How to play a dwarf rogue on p99 blue server. A tribute to EBK BLUUHD part 3

Today is the day you become a true rogue. Congratulations.

Put as many points into Pick Pocket as possible.

While still in Rivervale, buy a Round Shield. Any manner of shield will suffice. Buy the cheapest shield available, as long as a DWF ROG can wear it.

Equip your shield.

If you are careful and follow this guide, you will now be able to go from level 7 to level 13 without ever having to join a party or kill a mob.

And you will become rich.

Buy sixty alcoholic beverages. At this point, I trust that you have the skill and wherewithal to choose the drink which best suits your dwarf rogue’s needs. Alcohol is the fuel that will drive you onward. When you are out of alcohol, your entire body screams as every cell immolates in the frenzied desire for ethanol. It is very dangerous for a DWF ROG to go long stretches of time without alcohol. This is because you are addicted to alcohol. Your entire family is addicted to alcohol. Alcohol addiction is a very serious disease. It erodes your body and mind. It withers your spirit. However, it only increases your STR. And as you know, STR is the key component to the personal power of a DWF ROG. You must imbibe alcohol in moments of doubt or danger. You, above all, are a functional addict. You must express this regularly, especially while drunk. Make sure anyone you talk to knows that you can handle your drink better than they can. Establishing dominance is an important step in any relationship as a DWF ROG.

You have a long run ahead of you. Sneak through the forests of Kithicor. Gallavant your way to the rings of the West Commons. Find an elf. Make him enhance you with the Spirit of Wolf. It is not necessary to coerce with violence. You have a lot of alcohol. Usually, this is sufficient. Continue east. Pass through the tradehell of East Commonlands. This is where things get dicey.

Plunge into the forest of Nektulos. Drink many drinks. Stagger your way through the trees. Be judicious about your use of sneak/hide.

Arrive in Lavastorm. Sneak very carefully. Do not engage the monsters here. You are a DWF ROG, not a god. The monsters of Lavastorm are very dangerous and should be treated with caution.

Go into the temple of Sol Ro. Find Lon the Redeemed. Talk to him. He will give you a spiel about redemption. Agree with him. Say “I am a rogue in need of redemption.” He will give you a sealed note.

Spit in Lon’s face. If you can, shit on his boots. You are not in need of redemption. You are a rogue.

Return to Butcherblock Mountains by way of magic or boat. Run quickly to Dagnor’s Cauldorn. Sneak over the high crags. Swim across the lake until you come to a large island. Scale the cliffs of the island. At the peak you will find Conium Darkblade. This DWF ROG is your ally. You will do business with him again. Do not shit or piss on him..

Give Conium the sealed note. He will give you an axe. The axe is named “Never stop chopping.” It is ROG useable. Equip it.

Congratulations! You have finished your Illusion: Dwarf Warrior.

By whatever path you find, travel to Highhold Pass. In life, there are infinite Paths to the same destination. And sometimes, one path can yield many destinations. In this case, you must go to Highold Pass, which is a path in itself. And this is the latter type of path. Never confuse your personal Path with the Way of the Road. The Way of the Road is a code of ethics used by inbred humans who are responsible for moving commercial goods across the Antonican continent. People who follow the Way of the Road pee in gallon jugs and throw them out into the Karana. They solicit “lotlizards” AKA iksar female whores who are actually necromancer slaves working to collect vast quantities of human sperm aka “life essence.”

Now that you are in Highhold Pass, go to Highhold Keep. Turn on /role. Refrain from talking in OOC. From this point onwards, you must speak only in /say and you must speak as a DWF WAR would speak. Add the words “Plate armor” and “when do I get disciplines” to your lexicon. Also, be prepared to ask things like, “are warriors ever good?” and “is my path as a warrior equitable to my path as a spirit in this dimension?” These questions are amendments to your Illusion: Dwarf Warrior and should be used whenever someone doubts you.

In Highkeep Basement you will find between four to seven nerds all sitting around fighting goblins. They are fighting these goblins because these goblins carry precious treasures. These treasures are in the form of their own Left Goblin Ears, as well as Bricks and Blocks of High Quality ore. Usually, a character in project 1999 blue server classic everquest must slay a monster to loot its items. However, as a DWF ROG this is not the case.

This is where you will level from 7-13.

Go to the group. Pass out several drinks to each player. They will be fooled by this. They will also be drunk. Tell them you are just working on raising your weapon skill. If they ask, tell them you were leveling outside on the orcs in HHP, but your party split up. So you are using this as an opportunity to train 1HS.

The party will believe you are a Dwarf Warrior or Paladin training your 1HS skill. They will be glad for your company. (You must be charming at all times). They will be amused by the flow of alcohol (keep handing out drinks).

As the party brings in goblins, Pick Pocket mercilessly. You will learn the ropes on when to continue pick pocketing and when to stop. You will steal many Left Goblin Ears and High Quality Ores.

When the goblin says, “STOP THIEF!” Carry on. Pretend nothing happened. Eventually, someone will call you out. It is at this time that you must leave the basement for a while.

You will be able to rinse and repeat this trick many times over the course of a couple of days.

Do this until you have turned in enough ears to reach level 13.

Default How to play a dwarf rogue on p99 blue server. A tribute to EBK BLUUHD. part 4

Part 4
Herein lies the guide to leveling a Dwarf Rogue on the p1999 blue server.


