After three or four weeks in to Redguides I'm having a lot of fun. Honestly, I am not sure I would have stuck with eq after returning from a long break without this. So, it was so many years ago I played there is a lot I don't remember about the game, in general. And, having the ability to level more toons faster, a lot I need to learn about the classes I never played.
I've been using mule assist. The guide has been helpful and I'm able to do most of the basic things by loading spells, AA, etc. into the UI and tweaking some of the raw settings. My main setup atm is a 113 warrior with a healing merc, a 115 ranger and then I've got some other toons I'm filling out the group with (112 wiz or 111 dru on one account), 110 necro, 110 rogue, 108 cleric and 108 bard.
I'm most interested in setting up more reliable mez with the bard right now. I know a lot of figuring this out is trial and error, but if anybody has an ini that works well for that, or settings I should tune, let me know. It works some of the time now, but I find it's firing off mez pretty late and using it sometimes when there is only one mob. So, mez is working sometimes, but it's not really reliable at all.
Other stuff I'm interested in: Is is possible to run a raid using the nav controls like follow me, come to me, chase, etc.? It would be fun to do some low level raids, but I am wondering if the same sort of mule and nav assist tools can apply?
Anyway, just fishing for some info in those areas. And, I wanted to post - for anybody that is new - it can be frustrating at first, but after sticking with it, I'm glad I did. If you can get past some bumps and figure out what to do, it has been well worth it, to me. This has been superior to the kind of true boxing I had done in the past.
My main goal going forward is to be able to set up a power leveling group I can use now and then to help fund a few accounts to keep exploring the game.
