Guys, i need help on where to level. Currently level 84 wizard kiting in toskirakk and even doing the weak boars with lesson on it's slow as all hell. Planning on getting some more AAs at 85, around 1k AAs right now.

Catullus posted:Guys, i need help on where to level. I liked the gators in loping plains because they basically spawned just as fast as I could kill the full coast while having minimal downtime. So I would use the vet aa to restore hp/mana if that was up, and could typically kite for 30 full minutes before needing a break. Mana potions and other gimmick mana regen is nice to keep in a groove. It felt faster than tosk to me and was so easy that I could easily watch TV without paying attention to the screen much at all. Now and then I would take an ooc regen break. Bind at the little hill, and secondary bind at the gator teeth turn-in, since that gives pretty sweet aaexp.

There is a small surge of goons playing Al'kabor (EQMac server) right now, which can be played on the PC, for free. Thread here: http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3516757

Anyone have any extra rustic wraps (and/or plat) that they could copy over to test for me? On test as Riverrs or Funzoe.

Is there still enough activity to merit moving to Luclin? I just restarted my account and have a 66 monk in Drinal. Also, is there a way to reset AA's? I seem to have had poor taste in selecting them back when...

I would not move to Luclin unless the guild really picked back up in my absence. Our crew generally plays a few months a year starting in March or April, then we quit again over the summer until the itch hits us again the next year. I think 2013 will be year 4 straight we've done that

Only five members of the Luclin guild have logged on in the last month, if that answers the question.

Well crap, that sucks. Decided to give it a try after 10+ years away, was looking forward to some goon grouping. So uh, is there any noob warrior crap rotting in the guild bank, then?

Is there anything I should do first thing before going out to get levels and such since it has been such a long time? I don't need like any flags or something? Also, whats a good place to get AA's/XP solo at 66?

Depending on how long it's been since you've played, the first thing you should do is go to the Bazaar and buy some Defiant armor. They have different types for each level range, and it has ridiculous stats compared to old school items of the same level. I think pretty much all of the old zones have had their flags removed and simply require a minimum character level to enter if that (ie you can zone into any PoP zone without any req other than level). At 66, go level in The Hole (Ruins of Old Paineel) until 70, and then switch to AA exp and stay there until your eyes/fingers/dick bleeds.

2X2 Eyes posted:Do I need a merc for the Hole? Not sure I can afford one for long. Free mercs are cheap as poo poo. The upkeep is like a small amount of gold upkeep for the free mercs. If the server transfer is free and you don't have any connections on your current realm, you're more than welcome to come over to Luclin and I'll help you get rolling again.

Transfers to non-test non-rz servers aren't free. And it is NOT worth transferring a level 66 to another server. It is super easy to get those levels and AA now. But mercs are super cheap and definitely worth using at those levels. Just kill some poo poo in the hole and sell some gems to pay for mercs. Use your epic since it is always a bonus to your hth unless you have better. I think I quoted how the monk epic works now in one of my posts in this thread. Check out the eq forums to find your class's serverwide chat, it should be a good place to ask random questions about your class. Druid chat helped me when I was coming back, but I obviously didn't deal with monk chat. There may or may not be some kind of quick guide to your class that will cover the new stuff your class has gotten over the past 6 years.

Aye, its $25 to transfer... may just start a new character/class at this point. Will probably do a necro. They weren't to sought after back when I played unless it was for summon corpse; but then again it seems enchanters aren't as big as they used to be either. SK sounds fun too but it sounds like everyone has one and that they take a LONG time to get them where they need to be.

Awesome. My main duo is a bard and a rogue, but I also have slightly lower level shaman and ranger duo. I was able to scrape a couple rustic wraps and osmium templates off of the bazaar on test, but not much. I basically need everything except chain feet on my rogue and everything except the plate arms on my bard. Thanks!

Just got a bard through the tutorial on luclin. Is it worth grabbing the complete consignment armor bundle with my extra coins or should I just wait for drops/look in the bazaar?

Join the serverwide.gchat:fygm channel. If anyone on server is online, there's good odds they have some plat/gear kicking around, and there's bound to be some in the guild bank for sure. E: Also posting your character's name in thread is good for people to find you and rain buffs on you.

The new expansion is live. Some pretty neat changes, although I'm busy with EQMac right now.  quote:New Rain of Fear Game Features: quote:After purchase, two delivery options will be available: delivery to the nearest parcel vendor (available for a modest fee* in game coins), or expedited delivery (via our new Expedited Delivery Vouchers** available in the Marketplace) which delivers the item straight to your cursor.

All Tier 1 raids down plus two tier 2 raids. Probably beating the expansion tomorrow. I have basically no clue about the group stuff in RoF so far, but it should be easier than VoA. All of the zone 'progression' quests are supposed to give really good exp so you can do those instead of just grinding to 100. Do not buy the market place armor, ever. Defiant is the same thing and super cheap in the baz.

MrTheDevious posted:What the gently caress, expansion is so easy it's finished in TWO DAYS? Everquest, what have you become There's no raid keys, the only thing slowing down raid progression is that you need T1 beat to flag for T2, and non-Xorb T2s done to flag for Xorb. And that someone has to do the group tasks in a zone to request the raid. Of course, this is the guild that beat VoA a month before anyone else and no one was in T2 when we stopped raiding last night. This guild is really completely different from any other raiding I've done. A raid that slows RoI down for days would be punching another guild in the dick for weeks.

I thought I would try out the hole but it feels like I may be doing something wrong. AA's just come flying in when I kill stuff, but XP just seems to not budge. I am killing all light blues I can see. Should I be doing something in particular?

I am killing all light blues I can see. If I remember right, the mid 60's is where you start getting to the "brutal" point where each kill doesn't always make the XP bar move a percent. Still though, 100-200 kills for a level is peanuts compared to the good ol' days.

You also have approximately a million percent bonus to AA exp for being at a low AA count. So your AA exp does come in a LOT faster.

For getting regular experience, kill dark blue or higher conning monsters. That works a lot better, unless you're with a headshotting ranger or doing some other method of really fast killing.
