My first big MMO was AoC, and i got bored of that real quick. Just couldnt motivate myself to play.
I like how if you try to go back in Tiers as a high lvl player, you get turned into a chicken for, well, being a chicken. I know in WoW if you are flagged its easy to get your ass kicked in a starter area by a high lvl if you arnt paying attention. It cant happen here. I got to kill a lvl 19 bright wizard as a lvl 9 once. He flagged RVR, i did too (by accident, not knowing what i was doing) and poof, he turned into a chicken since he was RVR in a Tier 1 area and wam, mega XP and reknown points for me.
In AoC it was easy to just get mauled PVP free for alls by high lvls.
I like how the system works out in WO. You have reknown xp, which is for fighting in RVR fights, regular XP, and then Chapter XP, which you get for doing public quests. I just now figured out how to really do public quests, and thats to find an open group, easy to join, of players trying to do the same quest. Good times and you get good loot.
