Greetings P99ers,
Playing EQ again after quitting more than 15 years ago! I almost came back when this project started many years ago but RL stuff came up.
Leveling is hard. The nostalgia is real. Just as I remembered!
I have to say my first impression is pretty good. Logged in on my level 1 bard in Freeport and the first thing I see is an epic-wielding paladin in skellie form killing militia guards. Shoutout to Allenon! Not only was he a nice fellow, but he also had the kindness to give me a couple of loots from the corpses. I was then able to afford my first few songs, some backpacks, and the basic instruments. In a game like EQ, it helps a lot go through the annoying first levels!
Then as I was killing my first moss snakes and orc pawns, another nice player buffed me up without me asking as he ran by me.
So, this was a pretty good first short session. If anyone out there wants to group up for some leveling, feel free to message me on my level 2 bard Playit! Hoping to make the low levels grind less painful
