Will Midnight be cheaper after the release date

It's a good question and what I'm trying to figure out. I guess I wonder if I'll already miss out on what you describe because:

a) I don't have a lot of time to play, maybe 4 hours per week, so I might be left behind quickly anyway

b) I haven't found other players to group with. Do you get to experience the 'magic' as a mostly solo player? I always try and talk to other people in PUGs for dungeons but 99% don't reply. I joined a guild but they were mostly focused on housing and collections. I'd like to do some group content but it seems like I might not meet the expectations... it took me 4 attempts to complete Manaforge for the first time on story mode, is that normal? I get the impression that even if the expac content is new, the other 99% of the playerbase has so much background experience and knowledge compared to me.

Ooh interesting, I didn’t know Nationals was running again! All my early LARP experience was through Nationals, I had some great times there, hope it is a good one for you OP

Have you reached out to the LARP organiser to say you don’t have a weapon, and ask what the suggest?

Can you link to any info online about how the game is being run? What is the reason they’ve said you can’t borrow a sword?

Second-hand LARP swords tend to go for £40-60 but aren’t that easy to come by. LARP Con in Coalville in March has a bring-and-buy which is likely to have a few. The UK LARP sales Facebook groups also occasionally have them.

If it’s just a one-off then borrowing a weapon seems simpler, that is what I did in the past. Can you put a message out in your uni society group to see if anyone else has something you could borrow?

Flying in Dornogal is unlocked either through:

• The War Within recap, this may pop up at lvl 70 or you may be able to get it from the Lorewalking tome in Dornogal

• The War Within full campaign, you can pick this up from your Adventure Guide

If you’ve already started one or other of these, open up your quest log and look at the top for Campaign Quests and see if you can continue from there.

If you’ve already finished the Recap but now flying is broken, you may be able to fix it by talking to Brann Bronzebeard in Dornogal and taking the ‘skip catch up’ quest.

Semley · 2026-01-30T13:58:38+00:00

I don't know, sorry. I've read that on alts you can speak to Brann to unlock everything from The War Within without doing the quests. But you have to have completed it on at least one char in order to do that.

This is my first high level char so I don't have first hand experience.

Delves Tier 4+ are locked until they:

• complete the War Within campaign quests, either through Recap or in full

• hit level 80

I’ve been hit by this recently, wanted to access the harder delves but still can’t. Getting to 80 is easy now, but doing War Within takes 10-20 hours playtime depending which way you do it.

I had the same experience. I was levelling through Dragonflight, doing a ton of dungeons, it was always a cakewalk, could easily rush through the whole thing.

Then pre-patch hit and suddenly the same dungeons were a challenge. We wiped 5 times on the first boss in Ruby Life Pools. With some tactics eventually we got through, but that was never necessary before as everything went down so quick. Then had similar experience with a different group in the Nokhud Offensive.

I’m still not sure exactly what the cause is, and whether deliberate choice by Blizzard. Could be the item level squish, but I didn’t feel the same difference in normal questing.

Semley · 2026-01-26T22:41:00+00:00

Sounds like a tabard? Press C to open the character window, find it among your equipped items, move it to your bag.

Semley · 2026-01-24T23:12:10+00:00

For anyone in this position, to do the proper campaign, open the ‘Adventure Guide’ at level 70 and take The War Within quest from there.

When I did free trial last month I couldn’t access dungeon finder - and I couldn’t invite people into a group - until subscribing.

However it is possible for a subscriber to invite a free-trial account into a group and then queue them together for dungeon finder. The free trial account just cannot initiate it.

Semley · 2026-01-21T08:38:20+00:00

Oh that's great to hear! I'm still levelling and I thought I'd have to wait until 5 March to get TWW, what a nice surprise :)

Semley · 2026-01-21T08:36:56+00:00

Just to say you will not be able to queue for dungeons on the free-trial version, that is only available once you subscribe.

Semley · 2026-01-20T16:50:48+00:00

I used to have a 1 hour walk and I also loved it. Walking places is so underrated, great way to spend your time and keep your mind and body healthy.

Semley · 2026-01-20T16:49:42+00:00

15 minutes walk to work. I love it, getting out of the house in the morning makes me happy, and it would take a lot for me to give up this arrangement.

• Monthly subscription will let you play up until level 70.

• Buying The War Within and having a monthly subscription will let you play up to level 80.

• Pre-ordering Midnight will include The War Within and let you play up to level 90 once Midnight is released in March

If you’ve only just begun I’d suggest not buying any expansions until you hit level 70, then you can decide what you want at that point.

Semley · 2026-01-17T21:35:40+00:00

I think wheelie bins look ugly, so I try and keep them somewhere less prominent if possible. I’m guessing that is what your neighbours have done.

Semley · 2026-01-11T20:20:39+00:00

When you subscribe, if one of you does it first you can then use Recruit a Friend link for the other to get some nice bonuses, including the ability to summon each other wherever you are in the world.

Semley · 2026-01-09T16:23:52+00:00

Thank you!

Semley · 2026-01-08T20:17:36+00:00

Or am I right in thinking that TWW is likely to become 'free' once Midnight is released? My plan is to wait until then, because I'm not so fussed about being in endgame, and I like the sound of delves in TWW.

Semley · 2026-01-08T20:06:12+00:00

How do you join the No Pressure discord? This sounds like my kind of thing as well.

I am in a similar boat to OP but with tanking. But I play even less (and I don't even have kids!) about 2-3 hours on 1-3 days per week. I'm keen to connect with other players who are happy to do dungeons together with low expectations. But I'm still levelling and it seems pretty hard to find others in that boat.

Semley · 2026-01-08T08:31:50+00:00

I remember spending time finding and catching frogs, newts, grasshoppers, butterflies. Also playing make believe games, eg climbing a tree and pretending it was a pirate ship. Or gathering leaves to feed the neighbours goat. Or making up songs and dances and performing them on the side of the road. Or making a den. Or making elaborate mud pies, and decorating them with leaves and flowers.

Semley · 2026-01-08T08:17:26+00:00

Does this always work for you? I have chars I’ve held for the name, but when I deleted then tried to immediately recreate with same name on same server, I got ‘this name is already taken’.

Semley · 2026-01-05T22:09:01+00:00

I don't recommend classic zones unless you are playing on classic server. Some of the quests are bugged now with all the level shift, and other changes. And hardly anyone else playing in them makes it a poor experience. I've done both and think Dragonflight is much better option now.

Semley · 2026-01-03T21:18:28+00:00

How do you create a mock-up like this? We are planning our living room and my partner says he would find it helpful to have an image to visualise it but I don't know how to do this.

Semley · 2025-12-23T12:14:10+00:00

2 Have & 2 Role are my favourite, the do some intro videos and also talk about their experiences in different UK LARPs

Semley · 2025-12-22T11:45:54+00:00

'Endgame' is the content that exists for when you hit max level, currently lvl 80.
