Guild News

Hello Sarcophagus Smashers!

The guild officers have been having discussions about how to improve the guild, (besides earning more guild renown!).
The first topic that has come up is scheduling raids, like The Chronoscope. Ultimately we would like to do a raid once a week. If there are any preferances, please leave a comment hear or send a tell or message to any officer. Hopefully this week we can get some kind of scgedule set up. The raid info will then be posted here on the guild blog.
Besides being fun and having great loot, raids are a great way to earn guild renown. We a a newer guild with mostly lower level players (questing our way up). The more quests and raids we do, the faster we level up and can get bigger and better weapons, armor, better and larger ships and amenities.
For our first raid as a guild, our officers have agreed to purchase guest passes for Devil's Assault/Chronoscope for any guild memebers that wants to run the raid.
Any guild members that needs help with a quest or has any questions about the game, send a tell or message to any officer.

Something fun on the guild ship

Have you been on the guild ship lately?  Besides a new paint job and an awesome orange ring, the guild has recently added a chest to the guildship. The chest is well stocked with a variety of weapons, armor and other handy extras. All you need to do is open it and you have access to the goodies inside. Feel free to take what you like and if there is something you would like to leave for other guild members you can add it to the chest.  Be sure to talk to the hirelings on the ship for protection spells and buffs.

We are always looking for new guild members. If you are interested in joining our guild, send a tell to any of our officers. There is usually someone online. If not, send a message via mail and we will send an guild invite out. Sarcophagus Smashers is adding some other new features, soon to be announced on the blog. Check back often for updates! Have an idea or suggestion? Leave a comment or send a message or tell. We would love to hear from you!

Tuesday's DDO Tip

To multiclass a character, simply talk to the trainer of the new class you are interested in when you are ready to level up.

Wilderness areas

• Wilderness areas can be very important when it comes to XP and leveling, they genrerally are very big, and are very easy to get lost in, but there is a ton of expirence that can be taken from these areas. The best wilderness areas to do are the ones that are in your level range, have plenty rare encounters and explorer objectives, and obviously a plentiful amount of monsters to be slain. The unique thing about wilderness areas is that they can be done solo or with a party. While there are many quests in the civilized areas that require a party, or just one person. A full party is nice because they can get the whole map cleared of quests, monsters, explorer, and sometimes rare encounters(which can give out decent loot). The problem with having a full party is that sometimes people may miss things or certain parts of the map. If you play solo, you will know which parts of the area you've yet to explore, and you won't have to keep up with anyone. This will take much longer though, due to less damage being done to the monsters and much less ground being covered.


• The Korthos wilderness area is great for xp, and is a small area that is easy to navigate around i reccomend doing this wilderness area until all objectives are complete.


• Waterworks is not so important when it comes to xp for the area objectives which are slayer and rare encounters, but the quests give good xp, and a balanced level 2-4 group could easily get these quests done easily on normal and maybe hard.


• The Cerulean Hills which is the other wilderness area has a few quests, I strongly reccomend doing those and comleting the rare encounters, and explorer if your up to it.


• Searing Heights is a very fun wilderness area to play, a few good quests, slayer is 750 but is relatively easy to get due to the size of the map, remember to bring cold weapns here as well.
