What Rune Level people usually stop at?

[Zodee]

the rune levels where the most co-op & invasion happens mostly.

Meta was generally at 125-150 prior to the expansion. Because expansion progress is largely driven by scadutree fragments rather than RL, I can't imagine that's changed much.

That said I primarily solo these games, so someone with more developed knowledge of the co-op/PvP scene might be able to give more updated info.

Base game 120-125, DLC 175ish

As someone that does both pve and invasions I can tell you things get seriously unbalanced after you level beyond 150-155.

3 monkeys spamming abilities at you at level 200+ is almost impossible to overcome. you have to bait, run towards mobs, ledges anything to separate them because if its 1v3 your toast regardless of there skill level and yours. if you invade inside catacombs...lol. just leave

im going to get cheat engine and make characters for solely pvp because once your in DLC runes pour in and before you notice your level 175+

i had a couple of decent invades at level 165 but after that...no way

After doing my first playthrough back when ER came out at RL 60, I always stop at lvl 125.
Its more than enough imo.

I usually stop at 80-90 for melee builds and 120 for hybrids. Yeah the meta is 125-150 but with all those extra points you become a boring havel mage and the notion of a character 'build' is thrown out the window.

150

If you don’t intend to do pvp 175 is a good point (200 takes a bit of farming)

Good pvp ranges are 75 (150 is where the sweats with PATA and duped times chill) 200 has a decent amount.

[NiflRav]

Best pvp - 50-75
High point pvp - 120-150
DLC edition pvp - 175-200

Pve - just don't bother.
