my partner made an eruite wizzy on live (she only liked the erudite female graphics)

first time she stepped into tox some random guy came up and gave her 100pp...

The newb you buff now could be the alt of a cleric that 90% rezzes you later.

Always pay it forward. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Good point. I got an oracle robe from someone for my first toon.

One of the things I loved about EQ was the ability to give random buffs and get them instead of a lot of the other MMOs where you must be grouped to get them and once ungrouped they are gone...

Amen to that...

LOL ... so did I!

I have vowed I will not sell it. If I ever get better, I will give it to some other newbie...

Of course if I ever get better, then the plat that it could sell for would be pretty much meaningless anyway.

I felt the same way when I started. It's nice for me because I'm not one of those people who will stand around in the EC tunnel asking for buffs, I've never asked anybody for plat. I hate to even ask for SOW so most of the time I just travel slow. I frequently just eat exp loss because I don't like bothering people for a res.

But here on P99, people still hooked me up even though I didn't ask. Folks gave me buffs just because they wanted to. Clerics have sent me tells when my corpse is close by, "Do you want a res?" People have given me items because they have extra stuff and they figured I could use it. The generosity of P99's community is outstanding.

surest way to get into my pockets is to be over level 10 with your starting tunic/horrendous gear.

There's a difference between making someone's day with 500pp (spells/bags/food forever) and depriving them of hardship as if you're PLing them or something.

edit: also warriors need to be twinked, and I'm always happy to dish my $$ out to a warrior considering that they MUST /random win or buy 2x Ykeshas.

Your enc doesn't need an SMR, your SK doesn't need a Mithr 2 Hander etc, warriors however need some love.

I really don't think I've ever passed anyone below 30 when I have random equipment in my bags and not given it to them lol

Unrest has been getting pimped out the past few days.

I agree, folks help the lowbies out a lot. I really appreciate that about this server too. I started a cleric in Qeynos just the other day and was level 5 in 45 minutes because the nice druid throwing high level buffs on me.

At level 8 Fearghus was given 2k plat for helping transfer cash for someone in EC. I was a perfect stranger. After a short conversation, they handed me the money, asked that I don't steal it and to give it to their alt.

Yea, the folks here can be pretty damned friendly.

Though not all of them...

Thats insane, guess I have just been in the wrong places. I am near level 40 and don't have close to 2k, congrats on the good luck.

And to you Dantes, I am the same way. I still haven't gotten a rez on p1999 and always feel bad for bothering people so I don't ask for them.

I especially don't ask for help now that I'm getting higher level and people expect large donations for everything. People assume you have a lot of plat and I'm looting everything off my mobs just to keep my research skill maxed.

Thats one drawback of being a necro, when you aren't in populated areas you aren't around the nice people helping out so you usually have to pay for any help/buffs you want. All the benefits come at 50.
