Returning Player Looking for Some Advice

[Genjuro]

1: Have patience. Since you've been gone, there's been a TON of story stuffs unfolded since the regular Main Story Quests (MSQ) ended. Just getting to Heavensward content could net you anywhere from a couple of days to a couple of weeks worth of story content, depending on how active you are.

2: Enjoy the story. I know you wanna get to where everyone is asap, but if you deprive yourself of the story you're missing a really big element of the game.

3: Make sure you have all your subclass abilities that you're gonna need. Most of them are pretty much done by 32 since everything above that level seems to start specializing.

4: Check the market boards for iLvl gear that you can use for some of the updated content. Unless you want to get some of the more hardcore gear, most of the main story quests should be doable with armor that is fairly accessible to the casual gamer. Check all options.

5: Check the inn and the "Unending Journey" to jog your memory of what has occurred.
