1- Anyone else think that the game is slow?
2- Is it good to spend attribute points at the character making screen for rune stones?
3- When you level up, should I spend all my points into attributes?
4- Should I use my skills points right away to boost a weapon? if so were?
Anyway so far so good.
But The game is slow, graphics are not like EQ or DAoC for sure.
Control do suck, you always swich your camera view etc...
Still very fun so far, of course you cant say that youve played the game fully intul you started some wars etc...
Its basicly to level and build your character just like DAoC before going further.

use the right forum  :
1- Anyone else think that the game is slow?
Slow how? framerate is low (like 14 fps), but who cares since it's not first person I guess. Action doesn't seem that slow. And once I learned how to toggle run, movement got faster 
2- Is it good to spend attribute points at the character making screen for rune stones?
I did it, but I think that it's probably not that good of an idea, because you get better stuff later. I'm not sure if you can delete a background attribute if you don't want it and get the points back (seems kind of funny - suddenly you WEREN'T raised by giants - but would be annoying otherwise)
3- When you level up, should I spend all my points into attributes?
from what I've read, yes, at least until you've maxed your most important attributes. And don't forget int even if you're a melee
4- Should I use my skills points right away to boost a weapon? if so were?
not sure, but probably if you're a melee yes, otherwise you should be raising your spells. You should try to keep stuff at your level where it's cheap (in gold) to raise
Anyway so far so good.

3'rd person = crap
Control do suck, you always swich your camera view etc...
how the hell do you go in a building - do you really have to look down through the damn roof of the building? omg that's dumb
Still very fun so far, of course you cant say that youve played the game fully intul you started some wars etc...
yeah it's still something to do

ya i am likin it.. controls you get used too.. i cant imagine playin with foward mouse button anymore after a month and a half of SB..
low lvls are the slowest in the game since theres almsot no action.. once you get out and theres actually pvp once in awhile its alot more fun.. especially once you get softcap and can really focus on pvp.
Atribute points are good to spend at low lvls depending on your class you should max your major atributes then save the point for a rune later on.

1- In cities yes it is slow.Outside of cities I dont have much of a problem.
2- Yes.There are some traits that are really worth it.ie "Taint of Madness..+10 mana/+10% mana regen".There are some like the Con/Str/Int/ ect,even if you find them runes I believe that when you find a better one in game that they will refund the cost you originally used for it.
3-Yes spend your ability points.Myself would raise Int first cause that will help and save you skill points later down the road,ie 5 Int = 1 point for skills.With this you dont have to spend skill points at a lower lvl and can save some for when you promote.
4-See #3.Now if you are a melee then yes I would spend them upping your melee skills asap.Casters can put the points into his spell lines.Dont have to really train the low lvl spells so you can save points for the higher lvl spells after you promote.
The guild I am in just baught our seed for our city.We were about 5 min or so short of being the first guild on the Dread server to plant the ToL (tree of Life).
All in all it has exceeded my expectations of what I thought it was gonna be like at release time.Lvl 34 in a day and a half not bad lvling at all.
