Hey all. I've put off playing PSOBB for way too many years. I spent hundreds upon hundreds of hours playing GCN PSO with my ASCII keyboard controller back in the day. It was one of my favorite games. So many fond memories partying up with people and crushing content... and of course having people hack the server and sneaking into rooms where they'd drop hacked items. Lots of fun to be had.
I settled on Ultima PSO because, as an adult now, I don't have the hours to put into the grind anymore. I've been playing it the past two days and it's such a blast from the past. I made a RAmar and I'm currently level 28. I've ran TTF with two awesome lv200 people who were generous enough to give me a handful of rares, yellow boosters, and a mediocre mag (better than my starting mag, lol)
I guess my question is... how should I be spending my time? I did a couple solo quests and they were very boring. I did one government quest online, it was slightly better. I can do a normal TTF run through Dragon (and probably more, but through Dragon is quick) solo and I can do UP TO dragon on Hard TTF. Leveling is still slow though. Is there an optimal thing or things I should be doing to level up and experience the game? Any tips would be greatly appreciated and I look forward to seeing you guys on Pioneer 2!
