Welcome to the server. And I say that sincerely, because the server needs new players. I hope you make it.

There is no game or class specific benefit attached to either realm, and you can switch between the two as you please. High Elves are a good choice. The server needs more White Lions.

If you are on this website https://www.returnofreckoning.com/ and on the landing page you see on the right side, the current population.

some bullett points:
  • Peak time starts at around 18:00 - 20:00 GMT
  • The game and queues for all content start to feel lively above 700 players.
  • Both sides are equally played
  • Due to xrealming (people who have chars on both sides) the war efforts favor might swap to one side
  • every class can be viable in most content, pick what you like gameplaywise and aesthetically

Nice. I played DAoC too and this game. (Midgard for life!!! Dem Hibbies think dey strong; Dem HIbbies DEH BE WRONG!!!)

RoR is very fun but very hard. Addicting but can be very frustrating if you don't know details and are not prepared for the mid tier grind. I recommend a deep dive into guides and how-tos on youtube. Find a guild as soon as you can to help make the leveling process easier but research the guild you want to join VERY thoroughly.

My biggest complaint about the game is transitioning from new player to end game. Tier 1 is fun and Tier 4 is fun but leveling to Tier 4 is NOT fun. I have complained about it so many times but its obvious that its not a priority so I stopped. Mid tier is rough and is where most players quit. Boosted levels are not enough and Even your mounts aren't fast enough. Hard to keep up with warbands carrying you and can't get away from tryhards running you down to farm you for crests and RR. Highly recommend joining a guild that plays when you play and has enough members to help carry you. Get as many Renown Rank pots and items (i.e. Book of Boom) as you can to help you get your RR high enough. Capturing flags give you a temporary boost to exp as well. Everything is determined by Renown Rank. It's more important than your Character Rank.

Check out these links for help as they include guides and detailed steps on what to do. This game is PACKED with stuff that is needed but the new player doesn't know about. Also research guides on youtube.

Order NEEDS tanks as order is mostly ranged and Destro NEEDS healers as destro is mostly melee.

If you liked the Friar you may like the Warrior Priest/Disciple of Khaine
