Hi, so I played from right around the time NW went live, until right before Mod 2, I think. GS 11105, or something. Had most of the tier 1 pieces and a couple of tier 2 pieces when I quit.

Wanted to check in with you guys to see if I'm on the right track towards getting back into the game. I've done a bit of reading, so I'm not trying to be lazy and have you hand me detailed instructions, just a few pointers.

1- Just got rank 1 artifact. I think I need to refine it more, or does it advance just from xp?
2- Just started doing dailies for Sharandar, Dread Ring, and Dragons. I understand that I can't even start Icewind Dale until I get to tier 3 in Sharandar and Dread Ring, according to the ingame tooltips. These lead to boons and artifacts that are cool or something, and drastically inflate gear score.
3- Dungeons- It's my understanding I should go after specific tier 2 and above dungeons to try to complete those sets and become the GF I'm supposed to be.
4- Weapon enchantments- A bit confused on this one...Not sure which one is the best for a conqueror pve tank. Also, you can pull an enchant out of one weapon to put in another, correct?
5- Daily foundries, skirmishes, etc. - Should I even bother? The rewards vs time don't seem great, especially since it wants you to do four freaking foundries for the daily reward.
6- What's next? Other than working on the boons and artifacts from the campaigns, what should I be looking at for progression? The harder dungeons, I'm guessing?

    1. Refining not xp.
    2. The dread and shara boons cause more GS bloat than the IWD boons. You will get dread to 3 first. I highly advise using the cask of campaign teasures to get more fey spark as Shara takes forever without it.
    3. Ctr. J will show you which gear drops in which dungeon. For PVE Conq you probably want Timeless.
    4. GPF
    5. Circumstantially. Ifyou have refinement left and time on your hands it is some quick RAD.
    6. VT/ MC/ CN, ToD progression, PVP fpor which you will need Tenacity gear.

    GPF stands for Greater Plague Fire, correct?

    Thanks for your other answers.
