    EQemu - Nagafen's Lair (Reborn)

    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...

    NFL 2016 - <whatever Tony is doing>

    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.

    NFL 2016 - <whatever Tony is doing>

    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...

    EQemu - Nagafen's Lair (Reborn)

    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...

    EQemu - Nagafen's Lair (Reborn)

    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).

    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).

    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.

    Everquest - Live Servers

    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).

    Autonomous Systems

    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...

    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...

    I did think the difficulty was at a good spot after all the changes were made tonight (seemed harder than earlier this week, but not retarded like it was this morning). Hopefully they can find that balance again. I'm also hoping I can figure out the flagging thing quickly when it comes back up...

    Yeah, it's a good time. I hit 49 on my monk, and 47 on my druid. Shame about all the server issues today. Especially since they're rolling it all back after whatever code they changed to ended up being garbage.

    Only slightly lifting related, but I bought a subwoofer for my home gym to get a little extra boom-de-boom going. It's amazing what a difference some heavier bass makes to my adrenaline during a lift.

    Glad to hear it. Only started yesterday after work, but I've had a blast so far. Could definitely see putting in a substantial amount of time on this one (as I said before, I played EZ server for a good 2-3 years back around 2009).
