It's week four of Justin Olivetti's adventure in DAoC and now that he has hit 20, he's heading to the Battlegrounds to get a taste of RvR.
Justin also gave us a run down on PvE'ing to 20, the tasks and trials he found along the way.
Advice: Find a guild.
Honestly, I tried, but nobody was in the market for wet-behind-the-ears noobs (and I think I outed myself to some Massively players by shouting across regional and advice chat). On the whole, I didn't see a lot of chatter at all in any of the channels save for the occasional trade or gold spam.
That's a shame, and not so much for me (after all, I'm not going to be playing this game for too much longer) but for any new player who might dive in and hope to find a guild right off the bat. Most of these older games tend to be hungry for recruits, so I just found that puzzling.
Advice: Get back into PvP battlegrounds when you hit 20.
This is my full intention and the reason I pushed to get to 20 this past week. I want to end my time in DAoC with the main selling point of the game and hopefully evaluate PvP combat from a slightly more seasoned perspective.
Because of this, the vote this week won't be whether or not to send me to go PvPing; that's what I'm going to do, period. To be honest, I'm having a really difficult time coming up with any sort of vote that has to do with battleground PvP because I already know that I'm going to look for a group and do whatever the group wants to do. There really isn't any other big option other than to solo (and die), so a poll might be counter-productive for this.
So let's break with CMA tradition and not have a poll, just this once. Shh, don't tell Shawn! Instead, what I'd love to see is as much DAoC PvP advice as you gave me PvE advice last week, and I will do my best to follow that in the bloody encounters to come. What say you, experts, seasoned vets, and general spectators? What would give me the best chance of not only surviving but thriving in the battlegrounds?

CamelotVault got a chance to have a quick chat with Mythic Producer , Stuart Zissu and ask some of the hot topics concerning the Vault viewers. Check out some of the things expected in the months to come!
CamelotVault: What can we look forward to in the future for this game?
Stuart: There�s a lot to look forward to. We have a dedicated team working every day to add new content, polish existing content and make sure that DAoC is the best RvR experience in the MMO genre. Right now, we are running our newest Live Event, the Pict Menace. Simultaneously, our next bit of development is focusing on the high end gameplay specifically around RvR and Frontier warfare.
Massively's editor Justin Olivetti has sent out Week Two of "Choose my Adventure; Dark Age of Camelot"!
After reading some of the recommendations in the comments, I ended up making a female Troll Skald on a traditional server. She may be lumpy and bulky, but I took a shine to her right away.
Read up on Justin's adventures through Midgard and find out what he thought of his first few hours of playtime!!
Andys solo's tower when everyone else is crushed to open Beno port, there's a Kzar sighting and the Hibs party too much and lose all their relics. Find out what happen on NF Roundup
After a hard fought battle the likes of which DAoC'rs are well used to, we were victorious! Massively's editor Justin Olivetti will be playing DAoC!
But now he needs our help getting set up.
With the insane voting over a game at an end, today begins the real fun: You get to roll my character for me. Join me as I lay out just how this is going to work with DAoC's crazy setup.
Typically on Choose My Adventure, this post would be pretty cut-and-dried: pick a race, pick a class, tell me what kind of underwear I should pack, and we'll call it a day. This is not as simple as it sounds for Dark Age of Camelot, as most races eschew underwear as a general principle and DAoC has a bajillion races and classes. So instead of allowing you to pick specifics in these regards, I'm going to have to boil it down to general themes lest our polls break under the sheer strain of so many options.
Please note that all voting will be completed by midnight on the 17th in order to allow me time to play!
Help Justin pick server, realm, race and class type.
This week our report starts with the Girls Night Out as our female Albion warriors save the Albion Empire and give alittle payback to the Mids. Find out who the Albion BG leaders were and what they did on NF Roundup
