What constitutes being considered "twinked" on blue?

[Loadsamoney]

I made about 20-25k plat soloing Paineel guards from 22-51 on my Dwarf Paladin, and dumped most of it into gearing a Human Ranger. Haven't been able to play it for the last year or so because my PC died, and I only recently replaced it, but now I feel like getting back onto my ranger and playing again.

Basically I have 2x Lamentations, a 24% haste belt and a lot of AC/HP boosters, some expensive ones like Silver Chitin Wristbands, but no regen items like fungi or anything like that. Except for the weapons, this is all stuff I can eventually transfer to a Bard, and later to other classes like a Warrior or SK.

Is this enough to be considered "twinked out." Or do you need super-rich items like Fungi to even qualify for that?

I'm sure there are folks who have spent significantly more than 25k on an alt but I can tell you that's about 24,900pp more than I started my ranger with and he was still a blast. Sounds like you're nicely twinked to me!

Im playing with a ranger with this level of twinkage on live TLP this very moment and at 35 am soloing maid/butler (barely) and it's awesome!

I solo'd in Paineel from 22-51 with less. Aside from the times when burnout sets in, leveling from 20-50 in this place means banking roughly 20k plat along the way, so each character I do it with will be funded enough by their 50's to afford most of whatever they need, be it armor gems, clickies, epic pieces, whatever.

Though Paineel seems a bit more crowded than usual these days, so maybe the secrets out regarding what a goldmine this place is for money, especially considering it's close to a major city, is a safe haven for evil characters and one can easily work up the rep to get inside and never have to worry about being KoS.

Paineel guards hasn't been a secret since probably 2010. If I remember correctly it used to be easier to get the key and the exp mod was higher in the early years(?). Back in 2010/2011 there was always at least one person solo'n there on either side of the first portal. It's just not one of the best options for speed leveling or making money. It works for the loners that don't mind leveling slowly and making a little cash along the way. Players can't really say they are there because they 'don't want to level too fast and want to experience classic Everquest' when they stay there for 30 levels haha.

I like making alts and just throwing trash gear on them. That's fun because you still have upgrades to look forward to. I've leveled multiple toons that way to 50+ and can't say I remember anyone even inspecting me or questioning my out of era gear. As it mostly was in classic, I consider pre-gearing a toon at all twinking if it's better than you would have by natural progression. I consider high end twinking super-twinking.

woot just got my guise from the butler maid as a ranger solo on mischife at 35 I feel like this class is the best.

Obviously there are different ‘tiers’ of twinks and everyone will have their own opinion on what defines one. If your character has significantly better gear than what you’d normally be able to have access to at any given level, that would be considered twinked IMO.
