DDO General Tips

DDO General Tips

Nov 11

The loading screen tips for Dungeons and Dragons Online are usefull for new players and general tips, but don’t help with some aspects of the game.

This topic aims at the slightly more experienced DDO player.
I want to keep this spoiler free, so no quest specific tips are included.

Below is a list of little tips and tricks to help you get the most out of the DDO game.

Carry a spare set of items to use around town.
These should include: Charisma / Haggle / Speed boost items.
———-
Running and jumping while using potions or activating abilities is often better than standing still taking a beating!
———-
If you have a spare party slot or want to solo a quest, summon a hireling when entering a dungeon and make them stay there.
If you die, use the come command to have them teleport to your location and pick up your soul stone. Then just find a shrine and rez!
———-
Stat boost skills like Human Versatility and Rogue Skill Boost will also increase your haggling skill, so hit it just before you buy or sell items.
———-
Attacking an Ooze with either slashing or piercing weapons will split it into two. They will also wear down weapons very fast, so use Muckbane, Muckdoom, a cheap weapon or your fists!
———-
Casters should carry a high SP item (+100 / +200). Make sure it’s equipped before you enter a quest and before you shrine.
If the item doesn’t have other properties you could swap it to a more effective weapon after the SP boost has been used!

If you have any tips to add, and I’m sure you do, please post them below!
