Similar spec to my wife's pc and she had to run it in a 1024*768 window on lowest settings and it still ran like a dog. I put RAD 3850 in there and now it's fine. I think the 6600GT just can't cut it with this game.

As its my first time playing a game like this im sure i will be asking a few questions. Im playing as a dwarf and im at level five at the moment, I have come across the first public quest called Battle of Bitterstone just across the bridge. I joined it as solo and we completed it but it still says 0/1 under quest and i cant seem to finish it. I have now done it about 5 times now but when ii go to the guy who finishes the quest he just says get back out there and attack?

Nice. Guess what server my friends rolled on? Are you saying that I should ignore them and go off on my own to a different server?
And I've love to know what these low pop servers are. Was looking for one last night in the evening, and I'll bet that you cant find a low pop Destruction server at that time of day that is in English and ISN'T a RP server.I don't want to play "I put on my robe and Wizard Hat" nonsense.
Public quests aren't given out by quest givers, they just announce themselves on screen when you enter the area. If you've got a quest in your quest log, then it just happens to be in the same area as the PQ, and you've got something to do in that area that you haven't finished yet.

The PQs (around level 10) also drop lots of purple bags too. When people discovered this in altdorf, it was flooded with PQ campers.

Sounds like a repeatable scenario quest. The war symbol by your map allows you to sign up to the local scenario.
Ok I'm upto level 6.5 from last night. I've explored heavily .. gotten killed quite a few times by a dragon called Salthir.. and even got a group.
I like the sorcerer and I've scared the crap out of the opposition in the CTF sub game.. nothing like point blank AoEing if they're disorganised lower level (it also disrupts casters etc). Against level 10s then it's not effective..
I have what seems to be decent armour but I can see that it's getting harder to stand toe-to-toe if soloing. Although that's IF the mob gets to you..
I've also explored and got to the RvR area in the map too but I thought a level 6 would get ganked easily.
Unfortunately this is on a server that nobody else is on here.. because the others were full.
So if you see a sorcerer called Microcasa wandering around aimlessly - that's me.
Current servers:
Karak Ungor - level 6 sorcerer
Although I'm thinking of switching to an open RvR for some proper action once I've got used to the sorcerer.

Just have to know your limitations, when you are going to get out gunned, head for the hills ! . Join an open group doing RvR and just start to learn how to work with different classes.
You will only have the same situation again once you hit 10/11 and move to T2.

The servers which will be cloned are as follow:
Karak Eight Peaks > Tor Anroc
Karak Azgal > Zhufbar
Karak Hirn > Yvresse
Eltharion > Tiranoc
Great game this, reached rank 15 on my white lion last night. Loving the class but im seriously doubting its melee DPS tag, i play with 5 RL friends and other than the rune priest they all hit as hard as me 
the two bright wizards are insane! i just hang back and slice up the WE that pop on them. Very impressed with the warrior priest, hit as hard as me, but it heals them for twice the damage he deals.... quite nice 
Hoping in later levels my damage goes up a bit to warrant the healing required to keep me up ganking the destruction healers.

It would be awesome to get some playtime in tonight.
Its happening tomorrow

You get a very nice skill for your lion later on which allows you to 'fetch' an enemy player to you. A dest class gets a similar skill, which is a pain in the arse in t4 keep sieges when you suddely find yourself pulled from the keep wall into the masses of destruction attacking.
Why? What does it do?
Doubt it do anything. Not been very widely publicised and all the big guilds/alliances are staying put. Plus it no real gain for Order, they don't have queues anyway.
On PQs, I’m starting to think the best way to level up is to farm the easy/popular PQ in each racial area and top up your EXP with Scenarios. Gets the best gear and renown points that way. Your average PvE quest doesn’t have nearly as good rewards.

Bright Wizards have the highest DPS in the game, or atleast can do the most damage, but they're built out of paper and die in seconds.
It doesn't look like it's going to have much effect. You'll have a choice of playing your Karak Azgal char after a 45min que or no wait to get on a deserted copy of Karak Azgal called Zhufbar.
I decided a couple of days ago to re-roll on Karak Ugnor as I really don't have the time in the evening to wait 45mins to get a game and hope I don't get DC'd. I have a Marauder called Corax on Ugnor now. One of many 40k Primarch names i've seen about and I think there's a guild on Ugnor called Thousand Sons, wonder if the guild leader is called Magnus!!
