I started playing AC a couple of years ago. I created a character and ran him to level 50 before I had to stop because of RL issues. I returned to the game when life settled down. I parked my now level 74 main and rolled up several new toons to refamiliarize myself with the controls and interface then bought TOD in time to enjoy all the bonus XP and other things that have been going on for the last month or so. This comeback and training was done during the time that all the seasoned players were taking advantage of the free skill sellback. Well bonus over. Life in Dereth starts to settle back to normal. My new toons are leveled, I have the experience, its time to pull out my main and see what all the fun is at upper levels.
Heartbreak :eek: . My Main is a gimp!!!! :( I took him to places that my new toon could do easily from 10 levels lower and he died 3 times in less than an hour. I asked clanmembers for help, and we noticed several places that inexperience on my part had made me make poor decisions when bringing him up.
I know you have been asked before, but would it be at all possible to give us 1 more week or even a day of the sellback so I can fix this and continue to enjoy my main? As it is now he can be little more than a portal mule.
Thanks

What is wrong with him?

He is a Melee powerhouse but totally wiped out by spellcasters. I may have found a way to correct this and some other weakness, It will take a lot of time but in the long run maybe better. I will just stick to Solo play in melee only environments and spend XP in weak areas. A lot of fighting but he will not have to be a mule.

Get yourself some good imbued items! :)
If he is a melee powerhouse, you can have alot of fun.
Also consider that this months patch is dropping clothes with level 7 spells, and also rings and hats and cloves and boots and amulets and the like.

I have found more Majors in one day that I have in a lifestimes gaming :P

With a nice imbued weapon, and a descent Arcane Lore, you wont need to have to use a buff bot, or rely on a spell caster.

I have several 'full melee' characters I play ( gimpy or not ) as a challenge.

Anyways, sorry you forgot to change skills around on him when they had the free sellbacks. I had a character I couldnt change due to level which I wanted to ( a mule, but I wanted him more functional if I ever un muled him hehe )

Anyways, good luck.
