Default How to gear up

I'm a warrior who's been on the server playing maybe once every quarter for about three years. I just reached level 53 and i'm still in some of my level 1 gear. I don't want to beg anyone for gear, but it's getting to the point that I can't tank in groups because I don't have the HP/AC and my weapons don't really generate threat, and I don't have any haste items.

How can I without begging begin to gear up my warrior?

What do other warriors do? I was thinking about getting a clicky invis item, because i'm usually stuck where ever I am bound. I can't move around without dying and when I do get somewhere I'm stuck till someone ports me. Am I just being a big baby? Do other warriors just throw themselves out there or are there some major items i'm not using?

If it helps, p99 was my first exposure to classic EQ and this is the highest level character I have.

It was at this point I decided to no longer be kind to the casuals as they have extreme short term memory. They did this to themselves, unfortunately.

Are there any guard factions you are willing to trash for plat? Killing guards and then vending their weapons/shields is always an option, even if your gear is less than optimal.

Warriors have it tough in terms of travel, bind spots, no invis, etc. Wishing you the best of luck Snorlax!

Go anywhere with Goblins and loot ore.
  • SolA
  • Permafrost
  • High Keep Basement

If you're lucky, you can make around 600p in like 30 mins.

Just depends on how many blocks drop.

Unfortunately, I've gotten my plat looted in PVP. The inability to go to a bank often means that I'm usually carrying all my plat on me.

Where can I start killing guards? I'm an Ogre, so I'm sure that I can handle losing some faction on halflings or something. Can I really kill them with very little DPS?

join a guild, a warrior is not a solo class and you need friends.

1 dungeon group in seb will yield probably 5 upgrades

RoZ is already dying, its a two box server and the average population is 120 per night. This half brain here keeps talking it up, but it's just a cheap arcade box that's fun for a day or three.

And as far as guards, go to highkeep. I'd say in your current gear you could get around 275p an hour, if not more.

120\2=60 roz assuming all are 2 boxing
30/1=30 r99 players
Penish=mad

Someone check my math plz.
On topic tho, get into a guild and warm body it up. They won't even notice that you're sporting cloth.
