Have you ever had a panic attack in EQ?

Man, that's gotta say something about how addictive EQ is. Your apartment burns down, and you're sweating the EQ character haha

I didn't have much beyond my computer, an old TV, and my clothes. I found out the fire was started in the crackhouse below me, so I really don't care if any of them died tbh. My apt and the one where the fire started were the only two that really burned down.

I remember doing my rogue epic, had just got a bunch of people together to kill the guy in Steamfont. I was standing there hailing the guy to be killed getting, I handed him my items and clicked give. Sadly I didn't check the name belonging to the trade window, and ended up handing in the piece to Jabober, some dipshit mage's air pet that I couldn't see. I lost it pretty good at that point, knowing I was going to have to take another solo trip into Hate and sneak up to the second floor to get the piece I need.

Good thing Rogue Epic was the easiest to get.

Panic attack? Not really. A couple broken mouses from post-death temper tantrums? Absolutely.

Does it count if, at about 2am with all the lights off, during an intense raid in Kael, a giant tree roach runs across your hands and keyboard and vanishes into the shadows? Thats about the closest i've ever come to wetting myself.

Roflmaoooo, def. just spit my dr pepper out all over my keyboard =(.

Oh, and 2 weeks ago handing a Manastone over to a friend so he can transfer it to my other character, then when logging on my other character my friend says "What? You never gave it to me dude, I been waiting this whole time"........FML.

My Wizard was in Lava and passed a Mage standing around. All of a sudden the Mage's pet attacks me. I am totally shocked and run like a baby. The pet kills me. I have absolutely no idea where my corpse is. I am shaking. I am confused. I am shocked. What the hell happened? The laws of my universe flip flopped. I am on a blue server, this is not right.

I petition a GM (they were around then). The GM has no idea how it could happen but helped me find my body. I never found out what happened and was scared to play for ages.

if this was on live back in the day, when a mage dc'd while pet was fighting a mob, if your pet won the fight, he'd go rogue, retaining his level but being KoS to anything in sight.

rare, but i've had it happen back then, dc, log in, beat to death by my own root happy earth pet.

panic attack? no.

heart attack? close.

^ you're positive it was a player Mage? Because there was a camp of NPCs in Lava (some of them vendors IIRC) and one of them was a potentially-aggro caster.
