Some of the Velious shit really ramped up the difficulty in my opinion. Almost all the flagging mobs would probably take at least a full group of people to do, assuming no overgeared help. I think that actually VP was probably the first place where I was like, shit, I definitely need help.

I think this is where we end up differing from several people in the guild. Some people want to figure out quests, and others of us want to just enjoy grinding levels and gear. Djevel mentioned that he found the NPC's because they're ones unfamiliar to him from classic. I addressed that before...

Is our draft locked for labor day? Haven't seen any discussion about it.

I don't know how you people watch preseason. I remembed that the Rams game was on cause it's local. Fuck watching this. It's atrocious. And meaningless. First preseason game I've tried to watch this year, and definitely the last.

And that's kind of my issue with this 65 quest. There are literally thousands of NPC's, and unless you're some kind of fucking Everquest savant and can pick out the NPC who doesn't belong in each of the dozens of zones, you'd never know if it were a normal quest or this custom one. Like, the...

I just want to rant about some of you fuckers for a second (and I mean that in the nicest way possible, I'm not really "mad" just annoyed). This level 65 quest shit, I went off on a bit of a tangent in game. The quest is written incredibly poorly, and people in the guild defended it by saying...

This isn't even surprising though. The only surprising thing is how early into the season it happened. But literally everyone has been predicting Romo going down with an injury. It's what he does.

There's also the issue of MMR difference. Not sure someone 4k is going to want to play with someone 1k.

Threw me off that there's an Emulator forum now. Couldn't find the thread at first. Just hit 60 on both characters. I'm guessing it's grind out AA's and hit up Velious mobs (Luclin flags) now? Epics are done. What else can I do?

Not watching the game, but man do the Redskins have a shit load of weapons on offense. Reading that Vernon Davis is looking sharper than he has recently. So you've got Reed who is turning into a superstar, Davis, Desean Jackson, Pierre Garcon, and Crowder probably in the slot. If the Redskins...

Tight hamstrings run in my family. Haven't been able to touch my toes since I can remember (pre-elementary school maybe?). I'm not inflexible though. In fact, I'm ridiculously flexible otherwise (had a chiropractor actually tell me I was suprisingly flexible once). But touching my toes is...

Nah, I was off trying to do something else. I can't even remember what though. Just finished up my monk epic though. I guess it's not a big deal that there are lots of monks though. It's not like there's hardcore raiding going on where we need to do dkp.

I'm regretting monk just because there's a fucking million of em. Not sure what else I would've rolled though.

I only know about where the planes flagging was because of the guild. Otherwise the comments from the NPC are incredibly vague and you'd be searching zone by zone for an NPC you don't even know the name of. That kind of works in EQ in 2000 when you have everyone slaughtering mobs, but I'm not...

Kind of surprised the Raiders didn't register "Las Vegas Raiders" a long ass time ago, just in case. It's peanuts to do for an organization like an NFL team. Like, I know Dan Snyder is sitting on all kinds of retarded stuff, like "Washington Warriors," and has had them for years. You just...

Thanks, wish there was more info about the server progression published somewhere. Stuff like the Planes unlocking, what the 65 flagging is, normal flagging, etc. Seems like there's a lot of information available, but you have to ask another person in game. Otherwise good luck.

Yeah, I had Sifodias who was going to run me through VP, but I crashed and then the server got rebooted and he never returned. I did get a Fabled Fungi Tunic though out of the one kill. The group of us that are all around 55-59 should try to hit up VP tonight or tomorrow. Is it a 4 hour...

Maybe we should start playing together again? Then again, I feel like a year ago when I was a complete noob, I was doing way better than I am now.

Since I'm running a druid, I cast Resist Magic on my monk constantly. Doesn't make any difference. But like you said, I'm pre-65 anyway, and it's a bitch to find worthwhile gear period, much less stuff that has resists on it.

I know it's a different era, but Bo Jackson went from overall #1 to the Bucs, to #186 (7th round) in the following year. And I'd say he was a substantially better player. Oh, and his reasoning for not signing was a hell of a lot better. If I were a GM, I wouldn't use a 1st or 2nd day pick on him.

Jesus, that's insane. Okay, I guess I don't feel as bad now. Let me tag along, bro. Speaking of AA's, are most people waiting until 60 (or 65) to start farming AA's?

This. It's kind of a crappy way to go about it, but it's kind of necessary. In Chardok, for instance, I tried farming the ph for iksar betrayer for about 2 hours with no luck (Chardok is also on a 1/2 respawn timer; so 11 min instead of 22...which means I camped it for "4 hours"). Using the...

Not really sure about this decision to have a GM event dropping retarded loot. So far it seems like Tunes has been pretty adamant that we can't even zone into certain areas without getting the appropriate flag, even if it makes literally no sense game wise. But now what motivation does someone...

I guess I should start working on a VP key. No clue what I actually need. I should also probably focus on leveling instead of just doing my epic quests (although I'm getting so close to finishing them).

I'm sold. Feel like you were marketing this directly at me.

Nice. I was just concerned about Vorash/Deep/Xenovorash fight, since it was so much back to back. I'm at 53 right now, monk/druid, so I think I'll give it a shot. Worst case is I just have to kill 3 mobs again (well, haven't done the Nurga one yet).

I wasn't sure it was working with Brother Qwinn, but it definitely did. I'm hoping I can use it to spawn the tainted mobs for Druid epic. Clearing ph's for those fucking SUCKS. If I just focus on that tonight, I can probably finish both my epics. I'll likely only need help with one of the...

Oh shit, good to know. I farmed Skyfire for a while yesterday and never got the book to drop, so that explains why. I did get the Cleric pearl thing if anyone needs (it's tradeable).

You mean the robe? The immortals book I thought was from Skyfire?

I'm not sure what the rate is, Kirun, but I did Chardok yesterday and never saw a single PH. Granted, there's so much shit in there that I may just have not realized it, but named mobs were pretty much all over the place.

Not only that, but the ability to grind faction with non-city factions. Not many games allow you to have faction with the "monsters" so you can use their cities. I think that might have been the beauty behind Velious. Using the Giant city merchants and bankers? That's just fucking cool. One of...

Are most of the epic mobs duoable? Wondering if I can solo them or will need help. I was able to do the ones in classic, but not sure how Kunark compares.

No placeholders. Drop rates don't seem any different in my experience, but who knows.

Sky is weird. When I jumped off last night, all my spells were unmemmed like I died. I'm addicted to this like I was to EQ back around 99-00. I played for like 20 min during my lunch break. Like...why?

The attunement stuff is back in, so it's a bit more difficult now, too (well, more expensive).

Haven't made it through the entire thread yet, but I'm amazed that some of you think it'll be 30-40+ years before this is a thing. I'd bet by 2030 autonomous cars on the road will outnumber manually driven ones (normal cars will still outnumber autonomous ones, but likely not be on the actual...

Maybe I just suck at leveling? Geez. I guess I did spend an inordinate amount of time flagging yesterday, and Saturday was marred by the server going up and down. I think I started Thursday and I'm at 52.

I did Lavastorm from about 1-12, and then Solusek A until 20-23ish. I mostly chose these because you can port straight to Lavastorm, and not waste time with the short dmg shield that you get from the buffer. After that, Lower Guk and then Solusek B. Do solb until you get flagged for everything...

Dafuk? What drugs is he on, holy shit?

Had a ton of help from you guys getting flagged for Kunark. Was pretty awesome the amount of people who came for Phinny (and apparently also did Naggy/Vox, and after the planar flagging for others). Where's the best place to level in Kunark at 52? Sebilis? Karnors? Would like to be able to hit...
