I’ve been playing DDO for close to two years now and have seen the game change in many ways. Some annoyances have stuck with me from the beginning.

No offence really, except items.
Dual wield weapons that help your casting, but don’t go into melee unless you have to because you won’t hit much and for low damage.
If you need / want to go solo or with a small group, this build is best used for Crowd Control (CC).

The Vault of Night Raid Guide

Feb 15

There have been a few changes to the Vault of Night raid since DDO’s “Update 3″.
It seems like a good time to write a short guide on how to complete it.

DDO Free to Play Quest List

Nov 05

Being a Free to Play player in DDO can be tricky and time consuming.
Finding a Free to Play quest at your level you can enter isn’t always as easy as it should be.

For that reason, I have posted a list of all the F2P quests available in DDO.

The DDO F2P Quest list follows the ordering as below:
