yeah, I'm in the same boat. First time I've played a MMO and really enjoying it. Live in Western Australia. Currently at a level 39 Paladin and slowly working my way through to the end game when I'm not getting sidetracked by mining, fishing, goldsmithing etc, lol. Think I'm just going to go hardcore now in the next week whenever I get a chance (long distance commute to work every 4 days and back, 600km and kids) and finish Story. Sounds like a fun FC which wouldn't mind joining if that's ok? My character name is Gavril Cedarland