You are now a killing machine. Your stocky dwarven limbs thrust with effervescent vigor. Gnomish dildo locomotives are put to shame, and an entire batch shipment is canceled. You are now famous in Ak’anon as well as any cultured city who prefers the gnomish sex toys to non-gnomish sex toys (also referred to as “crumdurggos”. Unfortunately for the pleasure of many, you are one thing and one thing only: a dwarf rogue.

At this point, you are level 13. You have trained Backstab, Dual Wield, and all other ROG skills. Using the profits from stolen HQ ore, buy yourself Lockpicks. Purchase a potion of Stalwart Regeneration or two. As a dwarf rogue, you are ridiculously weak. You are the star of the cast, but in a solo performance the critics walk away. As a proud dwarf, this is a source of everlasting shame. Dot succumb to this shame. Bad mouth all NPCs. Conceal your self-loathing. Bury it deep within the shelves of your chest just as Brell Serrilis buried your fiancé beneath the bedrock of Norrath. The potions of Stalwart Regeneration should be used only when around other non-healing, non-regenerating gimps. Drink this in private and then convince them that you regenerate faster naturally. Illusion is a key component of the rogue’s repertoire.

Before training the Art of Combat, it is recommended that you create a set of banded armor for yourself. To do this, you must train Blacksmithing. You need roughly 160p to forge your first set of banded armor from 0 Blacksmithing skill. If you have this much coin (which you should if you’re following this guide), take the time to level up to 115 Blacksmithing and then forge a Small Banded set. This skill will later increase your fame and fortune.

You must go now and train your body in the Art of Combat. While your fingers are deft, your skills are clumsy and untrained. Buy many bandages and lots of Muffins. You must now travel to a distant island.

Hustle your way across the vast hold of Karana. If you see a Hill Giant, you are morally obligated to pickpocket it. At this time, you are not skillful enough to lift platinum. However, the endeavor of Pick Pocketing a Hill Giant is extremely foolish and risky. You must face the fear of death and failure and confront it with action. In this practice you may enter the Void State.

Once you have made your way to the city of Qeynos, it is time to resupply. Buy 60 Brandy and 40 Muffins. Buy 80 bandages. Acquire a longbow and arrows. It is up to you if you want to take up fletching. You will be on an island alone, so it is often good to have something to do with your hands. The island has been known to drive folks mad. However, some of the island madmen wear magical earrings. You are too weak for this foe. At a later point, you may come and hunt these madmen.

Travel to Erud’s Crossing and go to the island there. This is where you will hone your skills and further increase your fortune. Find the willowisps and engage them in combat near the water’s edge. If you are wearing banded armor, you will find these opponents easy to rob of their most precious treasure: life.

By combating wisps you will gain two things. First you will level your weapon skills. Second, you will gain Greater Lighstones which is a precious treasure to the level 13 Dwarf Rogue.

When fighting wisps, you much watch them closely. A dwarf rogue should always seek to engage his foe with an initial backstab (unless you are sneak pulling away – something I have not yet covered). However, willowisps do not have backs. Or do they?

Watch as they travel. Sneak beside them. Stab them from behind.

Ghost Step:

To truly become a Dwarf Rogue you must master the Ghost Step. The Ghost Step is a hidden technique available to all rogues. Correct use of the Ghost Step allows the Dwarf Rogue to backstab his opponent even when the Dwarf Rogue is the lone combatant or face-tanking. The process is simple, but difficult to master.

1. On your exhale, step forward and pass through the material body of your enemy. By exhaling your breath you are emptying your body of life force or “prana.” In this Void state you may pass unhindered through the flesh and bone of your enemy.

2. Wait for your enemy to turn to strike you in the back.

3. Backpedal so that your form passes once more through the body of your enemy. At this moment, you must lash out with all your strength and plunge your knife into the NPC’s back before the server’s lag time catches up with your Void State Pranayama Ghost Step.

As the Dwarf Rogue reaches greater levels of mastery, he will find himself timing the ghost step in between rounds of attack. This synchronization allows for full up-front damage dealt to enemy and avoids taking attacks to the back which are heavily penalized, resulting in more damage received.

At first, you will find the wisps very difficult to perform the Ghost Step on. This is intentional. Though the wisps do not have a tangible form, they are still subject to the laws of Backstab. When attempting the Ghost Step on a wisp, you must forget what your eyes see. Reliance on eyesight is a mistake that young corpses make. By the time the eye of a Dwarf Rogue perceives something, it takes precious drops of time to register in the alcohol-sodden mind of the Dwarf Rogue and stimulate the CNS to properly respond. Therefore, you must learn to time your Ghost Step purely based on the flow of prana in and out of your body. You must close your eyes and become the master of the Void.

I really enjoy Borgnach's guides! Dwarfs are disgusting creatures.

 
An alternative way to backstab while soloing is to fight a mob diagonally, then after the mob swings you can strafe across into it's rear side to give it a poke. Doing it this way seems to reduce the chance of the mob also being able to get swings at your back or you missing out on auto attacks.

Agreed! It's fitting Borgnach plays a dwarf. The race really fits him well!

That's interesting too. So, what is this tactic called? We have learned "Ghost Step", what is this diagonal strafing move called? It needs a fancy name given to it...
