Any ideas where a couple 51 druids and a 54 monk can get some exp?

Been trying to do some UG groups lately.

Previous UG forays have been successful on my 30 bard (Vedder) and 40 SK (Noctolin). Looking forward to that hybrid exp pen being patched out.

Lets try and do more UG groups in the future.

That was nuts tonight. Had like 4 goons in our HHK basement group, and probably like 6 goons altogether went through the group over the evening.

On the Lower Guk front we had a lot of mishaps, pretty much all caused by trying to IVU to Assup or multi-wizard pulls vs feign death. I've learned my lesson, when I am trying to guide newer players down there we are definitely going to just clear the entire way. Exp is fine doing that at 40. Klaymen is an MVP for his evac when we were down to 8% health. Thanks to everyone who showed up, sorry it wasn't smoother and I hope we can try again tomorrow. Personally I had a lot of fun since I don't mind dying to lguk shenanigans, only thing I worry about is other goons having a poo poo time since I formed the group.

I'm up for more this weekend.

Interesting 50+ UG 4 man group yesterday in SolB, but I think we should maybe find somewhere more worthwhile to hunt in the future. Ha ha.

That being said, even with the death, still managed to get 10%+ exp for the endeavor.

I just started my first P99 character, having a blast. I had forgotten what a naked corpse run felt like, it really adds some significance to getting killed.

Is the goon guild good for a worthless newb like me, or is there a goon endorsed leveling guild out there? I doubt I'll ever be a raider, but I miss that green text in guild chat.

Ya, do / all "Unknown Guild".

I can do an invite on "Mauzer" atm, if you're on. What's your name?

Swarming hits its sweet spot at level 18 when you get Denon's Disruptive Discord. Message Tarts in game and I can show you how to swarm.

Also if any of you on Blue have lying around or come across Lambent armor in EC (I can't stare at auctions 24/7), paying 300 for boots, gloves, braces and 400 for helm and greaves.

I'll keep my eyes open for Lambent and I might have to have you show me how to kite, swarm or otherwise, sometime too on my bard too. Ha ha.

After reinstalling EQ and realizing that the live server is nothing like what I remember, I got P1999 up and running and started an Enchanter on blue. I quit EQ over 10 years ago so I forgot many of the game's subtleties, and selected Tunare for deity when creating the character. I am now level 10 and not very willing to reroll as I'm quite some hours in, but everyone is telling me that by not being Agnostic, I locked myself out of the Enchanter epic as well as a bunch of quests and spells. Am I truly hosed or are there workarounds for this?

Lev 10 is nothing especially considering the availability of power-leveling (can get to 10+ easily in a session). I would definitely re-roll as Dark Elf Agnostic.

I've been logging back in here recently and tooling around with my bard and I'm discovering that for whatever reason my mouse likes to randomly hitch when I'm trying to swarm kite at low levels and it's getting me killed too often to be lucrative xp wise. So I've been tooling around with the idea of rolling another character. Anyone able to sound off on demand for Clerics vs Shamans currently? I know cleric demand is always high, I just didn't know if there were enough people playing them to drive down their demand overall. I also know Clerics can be dull as all hell to play too, though being able to rez is a huge boon.

Edit: Would it be worth it to go high elf cleric for their amazing cultural tradeskill platemail or is it better to go for dwarf/halfling for small size and better strength?

I chose Dark Elf for my Cleric for Hide, the snare click neck (Regent Symbol of Innoruuk, which is also available to Inny worshiping Troll Shamen), and they look cool, IMO. As for tradeskilling, I hope you have a lot of money to burn if you're going down that route.

You won't be able to use em for a while but you should save up for Elder Spiritist's Vambraces (clicky DoT) and Gauntlets (snare). You'll also want a Luminescent Staff eventually for mana-free quad nukes.

I can probably Smith the Inny stuff. If you can gather the mats (or need help doing it), got a 56 Wizard with 168 Tailoring and 120 Smithing.

Here's my ingredient list for what I need (Imbued Plate Arms, Chest, Legs and Enchanted Chain Coif) assuming I got the math right (and no failures, highest trivial is 240, LOL).

3x Enchanted Adamantite Jointing – Crafted
- 3 x Enchanted Adamantite Rings – Crafted
-- 3 x Enchanted Lrg. Brick of Adamantite - Summoned
-- 3 x Neriak Nectar - Bought, Quested
- 3 x Neriak Nectar - Crafted, Bought
8 x Enchanted Folded Adamantite Sheet - Crafted
- 8 x Enchanted Block of Adamantite - Crafted
- 8 x Neriak Nectar - Bought, Quested
3 x Imbued Sapphire - Summoned (My cleric can do this)
3 x Leather Padding - Crafted
4 x Shadow Temper - Crafted
- 4 x Elven Blood - Dropped
- 8 x Essence of Shadow - Dropped
- 4 x Neriak Nectar - Bought, Quested
1 x Silk Swatch - Crafted
- 2 x Spider Silk
2 x Enchanted Adamantite Rings – Crafted
- 2 x Enchanted Lrg. Brick of Adamantite - Summoned
- 2 x Neriak Nectar - Bought, Quested

I'm assuming that the main things I need to farm are the Elven Bloods and the Essence of Shadow, right? I can pay for any of the merchant sold bits, of course.

Do 24 - 35 in High Hold Keep basement goblin groups. There's only enough room really for one group at a time, but it's solid money and killer exp. I usually make ~3k or more on each alt I run through here at those levels.
