While I'm downloading it, is there a heavy good presence on Red?

Also, what is the most important resist for PVP? SV Magic? I ask because bards can pick just about any diety and I notice there are some diety-specific items and I'm wondering what would be best in the long run?

Sporadic presence.

Magic saves till 120-130 worn sounds about right last time i played red.

I was going to try p99 out. But I am partial to Luclin models. And I liked PoP. I played from 2000 to 2005.

So while I was researching p99 I came across the luclin graphic posts. And those threads really turned me off of the community. I almost gave up there.

But in one of the threads I saw a project 2002 reference. So I did some searching and found p2002.com. They are currently on kunark with velious on the way. And they plan to release pop.

Now they do allow boxing up to three. But that is not my bag. Still. I decided to try it out. And the community has been awesome to my wife and I.

Is anyone else playing on p02?

That's not classic.

At this point I'd start getting exp and saving your cash. Fungis are lower than ever at like 47k. If you can gather up 15k for an Iksar BP, it shouldn't be too hard to get 47k for a Fungi with some farming and grouping in Seb. You'll also need a poo poo ton of money for spells when you hit 60, but you probably know that.

Is it really worth springing for worn fungi vs. casted from the staff? Theoretically ikky bp and fungi staff would stack.

Is a third NTOV guild even possible right now given the current pulling strats and the zone layout?

WIth the windows reset you can see CSG folks buying the DA idols in ec this week if you watch for it. Safe bet to assume they will be running on some targets now that they have a chance with A/A preoccupied with literally all of tov/every other raid mob in a 20 hour window. They do tend to wipe on their pulls though but I've witnessed rustle/CSG do a few west mobs like gozzrem already while A/A were feuding over NToV poo poo.

Very nice! I remember being peeved that it didn't have the Rune 4 click like every other velious class set for chanters.

Can't decide between Iksar Shaman and Human Bard for the next toon to farm a Guardian Robe on. Maybe a mage to really juke people out? I am sick in the head.

So which one of you fine gents keeps ganking items during Awakened's recharge sessions? Just had a character named Jeans with an o-tag in Unknown Guild steal items again (for the 3rd time) during a recharge session, and then brag about it in tells.

Snitches get stitches. If you are dumb enough to have something happen three times without coming up with a theft-proof system I don't know what to say. get good?

There's no "theft proof" system for selling items to a vendor. It's just a dick thing to do, but goons guys amirite :human being:

Or you can hand off the items to wizard mules and not be a moron. You've been hosed many times use that grey matter and I think you will easily come up with a theft proof system.

Grats man, that feels!

You can open a petition on the message board and tell them when you deleted it.

They will check the server logs and most likely restore it in a batch job at some point.

I have derped seb/hs keys and jboots before, they will restore if you can wait a while. I ended up with double seb/hs keys somehow on my enc after it was all done.

It can take months though. Double OT hammers would be nice however! I remember Sirken restored a peggy cloak on my monk who had jacked someone's cloak in the meantime. Ended up with two peggy cloaks that didn't interact like lore items do usually.

Whichever one of you goonfuckers is the GL of Kittens Who Say Meow kindly quit poo poo talking me to literally every person you meet. Out of the three interactions I ever had with you the blood level of alcohol/benzos must have been so high that you promptly forgot about those conversations the following day in each instance. Wouldn't say that makes you a very good judge of character. Worthless junkie.

That is the one thing I find fault with on p99, and it is no fault of anyone but time: I absolutely love Qeynos, but it is deserted, as are so many spots. I leveled numerous characters on Live between classic and PoP and there were always people playing, everywhere: there were always groups in Black Burrow, Cazic Thule, Guk, Paw, heck, even Dalnir. The population on p99 is mostly 60s or twinks soloing; the server has grown too old and too rich to still capture completely what EQ was like in 1999.

Still plenty of new people coming in all the time. So while you may not find people in those places if you have an ounce of charisma(lol goons) it isn't hard to network your way into a group at those spots. 1-40 I still get those classic feels.

What were your different sources of income and what tiers were they at?

Was a bulk of it lucky drop wins from raiding or did you have some kind of system for market trading in place that you rode for awhile with consistency?

I’m going to go ahead and assume this wasn’t a decade of straight plat farming.

All of it was accrued doing EC trades. Wrote an app that would alert me via email if any favorable looking WTS/WTB came up. Then I would teamviewer from work or wherever I was at if not home to do the trades(this part sucked due to the lag you get when using that poo poo program!) I had only been at it for 11-12 months. I lost millions months and months ago just for funs trying to crash the haste market which kinda worked. Might try to go for even more funbux and try the same market crashing on Velious droppables or just ride off into the sunset at this point. It's been fun, bai.
