Your feet feel quick. Your feet feel quick. Your feet feel quick. Took the plunge for 7k from Veulaven, and I already know it was totally worth it. So much for saving for Holgresh Beads though! Anyway, I'm back in Kunark trying to raise my 2HB skills...and it's so drat slow. Anyone recommend anything to speed it up? *edit* Zaphod42 posted:Are tradeskills worth the investment on 1999? No, and yes. In classic, most trade skills are fairly expensive to raise with limited payoff. Also note that given the lifespan of the server all trade skills are essentially covered. The following I consider "good" trade skills: Alchemy for shamans (duh) - everyone loves pots! Fletching for rangers - make your own arrows to save money! Jewelcraft for enchanters - everyone loves jewelry! Tailoring for druids and casters - backpacks and other cool gear! Other than that, a few high end quests like Coldain Shawl and Coldain Ring make good use of trade skills. Anarch fucked around with this message at 11:40 on Aug 26, 2015 |

Completed my Words of Darkness quest, and only lost 2.5 blue bubs net in the process. Challenging at lvl 30 but drat fun.Summit posted:I have about 750pp, what's the best thing I could buy for a low level Shadowknight to make life a little easier? I do have a Circlet of Shadow (pre nerf) already which I sank basically all my plat into awhile back. I don't think I could afford it now so that was a good decision.

Chiming in with a few Iksar necromancer tips! GEAR Your priority is HP, so get fire wedding rings and other HP gear. INT has limited returns at lower levels, so don't worry too much about it. Personally, I went HP>STR>INT so I could tank, spank and haul loot; it's been super effective. Try to save for a Circlet of Shadow, which is the best necro utility item besides jboots. It will be removed at some point toward the end of the SOV timeline, so you have some time to save for one. The Temple of Sol Ro welcomes Iksars on P1999, so that's a good source of equipment quests around 30-35. MAINLAND FACTION The Bloodsabers in the Qeynos Aqueduct are the only mainland necromancer guild that will welcome you. They have a bank, trainers, and vendors. This is an important faction to protect if you leave Kunark before 30, but will limit your hunting because some corrupt Qeynos guards, High Hold guards, and others will possibly drop that faction. Other than that, you can easily fix the basic guard and merchant factions of Neriak with the infamous red wine quest. This also opens up the greater lightstone quests in SRo. However, all Neriak guilds including the Dead will still want to kill you. At 34 you'll get Call of Bones, which will improve your faction with most evil races and guilds.

Eerkik posted:I never took anyones advice of rerolling into a magician, still a shadowknight. Finally hit level 3, I don't have a ton of time to play but holy gently caress this is some slow leveling. I should just kill the blue con skeletons for a chance at those cracked staves though right? Anyone have a really low level character they might want to group with around qeynos around midnight pst tonight (after work for me, been working a lotta doubles)? I still have no idea where anything is around me but I can reliably find the underground place with shadowknight trainers and make it back out to north qeynos to more monsters now, just takes me a bit. Not sure if I'd be better off traveling somewhere else or just sticking around here, but the idea of leaving is kinda intimidating with out any sort of map. If I'm on I'll drop you some monies, since Welt is hunting in the Qeynos area. What's the name of your SK?

Dirt posted:I never play anymore. Anyone on blue want my cash/items? I dont have a ton. Maybe ~3k in cash and a CoS and some other random valuable poo poo. My Mage has maybe ~6k in gear, plus some resist gear in the bank. Welt here! Sad to see you go dude. I could use the cash toward my bead fund but eh, seriously feels wrong if you consider coming back at some point. Minimum, save that CoS for your Erudite SK because we never know when the drop will be nerfed; if you need I'll stash it for you.

You could quest for a Jaggedpine Crook which is slightly better than a splintering club, but also magical. Another cheap but worthwhile upgrade would be a Springwood Club.

Bybus Slago posted:SRo AC cycle I'm pretty sure that the Ancient Cyclops, as well as Pyzjn, are force-spawned similar to the Kithicor Forest undead at 9 PM game-time; however, you're likely to get one of their old placeholders instead. For what it's worth, I have personally witnessed the AC spawn at exactly 9 PM game-time and didn't see anyone hunting in the SRo desert area prior to his spawn. The question that remains is whether killing their placeholders during night hours will force another possible spawn before morning.

Pwnz0r posted:Always thought there was a rule against a guide or GM playing on the same server while retaining their staff access on P1999. But apparently on red, there is a guide who is also free to play his normal character. It wouldn't be so bad, but apparently hes very open about it to the point of sending tells on his non-guide character saying "see ya in 2 weeks!" before person gets suspended.

I'm away from EQ for the next few months but when I get back that would look dope on my enchanter. If you can enchant the adamantite (level 49) and farm the temper (kill a bunch of shadowmen and a few lfay elves), it'll only cost a few hundred platinum for the adamantite. It's honestly one of the easiest cultural armors to make. SoUr posted:Is this because of lack of skill? Anarch fucked around with this message at 19:57 on Apr 3, 2016 |

This is silly because Thunder Runed War Spears (13/30 with decent stats) average 800p. Small dragonbone shard (13/26) is 1k-2k, but is limited to small races only. Frozen Shard (13/26 with a proc) and Serpent's Tooth (13/27 with minor stats) go for about 2k each.
