Hello everyone,
I am new to this game. This is the first MMO I have played that has stuck with me very well, I could see myself playing this for a very long time or trying multiple characters. This is my first-life playthrough and I am really loving the game so much that I decided to buy a monthly subscription. My first character is a sorcerer and I was lucky enough to find a guild member who has been helping me along and doing quests with me.
The spell system seems very exciting. I came to ask if there is any information I should immediately look to learning or familiarize myself with? I have experience with DND and although DDO is very different, the character building is very familiar to me.
I have been looking at the wiki, and have been reading starter guides and how to build my class, although most of them seem very basic and don't go very in-depth with advanced knowledge or things I might need to know during later dungeons. I also worry that some of it may be outdated as well, some pages for building classes on the wiki are missing classes that I can see are in-game.
I apologize if this paragraph of questions seems brash, but I have a lot of questions, a lot of advanced topics aren't yet familiar to me and I need help understanding what I would need to do in order to progress further if missions start getting too difficult.
Do I need to follow a build 100% from the get-go, and is it cheap/expensive to rebuild my character if I seriously screw myself over?
Is there any websites I should be looking at to help build my character or that can provide me with information? I also see that I can access the old forums which is greatly helpful in understanding the game as whole.
Is there anything that might trip me up at later levels? I hear that Epic levels and Legendary can be hard, and I guess is there anything I can do in terms of planning to make that journey smoother for me?
Any other kinds of advice would be very appreciated, even just knowing what expansions to buy when they're on sale or if to wait.
Thanks in kind.
