I just started an enchanter on Blue. I remembered enough to make it to Qeynos and get bound there. Made it to level four and found the people nice (someone dumped a fine steel weapon for spell money on me, and someone else gave me a Green Silken Drape). Looking for an invite into the Unknown Guild, character's named Erianine. Currently on line and hunting Cuburt in the Qeynos sewers.

Where do they announce/list their scheduled downtimes, does anyone know? And how long do they last? I was just getting ready to finish my Stein of Moggok when there suddenly appeared a 15 minute countdown, I was lucky to get off the boat in OOT.

Dirt posted:Sidenote: I am super bored with P1999. I hit 50 like a week ago, and haven't played much since then. I joined some "raid guild" but they seem like weirdos. I think I might take a break for awhile. I just camped my Mage outside Unrest, I might login once in awhile to see if I can grab that Priest of Najena for that stupid cloak quest, but other than that I think I need a break. Oh hey I just got that item and I'm questing the cloak right now! I'd be easier with a porter but I love travelling and visiting places I've skipped on live, and it's a welcome change of pace to the Unrest group I had going last night. Edit: hahaha, I found the cells in Najena, dealt with the Tentacle Terror and Moosh yet barely survived, and then was relieved to see the High Elf NPC I needed in the next cell... So I rushed up to her only to get punched in the face: forgot I had illusion Dark Elf up. EVERQUEST! retpocileh posted:Just started playing on Blue.

You guys know anything about Enchanter research? I got A Faded Velishoul's Tome Page, and I cast Identify on it for about a hundred times but it all it says is Item Lore: A Faded Velishoul's Tome Page. No page number, nothing. I googled it, I crawled through wiki's and forum posts, I can't find anything but the straightforward actions that I've already been doing: hold the page, cast identify. What am I doing wrong?

I'm questing the Incandescent Mask and I just ran to Neriak to buy Mizr N'Mars Rune of Fortune there, but he doesn't seem to be carrying it. Do you guys know how merchant stock works on P1999? Will I have to wait for a server reset now before he has a new Rune of Fortune, or is it eight hours, or seven minutes, or what?

I recently picked up Blizzent's fang and would like to turn it in for the sweet sword in Kael, however I am of course on dwarf faction. As an enchanter my first thought was that I'd be able to charm the quest NPC for the hand in, as he is level 50 and you can charm mobs up to 51. Does anyone know if this can be done, or am I looking at a retarded faction grind if I want the sword? I'm only 47 myself so I'd enlist the aid of a higher level enchanter. Edit: Also, I petitioned Patoso, level 60 druid, for training and killing me because he thought I was trying to contest his camp and have yet to receive any reply. Are the guides/GMs very active on Blue? Meatgrinder fucked around with this message at 15:41 on Nov 6, 2015 |

lemonslol posted:How important is cha on an enchanter that is leveling, compared to INT or HP, MP, AC? It is really easy to get caster items with both int and charisma on them, and you get good charisma stat buffs early on. Don't worry too much about gear, it'll be good enough whatever you do. Getting AC and hps is more difficult and perhaps not so important if you're just leveling. MP you don't have to worry about since you have mana regen from level 16 onwards.

