Im a Halfling Cleric and i always get asked everday for SoW's and Ports so i went to every cleric guild and looked for a SoW spell and a Port spell but could never find any... so finally i found one at the druid guild, but i cant scribe it into my spell book. Is the game glitched???

Halflings cant port. It would burn the hair on their feet.

Teaches you for creating the worst race in EQ.

I hope eventually live does the right thing. Pillages Rivervale and removes the race entirely from game. Same with gnomes. And people who claim ogre shamans are the only option for shamans.

...people who claim ogre shamans are the only option for shamans.

Someone was saying you can't tank Lodi without being an ogre shaman. Totally untrue, troll/iksar get regen to help their canni and still managed it fine on live. Also there's not many barb shammies around at the top end these days.

It's bad. You'd get tells from other zones asking for ports (wtf!?). Happened a lot even though my Halfling cleric never even got past his mid 20s.

I eventually rerolled as a dark elf. Foolishly got my hands on a burynai legion gi (robe) and now I get asked for clarity. *facepalm*.

If your class can be an elf, be an elf. See Druid, Cleric, 3 Pure Casters, Bard, Ranger, Rogue, Warrior, Paladin.

If your class can be an iksar, be an iksar. See Shaman, Monk, SK, Necro

Only exception is Necromancer. Must be iksar, dark elf is an invalid option.

No other races are necessary.

Yeah, why don't I cut my balls off and fill the bleeding hole with tampons while I'm at it?

Because that would be a bad choice.

Whereas what I suggested is a good choice.

It's pretty obvious here...

My troll sk gets asked for SHM buffs all the time. I have a sow katana, so I usually swap that in, sow them, then run off. Guessing 90% think I'm a stingy bitch. :p

Was about to get a rez on my iksar necro the other night and figured I might as well necro heal some dude who zoned out on half health.

"spare a sow?", he asked.

The only way that I can think of elf being a good choice is if you're an exceptionally frail girl IRL and want your character to reflect that about you

I also get mistaken for a monk or shaman. I guess iksar warriors are not a common choice.

I also get asked all the time on cleric.

This is my move:
Fill a handmade backpack with 10 single dose SoW potions. (I make them on my main)
When asked for a sow, I say "10pp please".
When they put the 10pp in the window, I trade them a potion.

Still working on the port troll...

I feel your pain. I got all kinds of requests until I got the purple armor on my cleric.

When asked for a SoW on my Halfling Cleric, I would always cast Shield of Words on them.

I hope eventually live does the right thing. Pillages Rivervale and removes the race entirely from game.
So, a "classic custom" server started up back in 2004 or so called Winter's Roar. It's known as Shards of Dalaya now, and 10 years later it's not very classic since raid gear has inflated to nearly the stats of live.

Anyways, this server is completely custom with its own lore, gods, etc. Part of the lore involved Rivervale getting totally fucked by the main evil dude (some Iksar, can't remember his name atm). He infects parts of the world with "the mist" or whatever.

Anyways, Rivervale eventually got infected with this shit. I was one of the first people to explore the zone after it got updated, and it was one of the most memorable MMO experiences I've ever had. Essentially, the entire town is haunted. There's a couple quest lines there, and talking to the NPCs alone is creepy enough, not to mention when you finally make it inside the druid guild to find the cannibalistic halflings...

Basically, haunted Rivervale > classic Rivervale. That shit was awesome.

Edit: If you're curious, http://wiki.shardsofdalaya.com/index.php/Rivervale. Still doesn't do justice to how creepy experiencing this zone is.

Hopefully linking SoD stuff here is okay. I'm not really recommending the server over P99 since I think it has some serious issues that have been neglected over the years (inflation and the raid scene makes it nearly impossible for new players to get into).

Nope. And I bet the othere's aren't either.

I think people must believe halflings have some plate cultural armor for druids or something.
