6/7 nightmare in full 10.3 gear (DPS) and im now working on getting a healer set because we need a new healer when GW2 is released (ugh). I got all the lore and I only need two rare achivements and the lairs. I am enjoying myself a lot, last time i felt like this was when EQ2 launched. Thinking about doing lairs as soon as the next patch (1.1.1) hits with the fixed loot.
Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the the universe. |

Got to Blue Mountain before realizing that I wasted some ap/sp and that I was trying to treat this game like any other MMO (a race to the finish). So re-rolled, took my time, saw the sights and completed every lore that I could so far. Just made it back to Blue Mountain and enjoying the game ALOT more now that Im taking my time. I'm also much stronger now that I understand my build a lot better now. Resubbing and don't see myself not resubbing next month either. For those racing through everything and not doing story missions, you're missing out on what the game thrives on. but, whatever floats your boat. |

I'm in Egypt. Just taking my time. I've also been playing Minecraft again and hanging out with friends since I'm on summer vacation. Haven't logged in in about 4 days, but I will this evening.
I ran Poseidon a couple of times, but I'm not a dungeon/raiding person, so I don't know what I'm going to do when I hit endgame if it turns out to be a raiding/gear grind. I'm not into that, so I probably will just leave at that point. Just enjoying the story now. I like to PvP, but since my faction is a minority on my server, I'm not enjoying the affect Fusang has on the overall game and the PvP itself. I will play for at least another month and see what comes up in the updates.
If I want a gear grind, there's always MoP coming up soon :)
I've pre-purchased GW2 but haven't played in any of the betas. If TSW is just a gear-grinder at the end, I can try out GW2 as a new experience and I'm looking forward to that. Otherwise, I have a ton of new games from the Steam summer sale, a sub to Darkfall, BF3, and Torchlight 2 will be coming out soon, I hope. |

I voted yes because I am doing nightmare mode dungeons. There is still plenty of content to do and keep me engaged, which i was happily surprised to see.

I was at the end-game 4 weeks ago, and doing NMs for the last 25 days or so, and still having fun.

Nope, been playing since June 29 but haven't done any of the elite dungeons, and of course not any of the nightmares. I'm just exploring around, doing some quests I like several times and queing for PvP matches sometimes. As a lifetimer I'm not in a hurry and probably they'll add plenty of new content before I complete what there is already.

You can see from the equipment if they are at endgame or not. ;)
Anyway, it's not really hard getting to endgame, it's just takes time. Out of 5 people I know, one is at "endgame" (or nightmare dungeons if you want). I believe this is the guy (if I remember the name correctly): http://chronicle.thesecretworld.com/character/Delnaran. The endgame does look hard (he hasn't completed any of the dungeons), but it's not very hard. I think the 20 man raid will come in that category. ;) |

It has got my dps build... Healing gear is a bit higher though :) Not sure what u wanna prove with chronicle though: http://chronicle.thesecretworld.com/character/Enyla Some friends are getting bored too I guess : http://chronicle.thesecretworld.com/character/Redwire
Main point is I did NMs 6/6 Except inferno because last boss is insane and not worth the trouble, I'm not running QL10.4 yet because it is just a Bullion/Rune/Signet farm and it bores for real... for those who are not familar with the end game thingy... its all about farming NM bosses to get some tokens called "Bullions", trade them in for weapons/acc and then upgrade them to QL10.4, add pure glyphs with Nightwatch kits and then grind ur ass for purple signet and tadaa you are done with the game... this is not fun endgame to me...
Edit: Also I have Bullion Pistols and Shotgun sitting in bank because I was trying some different dps builds... |

Im pretty much at endgame, starting my pvping now with some epic parts. ( i must say im not a big fan of tsw pvp but it kinda let me pass many hours without even get it) What do you guys except form endgames? This exactly what I've thought will happen to people which aren't used to sandbox games. "i have all the epics i stop now". "I did the story i quit now". Also pretty funny some say "going to gw2 instead", its just the same you have 8 doungens at endgame and some pvp. Which offers same endgame content, also the story is pretty fast done. It's pretty hard to understand what players want, once they cry about I HATE GRINDING ENDGAMEGEAR and once they say I GOT MY ENDGAME GEAR TO FAST. This both never have their ying and yang in players opinion. Experience prooved me people always go back to the grinding games.

I've got 95.7% of the abilities so far, slowly progressing as you need lot's of AP to purchase all the elites. We're running nightmares every day to gather equipment, and I mind you, you've to farm three equipments (heal/DD/tank), so that takes quiet some time and I've not even managed so far to get all the needed bullions for a single complete set of 10.4. With the added two nightmares on 31st July we can only get 50 bullions a day, and you need 270 for one 10.4 weapon and 190 for a 10.4 talisman. That's 1870 bullions needed for tzwo weapons and 7 talismans... 38 days, if you clear all five nightmares every day. So there's enough to do, as you need some 3 hours a day to clear all five nightmares, given that you can clear them ofc. |

So, from what Ive seen so far from the folks who have gotten to endgame they end up mostly farming NM for gear. It doesn't seem like many are doing tons of pvp and/or farming AP(which really is the same thing as grinding for gear).

For me personally - I 'could' of been at end game if I just rushed through the storyline and missions I suppose. I'm doing NM stuff, but haven't finished the Transylvania storyline or missions yet. There's also tons of lore and achievement stuff I want to track down to learn more about the story. |

Well, I haven't done a lot of the dungeons, but I am through all the open world/story content. I have run through all 3 Transylvania zones about 3/4 times. Kind of waiting on a friend that is re-specing into a tank to get his points to do more dungeons.
I am not a huge dungeon on different difficulty level is great person...Not complaining about it, just personal preference....I wouldn't mind some open world type dungeons/camps, that have rare drops and such...Like old EQ.
I have 6/8 weapons maxed, elemental/AR skills all bought, the inner wheel all done, 1-2 abilities away from all misc, and then points kind of all over for passives. Gonna work on getting builds for all 3 roles I guess.
I also bought GW2, before TSW, so I will probably be playing both.
