The series is now completed! Hope you all have enjoyed and found the 37 episodes helpful. This last episode is a discussion video explaining the options you have once you hit level 20 and how to best proceed. At this point the game splits into 2 main progression paths and you need to choose one. From here you can either stick to being free to play and reincarnate, or continue to level into epics - the choice is yours! And there are advantages/disadvantages to each path.


0:00 Intro
1:41 The Reincarnation Path
5:24 The Endgame Path
11:04 How to Earn Tokens of the Twelve
13:10 How to Buy a Heart of Wood
14:03 How to Reincarnate
14:49 How to Claim Your Epic Destinies
19:00 Farewell!

Great job, thank you Axel for the nicely done tutorial experience!

I know you ended it but I think there is value in doing a small additional video explaining the DDO codes that come every week and the yearly ones that offer content. Also discuss the discounts so they new players know that they will fastly catch up in acquiring content.

Finally, I didn't watch all your videos but did you do at least one with an lfm to show the grouping experience?

I guess I should have mentioned weekly promo codes at some point, I don't think I did, didn't think of it. But I've covered the free quest code periodically throughout the series, and sales, and have done standalone vids on the content code/100 point sales as well.

Yeah - iirc I showed how grouping works in the first few videos, and also did in the last video. I did do the Tempest Spine episode duo-boxed because of the INT rune. Though the goal was solo only, so I didn't want to group generally.

Different to mention, different to at least join a group and play a few dungeons with others. To illustrate the actual mechanics and community behaviour.
Sometimes, the behaviour is great (grouping with No man is left behind mentality) other times it is OMG (grouping with the zergers of hell).
And I do believe there is value for the new players to have exposure to both behaviours.

ps: For no toon is left behind, I will be happy to join and help you on the video. I do happen to have my main at level 21 right now. For finding a zerger, I'm pretty sure you can get an r1/daily LFM for a quest :-D I remember sometimes that the time it took me to start they almost finished the quest... and I was like ok turn back exit the door leave the group and hope for a better group next time 🙃.

Cheers
