Coming from Shadowbane, new to Regnum

I'm sorry. I just got a little thorn in my eye, and had to get it out.
Actually two thorns.

Thorn number 1:
All game elements are definately not built around RVR, if they were they would have made the grind shorter/easier and the droprate of items higher/less important.

Thorn number 2:
The best RVR MMORPG on the market was - and still is - the game that invented the damn thing, and they did it better even though they did it back in 2001.
Dark Age of Camelot. You should try it sometime. :-)

That'll be all :-P

hello Grathane,

Interesting difference from SB is that chars skill-builds is not static(not like most f2p games), you can reset your skills anytime and make new ones. People used different skills setups for grind, fort wars, epic mobs, hunt, weapon and armor equip.

З.Ы. dont kick me for my english

almost every mmo has that, but in some it's premium content.

I started playing SB in Beta, stopped near launch for around 2 or 3 years and then started playing again, on and off.

From what I have researched about Regnum, the differences I have found seem to be;

- Much harder to get to max level than SB (No other game I know you can fully level and gear out an entire spec group within 1 day :P)
- All forts/castles are realm owned, not player owned like SB City's
- There is no lower level PvP as of yet (I believe they are planning on putting some in in the future), so you can only really start PvP around level 30 at the earliest, if you want to be somewhat useful at least.
- Not really sure about guilds and the use of Ventrilo/Teamspeak or other voice chat clients used for better GvG
- The classes and races are less limited than in SB, but hopefully still provide for some nice diversity in PvP.

Hopefully I don't seem as if I am bashing Regnum, anyone that has played SB will know it had many, many flaws :P But these are the differences I have found so far.

I will probably start playing Regnum as well, either Regnum or AoC or WAR I guess for me. But Regnum has got my attention so far as I see it does have a lot of potential. Hope to see you in game.
