by Avitaway, 345 days agoWell the votes were in and unsuprisingly pretty much the entire server voted for Kunark to be opened, this gives a much needed bit of breathing space for leveling now and the old world zones were overflowing.
So of course this now means the Level Cap has raised to 60, Epics have been released and some decent dungeons and dragons now need to be conquered, looking forward to giving some of the old mobs a good kicking thats for sure.
by Avitaway, 352 days agoWell I have been back playing Everquest now for almost 2 months an I am having a blast! I am currently playing a Bard on the Fippy Darkpaw server (TLP) and we are currently going through the voting process for releasing Kunark, leveling was pretty tough once I got to level 40 due to the limited place you can actually go and level and the amount of people actually in them trying to level. There are usually between 80-100 people in Ocean of Tears all trying to get to 50 and Lower Guk and Sol B are not much better with all the camps taken up pretty much 24/7 so Kunark is going to be a welcome release, it certainly has my YES vote anyway!
I am in a Euro Raiding Guild called Rosengard and we have a pretty solid raid force, it feels very strange trying to kill mobs with Fine Steel Weapons and such but I have been able to get a few upgrades from the Plane of Hate and Plane of Sky but the real fun will begin with the release of Kunark and those ever elusive Epic Weapons, will be good fun trying to chase down the spawns for these again thats for sure while trying to equip the entire guild with these awesome weapons, so fingers crossed for the 6th June!
On other items as I have reached the cap and only really play Fippy on Raid days while I wait for Kunark I have also been playing around on Antonius Bayle with Jamthor leveling up a Shadow Knight and Wizard that I am 2 boxing, currently my SK is 65 and the Wizzy is 59 and I am working on there Epic weapons, been having fun slapping down old fish face in Kedge Keep but still no Wizzy drops yet, but I have got the Plane of Hate drop for the SK Epic and I am clearing Plane of Sky hoping for the drop from there on an almost daily basis but no look there, however myself and Jamthor's tribe of multiboxers did go and swat Terror in Plane of Fear last night to get the Sword drop from there that is like golddust so it was the first raid AF has done in Everquest for god knows how many years yay!
So if anyone is looking for some fun then feel free to give us a nudge, we are going to see how much raid content we can kill either solo or with our group of boxed characters (when we can find it up) and it will be good to see if anyone else wants to tag along. Also if anyone wants to get involved in some raiding fun old school style you can find me on Fippy and I would be happy to sponsor you into the Guild I am in there.
Will keep things upto date on here about how we are doing and i'll get some screenshots up ASAP!
