Talking Green99 pro strats and early game goals

Green 99 is coming. You won't have that precious fungi, no more running to the EC tunnels for buffs or to try to push bones and silk for crucial early cash. What are some early quests, techniques, strategies you do on a fresh EQ server? What are some early goals and gear you try to achieve? What is on your fresh start checklist? Share your strats, goals, tips, and tricks below!

For me first thing I like to run to quest NPCs who give you a bag, such as

https://wiki.project1999.com/Skeleton_Killing
https://wiki.project1999.com/The_Cigar
https://wiki.project1999.com/Ice_Goblin_Beads
https://wiki.project1999.com/Air_Tight_Box_Quest

Until you can get some backpacks of your own

My pro strat is to wait 2 months then start so I can level with buffs from the EC tunnel.

Eq is a journey not a destination.

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.

1-6 on mail quests
6-8 or 9 bone chips quest

Now you've got 30-40pp and can buy all spells and start killing mobs.

Pro strat: if you think you're getting a manastone and DE mask - you're not ....unless you plan to play 20 hrs a day and are part of the group that gets the camps on lock down.

10 practically homeless bald men will trade those camps between each other.

Sorry to be the logical rational response.

This. I wasn't actually planning to even roll a character on green, but my brother wants me to make a character with him. /sigh

I just don't get the obsession people have with those 2 items. I mean at least the mana stone is useful for awhile but the mask? It's a pure vanity item. The fact that people will be camping those things around the clock does not compute to me.

>Not making a mage coalition to bum rush content

Illusion mask is pimp item to use even way past velious for bragging rights on your DE monk.

Manastone has limited usability in old world only, and basically is just for wiz / druid

It allows you to go into some zones you would normally be KoS in (OT, Neriak to name a few) so it is more than just a vanity item.
