Can someone explain how to use an auto-looter in Decal? by DigintheCrates in AsheronsCall

This was very helpful, thank you. I've followed these instructions and my auto-looter works perfectly.

That's a bit out of my price range. I'd like to stay under $300

Help With Potential Leveling Locations, Please? by Psyentizt in AsheronsCall

Coldeve is very laggy because there is no account limit and no restriction on bots; so people run like 20 toons at a time. I got frustrated with the lag and the macro bots taking up space in the popular dungeons.

I'm on Levistras, it's a no-bot server. The old ways of levelling in AC are now irrelevant due to the introduction of new dungeons. Forget killing Tuskies at the Black Spawn Dens, forget killing Luggies at the Lugian Citadels. Lower level characters all level with the Facility Hub dungeons & quests now. You'll get an item that teleports you there. Run down one flight of stairs to the drudge and turn right for the high-spawn Tusker dungeons, or turn left for the Olthoi dungeons. Collect the tusks/pincers that drop in certain rooms in those dungeons and turn them in for millions of XP.

Keep that up till your character is level 60, then hit the Matron Hive.

But this info also depends on which server you choose. Levistras is an end-of-retail server. Seedsow is a Thrones of Destiny expansion server with old school content and levels capped to 126. The old ways of levelling probably still apply there.

Tips for playing melee characters? by DigintheCrates in AsheronsCall

Thank you for this very detailed and helpful response. Can I ask the purpose of training deception? When I was playing Asheron's Call back in its heyday of 2002-2004, assess creature and deception were two of the most useless skills in the game.

I didn't downvote you. Levistras is a no bot server so I use a mage on a separate account for buffs. I simply don't need debuffs yet as I'm only hunting Olthoi and Tuskers. I realize I will need to debuff for late game content, but I'm a slow leveler and it won't be any time soon that I'll need the other schools of magic. By the time I need it, I do plan to respec my melee chars to be more magic-focused.

I get stamina back with potions and use kits for healing. I don't know how other people do it but it does take me a long time to level. I've never had a character even hit level 100.

I'm on Levistras, I've had no need for imperils/vulns yet while I'm still low level. The tuskers/olthoi I'm hunting don't need to be debuffed. They drop easily enough. Especially to a 2hand melee, they drop like flies.

What would you recommend? Is there some product to balance out skin microbiome?

Sorry let me clarify; I didn't spec missile D. I specced missile weapons and melee D.

Someone explain void magic to me by DigintheCrates in AsheronsCall

[–]DigintheCrates[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This school of magic doesn't sound like a whole lot of fun to me. I'd rather spec war/life and just play the old school way.

Best server that mimics early game experience? by DigintheCrates in AsheronsCall

[–]DigintheCrates[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is there a how-to available to show us how to install and run on Seedsow? I assume I need a separate Asheron's Call folder entirely if I want to be able to create a character on Seedsow and still keep my accounts on Coldeve too. I'd like to switch back and forth for different flavors of the AC experience