^^^^ a thing of beauty Holy poo poo I just have to share this. I just did Stables in CoM on my 39 SK. We had some ogre warrior tanking who had to log a few times because his main's guild was trying to get this or that dragon, at which point I'd tank. I was already pulling after the monk had left, which was fine since everything died fast and the bard was charming adds. All this time our level 44 cleric, the hero of this story, a gnome called Flavuhh Flav or something to that effect, had been nuking, then complaining he was low on mana. He never buffed me, though I asked five times and only healed me with a CH when I was tanking because the warrior had logged for five minutes. I started noticing something odd then too: the druid's strength kept disappearing. Now I know there's no mobs who dispell there, so I was a bit puzzled by this. After the third time the warrior isn't logging on again, the bard's long gone and the last of the DPS had to leave - this is noon for me at CET, but deep in the night for American timezones, so me, the cleric and the druid were the only ones in CoM left - I sit down after a fight and notice my strength buff is fading. I also notice it's not Storm Strength, but Reckless Strength. I ask the cleric to please stop casting that on me, as it causes me to lose the druid's strength buff. He insists that it keeps me from dying, so my hitpoints don't drop drastically right before a Complete Heal. I explain to him that the cleric spell Reckless Strength doesn't work that way and that he's thinking of the enchanter line of Berserker Strength spells. He argues some more and I just ask him to stop doing it and he agrees, and I start pulling again. I pull two mobs from the right sides of stables but more come, so I back off and FD. Out of the corner of my eye I see the cleric get up and cast bubbles, so I'm thinking he's casting IVU so the mobs won't aggro on him and the druid on their way back. The mobs start pathing back and the druid says "Uhhh", and I say it's ok, just wait for the last one and tag it... Ok tag it! Then I notice my group window. The cleric hadn't cast IVU, he'd gated. I ask the druid what the gently caress, and he says "Yeah, I've had trouble with that guy in the past." Really? This guy got up to 44 without anyone ever calling him out on his poo poo, nuking instead of healing and then just running around with a mob hitting him? Not buffing? Not knowing what his spells actually do? Gating out during a pull? Welcome to my ignore list, you little poo poo. Meatgrinder fucked around with this message at 13:10 on Jan 18, 2016 |

I've even had main characters pay lots of platinum because I ported their lower alts for free. Oh the general population on P1999 is actually fantastic, skilled players and kind individuals, which makes the inept and autistic people stand out all the more. But this guy, he was either drugged, drunk or 10 years old, no one is just that wilfully innane. Also there should be a TL to bind that instead of a dialogue box just displays the message GET OUT.

Hey you guys in BDA, I've got a cleric friend trying to hand in a shimmering pearl to Zordak Ragefire but they get beaten to the punch every time. Would it be possible to sort of get them in line for that, and if so, would that require payment? Any other higher up guilds are welcome to help as well. I don't know how many goons we got where, I just know we got a bunch in BDA. Cleric's name is Mufinz. I know epics are mainly a raid thing but I'm like, the more clickies on the server (that are actually active and, you know, owe you/your guild a favor) the better. Fake edit: what's with the oval office spamming EC about Braknar's wife being fat.

Kefit posted:Honestly the best way to approach this is to send a friendly tell to the person that beat them to the pearl turn-in and chat about it. A lot of the people who get pearl turn-ins are regulars who spawn Ragefire all the time so they can farm up and sell cleric epic MQs. They might be willing to step aside for a future turn-in so that a smaller guild can get a shot at it. The only way to find out is to ask. Thanks for the info! They're in Blackheart Pirates, who do raids and stuff with Kittens and Homeland so I guess they can handle it.

Kenlon posted:They removed the hybrid penalty last year, according to the wiki. So that's not a thing. I have a decent idea of what stats to look for, the problem is that I have no idea what items actually have them or what good prices for things are. I guess I'm just worried about being ripped off if I go advertising my cluelessness at the EC tunnel. There's a gear guide on the wiki for all classes, try checking out the one for clerics. Here's a life feed of the EC tunnel: http://ahungry.com/eqauctions Here's a good site that lets you browse goods that are on auction in the tunnel: http://www.p99auctions.com/ Depending on what time you play I could hook you up with some jewelry. One thing I did on my dwarven cleric was hand in bone chips for leather pieces (this was at very low levels, up until 10 I think) at the paladin guild in Kaladim, and then I did the Ogre Heads quest, specifically for the headpiece. I love the latter because it really reflects how quests are handled in EQ. Even now, there's a bunch of speculation on how to get the mobs to spawn, on how to best fight them etc. Some exploring, patience and luck needed!
