If you luck out you can get 1gp/1pp. I remember bored Mages/Necros skilling up on pets while medding up...

My necro used to beg from his pet for a long time and never got a single skillup from it.

zanderr do you have a soulfire? i don't see it on your magelo

Nah. I don't raid seriously enough to get one and would never want to blow the charges or do the quest again. I happen to like the Freeport Militia. Reaper I can recharge, and I rarely see myself feeling justified enough to click this. 1K is still a fair amount of plat to me. Anything 500p or above is discretionary to me.

I never heard of any actual use for it other than rp/entertainment

it got used for part of the flagging quest in gates of discord, thats the only time i remember having to use it.

Skillups only come from human targets on P99 iirc. Ironically you can skillup on beggars if you wanted to [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I thank you all for your input & shared knowledge once again. It's nice to know it had some use at some point even though it being implemented day1 and could have had so much more. Think of all the rogue quests or other contacts this could open up for underground dealings or just behind the scenes dealings in other ways.

NPC says 'Hey why u begging from me? Didn't I ever tell you about the [last guy] that begged from me?

Player somebody says 'wtf plx last guy d00d

NPC says ' THIS is what happened to the last guy'

You have been hit for 32000dmg
You have been slain from begging .. why?

Yea begging was used in the Breakdown in Communicstions quest (the chain augment quest, probably the best aspect of GoD). Wasn't used for any flagging that I remember though.

Was used for a few random tasks here and there in later EQ but it never really saw a true purpose.

You could use begging to single pull efreeti lord djarn out of his room in combination with the sneak skill.
