I can't imagine blue has many scammers left. They'd have left ages ago since everyone would know them by now

You can actually pay Dial to transfer stuff, especially if you need your gear moved to a level 1 in Everfrost or something, they'll just run it over.

Fun blast from the past today - a gmail account I made back in 2010 to support another EqEmu account full of alts to hold extra shiny brass idols for use on pre-Kunark P99 Blue raids is expiring if I don't log back in! This important part of the internet must be preserved for posterity! I can look back on this kind of stuff fondly now, but man oh man I do not miss it.

Yeah not a lot new the last couple weeks, there's probably going to be some kind of seasonal event next week (but Secrets is busy moving, so maybe not.) Biggest recent change is making the island 6 and 8 bosses in Sky drop 2 quest items instead of 1

Any of you have a Fungi I could borrow on blue? I still pop into this dumb game a few times a week for some short solo sessions. I really like beating down mobs melee style.

This important part of the internet must be preserved for posterity! First of all, you do miss it, dont kid yourself, we're just too busy to play p99 anymore. I miss EQ every time there's a lull in my desire to play any of the countless other games out right now. Second, I should probably try to get back into my Rogue's account and see what gear i have lying around that i can hand to a goon or two, probably not much because i think i swapped everything out with HoT gear/sky gear.

Dude if you resurrected Swashy, I'd pull my Iksar warrior out of retirement. You're not wrong though. Like 80% of this game is unplayable with a job and kids, but I still enjoy the parts of the nostalgia trip.

It seems the game Monsters and Memories is intentionally recreating EQ1. What are the easiest classes/roles to fill in a party in EQ1? I posted a while back about advice on traveling around in EQ1 as a kind of MMO tourist; as someone who'd started with WoW I'd always wanted to go back and see the earlier game world. The advice I got then worked well and I visited most of the major cities and saw what it was like to level through a couple zones. But the character I played (druid?) was rather "busy", that was an OK compromise soloing because it gave me a lot of utility, But I love playing mechanically simple classes in MMOs; my favorite in WoW is paladin because you just turn on your seal an auto attack, and then in a party you just heal the tank with the same spell over and over. I also prefer armor wearing characters over mages. So, what are the easiest martial type classes to play in a group? My friends are almost certainly going to play M&M and I just want to chill out, watch the auto attack go or hit the one button repeatedly, and mostly just chat in discord. Is warrior simple or am I going to have to work to keep aggro? That always deterred me from playing a tank in WoW, I don't like being the center of attention or the shot caller.

Warrior is a bad pick because they don't tank well until raid time. Shadow Knight and Paladin are your best bet if you want to do what Warrior should be able to do as they have spells that allow them to keep aggro or to snap aggro on them from adds. And groups always need tanks - when I played Paladin on p99 I was getting tells from groups across the world because nobody wants to play melee besides sickos like me. It sucked our second time through because my buddy and I rolled Rogue and Shaman and we very rarely could find tanks leveling but when we did things went 10x faster.

Sounds like my favorite EQ class can just also be my favorite WoW class.

Enchanter charm is absolutely loving insane. Chanter/Monk/Shaman/Bard/Cleric/Whatever. Rogues are pretty one/two button, but almost every class in EQ is pretty low button, and you can macro a few lines to do everything you need in a few small buttons. i would have my attack/hide/backstab macro'd to a single button, if M&M allows things like that, you can eventually set yourself for success and do exactly a one button press while bullshitting in discord. iNteg fucked around with this message at 18:32 on Mar 6, 2024 |

Rogues are one button but I found myself enjoying my Rogue alt more than I thought I would. Their dps is absurd and positioning for backstabs is pretty fun. Some of their utility is fun as well like being able to stealth which is very handy for corpse retrieval on wipes.

Quarm is hanging in there. It's basically just catering to players with regular events, instanced raids, legacy loot (everyone has a GBS, fishbone earring, jboots, ...). Apart from that it's what you'd expect: pet guild, no staff online and very slow handling of tickets on Discord, but it all seems to be chugging along.

I've been having a good time on Quarm. I like the quality of life changes they've implemented but it still feels like actual Everquest where it's not totally easy mode and still requires somewhat of a time investment to level etc. It's a good balance between the total hardcoreness of p99 and the complete easy mode you'd see on like the Easy server or whatever

Sankis posted:I fell off Quarm in December or so. How's it doing now? Server population has definitely taken a hit over the last couple months. I think a lot of people are bored of vanilla EQ. Agree with the other person who said Kunark should have been launched earlier. Instances are part of the problem (not that I dislike them). Since you're not having to compete with other guilds to raid planes or dragons, you get gear pretty quick. As a result, I'm having to spend a lot of time in my least favorite zone, Plane of Sky, grinding quest items. It's still preferable to no instances and having the big zerg guild (project faceless) monopolizing everything. but good god, kunark can't come soon enough. Quarm was basically my first time playing in 20+ years and the world feels so much smaller than I remember. I want more zones to level in. I want to make an iksar. I want to raid something other than the planes and dragons.

I imagine the pop bounces back a good bit for the pre-launch event onward.

I got a character (monk) to max level on Quarm, and have really enjoyed just wandering giant zones and crawling the out of the way dungeons. Hoping to get into raiding, anyone have recommendations for good guilds that don't require attendance for raids? I was in a group where folks decided to get transphobic in chat while talking about the devs, which didn't sit well - would be glad to avoid that as much as possible.

I just started raiding in Sentinels. They seem pretty chill so far and have no attendance requirements or DKP. Everyone has been pretty nice so far. Works for me as well because they raid a bit later and I can't do early raids.

I am in Squirrels as well, and the raids are super relaxed, and everyone is quite helpful. No requirement other than obviously 46 to enter planes. Just show up and get loot! Tons of no DKP raids that are just rolls for loot, and since it is an alliance, dragon nights are multiple dragons.

Killing gators is boring as gently caress. Killing any mobs in this game is boring as gently caress. You need to find some friends or a group of people you enjoy shooting the poo poo with WHILE you're killing boring rear end gators. I met the best man at my wedding playing this dumb game and server. He's the OP of the thread. Unless you're a masochist and have an insane desire to just slam through it you gotta make it fun for yourself any way you can. I enjoy the progression, i like getting the gear and doing the camps. getting my epic at like level 23 or some poo poo on my Rogue also made it fun, but it really was the guild i was in and the people I was playing with that really made p99 enjoyable.

My problem is that i often don't have a lot of time where i can just sit in a full group at some spawn for 7+ hours in a row so i try to find small pockets where i might be able to spend like 50 minutes here or there getting a small pocket of exp. doesn't help that the gators also don't give poo poo money wise. E: tho dont get me wrong it'd be great to find someone to duo or more and just gently caress around, but everyone just seems intent on being greedy with pulls and wiping the group [I loving hate Paw so much]
