If you are going to die anyway, why not let your necro create some essence emeralds?

Do you believe some of the changes in the new patch are focusing on botters? I am especially referring to the 6hr lockout on Heroic Adventures, but you may think of other measures that seem to be targeting botters.

Well done, Redbot! Thank you for all of your hard work! :)

Have you ever been killed by a cone shaped pile of crap they call a "Horror"? How did that make you feel about your character? Did you brag to your friends and family? Did you say, "I am feeling pretty good about this game. I may have died, but at least it took a cone shaped pile of crap to...

I can use only one word to sum up my recent experience of coming back to Everquest after a 10 year hiatus. That word is "LAME"! It is an almost endless grind with extremely slow rewards. A player must grind for levels, grind for AAs, grind for gear, grind for rep, and none of it is especially...

If you split the forum, I would be happy to do all of the work in reorganizing the current messages, putting new titles on old messages, giving footnote credit to the original posters, putting the new suggested rules in a sticky post, researching the web for other strategies, bugs, exploits...

No problem. It was just a wish for some constructive changes. Not a demand.

How well is this tool working today? It looks great in theory!

This forum has some great information, but it is difficult to find anything in it. I wonder if most people might ignore it because it is so big and confusing. If I had a wish for change, it would be that this forum would be split into three new forums with some rules for posting to each of the...

I like the makeup of Akiima's team. :-) In my limited experience: DRU+ENCH is best for CASTER team SHAM+BARD is best for MELEE team. I imagine your tank, bard, zerker, and ranger do some very nice melee dmg in that group. You have plenty of backup healers with the paladin, shaman, and...

Akatora, how long ago was it when you self power leveled your SK in the grounds? Was it prior to Feb. 2014?

How important is the Alchemy Trophy? I created a level 1 human to search West Freeport for Bauble Diggs because I cannot find him on map. Perhaps someone is farming him on my server, but I cannot find him.

Has anyone else tried this method? I"m curious as to how well it works for anyone else with lesser skills than razkle. For me, The Grounds ran very well until about lvl 90. Then, it became very slow.

I think this has changed. With the nerf of swarming, SK are not as survivable as they once were. They still make decent tanks, but they are no longer the best because they can no longer handle multiple adds the way a warrior can. I've seen several level 100 SKs wilt and die with just three...

When I played EQ the first time, 10 years ago, I played a Necro and two boxed a Cleric to follow him around and keep him and his pet healed. I was able to kite dragons that multiple groups struggled to kill. I got bored and started playing WoW. I won't bore you with the details, but I did a...
