Stupid things you believed about EQ way back then

[Nedala]

That the first and last one who rolls (/random 1 100) gets a higher chance to a high number. I kinda still believe this, i always tried to roll at first on important items (still do) and was pretty lucky with it lol. Now you know my trick! [You must be logged in to view images.

Even though I now KNOW it has no bearing on miss rates, I still swing around to get on higher ground when I melee.

I've got the highground anakin!

that if you looked at the sirens on the boat ride to freeport (or anywhere near land) that it would trigger pirates

the shark in oot would drag your corpse away and hide it forever

that you would DODGE better if you had cut-off clothes (vest, shorts....clothes that in real life wouldnt hinder movement) so monks in robes were stupid, wearing full plate made you slower ect, ect.


that sandgiants were like T-rex's and wouldnt aggro you if you stood still..................... fucker whoever told me that >.>

for the longest time i thought clerics/paladins got bonus exp off undead mobs, in fact til recently i wasnt sure if it was just a rumor or not.

[Titanas]

I thought PC's were Personal Computers
and NPC's were Non Personal computers
Giant Sea Creatures
Trusting people with charm while dueling.

I think thats about if for me

That I was qutting EQ forever...

And that if I didn't stack haste effects in the right order they would get borked, although I think this might be less of a superstition and more of a lack of trust in Sony's shat-hole programming skills.

Oh, the number of times I've thought that =X

[Aetherial]

I remember believing that Agility really was the best stat for a Ranger and I loaded up on it when I made my main.

Oddly, I never thought that so much. I've re-activated my live account a couple of times in hope of keeping the characters intact.

Sometimes I still think about checking out Live again.

When I did 'quit' - I did think that would be it, but it was just because the game was older, etc...

Makes me curious though... to be honest. I know live is so much different now.

[Lagaidh]

I wonder about live from time to time too. I know that I bought Secrets of Faydwer, but my RL career was picking up, and I hated the constant need to upgrade with each expansion. I never got to fully experience the expansions I had before another was out. Lagaidh the 1st ended up L71 I think.

Sometimes I wonder if I could get any RL $ for my AoN and plat on live. My toon has some good flagging, but I could never ever sell my account.

[Braveguard]

I can't really think of any that I believed. I heard a lot of them though. The clockwork dragon was my favorite I think.
