Tallon Zek

[Wizerud]

I played on Tallon Zek from when I started in June 2000 till Dec 2001. Spent most of my time in a rl friend guild, a little time in KotWR and then my rl friends all moved to Luclin when SoL came out so my red-land experience was over.

So many names in this thread I thought I'd never hear again. So many memories of those times...selling in GFay and doing shady deals with darkies at the wizard spire, constant /w in Thurgadin, sniping on noob darks in EC at the Nek zoneline, constant dramas in Oasis, LOIO, OT...

All of us created erudites for some reason and right after we started playing I remember one guy, a high elf wizard who used to roleplay being an erudite-hater. I guess he coulda been racist irl too but who knows. It seemed like we'd run into the guy every night and he'd always kill at least one of us (gearless noobs that we were). And of course he was always around 6 levels higher than us. I cannot for the life of me remember his name tho [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Nah, probably just a lowbie killing char that roleplayed. Live servers had such high pops that there were non-lvling alts/twinks in every newbie area.

Played barb rogue Rzor, around start kunark-end velious, eventually traded account with trusken(necromancer) and $'ed out.. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I believe Lasher, the wise old halfling he is, played TZ and has voted against teams.

Tssunami was awesome as a monk but I have to say that he was by far the nastiest rogue I have ever seen on Tzuten. His jousting timing was above and beyond anything I've seen and I was a pretty good jouster on Skippie. He molested Wyndolyn from afterlife in a duel during the test of tactics. That is an old school name =)

Teams had their fun and it was lolsy in mass pvp because you would need at least 2 main assists running at once.

Wonder how well a FFA server that had like +-8 and nothing else would of done on live. Your choices were soft coded teams, FFA with item loot, or Hard coded teams

Woulda been many lvl 41s getting one shot by ice comets, even with the damage nerf.

[Lasher]

Tz was like that. i remember getting one shotted by icecomet once but not every wizard had it.

Splurt was the spell that fucked me the most until i learned to dispell it. For what ever reason i never feared a mage i think the only mage that caused me grief was jerrin.

RB rogs catching sitting casters was always funny. One thing vztz never got right was sit down dmg.

[Wawaka]

Double backstabbing sitting casters in will forever be a glorious memory [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

cant remember if it was double 900's with RB, or 1200..(on a caster) You remember?

*edit*

Also dmg is increased on people sitting down on p99.

Ratizzity is good. He did the whole WoW thing and found this emu stuff to be shitty. He's never tried it, but y'now. Whatevs!

I never got to fight Tzuten when I actually learned how to PvP. I remember the dude who bought him in Fungus Grove and he was terrible.

But when I was like 52 at the scarabs in Seb, I remember Tzuten sneaking down and picking off our chars one by one. He was fast and had good timing. Well played rogue, for sure. He had to run off at one point after killing the cleric and 2 casters because my brother Harm Touched, but he was a beast. We just left after he killed everyone but us =p.

Gylen was the ridiculous one for me. I think I was still around lvl 56 or 7 in Chardok, after PDM took over Sebilis from the darkies. He came into Chardok with the White Resistance Stone, his new fungi robe, and a primal bat. 14 vs. 1. All dead. With his stats maxed like that and his resists so high, he got down to like 86% after mending. No one could hit him =p.

I always enjoyed being the underdog though. Fightin' for the little guys. I probably should've joined PDM at one point. I was asked to all the time. That fuckin' halfing Ranger officer in PoP was like, "HEY, ARE YOU HAPPY OVER THERE? Dude, just come here. You only have to play 19 hours a day and you get to loot all the trash no one wants...sometimes!" Was it Ralf? Rolf? Relf? Rulf? I think I helped that dude out before he went PDM or something and we became pals.

Emperor was at 1%. Wildd was up there breaking charms and trying to kill ENC's doing the CC portion of the encounter. I don't think it worked. He might've done the insta gate potion when he got low or whatever. I think it was Celestine who was down by Cursed, in waiting. I don't recall it being Fuzyfoot. That battle was epic. 4 years on 56k, yo. Good times with 120 people in Ssra!

Does anyone still keep in contact with the Skoaldiak's? I really wish I could get in touch with Skuzz :/. Guy was a fuckin' riot.
