Tiefling and Goliath Races available?

[qawal]

I'd want to check it out for myself since it's just F2P
But my net speed is just terrible and I'm not willing to wait a week for a let down

So are Tieflings and Goliaths playable races?
If so, is there a Bard class available?

There are no Tiefling and Goliath races in DDO. You have to buy the Half Orc race, maybe simillar to Goliath. The Free races are: Dwarf, Elf, Halfling, Human. Some of the other bought races might be similiar to tiefling.

Bard class is free, they are a combination of spell caster and light armor melee class.


If your networking speed is bad, you might as well NOT try to play DDO, which is a online MMORPG.

If the gaming cafes have this on their computers then you should try it out. You might have to request installation of this game if it is not on there.

Ignore the subtle trolls.

DDO is a MMORPG indeed, but while there's a vast amount of playable online content, this game can be played mostly as a solo adventure, albeit a little slower at times.

The whole party thing doesn't generally happen much and it's not a bad thing, and does not inhibit your gameplay experience, the only time it may become necessary to have a more moderate connection would be if you were aiming to play a support character.

This being said, I'm on one of the highest broadband connection speeds available in the UK, so I don't tend to get any issues with that, however 12 years of DDO can confirm that the game is just as enjoyable as a 50/50 solo game. Hope you enjoy!

I live in rural Ecuador with a 2Mbps microwave internet connection and I have no trouble at all playing DDO. I get no more lag than anyone else, even in raids.

That being said, the initial game download itself takes FOREVER. :)

Tieflings ARE an available race in Neverwinter - but that is a VERY different D&D game than DDO. Much more simplified, action-oriented... but it's free to play as well. It is playable solo up until about level 40 or so, then it gets difficult unless you party up. I haven't played Neverwinter in a couple years, so things might be different now.

For what it's worth, I play DDO solo & did quite awhile as a free player, but I am a VIP now and own all the expansions except the newest one Ravenloft, just released... DDO is **totally** worth being a paid member as you get access to pretty much EVERYTHING except the paid expansions themselves.

They have the inverse of the tieflings right now (Aasimar), and I have read that tieflings are on the way. Drow can be unlocked with favor (on a per server basis). You also earn a little bit of points with favor, but that comes in at about 25 points per 100 favor. You might be able to buy the others with that, but it would take a long time.
