Um Ultima Online had the land buying thing and the "tradesman" going before DAoC or EQ2. So I'd say that EQ2 is a bad combonation of the gayest parts of UO and DAoC. Yay! Go Verant with another great idea! |

Ahh, that's half the fun of playing Wood Elves. Learning to watch your feet so you don't end up a pile of Wood Elf goo at underneath the town!

Errr, sounds like you are getting a fresh start in more ways than one. Do you play a rogue on EQ by any chance?!? |

I never cease to be amazed at the number of people who claim to have quit EQ but apparently have nothing better to do than come back to various EQ based websites to either piss and moan about what a terrible game it is (or became, yahda yahda yahda . . . ) or how much "truly better" the ne |

It might be more enjoyable for you if twinking didnt exist only because your jealousy is detracting from the gaming experience. Dont worry about what other people have and get down to killing.

This one looks crappy, you lose items instead of exp when you die... The monsters look like people from Myst (claylike and annoying) So there is no way im gwtting it. |

Personally I am against twinking but feel that this argument is pointless. The people that support it are not going to change their minds and those of us against most likely will not change ours. Even though I am against it I understand why people do it and have to admit there is a need for twinking |

The excessively high system requirements aside (although in a year and a half, this might actually be the standard), this looks like it might be interesting, although I can see several major problems with the still sketchy concepts:

Me and 3 other people lvls 47-54 camped LHM last night and spawn time on all of the mobs were 29 minutes. reall easy to keep it clear. PH or the mob themselves 1 every 9 minutes keeps things well balanced for mana reproduction. |

As a medium race with IGS, I wouldn't go for these unless all the fatty/shorty plates didn't want em. Better served and used on them imo. |

Great caster or hybrid ring. 75 mana is a lot for one item. Too bad no saves. |

This is the ring that acts as the key to the Emperor/Blood area in Ssraeszha Temple. It is quested for, you need four items from the zone in order to make it: an Idol, a Ring, an Insignia, and a Bag to combine them all in. It's not something you're getting without being in a big guild.

Talk to Weapons Master Wygan in Shar`Vahl and he'll tell you which of his assistants to give this to.
The upgraded item has the same stats, but add:

Permanent enduring breath too! Not sure if anyone is going to be going on Kedge raids after getting this, but it should make things a bit easier than using those heavy gnome breathing masks or relying on casters/bards. |

Aye, any of the classes can use it, but only druids can ever gain skill in 1hs (unless it was an oversight by Verant and will eventually be corrected to 1hb, but I doubt that...after all, it IS called a Small TWISTED Stave). |

People bash Verant alot about the mods made to a game with an engine 3 years old. The scripted events like Hollowshade War, Ring of Fire, and now the Grimling Raid are pretty ambitous. Alot of people seem to hate luclin but i have found it to be a new home. |

This is another of those nifty Luclin items. Not sure how hard it is to get since I haven't done the Grimling Raid yet but I am sure its prob on par with the dang Shissar earring from The Grey. I have been slaughtering snakes and golems in that zone for months and I haven't seen one earring drop yet |
