The Begging skill

[Crawdad]

If you luck out you can get 1gp/1pp. I remember bored Mages/Necros skilling up on pets while medding up, and some warriors using it for aggro... but really, its just one of those quirky, "Hey wouldn't it be cool if you could do X" things in EQ that they put in but never really added to the game.

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

You can also generate minuscule hate on a non-kos mob to kite it with the intention of having another class (rogue, ranger, monk, non hate casting classes) to throw something at it and steal aggro. (this is of course assuming they don't have a Bracer of the Hidden and the mob is not worth using a Soulfire).

You can use it to make canoes question your audacity to beg from them.
Think it goes through Z axis also, aggroed sebilite guardian from below with it at the locked door once.

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.]

On live I used to beg from my pet and while I heard tell of players who garnered platinum pieces and fine steel from theirs, mine was never so generous [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

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.
