  • Level 1

    I know this would call for a lot of work by the devs, but it could be potentially be worth it.

    I would like to see the return of starting at level 1, if possible. I think it would make a lot of things more meaningful to the average player.

    Not happening. It was a very conscious design choice.
    The very existence of flame-throwers proves that some time, somewhere, someone said to themselves, You know, I want to set those people over there on fire, but I'm just not close enough to get the job done.

        I remember the first time I played on sundren the server crashed on char creation and I was stuck with a lev 1 bard called Ul.
        It was definitely not very nice.
        But at least i got the cool bard starting armour as opposed to the tunic

            The idea was that the mage would have to not get shot at, and it would his own fault for having only 4 hitpoints and apparently no Con bonus.

            But its not going happen so thats that.

                  lol...

                  On a more serious note, this could solve part of the leveling problem that the DM's are so worried about. Starting at level one means, well, not starting at level three. And then you're farther from level twenty, which is apparently a terrible thing to be at anyways.

                      The other big point is dedicating areas & resources to cater to these levels.
