Returning to EQ

Hail!

After ~20 years away from EQ I've decided to (maybe) return to the virtual world that gave me so much joy years ago.

I was previously on Quellious where I played daily for a long time in the late '90's to early 00's. I actually had set up my P99 account and played around a bit on Blue a few years ago, but decided to start anew on Green. So yesterday I spun up a HE Wizard named Goyan (who is now lvl 2 and in Freeport). Once I get a bind I'll be roaming around, so if you happen to see me, drop a hey!

I miss the community of EQ. I'll most likely be on a bit mid-week and some on the weekends.

Anyway, thanks!

Welcome back! I know it is a long shot, but do you have any old log files from back in the day? I parse them for data to help recreate classic EQ

Re-roll Ogre before its too late! Frontal Stun Immunity is the best racial ability in the game, especially for warrior.

I'm planning to roll a tank, but I'm torn. Is the Ogre's Frontal Stun Immunity so vital that it outweighs the Troll's passive Regeneration for a Warrior? Are there any other race/class combinations on P99 that have a 'must-pick' racial advantage like the Ogre?

I definitely think fashion is the most important decision for any class. If you don't like how your character looks then no passive can make up for that.

The Ogre's FSI outweighs Troll's regen only at level 60 when tanking raid mobs. But non-Ogre warriors have tanked every raid target in the game, FSI isn't a requirement. And from 1-60 the regen is far better, especially in the earlier levels or when soloing.
