Hi mike.
It's not the socializing part of groups I dislike, it's actually the
grouping aspect. Running round an area as I said, with no time to read
descriptions, or haing a fight with everyone using goodness knows what. Call
me a loner, but it just didn't appeal to me when i tried it.
Myself, I'd just try someone like that, knock him down, hit him with a
stinking clown, then run off for a minute and regen my mana, go back, tool
up with all my protective spells and companions, and have another go.
This is how I got through some tougher monsters like the giant squid on the
viking ship or the evil wizard in the swamp.
Look at black water hollows. It's a tough area, and I've been told to go in
with a group, however I'm just levelling until i can do it, and iproving my
stats and spells.
Yes, it probably takes more time, but it is just the way I prefer to do
things. If however the game was setup in such a way that was impossible,
that! would be the point I would lose interest.
Beware the grue!
Dark.

I wouldn't say you're forced, but it would definitely help. Plus, if you
don't want to socialize, turn of group talk. I'll give an example. I was
helping out a friend of mine get some spell comps for him to make potions.
I knew that if we killed an alchemist in the first town that we could get
plenty of them. We tried twice, both times with two fiends that I put up.
SInce this guy continually casts things like fire web, feeble mind, and
dispel, we kept getting rebuffed, their by making us effective. The first
time we went in that room and tried, we knocked him down 7%, and my friend
ended up getting killed. I called in a friend of mine who could leap
attack in his hit set, and we took him down with me keeping the fiends up,
Wolfton blasting, and Fighter hitting with leap attacks. But even so, it
took a bit to take him down. Wolfton is total level 88, my main character
is total level 93, and I know Fighter is somewhere in the 100's for total
levels. So, you could try to solo, but it's just my thought that you will
need a group for the higher level areas. Also, if you die, and you don't
have any friends on their, you won't be getting your xp back, as you can't
resurrect your own corpse, and you won't know anyone who will be able to do
it for you. So socializing would kinda have to happen for that to work.
Mike.

I'm thoroughly enjoying Alter Aeon so far, but I've heard that in order
to solve some higher level quests and special events, you're basically
forced to group. Is this true? I don't mean to sound antisocial by saying
this, but I flat out refuse to group on muds. I don't play muds to
socialize. There are plenty of other outlets that I use for making
friends. I play muds to get lost in the game world and to independently
strengthen and develop my character.

I completely disagree. I think that alter is a great mud, no matter
what level, same with Project bob and others. If you get tired of it,
then find something else to do. I've been on alter for a few months,
and have gotten several people into it. I have met some realy great
friends on their, who are always ready to group. With the added thing
of Dentin adding new classes, it''ll be even more fun when those are
released. So, I completely disagree with you.
Mike.

Hiya Kelly, Personally I wouldn't recommend alter aeon. I've been on
there
for a couple years now, and I have to say I'm sick of it. But its ok
when
you start, but after a while its just not fun, with the amounts of xp
being
ridiculous! For leveling.
