Runes of Magic US / AU

Try HoTo or HoS, if those are too hard, try KS/clops, but it should really not take a ton of gear to be able to do HoTo, and you could potentially work your way up from there.

The progression used to be that you farm clops in white statted gear, then Kalin in clops gear, then Hoto, etc. But, these days nobody wants to run those, because better gear is available for sale so cheap that the price of puries and jewels is wasted on any gear below Hos. Once in a while I find an old Hoto piece, but rarely.

These days, to get in on a gear curve, you really end up buying for gold enough cheapie gear to farm DOD, and then work your way from there.

I am wondering why there is no dungeons to run to get the armor to start raiding. It seems like there is only raids, making it only possible to buy your gear. Why isn't there any of these dungeons that you can run with a pug group of noobs for some gear and fun?

I wish they had different modes for raidable instances like you can do the first part as a 6 man get some gear but not the best.

Have a second part be unlocked only if you go in with 12-man raid and the last third part of the instance unlock only if you clear the frist two parts with a 18-man raid party.

This way everyone can have a little fun while keeping the good gear difficult to get and helps have other classes get a chance to get in the runs. Not just scouts,knights and priests maybe some others if they're over-geared for the instance by buying everything from scouts. lol.. my thoughts"
