The Grant a Wish Thread

Hey folks, just thought I'd do another little giveaway. The story contests have been overdone, so this time I figured why not make things a little more direct. This one will be for new players only please, honor system!

If you are relatively new to the server and want something specific to help get you started on your adventuring career (e.g ghoulbane and shield of the stalwart seas for an eru pally, set of crafted armor for a warrior, weight reduction bags for a monk, jboots for a caster etc, try to keep the value around 1 to 5k plat) then just post here with the following:

- A short introduction of yourself, how you found the server, and what you hope to achieve during your time here

- What race and class your character is/will be

- What item(s) you want, and what you will do with them (smite undead, terrorize halflings, crusade across Norrath, whatever [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.])

Feel free to get creative with your post; pics are always fun to see, as is a well themed presentation (always love hearing ogre and troll players get into character :P)

For now there won't be a time limit on this thread, i'll bump it now and then, so if you're new to the server and come across it, feel free to make a post. From time to time i'll just pop in, pick a random post and tell you in this thread that you've been chosen to get the items you asked for.

Cheers

I imagine I found this server the same way as everyone else: googling classic everquest or something similar. My character will be a L59 Iksar Warrior. I need a Blade of Strategy/Tactics in order to stand in front of monsters with very large animations and not die while keeping them distracted with my glowing Jedi swords. I hear it costs about 300k for the red scales/green scales/Hand of the Maestro MQ.

Ok I'll start.

I'm a long time MMO vet.. Started EQ in 1999 on Prexus, and eventually made Mithaniel Marr my home. I found the server on the internet somewhere, I think eqclassic forums or something similar. My goal is to get to max level and raid.. That simple really.

I currently have a level 10 Human Monk, Raykwan, who has been held up in the Qeynos area. I've been spending a lot of time in BlackBurrow farming gnoll fangs. I plan on making the run to Freeport within the next few levels.

As far as items, the only thing I find myself REALLY wanting at this point is a decent weapon. I am dual wielding Splintering Clubs and I cry myself to sleep at night because of this... There's about 100 items I could come up with, but really, I just need to find a decent weapon and I'd be fine.

I'll post a screenshot of my uber Splintering Clubs when I get home. Whether or not I get anything out of this, it's nice to be on this server. Thanks to the random peeps out there who have tossed me buffs along the way.

Granted! First poster, so I figured might as well start with you.

I'm fairly clueless as to Monk weapons, pick something(s), ideally within the 1 - 5k range, and i'll grab it for you.

Good Day Hagglebaron,

I found this server while randomly looking at screen shots of Old Scool EQ encounters on night when I was bored of WoW

I am an old school Sullon Zek player who played an Enchanter from server release up until OOW. I always envied my friend who played a Ranger and was able to Bow down anything in his path. I started up a ranger myself and had a blast tracking down and bow kiting anything and everything I wanted to. I understand that Rangers have their challenges here and have a bad name but I would love to re live some of the fun I had running around zones, tracking down mobs from far across the zone for my friends and hitting them right between the eyes with my arrows.

I am asking for a Rain Caller to assist me in my quest.

Thanks!

I was thinking perhaps a Wu's Quivering Staff. I read on these forums it sells for about 500pp?

Just as a heads up, the wiki has a graph on all items that shows the average price and the most recent sale.
