Hello everyone.

I just got the game all set up last night and played for a few minutes and realized a barbarian shaman might not be the best if i need to keep making trips back to Halas just for spells.

I think ill reroll tonight either mage or enchanter so i can play closer to gfay or ec. Ill be around tonight a bit and more this weekend, usually 10pm-2am EST, if any other lowbies want to wreak havok on some orcs.

I started playing eq shortly after release until a little after shadows of luclin came out. I played a little of every class, but my highest was a 53 barbarian rogue, Sabor Shadowhawk.

See you out there!

Update with your name if you recreate, best of luck! Gnome mage is the best.

If you really want to play barbarian I would be willing to pre purchase your first several rounds of spells that you must travel for, to make it less of a hassle for your early levels. Let me know! I always thought the barbarian area of the world was cool, but if you wanting to do the CB/unrest/etc route I can see how that would be a horrible run

west karana is a pain.

I started a Barbarian Shaman last week. Up to level 3 already. I have the same on live(not lvl 3 though, lvl 110). I like the swim across into Halas :). But wow, I don't remember those mobs hitting that hard when my first shaman was that low!

I don't think it was in the velious timeline, so we probably won't see it here unfortunately.

Hello again. Giving quick update and had one favor to ask if anyone has an answer.

First, i got my gnome mage to level seven and was soloing/duoing just inside/outside crushbone and to avoid running back from gnome land again, i took advantage of a higher level player to bind me there at the zone line. Some reading this may know where this is going, but after camping for the night, i wake up the next day to find not only did i not camp out, but i died repeatedly there at the zone line, and to make matters worse my initial corpse had decayed, so now im a naked level 5 gnome mage lol.

So i took this as a sign to go back to my barbarian shaman. Named Trebjern. Through the grace of a friendly ogre shaman passing through halas, i have a fine steel great staff and 100gold that i spent mostly on spellls. I made a small fortune leveling to 7, which i spent on my level 9 spells, and made the run to east commons as i intended, where i find myself now, with a question...

I have about 10 plat to my name, and am wondering what is the first, cheapest item i could buy to speed up soloing. I suppose a good weapon would be the single best buy, im just not sure what to aim for. I see a lpt of stuff being sold for 200-500pp range, and occasionally a crappy piece of armor for 20ish, but one piece with 3wis isnt gonna do much

Any suggestions? I can of course save up to 50pp relatively quickly so something in that range.

Also, special thanks to the paladin Docdolittle for a 97% rez in highpass after i got mistreated by some gnolls.

Might be able to find a Springwood Club for 25-50p. Good ratio for melee at lower level to speed up killing and has decent Wis on it.

Not true. It should be coming in the next patch, although it's anyone's guess as to when that will be:

Springwood Clubs vendor for ~50pp, so people usually charge 100pp for them. A Barbarian Hunting Spear (https://wiki.project1999.com/Barbarian_Hunting_Spear) is a pretty solid weapon you can usually get for about 50pp; probably lower if you haggle a bit!

If you are ever heading thru Everfrost with a stack or two of Snake scales/skins (whatever I need for Scale skin) (hmm, if they stack!), I could sure use some to try my Scale Skin spell. Name is Panie and I am Level 5 now, (had to take a break), and am killing goblin casters to try and get caster beads to trade in for a Gavel of Justice. No luck so far!
