Level 1 - 5:
This was, of course, some of the easier leveling there is. I pressed the neat new ENTER button and came out of portal space in the training all. I handed my gem over and the guy told me if I wanted to skip the tutorial all I had to do was talk to some dude in the next room. So I talked to, umm.. his name started with a J, the dude and sure enough he gave me all the experience from levels 1-5 but also threw in the gear you get. I looked around when I got out of the portal and remembered I had picked Holtburg as my starting town.
I looked around and saw a bunch of portal and buff bots, I left them alone. I wandered around Holtburg just getting acclimated with the controls again. (It is weird to me that 'S' isn't walk backwards. Yes I am aware I can change it.) I walked up to a chest and a guy standing next to it. He tells me if I give him some token he will give me a key to the chest. Well it just so happens I had a token and he gave me a key. I grabbed the armor that was in the chest and ran off to find my first fight. Found a cute little drudge and pummeled his body in with my Academy Cestus. I had forgot how much fun it is to make drudges scream.
Went back to Holtburg and remembered that there were guys in the bar that might have quests for me or hints. So I talked to Worcer and he gave me a list of items he wanted me to get out of Holtburg Redoubt. So I went there and got his items and he gave me 21,00 XP I believe. That leveled me from 5 to 7 I think.
Level 7:
I then talked to Worcer's friend Alfrin who asked me to get some of his supplies back from the Drudge Hideout. I went there and collected what I thought were all the items but I think I might have missed one. He gave me a bunch of XP and that leveled me to 8.
Level 8-10:
It started getting late and I was a bit tired after watching a great episode of BSG so the deails are fuzzy. I know that I was running around the Holt area and saw a house that I kind of rememberd but not everything. I went into the house and down stairs then it came back to me. Hollow Minions hit VERY hard. So there I was at the life stone typing into /gen chat.
"I had forgotten how hard hollows hit"
I then went to Rithwic because that is where I was n00b when I first started the game back in '99. I wondered around looking at the sights and remembering where stuff was at. Then I went the to bronze statue in the town and remembered about the door on them and went inside. By this time I had a nice Acid Nekode I was using with BD3 on it!! (I know UBER!). I killed big statues collecting lead peas and trying to get upgrades to my gear. I hit level 9 on those and I decided I was going to go find another quest. Then I headed off to the Rithwic outposts to get my starter quests. I did those and I was then level 10.
Level 10-12:
It was pretty late at this point so I am not sure about everything. I think I went to Shoushi and I did the starting quests there and that got me to level 11 or very close to it. I think I did another quest other then the starting quest as well. I was looking over my inventory, UST'ing and sorting and I notices that I had 7 Lucky Gold Letters. Sweet, if I remembered right I could get stamps from the different cities and stamp the letters, then I could turn those in to different cities for some new gear. So I went to the bars of the different cities and got the directions to different dungeons in the area. Sure enough there was a city stamp in most of the dungeons I tried. Durring all the running around I would stop and just kill a lot of mobs and I collected 5 Red Wasp Wings, 3 Blue Wasp Wings and 8 Drudge Charms. I turned all those items in and it leveled me up to 12 and then some.
By the time I logged off I had some neat new gear, sold 20 lead peas for a bunch of money, sold my xtra wands. So here are my stats and skills as they stand at level 12.
