Sorry guys....been kind of hectic here...and now with the holidays coming I'm not sure when I can squirrel away a couple hours to do the runs. More than likely I won't know until I actually have them. So what I'll do is just go on-line and see if anyone is around. Haven't been playing much the last few weeks since I've returned to work, so I haven't completed my Silver runner yet either. For right now can only do Gold or Plat runs (Light only)

Loco and I have done a few silver runs in a good time. As long as we don't get side tracked and start grinding. My Shadow Warrior is at level 40 now and can run silver campaigns. Love the shadow viel. My Shadow Warrior isn't ready for the gold campaigns yet but I'm getting there.

P.s.

Just saw your post loco, heh. They're a fair bit further along than I am so I thought I'd open a fresh one. :o

Bugger. Looks like im a bit late to jump in. Next time tho!

 

After testing on several builds. you no longer have to be in the server from step one of the Camp. as long as there is a low level char in camp to start it off. this could be the char doing the running. you can join at any time in the camp. as soon as the next gold circle (camp checkpoint) your log with update with all parts of the camp completed to that point. And I believe if you F8 to save. you can leave and go continue your camp from that save point. so Clan camping just got a ton easier IMO. test this to confirm my findings but it seems this is new with 2.65.1

 

Cheers and happy camping! :)

So I can enter just before the 4th guardian is down and get the whole main quest completed?

 

As long as there is still a Gold circle to be had. which the 4th would be and you save before the console switch. I believe the answer is yes!

Unless something changed in Ice and Blood I have to say no. Your logbook will update to show all the quests but once you leave and go into another server your logbook will reset and only show progress you have actually made in the campaign. Again something to be tested out, but I know in fallen Angel you had to be present for all parts of the campaign.

Agreed on the pre-Ice and Blood part. my observation would suggest that post- Ice and Blood it is changed. Easy to test just start a new camp with a new char and run to thylisium. we can then bring in another new level 2 char and let you run to Griffenburough. then exit with the late arrival and have them start a new server in camp.

Hmmm.... so Furian67 is not having any luck, and so it seems that my observation are flawed. gonna have to do some more testing. perhaps there was a unique sequence of events that allowed this to work, but no every time. ........*thinking of ways to test*

You're welcome Dragon Bro and thanx to Knuckles. Knuckles was a BIG help in that last run.

 

 

As for the mysterious campaign shortcut that only sometimes works I have a couple of theories but both are means to the same end. Transferring quest ownership. The idea is the same as the "13 Levels in 5 Minutes" guide. Transferring a campaign is likely more complicated. Might work and might explain how you guys have managed to get it to work sometimes.

 

Firstly, leave the server to transfer the campaign state. Say for example loco starts a campaign and sometime later Furian enters but Furians campaign state is not as advanced so his campaign doesn't progress. During the campaign loco crashes to desktop leaving Furian on the campaign server by himself. It's at this point that campaign "ownership" might be passed to Furian and that any further progress made in the campaign will update to Furian and save the progress as Furian's.

 

Same scenario as above. loco began a campaign some time ago and now Furian has joined. Furian's campaign progress won't save but IF loco were to allow Furian to "do the talking" for a while it's possible Furian's level of "ownership" might be upgraded. Specifically where NPC escorts are involved. A good test to this regard might be the 2 orc escorts we get during the Dryad Region part of the campaign. They are the last escorts to be picked up in the campaign. Though it's possible that just letting Furian do as much of the talking as possible would be enough.

 

 

I love this stuff. ^^ I'd suggest trying both theories and if it works then the next time try one of the theories.

Long live the late nighters!

 

 

I think the first senario is a favorite of mine for the winner in this contest of how'd ya do its. I have no doubt that as some point 1 or both of us may have crashed and or reset or game for whatever reason while the other staying in server and held ownership. And the test I guess is that each player has to take turns passing the torch during the last segments of the nameless. or simpler test from early stages would be quicker. so that each account is pasted the flag and saved.

 

These late night brain storms are fun aren't they? Hope your up doing something. and not tossing in your bed staring at the ceiling thinkin' about this.

Heya all,

 

I am creating low-level bargainers, mainly to support new toons and Kami's.

 

So far I have

 

level 2 trader (evil HE) Silver

level 12 trader (evil Dryad) Silver

level 18 trader (evil Dryad) Silver

level 25 trader (evil Dryad) Silver

 

to come

 

level 35 trader (seraphim) Gold

level 50 trader (Evil Dryad) Silver

level 65 trader (seraphim) Silver

level 80 trader (seraphim) Silver

level 100 (88) trader/smitty (Temple Guardian) Niob

Most of the traders are evil-alligned. I have a campaign runner on my other account, but she is level 126... meaning that I can run Gold and Plat

 

I do not have an evil silver surfer...

 

Anyone wanna help me out here? Only silver would be great... more ? I'm not objecting ofc :)

See if you can find Furian for Silver runs, my Shadow Warrior level'd himself out of Silver. Soon to be out of Gold too but I can do the Gold/Plat runs for you
