Staff of Dreaded Gaze is kinda for optics only, because the effect is useless. It looks cooler than the epic though. Other than that just get as much hp/sta gear as you can get. The only really...

On live server back in the day charisma had zero impact on charm. It was "broken" since day 1 and didn't get fixed until 2004 when I stopped playing.

I used to play EQ from the first week of release until 2004. Then I forced myself to quit, because my real life was gone. This "Evercrack" addiction thing is true, very true. Part of it was that...

Back in the day I had charms break rather early as a low level, then at 50 it felt somewhat more reliable. I thought it had something to do with having CHA 200, but then I found out that this stat...

Best spot ever for levelling up a new "good" character is Misty Thicket imo. Lots of mobs, not much competition. The problem for a High Elf is more like how to get there.

The idea of looking for AFK-friendly classes sounds somewhat weird.

In my opinion there is no exact pre-raid BIS for casters in EQ because of the skill caps. It doesn't matter how you get there. Also EQ is very skill based, so even a weakly geared necro or enchanter...

Never go for strength as a caster. Your basic stats are INT and STA. Since there is an INT cap that you will eventually reach with items anyways, you may think about boosting STA.

Sinadin R.I.P.

Thomas died from a heartattack a few days ago.

His original character was a dark elf wizard on Solusek Ro.
On P99 he played a dark elf enchanter in the guild Europa.

I think there is an explanation for this ongoing solo-madness amongst chanters on P99. They all started this class because it's supposed to be overpowered, but they don't trust their ability to play...

Fear kiting is absolutely ridiculous and you simply don't do it. The only and standard way to kite is reverse kiting or "agro kiting" like they call it here. The hit you take in exp by doing so...

Why soloing as enchanter? Get a group in Guk! That's the reason why you picked this class in the first place.

Forget necro charming. It only works on undead and it is rarely ever useful, especially since Crypt of Decay will never be part of P99.

You want that staff because it is by far the coolest looking staff in the game. The right-click is totally worthless. Once I manage to recover my old screenshots, I will post you some nice ones.

Back in the day I never charmed stuff as a rule of thumb. The only exception was a ghoul wizard in Guk. There is simply no need to do damage as enchanter. People will just love you when they survive...
