Here's Super Simple Utility #2, since a few folks seemed to enjoy the groundspawn.mac. I did this quest twice manually, and then decided there must be a better way. (/em gazes in despair at about 100 stacks of skins to grind through.) I put the quest information and instructions directly in...

Nice tips. You aren't alone. The most recent patch was a resource hog. Before that last patch, I could run 7 characters on one machine (boxing 5 actively with 2 mostly sitting around.) and still have decent performance. Now, with all 7 sitting next to Banker Maxforthe in the Bazaar, it is a...

Oh, and all this time I was going to Kenetix for support when I could have been pm'ing you instead. Darn. Yes, the customer service sucks, but those plugins are so darn addictive. /em unsuccessfully tries to plug the sucking chest wound on his wallet. And no, don't PM me about the plugins...

The situation is that some zonings are dangerous, i.e., sitting there invised for 30 seconds is a likely invitation to bind. I tried targeting myself and continuing once target is validated. I tried opening my inventory window and waiting until EQ says yea-verily my inventory is open, under the...

zxcvbb, could you speak up please? (/em stops to clean the wax out of his ears). Couldn't hear you... I SAID, I COULDN'T HEAR YOU. (/em taps the microphone) Hmm, Tradertesla wondered aloud, "Is this thing on?"

One time I asked for a rez from an anon cleric, when asked how I knew he was a cleric, I just said that I keep a list next to my computer of clerics that have helped me out in the past. Kinda lame, but he rezzed me and went on...

"noob, Dick and Harry" My name ain't Harry, I prefer not to be a Dick, so I must be a noob...

There are intrinsic restrictions on classes/levels, etc. Not every class has every ability. A) Click the link provided. B) Your answer is there.... I have already put more time into answering your question than you did.

Re: RedQuest v1.2 Just open your map before walking into a zone line. Same thing happens. The map shows what looks like a warp to some other spot in the current zone prior to the screen going black. If so, that means that SOE must apply filters to their movement logs in order to extract...

Re: RedQuest v1.2 I have summoned my corpse once, when it was stuck in a rock. Even if it does involve a warp, I was standing right next to it already. The distance was extremely small, and my assumption is that any movement logs would not show a noticable discrepancy.

Oh, and to answer the question of how to find out about things earlier. One good way is to keep your eyes open... Let's say you notice in the Baz that a certain player, let's call him HalflingMan, is auctioning some items at below half price. The next evening Mr. HalflingMan is auctiong the...

I think it's funny how many pages this thread has grown to. What the heck, I'll add my 2 bits for good measure. * Yes, Redguides is easily worth the price. I can mooch of off other people's work and use my limited time getting direct benefits. :rolleyes: * No, Redguides doesn't have all...

Actually, players who farm for items and run those 24X7 traders tend to drive prices down, not up. They find a niche and farm it. They simply don't sell frequently enough to combat LORE issues unless they have the lowest price. They constantly undercut "normal" players, driving the price down...

I had a similar experience with my Wizard. In my case, it was a matter of learning specific soloing techniques, and then adapting them to higher levels. In some ways, soloing takes more proficiency/skill than grouping. EQ is not designed or balanced for it. I do LBs with my 70 Wiz now, but...
