Well I was sitting around doing nothing else but modding my Ford F-150 when I decided to give Dungeon Lords another go. This time instead of a human fighter, I made a elven rogue. It was pretty tough getting through Fargrove Sewers "That Troll was a KILLER" literally. Anyways i did it, then went straight to the Fargrove Jail and freed the Theif. Then I went to the guild of Mystery and did the Custard mansion quest "Kinda peeved me off that the chest was broken (wouldn't open)". Then i did all the other main quest stuff in Fargrove i.e. 1st relic quest, then went to the Fighters guild and became a fighter class. So I went on my way to Arindale, delivered my sword of striking and "borrowed" the elven flame sword (good low level weapon), then chose the Marauder class quest. And that's were I am now. I'm debating on weather I should go straight for the marauder quest or do the Trial of Elders first. Anybody have an opinion? :confused:

I don't know about your question but i started as an elven rogue and killed the troll with my throwing daggers from the second floor. He never touched me and i killed him easily. :D

I say try out the Marauder quest first; having those skill cost bonuses will be great when you get all the exp from the trial, and the light dual wielding will really help you out.

As for that troll, sure, using ranged is the easiest way to do it, but also by far the longest.

I agree with Joe, with the lowered skill costs, and the over 1 million exp you can get from the trials, you'll be ready to do some serious damage.

plus the dual wield skill will come in handy.

Yes it does take longer but if you are a theif, you are better made for ranged attacks than to run blindly into the slaughter (namely, yours...) lol

Yeah, good point. But if you get one of those poles between you and the troll, you can hack at him without him lifting a finger as long as you stay just far enough away. The first, fourth, and fifth hits from a light weapon/medium weapon at skill 5 have your weapons full range, so you can tag him with that. If your skill is lower, the first hit still reaches, but in this case it's probably better to use ranged.

Well I decided to do the marauder quest first. I don't know why everbody made a big fuss over finding the guy you need to kill in the quest. He was right by the crossroads outside of Fargrove. Then I decided to hold off on the Trial of Elders and did the "Path of the Dragon" quest. Got the egg and took the Dragon heraldry. So I then went to get a moonstone from "Moonstone Island" and got some major exp from just killing moonbeasts. Now it's time for the Trial OF Elders. This gonna be easyer with the dual wield skill, glade I took your advice! Thanks...
