Ten Reasons Why Sundren is Better than World of Warcraft.

[Saulus]

I always liked Everquest better than WoW. My first experiance in EQ(the original) was killing rats which reminded me of my very first PnP experience where my DM started us off with a rusty sword and 3cp.

I like Sundren better than my EQ days because I don't feel pressure to level and loot, and I've been able to use my head for a quest.

Yeah the starting XP decision was based on a few things. One of which was giving characters weapon finesse off the bat by giving them a few levels. Also, we really had no desire to waste any time trying to make areas to fight stupid things like rats just to get over those first few hurdles. It just seemed rather pointless. The starting XP is also a boon to mages who are handicapped at first level with 6hp.

And for that I thank you. As it is Westandris is pretty much a paper doll at level 4.

I still miss the struggles of life starting as a lvl 1 though; it still feels a bit strange the last two PWs I've played in that I got to mid level so fast...

Starting at lvl 1, the feeling of finally getting that 1000 xp without dying is... priceless... then you get to lvl 4 and get the first ability boost and 3 to 4 times the HP you started with... it's nigh orgasmic. You go back and find those kobolds and goblins that gave you such a whupping way back when, and it's time for some PAYBACK as you evicerate them mercilessly!

Mm, love the smell of slaughtered ex-badguys.

I like level 3. I have to party if it's time for violence. Yeah I die a lot and my XP gain is poor, but then sooner or later I'm bound to run into a DM event. Ultimately I'm in it for the RP, not the XP, and whilst my abilities grow very slowly I'm having too much fun developing the character's background and personality to really be bothered about it.

I still can't figure out why anyone would put that in the negative column.

Well, let's just chalk it down to a matter of taste then.

I like the draenei and troll women more nowadays, anyway.

I hate blood elves. All blood elves should die. Painfully.

Troll women are da shit though, I gotta be real
