• Hail, we're RedGuides. We want you to play six (yes, 6!) EverQuest characters at once. We have scripts and a friendly community to help, please join our playstyle and say hello! 👋
  • We've added LLM sections to our Terms & Rules and Resource Rules, for everyone's sanity & in-game safety.
    Read more
    a. Do not replace your voice with an LLM. This goes for your posts and your scripts. Drafting and editing with a tool is fine, but don't take you out of what you share.
    b. Do not replace your EQ character's voice with an LLM. We don't want scripts that speak over /ooc, /shout or other public channels. This has been an unwritten rule that's kept casino scripts off the site for decades, but we're now compelled to make it clear: keep automated communication private.

    Why Does RG Review Scripts?
    Nearly every LLM-written Lua script we see is making your character do impossible things, and rarely in a way that's beneficial to you. We've seen heavy server hammering, /target over impossible distances when /nav spawn would passively accomplish the same thing, a spawn search that fires 20+ times per second, and other pointless actions that are likely annoying GMs.

    You are welcome to use LLMs as a tool to structure, draft, and edit your work, but please read critically before hitting /lua run

Amazing work. Load in a brand new character, load the macro, and watch it go to work. Takes about 90 minutes it seems to go from start to finish.
Very well done , exceeded my expectations ! Thank you much
Still loving... it goes way farther now, than I expected!
Awesome work.
This is awesome, cant believe how long it runs!
Just freaking perfect for us, that can not stand the first moments of slow progression.
I love using this macro for all the times I had to repeat the tutorial. There are a few flaws with it though where you will need to make adjustments to get to the next part. For me it was mainly related to the NAV location. It would not find the NAV location on the map and keep spamming it in chat. Normally I had to move character to that spot and try macro again to get it to work.
I love this Macro ! , running now 4 toons in the same time ,
btw ! The Vermin Nests I saw your using attack to clear them , /OPEN works too and its faster it also work on the spider cocoon , (not that important ) and does not take anything off from you great work ! Thank you !
Solid, clearly a lot of work was put into this massive macro.

Great macro! After adding the updated navmesh everything worked great. I would just suggest running 1 character at a time. I did 6 at once and they bottlenecked each other completing the quests without being in a group. Great work!
Super fun to run through the tutorial with this
I like this, and I like this - a lot.

Accept it's old and has a status of 'unmaintained'.
June2020 and I'm new to RG, VV, MQ2.

In the main it works.

I'd started it after that initial quest to get the key from the jailor and hand it over and stand in gloomingdeep with all the quest npc's around.
It can run through and do the vast majority of quests the zone offers and level from 1 to ~9/10.

A minor issue with the mercenary hire task. On F2P it tries to select 'IV' where the choice is Apprentice I or II. Without hiring, it will go grind on 'kobold infiltrator' mob repeat killing as it can't get the quest update flag.

Knowing this you can stop the macro. Hire the merc you want, healer or tank and then restart the macro. It has the logic to understand the progress and will resume correctly.

There were a small number of navigation fumbles. The character runs and then stops in a tunnel or path. The MQ2 window gets rapid spam of nav error, of the ilk 'unable to find path to' and mentions loc. In some case I stopped macro, moved a bit and restarted. Other times I moved manual and it got going again itself.

Lastly, survivability. I'm referencing some of the tougher challenges in the tutorial. e.g. Spider Tamer Gugan, Queen Gloomfang, Slavemaster Ruga and Overlord Gnikan. The key mix of elements here is your class, your merc and your level. Some of those targets are in quests marked 'group' which makes it obvious why a solo character can struggle. An extra level or two and the odds are more on your side of winning. Slavemaster Ruga is funny. He is at the back with two buddies and a few other spawns ahead of him. The character goes straight for him and can aggro several dark blue mobs and try to deal with them all.


There is a lot of work gone into this macro.
It's a great concept and I'm impressed.
