New player introduction and questions

Author Content Date
Hi folks,

Just started playing a couple of days ago. I previously played esoma and various private servers many years ago.

I was feeling nostalgic and came across this website after a quick Google. I was quite happy to see that all of the Soma players seem to be concentrated on this one server now, rather than spread around. I've also noticed a lot of familiar names which is cool.

Anyway, I signed up and have a couple of questions if you can help me out.

1. For the most part, is the levelling path similar to esoma? For example I have been using Bow, and am currently sitting at 38 Str/39 Dex, and am hunting Scale Raptors. Any suggestions?

2. I notice there's a large amount of quests in the game, mostly collections... is it worth doing these? I don't think I ever completed a quest on esoma or a private server before.

3. I was advised upon creating my character that Con doesn't need to be levelled right at the start anymore. Nice! I was also told that I'd be better off waiting for event mobs to level Con as they offer less experience. Can anyone confirm?

Many thanks for your time.

Previously Diesel on esoma and Robot on Pirate Server website.

Robot as in Billy ^_^?

1. It's come to light that mobs give a bonus (better stats) if you str is 50 below you get 1.5x 30 str below 1.3x -10~+10 1.0x and +10 0.7x so basically hunt the mob with the highest str you can (realistically)

2. If you feel the quest is worth the reward than do it :)

3. Yes

4. Welcome back

Thanks for the advice. I think I'll move to Raptors at least then. Will miss my dedicated Scale Raptors spot on the western cliffs though!

I actually spoke to some members of Arcanix when I first created the character. Helpful.

I recognised the guild from esoma which was an instant nostalgia grin.

Hey Aduk!

I'm ok at the moment I think. Am just wearing vendor gear as levelling.
