Have you ever had a panic attack in EQ?

When that wood elf chick I was cybering turned out to be a dude. And then the next night when that dark elf chick I was cybering turned out to be a dude. And then the following night when that high elf chick....

I can remember bruising my hand really bad from pounding my desk because...someone stole our raid kill in Kael one time.

Other than that I have been pretty easy going.

Haha one good friend did this on p99 not long ago.

And i heard of like 5 others [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Panic attack? Not really. A couple broken mouses from post-death temper tantrums? Absolutely.

The most thats ever happened I think was my heart lept up into my throat a few times during my turn at my epic mob and being unsure if we could finish off Queen in Chardok due to an enchanter going down or a wizard.

Lol first off, if you had a panic attack, you would know how horrible and scary they are. Ive only had like two panic attacks in RL ever and didn't even know I was capable of feeling such stress, but those were due to RL things, like boyfriends. It's the worst feeling ever, and I dont think it could ever happen to me in game because if I messed up a quest you could always petition it or fix it in some way - Cant petition a GM to fix RL issues that come up though!

Well, you could... just don't be surprised if they try to slowly push that boyfriend out of the picture.

Does it count if, at about 2am with all the lights off, during an intense raid in Kael, a giant tree roach runs across your hands and keyboard and vanishes into the shadows? Thats about the closest i've ever come to wetting myself.

I'm sure at some point in time some poor wis caster *must* have handed in their Testament of Vanear to the Erudin Cleric's Guild hoping for an even more awesome quest reward... only to get some random cleric spell scroll and faction in return.

Yeah, me, two weeks ago. On a side note, I got my brewing up pretty high doing the camp twice. There were 2000 posts about dyllin's spawn time, and jack about the quest, so I made my way to erudin 20 seconds at a time, kept dozing off from that stupid camp, thought that was the end of the quest. WRONG. Languid Pace, whoopty doo.

Roflmaoooo, def. just spit my dr pepper out all over my keyboard =(.

Oh, and 2 weeks ago handing a Manastone over to a friend so he can transfer it to my other character, then when logging on my other character my friend says "What? You never gave it to me dude, I been waiting this whole time"........FML.

My Wizard was in Lava and passed a Mage standing around. All of a sudden the Mage's pet attacks me. I am totally shocked and run like a baby. The pet kills me. I have absolutely no idea where my corpse is. I am shaking. I am confused. I am shocked. What the hell happened? The laws of my universe flip flopped. I am on a blue server, this is not right.

I petition a GM (they were around then). The GM has no idea how it could happen but helped me find my body. I never found out what happened and was scared to play for ages.

^ you're positive it was a player Mage? Because there was a camp of NPCs in Lava (some of them vendors IIRC) and one of them was a potentially-aggro caster.
