It's "possible", but it's going to take you LONG.
You can't sigil, you can't travel fast, you'll always respawn at ley, you won't progress further than dl, perhaps not even frozen cause you can't solo the bosses with bad gear, which you'll ultimately end up with as you won't do trades and can't solo bosses that give decent gear without getting decent gear in the first place. You're dps will be bad because you don't have any premium items so you'll have to invest points in things you would usually not have as many points in.
Long story short, you're trying to solo play a game that almost completely relies on the social aspect.
I wish you good luck but there are so many factors add up and will work against you that it becomes almost impossible. I hope to see you reach 220 in 2030 though.
Did he say he wouldn’t ever buy BP expands? For me the impossible part is he can’t ever get hot bar slots.
They are small but boy are they needed at EG.
It partially depends on the class that is chosen. Druid/Ranger/Warrior would probably be best for this challenge (especially thinking ahead to trying to kill bosses solo). Rangers also tend to need the least in terms of lux in my experience. I think Mages and Rogues are both a little too squishy to play in this format.
The whole fuss over hot bar slots doesn't make much sense for me. It's possible to play without hotbar expansions, even up to endgame. In my experience, the only time it gets difficult is if you start to use more than 5 skills, which doesn't happen very often. (5 skills, mount skill, pet skill, restos/food). I can't really think of anything else that is desperately needed enough to make it "impossible". Yes it's handy to be able to hotswap gear like OG mounts and normal weapons, but it saves what, 5 seconds? Maybe 10 max? (if you have a slow device and/or a massive amount of items).
I agree that at endgame, hastes and dmg foods, as well as any gear skills or alternate gear is all good to have immediately at hand. However, I wouldn't say that it would be impossible to play without hotbar slots. Plus, I think that for this challenge...worrying about hotbar slots is probably the least of their concerns for the immediate future. Once they get to midgame they can worry about it
