end game

[leroyreborn]

any of the 5box hit the lvl cap and started gearing for end game. i have read bad things about end game turning in to a long bad grind fest. been playing eve. and thinking of going back to wow or rift. but rift little hard to box due to lack of addons and such. so kinda wonder how end game gearing was going and how easy the dungeons are.

i know some but do not but i like me games easy and fun. i got enough hard stuff to do in RL do not need to bang my head on brick walls in my games.

im working my 5 box team to endgame so far its pretty easy to box, difficutly of the dungeons are hard till you get a way for it to work for the way you box. i have an endgame rogue and so far all the teir 1 experts i think i can box once i get my team to 50

Same here got my 5 rogues to 50 then made a mixed grp pve team consisting of War(tank),mage(healer)mage(DPS),mage(DPS), Cleric(healer) all the normal instances so far are easy and from what i know about experts from rrunning them with my rogue i can box them. Not saying its going to be easy mode but no harder than wotlk and cata dungeons thats for sure.

i have a 5 mixed group at 50, and 2 toons geared for GSB/RoS.

After playing the game a bit and back since Beta 2, i decided to not box for Experts anymore, due to the speed being vastly faster running with 4 other people, albeit that being hard to do on some servers. There are some bosses that will give your problems in experts. ie: Plutonus in DSM on Expert.

Also what grind were you told about? ie: faction/ gear? which then the answer is yes, there is a grind, if you want to call it a grind, i see it as a necessity to build a character in any game, its definitely not a grind like Aion was or a grind like FFXI or FFXIV. Leveling speed is on par with wow 1 - 70 or slight faster depending on playtime, and quest knowledge. 5 Boxing all quests and also doing the instances a few times at the transition point between areas puts you finish up in shimmersands or stillmoor or iron pine peaks, and then that leaves 1 to 2 of the other zones to complete at 50, which is not bad as all the areas are the start of your lvl 50 faction grinding, and doing these quests speeds it up. You need roughly 260 plaques for a full set of vendor T1 Epics, T2 set of epics is much much more then that. By gauging that i got 120 plaques in a few days it doesnt seem bad at all, but i also have a decent guild to run with and im not boxing the experts as i hoped i would be doing.

All in all, the content will be box-able, someone like void is most likely a more efficient boxer then i am, which i have a bad understanding and conceptualizing layouts/keybinds and macro setup to allow me to box better. I primarily box to have more money for my mains to spend on gear and stuff, not to mention making mob killing and aoe more interesting.

I tell you what, Expert rifts might be a way to gear your team pretty well. I was running around at level 48 behind a guild doing expert rifts just on the sidelines doing subpar dps and etc and got a couple of shard firsts with some nice epic gear.

now i'm sure this would be slower because drops arent 100% for your group.

wish i woulda started on the pve server. everyone who started on the pvp server quit so its just me. I left the guild i made and joined a raiding guild. if they do character xfers ill be moving for sure. Would be super nice to be able to do raid rifts with other boxers

HEll ya come to my Shard Shatterbone Ill do some raid rifts and expert rifts with other boxers!
