Hello from a newbie
 

Greetings!

I played EQ way back in the early 00s, never got to end game but enjoyed myself nonetheless. Excited to try Project 1999 for some of that old school rpg nostalgia. Playing a half elf bard (lvl 1) named Gwron based out of Freeport to try something new (the class, I mean ;)

I am a married man with family so my time is limited but I'll be slipping in time for EQ on what I hope will be a somewhat regular basis.

Looking forward to getting to know the community!

Gwron the Bard

Welcome! As a bard you do need to make some small macros in order to not get insane. Usually you would make them as follows:
/stopsong
/cast #n

where #n is a number between 1 and 8. You make all 8 of them and then enjoy switching songs a lot faster. Bard is incredibly versatile and powerfull but very demanding at the same time. Have fun!
