View Full Version : Redgrocer's First YT Moments!

Verbose version:
Just had my very first YT experiences (couple deaths and a kill!), and I gotta say... this is certainly an interesting way to play EQ. I'm at least mildly hooked. It's definitely neat to see the dynamic between player-killers and xp groups. And for as much as people complain about the "evildoers/greifers"... as much as they can interfere with your xp plans, I think the added element truly enriches the playing experience:
Not knowing who (or what) is waiting for you around the bend, all of the sudden being under-attack, finding it within yourself and your group to stand-up to the aggressors, etc...
Tonight's excitement was brought to us Cird and Curd, two Troll brothers who live in Crushbone and came out of nowhere to attack us while we were rolling through orc after orc like a well oiled xp machine!
They gave our group quite the hard time for a while until we regrouped, talked out a plan, and worked as a team to push back as best as we could.
For a while, we actually had the tables turned! We even had them pinned against the ropes for a moment as one of them got a *little* too close to the Kelethin guards than they should have and ended up with a corpse on the orc lift! (I am impressed that they were able to retrieve it, quite honestly!)
In the end, the evil Cird and Curd brothers dispersed, and I am now currently enjoying a beautiful relaxing evening, sipping on some [Short Beer] and fishing for some [Boar Carp] in Crushbone.

TLDR version:
Curd killed me, then I killed Curd by hitting him on the head with a [Cracked Staff]
Much excitement and laughter was shared.
In other words...

good job at fighting them and not quitting! never not fight back when someone comes to pk you during xp sessions, just think of it as being a named mob that has bad hygiene.
also thank you for the tl;dr much pras

Irrelevant. All that guy ever did was spam ooc/auc in ec tunnel.
I get he may be a cook, and that he may have been trying to sell wares.. but keep the roleplay crap out of OOC.. which stands for out of character after all, and is filled mostly with people that don't care to hear that.

I dont care to hear a bunch of manchilds emulating the barren chats channel either, but heh
Id take this kind of light RP, storytelling any day of the week over unimaginative PRAS and OOC verbal vomit post #4520 "youre a faggot"

Would like amended rules for Redgrocer:
In addition to coin players will also drop the corresponding meat of their race.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Idea of the *century*, Kergan! =) (Although, I could see folks just massacring mannequins at their bind point to harvest ridiculous amounts of meat if this were implemented, thus sending the racial meat market into a sharp crash, and nobody wants that.)
I actually thought last night about keeping a piece of Halfling Parts and maybe a sandwich or two in one of my main inventory slots so you'd see it if you killed me and looted my coin. (Can you right-click to see into bags on a corpse?)
To everyone else, thanks for the words of welcome and encouragement! I'm looking forward to a few hours of Red99 fun after work in a few hours. Specifically, I plan on xping in Crushbone again tonight, so if anybody wants to come by and help keep Cird and Curd at-bay, there just might be a group of lowbies that would appreciate the help!
See you in-game later!
-your Redgrocer

Nope you can't search bags, but you're right they'll see that sandwich if its in your inventory.
Maybe make the meat a rare drop!

Hah! Good to see a well-mannered and entertaining RP'er enjoying Red. I've been on the fence about trying the server out for a while; mostly, I've just been unsure of what to expect from the community (it's not easy to judge just by reading the forums & ooc). Seeing this post has definitely convinced me to give the server a go - I'll be sure to save all my lowbie meat drops for you when I roll up a toon tonight :)
Three cheers for the proprietor of EC Tunnel's most honorable establishment.
(P.S. Seeing as how you might have to actually hire people to guard your wares from meat thieves, I'd be happy to fill out an application for a future position).
