All this MQ flying around

Is it still possible to farm anything yourself anymore or are all the MQ's permacamped?

You can farm Fire Beetle Eyes in East Freeport still

This "should play on red" stuff used to annoy me. But I genuinely laughed at this.

I don't think in this day and age EQ is fair at all to the average player on here. How many people that have real jobs and families on here really have the time to camp the top tier stuff for hours straight, and unless you do, you never have the plat to even buy high dollar MQ's. So you are screwed either way. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I know it has sort of been that way from the start. But when you were a teenager in your moms basement, sneaking on the game in the middle of the night, people had time lol. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

So have no clue how old OP is but I would not hold your breath getting top tier stuff unless you are willing to get divorced or lose your job, which means you HAVE to move back into your moms basement lol. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I disagree to some extent. the fact that you can buy a MQ for an epic means that people that work and dont have time to camp stuff are able to get their epics one day.

anyone can log on for a short amount of time and slowly make platinum, casuals cannot sock rage fire and get a group fiends together for that fight.

I don't know I'd go that far but I get you.

I'm 25 with a career and a casual player. I've been here since August 2013 and my only character is a 51 shaman. I'm at the point in my epic where I have to kill the blackdire. I do not have the time (nor the the desire to, should I have the time) to sit around for 3-4 hours camping the Advisor spawn and getting together a group capable of killing black dire. But hey, that's EQ.

I recently started on red and got a chanter to 22 (thanks to a kind twinked rogue and his druid friend) PLing me. I think he is going to be my new main.

You can repeat the envy/woe and first stage of the quest like 40 times or so to get max faction if you have a porter friend. Yeah it takes a lot of time but that is how i got it thanks to tmo camping further shaman MQ for their alt or MQ

I find this Norrath ecosystem analysis very interesting.
