Hi there! (an old player returns)...

Post by Manomiom »

Hi there, everyone. I am a new (old) player, just checking out The Silver Marches for the first time, though I used to play several years ago on the old Daggerdale (NWN 1) server. Some of you may remember me as Olga Ironstar (and Pig).

I haven't landed on a character concept yet, and if there are any Eastern U.S. Adventuring Companies looking for members, I'm interested (and pretty flexible) if you're looking for <a _fill_in_the_blank>.

I hope to see you online soon (if the hak's ever stop loading, lol).

Welcome back. I would suggest a Lathanderite or Helmite if you are looking for dmage and an established group, otherwise you might get a bit bored. :wink: :P

I would not suggest the smaller races at this point as they are largely unsupported.

Halfling! Halfling! Halfling!

A proper one, mind you! We've only one at the moment. Well, one proper one - there are a few other fakes who claim to be hins but worship some stupid big folk god. A halfling bard would be even better :P

Yeah...I finally managed to get by client patched with the ALFA haks (over 6000 files, yikes!), and made a "throw away" just to make sure I could log in and move around. I still haven't decided on long term character, yet.

Of the three teams above, what are the average levels?

I think each group has some high level PC's in it, but all PC's start at L1 (not certain if I understood the question). With hte addition of Regas all factions have some DM support now.

If one groups is primarily low level, that would probably be my first choice. I don't fancy following high level characters around and getting murdered when their high level enemies accidentally sneeze in my direction. :lol:

Ahhhh...sorry, I understand now :oops:

I think the smattering od high-level PC's we have are scattered about pretty evenly across the board, so unfortunately it would be dificult to avoid them in any faction, heh :lol:

I can't definitively speak for team evil on this, but my experience is that one is generally safer when they are about, than when they're not, though.

If I weren't stuck with the blubbering drunken miscreant I rolled up though, I'd take a shot at one that could move between the factions, rather than choose a side and avoid the others. The player base in ALFA is truely exceptional and the more PC's you can interact with, the more fun you can have. :wink:
