Dorvic, Drunken Dwarf

[Ivar]

So, I decided to make a thread documenting some of my travels with my character as I level. Something I can look back on. I didn't start saving shots at level 1, there's nothing really fun or memorable about killing your first bit of mobs to see if you're really into it or not. However, I set a goal for myself killing giant rats in the Kaladim mines for the metal rat named quest items, I farmed up a bag and a half of the cards to turn in.

I got the tip from another Dwarf Rogue I met in game. He farmed like 3-4 full bags of these "Knight Cards" to turn in, and gave me some of the extras he got before giving me the camp.
Thanks for the tip and pieces of ring-mail, Ahginor.

Here's the named, you could sometimes get 3-4 spawns an hour if lucky.

Had to catch a boat to Ocean of Tears to turn the quest items into a dwarven blacksmith.

Got drunk and started leveling swimming, sneak, and hide while awaiting the boat to dock.

Staggered around the sea port looking for more booze, and was attacked by this piece of shit. The time to capture the sea creature's face nearly killed me, I lead him to the guards.

While I was waiting another soul joined the wait, so I drank a few beers to be social.

I made it to the blacksmith, and turned in the cards for the look. Got a decent upgrade, and some Bronze pieces for a lucky cleric/war mayhaps.

Off to Crushbone to fill my bags up. I'll post more when I have more to tell.

I approve of this thread:)

I went from 10-14 in Crushbone tonight, still no Dragoon Dirk yet.

Picked up some brandy, I swear it makes you run faster.

I found a necro at the wood elf city killing guards, so I picked up the shields to give to party members.

He also gave me some FS weps to give to party members. Always think ahead for maximum exp. I ended up giving away all the rat cloaks to friends too.

I gave away all the bronze to a lucky paladin, I logged tonight full of belts and shoulder pads. Tomorrow I contemplate selling them or turning in for exp.

Hello friends.

As we left off, we had ventured into Crushbone to farm up some belts/pads with the hopes of getting a new dagger. Well, we've come a long way since then, and I'm sorry I haven't kept you guys updated. Ol' dad has been involved in a python course for the past month, but old Dorivc doesn't mess around - he remembered to take screenshots.


The journey continues.. we head for Guk


In a fury of dwarf piss and drunken stupor - I killed those ogres where they stood. That be my uncle. T'was a good dwarf.

Somewhere along the way, we decided to sneak into Cazic Thule for the hell of it, and it turned out we met a lizardman named Reptox. He was slaying beasts, and so we stayed a while and listened to his story. He rewarded us with rogue treasures! He was streaming.

Aye, Dorvic was starting to feel like a rogue now. So, we headed to Guk with our new gear and found a group near the entrance of Lower Guk, we gained a few levels without taking screenshots.. In addition to that blunder, I foolishly tried to sneak into Lower Guk to collect a rotting Mask of Deception. Dorvic died. I let his corpse rot, until a GM restored it 2-3 days ago :D


Anyway, we decided to visit Unrest since it is Spooky month. Dorvic remembers a time back in live when giant skeletons used to spawn and roam the starter areas during Spooky month.

We had a good time in Unrest, aside from all the trains, but sometimes people actually call out and we all make it, and sometimes we don't and remember we forgot to get a bind, but we got to see a few named we had long forgot about..

Forgive me, I must have been in a hurry. I missed a few, cool, screenshots while I was here. Really cool place to be drunk in-game, though. I felt bad for killing a scared ancestor. I really should take up brewing in-game. I had a thought of having a party at Kelethin, free drinks for all the lowbies. Hehe.

I'll post more tomorrow night! We're currently level 22. I'll post a gear update as well!


Edit: First picture was supposed to be second. Sorry! I won't go so long without posting again. That way I won't get my story backwards!
Edit2: For clarification, Reptox actually kept farming in Cazic Thule after giving me the gear in photo 2, and managed to get me a Ravenscale Chestguard from one of the named there.

Yes sir! Thanks for stopping by!

Another Friday update!

Just a quick summary, I left off at level 22, and I just hit level 30 an hour ago. Here are some screenshots from my last bit of adventure!


Basement in Unrest. Some of these people I've been keeping up with to this point, and its pretty cool to see the same faces from time to time!

Headed up to Fireplace, one of my favorite spots to get experience at that level. Met some legit people, and had some luck with drops! I really dig undead areas.

Left Unrest with some decent loot! Being a Dwarf has many uses outside being a drunken fool.

I traveled to Mistmoore, and bounced back between Unrest and MM until I was high enough level to venture into HHK basement. It always helps to create more content when I get appreciation from the community.

I tried to solo this abomination, but I ended running out of the zone. I still haven't mastered the "ghost step backstab" yet.

I finally made it to HHK basement, made some friends and enemies here, but a Dwarf can let go of some grudges after a few bottles.

Cool Gnome Warrior that came out to help tank for us today!

Ding 30, first hell level.. of many to come. This group was great. I had a good time with them. Everyone was respectful, and everyone shared classic stories. I really liked Inamerata, a kind woman that was really great at enchanting! She's a old EQ vet, and I consider her to be an elder. I hope to meet some more people that played during old school EQ days, I'm 28 years old, so when I find older MMORPG-fanatics that have blamed the old classics - I'm all ears!

A spooky special is coming up SOON! 30+ screenshots from last night that I'll add all at once. I may add some fun narration.

[bigjeff100]

That's very flattering. I hope you do start your alt back up, and maybe then we will come across each other down the road :)

Ivar, this Dorvic thread is awesome! Hahah great stuff!

[Mattius]

nice rogue good sir. i enjoyed the snapshots of the adventure in norrath.

[Ivar]

Tiny update here. I decided to see if I could get my hands on a Mask of Deception to reward myself for hitting 30. I /who Guk and asked around if anyone was camping Assassin. Turns out there was, and he had just got his rogue alt one previously today.

Anyway, I didn't have to wait long, and he helped me plan out my character progression as well. Big shout out to Gonzinator its cool people like him that the Everquest vibe true.
