Dark Age of Camelot

While playing the past few months, there have been some things that I think would greatly enhance gameplay:

1. In game mail system
2. Ability to add friends to your friends list even if they aren't online
3. Ability to delve more than one object at a time to compare properties
4. Revamp on the UI
5. Updating the graphics engine to be in comparison to recently released MMO's
6. Add more hotbars to the UI (three just isn't enough :) )
7. Ability to add a mark on the map when you type in a certain /loc
8. An audible sound when you receive a /tell
9. Abilty to view current items on the market explorer when adding items to your consignment merchant to check pricing

I'm a rather newbie to DAoC, so there might be workarounds or solutions to the above.  These are certainly not game breaking isssues, but would definitely help with gameplay!

The Hitt/Pow regen is just too damn slow imo.Maybe make the mob's give a little less XP but minimes the downtime a little. the XP is not the problem,just the damn long downtimes between each kill that is ruining my game play. i spend 20 sec killing a mob and sitting twining my thumbs for 3 min while watching my Hitt regen. and after a little while i just log off in frustation. I know most of my frinds have the same problem. was one of the reasons they left the game.

Dont get me wrong. the game is brilliant. But i wana kill and have fun. Not sitting most of my game time watching a red bar progress extremly slow.The Catacombs and TD helped a bitt on the grind. But that was not the main issue for me when i quit the game back when ToA came out. The Downtime is.I gett to lvl30 and just reroll a new toon. As by then my downtime is just to much for me to handle.

Sorry but i wish they would make the downtime less maybe on the expense of XP. dont want the grind to go any faster. Just want less downtime whitout having to carry a BB arround all day.........

Sorry for the whine. Next time il bring a bagg of cheese.

I agree 100% with the OP. 

I also feel the downtime is too long for regen.  It would be nice if they made food usful  for regen in the game as some other MMO's have done.

I would like to add 2 things. (FYI: I played this game since the day it came out and have quit twice now because of these 2 things and will nver play this game again without them getting fixed.)

1. Get rid of spellcasting being constantly interupted by melee combat so casters have no choice but to melee (Casters are not made to melee). or run.  Quickcast doesn't cut it.  See WoW or EQ2.  This is how spellcasters should be able to be played.

2. The crafting in this game is such a time and money sink that it is unbearable. 

Either allow an item to always be made if  I have to keep paying for ingredients from merchants or allow materials to be harevested from resources (This would require putting resource nodes in the game.) if  there is a chance of  failure in making an item.  And for pity's sake lower the amount of time it takes to craft an item if  I'm gonna have 5 failures before I get 1 successfully made.

2. The crafting in this game is such a time and money sink that it is unbearable. 

ok to things are realy bugging me cause i hear them alot i used to play daoc got off like 3 weeks ago (my mom's fault) but anyways the two that bug are NEW UI you can download a new UI just google it i mean its preety simple lol i even have a customized UI i downloaded took awhile but was great afterwards another is this whole thing about waiting for your bars to refill once again the point is for you to rvr and to get realm  points so you can get new abilitys like the mids got mcl (magic crystal lore) which gives you a free boost of power  but they have pleanty of other onces like health regen. instan cloak and muliti shot and enchantments if you play daoc for pve then stop leave and go play seed cause this game is rvr and if you do do rvr then go to your trainer talk to your guildy/friends and tell them your problem they will tell you what skills to get trust me my bd can kill a hero and a animist cause i got ivy ropes (a huge slow dot aoe) and raging power (like mcl but you can use in battle) they are easy just use your head stay back see why they all die and then find a weakness of theres and see if you can stop it then if you can't get the ability that can everyone hates aoes dots casters (can't cast) and tanks (hurt and move slow) just use your mind and work towards a goal only way you will be recognized by other realms and make them run (hehe i like that about my toons)
