A group of college freshmen play EQ for the first time

[Supaskillz]

The game has little in the way of in game guidance. Using other players as a resource was always central to the game so make sure you take advantage of that

Should be about an hour before they give up and go play WoW.

Just to point out, if you and your friends are living in a dorm and are sharing wifi, you will need an exemption from the staff. If you all have different IPs, you're good to go. Would suck to get banned on stream your first session, lol.

Remember, when this game consumes you and you all flunk-out, you'll have way more time to play.

Also, don't forget that games come before girlfriends, especially EQ.

Hi don't play this game. Use your school's free gym instead, and finish school

Pretty much sums it up. Even if you quit. These forums end up becoming a AA meeting for people who played and cant leave. This game replaced crack in the 99'.

If you're going to flunk your classes for an MMO, at least make it a game you don't need to be embarrassed about playing.

make all the chars near a central city ( qeynos area, freeport area or faydwer are good. class/stats is not important. faces are very important. the main thing you will need for the first few hours is:
1. locate yourself and your guild on the map using p1999 wiki map and /loc
2. equip your sword and find the autoattack key
3. become proficient enough at begging to get big plats from the guards, you must drink alot of mead to make this trick work
