    I beta tested the new Mariner class the past couple days, and it's pretty interesting. It wont be a good class for me because it has a lot of complexity and combos to remember, but I am sure some people will love it.

    EQ TLP - Oakwynd (Evolving Ruleset Progression Server)

    AAs started out really fun because it allowed your class to evolve in cool ways. After that though, they just kept adding +% xyz to everything. AAs lost their appeal at that point. It just became the "hey we increased the mobs hit points and damage output by X% and there are the AAs you need...

    Well I didn't mean tank every thing good lol. What I meant was that in a pinch, you could throw in a non-plate class to tank if you couldn't find one LFG. As for your second question, there are things I like in many of the expansions. It's just the overall design pushes you to a "raid or get...

    EQ TLP - Oakwynd (Evolving Ruleset Progression Server)

    For me, it's not the game client that pushes me away from EQ. While a new game client would certainly be nice, It's the content direction over the years that ruins EQ for me. For instance, I just started my pally on the Mischief server, and while I am excited to play it, I know that what I...

    Created my pally last night. Forgot how stupid the tutorial is lol. I had like 3 different 41% haste items on my old toon lol. Too bad that shit doesn't stack. Going to take my time solo/moloing my way up on him. Being so over powered and having a merc healer to follow me around will be fun...

    This is pretty much par for these forums. New people here just are used to it. In fact, I'd say the response to the new guys here is tame compared to some in the past. These forums aren't for the weak of heart.

    EQ TLP - Mischief (Free Trade / Random Loot)

    I'll make my pally tonight after work. I'm kinda on hold right now with Oakwynd anyway as I am looking more towards later expansions than where they are right now. I should still have a lot of uber gear on my rogue there on Mischief. I'll see what I have that he can use.

    EQ TLP - Mischief (Free Trade / Random Loot)

    My very first character in Everquest was a dwarf paladin, so that actually would be a good idea. I started EQ as a dwarf paladin, and I could end it that way years later.

    I'd probably be pretty casual if I did. I've got a lot going on right now with Lotro streaming, work, and life. We'll see. What's the goto race for paladin at this point on the server or does it even matter?

    That's not too big an issue for me though seeing as they at least have Mercenaries now. I might make a paladin and run with a healer merc for some fun.

    At this point, I don't know why they don't offer the option to DZ Sleeper Tomb 1.0 once a month or something. Keep it rare, but at least give more than one group of people the opportunity at SoDs and tinkerer masks. What they have been doing on every server to date with the one-and-done...

    Well I mean, he's not wrong. Everquest went down the shitter over a decade ago. Most of us don't ever see the shit it has become because we only play the first few expansions of every TLP that comes out. If most people stuck around long enough on a TLP, they would find that the game...

    My guild folded in to another guild, and I didn't want to follow them to the new guild. Main thing is I am not looking for another guild to be my second job and shit. I just want to login a couple nights a week, raid, and log the fuck out. Do either of those fit that mold?

    The krono farmers need to BUY krono to fulfill their goal. You can't buy krono if you are on a quiet (aka. dead) server where very little krono is being sold Power leveling is a big part of krono farming, and if you are doing it on a dead server, you don't have near as many customers to sell...

    I know it's been said a gazillion times before, but honestly they don't run the game like as if they believe it has much time left. At this point, it feels like its a "get every penny you can before the doors shut" kind of environment. But... it's felt like that for many years now. It's...

    Anybody know if you can have multiple monks do the turn ins at the same time on some of the steps? My guild has 3 or 4 monks all ready to do the PoSky, Nurga, and Lake of Ill Omen steps. Do you have to do them all 1 at a time and wait on respawns of the turn in mobs? I'm curious because the...

    Maybe I missed it, but I didn't see a single "I got banned for no reason" thread for this one on the forums. Did they already delete the threads, or do the people that got suspended just really not care?

    No, but I do believe that these forums are a good sample size of people that like playing EverQuest. If we aren't that in to a server, it says a lot.

    I wasn't going to mention it, but I had noticed the other day that the Oakwynd server thread on these forums was already starting to fall off the list of threads with new replies and it hasn't even opened Kunark yet. Not a good sign honestly.

    The funny thing is that all the regular players on the official forums will be baffled as to why they made it easier to deal with FTE when power leveling rather than making it harder on the power levelers. It's so fucking obvious and people truly just refuse to see it. Bots run 24 hours a day...

    On Fippy, I remember being in the bath tub one night, getting a bat phone, jumping up, drying off, racing to the computer, logging in, going to target, and finding out we already got it down. That was the last time I put real life on hold for a batphone lol.
