  • I probably can't be considered an "old-schooler," but I've certainly been around long enough (PoP expansion) and I know good and bad graphics.  EQ is certainly nowhere near the top like it was when it first hit the stage.  It USED TO BE more "mystic…
  • Coming from a nerfed TLing/soulbinding wizzy, i heart the POK.  I can't imagine leveling up an alt or playing with noob friends without being able to use the POK.   No thanks!
  • Originally posted by nomadian Paragraphs! /agree Graphics sometimes bring me to games, but never keep me there.  It's content that I'm looking for.  Two of my favorite games (WWII Online and EQ) have poor graphics but the realism/content (respe…
  • and yes, the death system has changed.  You still have the same XP loss but you don't have to go on CRs any more.  Once ded, just summon your corpse in the "Guild Lobby," and ask your friendly Cleric there for a rez.  If you don't want a rez right a…
  • SOE can't win for losing.  A few years back, people were griping about EQ being such a time sink because it was so hard to find one's way around.  CR's took too long or were impossible.  Now we're griping about the devs givin us what we wanted.  The…
  • Wow!  I missed this thread a few months back.  Glad you bumped it back up.  Tasty stuff!
  • Trials should definately contain an in depth tutorial for noobs.  Sony lacks severely in this department.  I try to recruit people to Sony games, but I'm always losing them in the first week.  It seems that they quit because the can't figure out how…
  • Originally posted by Zorvan I won't bother checking. Even if I got it, I wouldn't play. EQ2 just bores the hell out of me. Luckily, I never went past beta with Vanguard, so it probably wouldn't affect my account, anyway. I tried to go past V…
  • Wha?  No EQ players made it? ...and I'm not sure you can say that the Devil Dogs are the most organized outfit in the game.  I was a member for a number of months and we rarely perfomed organized activities.  However, when we did, it was a game-ch…
  • I know they removed hell levels a long time ago, but compared to many years ago, how is the leveling process and time for progression?  In other words...did they increase the exp gain rate?  Nope, still one hell of a grind.  Unfortunately, unless …
  • As much as I'd like to tell you to buy it, I can't.  You would be leveling by yourself (unless you have some sort of miniature bot army).  It's best to join with friends that will play with you and level with you.  If you're starting a new character…
  • No additional programs are required.  Once you've patched your first instance and clicked play, you can proceed with opening a second instance.  You can even do three (but I wouldn't suggest it).
  • I think I'd throw a Shammy in there somewhere.  Yeah, it'll take away from your dps, but will help with slow/healing/buffage.
  • Originally posted by Biggieboy I was wondering if anyone knows if after the current progression servers are complete and up to date with the rest of the servers does EQ plan on doing the progression servers over again?  It would be a great idea t…
  • Originally posted by jmiles82 For starters, I played Everquest for over four years and loved the game.  I then started playing World of Warcraft and abandoned Everquest.  Both games have their virtues and their limitations.  Everquest has MUCH mor…
  • The hacking in EQ 1 is rampant and widespread.  The hacking a serious crackdown a few months ago, and it worked.  However, everyone is able to hack in full-swing now.... What are you considering hacking?  Maybe I know different people, but most of…
  • How is this working? I'm a former SWG subscriber, but don't plan on reactivating for the pack-up or the move.  Do you get to demolish homes and use the land?  Just curious as to how my old real estate is going to be violated
  • Originally posted by Daedalus732 Withing months of its launch, the company that developed Vanguard went out of business with massive condemnation on the lead designer who will now spend the rest of his programming days carrying on his conscience ho…
  •   Originally posted by Rydeson EQ1 is like your 15yr pet dog named Rusty.. He was great in his prime, but as he gets older, the slower and thinner he gets.. One of these days you need to made that final decision.. You will always have the memori…
  • I recently rejoined the WoW family to try out the expansion.  I thought the city was a great help for newbs like me.  Once I learned my way around the place, I found it quite handy.  As far as it's usefullness at higher levels, I wouldn't know.  Sti…
