems so no way I'll be grinding that lol.  Just rain down some destruction on PVE and get my fill.

Anyway I think i might try one of the new classes for another couple days, do some AOE, seems to be all the rage. 
Anyone have some links to Guides for a newb?? expecially when it comes to the locations of quest things, so I'm not running around like a chicken with his head cut off, Cheers!

 

Welcome back! I just recently returned myself, and if you haven't seen it yet, there's a pinned thread above with guides for everyone.

A quick heads-up: while most things are the same, there are a few changes worth noting. For example, in the level 50 mage quest, some parts have been simplified. Instead of searching for an Orm to cast Cancel, the NPC is already present—I just needed to kill Orms to get the drop. It’s those kinds of tweaks you'll notice here and there.

Enjoy diving back in!
