Dinged 51 Enchanter in "The Hole". Set AA exp to 10% and set off to explore other zones.

The Broodlands is a neat zone. The mobs have a huge amount of Hit points but are pansies when it comes to hitting back. Just took a lot longer for Pet and DOT's to kill. Nukes are bad because they only do about 6% damage at this point.

Tried collecting silks for the Lavaspinner quest. That zone is a bit too high for me at the moment. Plus I never found any spiders in the Lavaspinner Lair zone. I didn't go too far in though.

Went back to the Hole and solo'ed down to the huge golems that summon. Proceeded in killing a few and then got cocky. Took on a few adds and was running like hell to the zone line. Pet bit the dust and I got summoned back ( I was swimming to the line - so close!!!!!). I bit the dust. Everquest always awards my cockiness with a dead corpse. Shame on me.

Did loot some nice Loam items which were minor upgrades to my crappy gear.

didn't do much, just logged in in order to activate LoD mostly.

did two EC LDoN's yesterday (for Ward of Calrena)

group: 58 Cleric, two Necros, 54 and 55 iirc, 52 SK, 55 wiz - I)

first adv went ok, so we said, do another one...

*Cleric did well
*Necro 1 did well (until he LD'ed, cause he probably knew what would happen)
*Frog SK - lvl 52:
- first I made a funny remark, that he got his frog to 52 so fast... well, I should've thought twice...
- took him a while, to understand that a cleric can pacy, and that he should listen to the cleric announcing which mob to pull.
- AC was not bad (950), although my 50 pallie has more AC...
- his resist's must've been very low, laborer (caster type mob) were able to drop 40% with one nuke often - he died three times
- he sticked with us though, despite dying, until he left 4 mins before end, with 2 collects remaining. (cleric told him bluntly that his AC was too low and his resists were crap).
*Necro 2 - lvl 54 ish:
- didn't know that darkness=snaring
- afk'ed 4 times during adv. (walking dog, eating lunch)
- tried to FD before he went afk, but "has fallen to the ground", and subsequently died when we had an overpull.
- left group with 8 mins to go and 3 collects to be done

the two remaining (Cleric and I) almost made it. he meleeing, I nuking (was oom; as dry as, well, ye know), but missed it by 10 secs. bummer :-(

learnings? pickup groups are the most challenging thingies in EQ Smiley: tongue

Fri: Ding 64!

Sat: Not much really

Sun: Attempted the Naggy monster mission with a pickup group....not good. Attempted a Chardok crawl for my epic. Turns out 10 Aude Sapere members can't handle 55 Sarnaks at a time..heh, shows what I know. We'll be going back very soon for revenge.

well, since i'm home sick with mono, i've had nothing but time on my hands, so lots of eq this weekend, even if little motivation:
fri: dinged 33 with frog necro - only time this weekend i felt like grouping/being at all social. after that, began rereading 1st volume of Lovecraft's collected works.

sat: logged 46 mage on to make rat ear pie for druid's paw of opalla. became obsessed with making an evil frog cleric, so i rolled one on povar(my test server of choice) to see if i'd like it. discovered that the leatherfoot raiders needed for the initiate symbol of innoruuk are no longer in nek. bummer. finished 1st volume of Lovecraft's stories.

sun: decided to roll a frog cleric on stromm (my home server). leveled him to five, did spell haste 2 mask quest, priests of innoruuk faction quest in neriak, and red wine quest as well. logged mage on in evening to camp iksar berserker club for new cleric. jester was a total ******* and wouldn't give it up. oh well. began rereading volume 2 of Lovecraft's collected writings.

No robe yet...but the pants tribute for 42pp...

weekend wes filled with other then EQ stuffs so i wo nt bore you with that.

EQ stuffs is as follows. Dinged 50 and made it halfway to 51, duoing with a guildy in the hole. had to log out after we ate it but thats ok. befor i log in next, hit this site to figure out where all of my 51-60 spells are sold. log in and begin the hour long run around zones buying my spells. wasted >400pp because of this new spell stacking shit. i didnt see that it asked me for the number of scrolls so i just automaticly hit buy and poof... 20 spells @ 25pp a shot... and the damn spells only sold back for 3pp... damnit... that really sucked. logged off the comp so my step daughter could play around on the kiddie version of EQ called Runescape. she loves it. and when she gets old enough and i can convince her mom that its good, ill get her an EQ account.

Friday: Cleared the south side of Tacvi. Nice loots for lots of melee!!! Was gonna do a DoD exp group, when I fell asleep at the desk. Sorry guys.

Saturday: No EQ3, watched some Food TV, and went to a friends house that night to play M:TG. Lost first free for all between 7 poeple. Won next 2 team games against a bunch of horde decks. That felt good.

Sunday: Tried to play some, explored in DoD doing the cartographer quests. POwer and Cable modem kept sporadically going out. Got a DoD exp group that I had to bail on cuz of the flaky cable connection. Sorry again guys. Popped in Alexander DVD till I went to bed.

Got 24 aa's on DoD missions.

Thats Saturday, and Sunday.
Each day spent about 4-5 hours played.

no kidding btw. check out Undershore missions, "Freemind Cipher"
second mission down, forget whats it's called.
Did way to many to keep track.
xp is tremendous, 4 people in the group dinged twice that day.
unless your going from 59-61, you wont see that anytime soon.
