... and totally love it!
New player here obviously. I was once more being all nostalgic about old EQ with some friends and complaining how much the game was dumb down over the years. One of them asked me if I heard about Project 1999. Of course I googled and here I am!
First thing I did was to remake my old Teir'dal necromancer and I even was able to get my old name! Double happy girl! I think I died 3 times at level one and many other times reaching level 5 ROFL. I forgot how hard Nektulos was with all the aggro from both social mobs and aggressive ones. Plus the skelly eating my exp!
But then I managed to get a full armor set of cloth and a cracked staff and a few players helped me out with backpacks, stuff to vendor for coins for my spells, buffs and even a very good chestpiece (thank you so much guys)! I was not asking or expecting any help and was pleasantly surprised at how nice people were in P99! Now my son wants to play also (we are waiting for an ip immunity).
I'm relearning to play intelligently, pulling to safe areas, being aware of wanderers etc. absolutely love it!

Those decaying skellies with a cracked staff are always a welcome sight! :)
Glad you're enjoying it... always loved Nektulos, be sure to check out the undead spire/monolith thing near the EC zoneline (just to the left, in a corner) when you get to level 7ish, they're great to kill and single pull :)

Welcome aboard. You picked a really good class on here. Great for getting loot high end. And they really don't need much gear to do it either. Nice to see another women join also. Glad that P1999 appeals to both sexes. :D

Made me sick, had to scroll away from his message haha.
P.S. Welcome to the server! EQ truly is a gem~ No MMO since has been as immersive for me and I think it's largely due to it's challenge that forces you to actually pay attention to what you're doing and your surroundings!

I noticed that. It made me think I'd missed another event like EQ Mac exodus.

Unfortunately I ran all the way to Field of bones and rerolled as an Iksar whom I managed to get to level 4 (that journey was awesome and an adventure in itself). But if you have a character out there, sure lets kill together! Look for Zsassmilya.
