Hi! After i have died several times with different type of character, i decided i need to learn more about the game and here i have some questions:
  • played with magician, guardian and rogue; tried to cast with all characters and end up with a death, so how much vitality do i need for hardcore caster rogue?
  • in what should i spent my abilities points? had no clue what to use and used them random (anyhow i haven't reached more then level 5 without dieing yet...)
  • what type of items should i use or search from drops? would be quite nice if could explain a bit why i need certain items
  • if the fee for selling and item is 5% i need to sell two to be able to buy one, so rather then do that would someone pay 1.05 for an item that worth 1.00?
  • after i died i have seen items on marketplace of my own, how was that possible? it's a bug or was because of lag?
  • how much time usualy takes to earn first forum gold coin? and does marketplace work as an auction house or we have npc stores too?
  • what skills worth to be tried? have used glyphing but died and lost glyphs i had on; some of them with mana and life were pretty good to be used i think
  • how may i join a group and where may i find a list with objectives that can be done by a player?
I know i asked pretty much questions, but after i ripped around 5-6 characters i don't feel like going forward like a blind man and keep doing same mistakes.
Hope that someone will answer them and guide me in the good direction. Thanks!

Played softcore for few levels and to be honest i have seen more players on hardcore and because of that and because of high risk and adrenaline i joined that core.
Never been a fan of softcore no matter what game i have played, so there are too less chances to change the core.

edit: Was fighting an evil monster and another one spawned, then they were three and one second later full screen of mobs it was...
Hoped to get some better items from it and now don't know if i should attempt killing them or just run and make another maze.

edit: The run option have been the right one, too bad for me i didn't picked that up and without an armor on i had to use the create character option once again :(

Wouldn't hurt if you would post a response to my questions really.
That would help me not die that often and you would also throw one's bread upon the water.

At a minimum I stat 75 vit when I solo. <-- That's with good gear.

I would suggest not casting.

If you play rogue, get Enhanced Effect Weapons, Enhanced Effect Armors and strength or dex charms based on what weapon you're using.

If you're going to solo I would suggest just putting all points into powerstrike as you shouldn't encounter more than 3 monsters at a time. You should concentrate on doing as much single target damage as possible.

As for Forum Gold, you're better off playing other games if you want a lot of fg. Otherwise toss things you don't want up for 1fg and hope someone buys them.

Good luck

Have Fun

Any other questions, PM me.

Well i like caster characters because of higher damage and because of range attacks too.
Don't like to play as a tanker and take all the damage upon me. Guardian was a nice and interesting option but because i was dealing low damage and couldn't heal more then i was taking damage i switched to magician.
That wasn't a clever move either and ripped few chars when i was starting to like to play with it... So moved to rogue and it's damage convinced me that he's the right char for my playing moments.

Don't know what a lot of fg would mean but i know my need of it would be just to buy one better charm with some good damage and nothing all for the moment. That should be enough for getting me few levels of fun :)

Well then, continue dying.

Enjoy


Really hope that won't happen that often at least if i can't avoid it.

You asked for help, I gave you advice, you didn't take it.

You more than likely wont join many groups at this point so you're going to have to solo. Hell, I have pretty decent gear and I'm lucky to find a HC group.

If you want to live. Stat a shit ton of vit (I'd suggest 100) and get the items I said to get.

It's not that you're a tank in a group, it's your best chance to survive solo.

I'm not the best slasher of all times, but I've been around a while and I've slashed HC since the start.

Will try to play around without any deaths and will see what future will bring, hopefully only peace and joy :)

It looks like you had right and i still don't want to admit that i can't play as a caster.
Died another two times from then and now happen right before finishing the maze... horrible tbh...
Going to give it one more try, if i fail again then i will change my position :( Will hit few times and run town to regen and continue the move until mob is dead and maybe will stay more time alive this way.
