Talk:Pre-Searing Ascalon

Spoiler
Spoiler, or is it too simple and early to be a spoiler? - Lunarbunny 03:15, 28 Sep 2005 (EST)


 * The moment you enter Ascaon City in Pre-searing, you see all those people talking about post searing, so yeah, it's no big deal. --Karlos 09:31, 28 Sep 2005 (EST)


 * True...I try to refer to it as "Joining the Academy" myself to newbies just trying not to spoil anything, but that doesn't stop others. - Lunarbunny 13:39, 28 Sep 2005 (EST)


 * Yeah. I personally will never talk about PreSearing or PostSearing, just before and after entering the Academy (much like Lunarbunny), but it is the accepted standard (even if I personally don't like it).  That said, I wouldn't mind if someone added the  tag to the top of the article (but I didn't want to do it, because I feel biased).


 * I don't think it's a spoiler. In fact, I think it's important for new players to KNOW that this is not IT and that there is a much larger adventure coming. I once ran into this girl who was having a blast in Pre-searing (was like level 8 or so) thinking that was the game. She was completely overwhelmed by the prospect that the game could be so much larger than that. :) I think it's important for players to understand the exact scope of the game. --Karlos 08:40, 3 November 2005 (EST)

In my experience quiting the game while in the PvP Academy match returned me to the mission with Rurik. Someone mmight want to test what happens if you quit during the mission with Rurik. Fate 00:39, 4 December 2005 (UTC)


 * Your edit is right. If you quit during mission with Rurik, still come back to that mission.  Joe's edit was wrong. -PanSola 01:51, 4 December 2005 (UTC)


 * The only thing you can skip by logging out during the Ascalon Academy "mission" is the PvP part, if you log out then (as some people do who are trying to get to post searing as lvl 1), when you log back in you'll be in the PvE (Rurik) part. --Rainith 02:32, 4 December 2005 (UTC)

Enemies with level 2 or lower are not aggressive
This is inaccurate, as level 2 Skale Broodcallers and level 2 Wolves are agressive. Can somebody change this to whatever it was meant to say?


 * It says enemies lower than level 2, not level 2 or lower. So it's right that Skale Broodcallers and Wolves are agressive, but the article don't need to be changed. 213.84.52.71 10:41, 2 April 2007 (CDT)

I found the explanation about aggressive monsters is a bit misleading, although it is completely correct - just because of the level 1/3 example. Maybe explicitely writing "Enemies of level 0 and 1..." instead of "Enemies lower than level 2..." would be better?

high up presearing.
I saw this guy in pre-searing once that was level 15!!!! I'm trying to do this with a warrior, any tips? I'm going to just farm low levels until they don't yield exp then I'm going to do the quests.
 * Look up tips for the title Legendary Defender of Ascalon. That should help you get there. --Kale Ironfist 18:07, 8 May 2007 (CDT)

Arena Battle
The last time I went into post-searing, I did not fight a battle. Was that due to a lack of other people going to post-searing? Or has the battle been entirely removed? It seems that now, with many other campaigns, not enough people are going through to supply enough people for a battle. Has anyone else noticed that? --‎Skax459 17:09, 22 May 2007 (CDT)
 * Yes, not enough people for pvp. My very first character missed it too. The primary problem is that veterans have mostly all moved out of pre-Searing or plan on keeping a perma-pre character. Any new players are much more likely get Nightfall instead of Prophecies. (And PS: new sections go at the bottom). -- Ab.Er.Rant (msg Aberrant80) 21:09, 22 May 2007 (CDT)
 * Ok, and thats kind of a shame...I thought that pre-searing was really fun. Haven't tried the Factions intro (becuase I don't own it) but the Nightfall one was reaaaaally boring. I make new characters to re-do pre-searing, but I dread the Nightfall turorial. That heores thing is such a pain even the first time...--[[image:Necromancer-icon-small.png]]Skax459 15:40, 23 May 2007 (CDT)

Hard Mode?
I'm just wondering if someone would be level 20 there, does he/she have hard mode available if he/she has completed the prophecies capmaign with another character? --Runner From Hell 14:10, 23 June 2007 (CDT)
 * No. it was said from the begining that hm is everywhere beside pre. Foo 14:32, 23 June 2007 (CDT)
