It's not perfect, but I manage to get it to work without xp loss probably 2/3 or 3/4 of the time!

Using the spell Evacuate: (Zone) while in that zone will take you to the safe spot in that zone, just like the spell evacuate or succor. Not sure what other zones it is useful for, but if you use the L49 wiz spell Evacuate: West while in West Karana it will take you to the Qeynos Hills zoneline. Nice if you don't want mana loss or for those wizards who are not 57 yet.

Suppose it doesn't matter anymore though - but I still create only one char per account, but only incase hell freezes over and we can suddenly two box.


Also /q before leaving your empty corpse window if you accidentally loot all items of your corpse, it will leave an empty corpse around without the risk of leaving anything good on it.

this seriously work?

When you zone into West Karana from North Karana, look left and run into the ocean it use to have an invisible egg like bubble that would make you fall under the world and drop at evac point, which was conviently at Qeynos Hill zoneline or near of it. This was intentionally put here [Later confirmed by old EQ Dev's on FoH boards]. - Rogean found out about this and intentionally removed it so you would have to run.

Hi Rogean, this is Andain, I was in mumble when you spoke about removing this at the time... back when you would join it and chitchat more often then you do now. [I put this here in hopes 1 day he puts it back!]

If you push track [This is only with the current back-to-original-pro99-version] any mobs on top of track are freshly spawned. For example you kill Emp. Crush, run around til he repops, if he is most recent mob to spawn he'll be at top of track until another mob spawns] this goes to show you what all has be clear'd and repop'd lately.

Never tested it here, don't particularly care for it being on a pvp server and rogues chasing you, but when an NPC was chasing you and you'd spin in circles[As in look left/right which makes you spin in place.. simple as that], you would regain your concentration from what I saw 100% of time. Myself and a human druid I cant think of at the time tested this on SZ, believe he even got a Dev to come in and confirm it all though it was unintentional.

If someone is anon you can see what guild theyre in or not in, I use this on Anon players for red99 all the time and its been in on live since day 1. For example I am Andain, you go "/guildstatus Andain" and it'll tell what guild theyre in.

There is a zoneline from Lake of Ill Omen to Warslick woods in the goblin cave off to the right when facing Frontier Mountains in Lake of Ill Omen. This surprisingly well hidden zoneline is not known, due to its not on any old classic maps. Maybe someone can chime in and tell if its not on the newer Luclin/Pop maps that you could look at with backspace?

Somewhere in Neriak I don't recall where, there is a fire pot you can click that drops you in Lesser Faydark at the DE camp near Mistmoore, you use to be able to click back to Neriak. I know that in 2009 dev's removed the ability to click back - Possibly the ability to click down too? I believe its an ancient classic setting though!

Pretty simple, but just like real life the simple things go un-noticed. If you have Sneak [Such as any Halfling since its a racial identity] you can use Sneak then vendor with a merchant since your Indifferent when you're behind them. Also in my personal opinion why Halfling Druids are the best Druid race, ya you get +10% exp bonus but you can also sneak behind undead. Show me a wood elf druid that can get down to Master Yael right behind a Halfling. You gotta time roamers, be sneaky and also hope for a couple windows of opportunity but very possible.

Paineel guards don't give negative faction [until Luclin] when you kill them, there is no pos or neg factio nwhen killing them. They always drop a brass [I think brass? im drunk] shield and sword and up to 3 plat 5 gold. So about 10-13 plat per kill. If you have + faction with them you can farm them and vendor/sell non stop. They start as low level as 18ish - 30ish??

Dylan Starshine [im spelling that wrong] is in HHP. Kill him [hes 7 hours exactly, tested this many times] loot his note, finish his quest and you get a +10 wis +10 mana book, he is level 17 I believe? Rest of the quest is involved in qeynos and some gold. - Testament of Vaneer. Allakhazam it.

The Undead Cleric who spawns at South end [Near West Commons] who eventually roams down near zoneline spawns every 22mins. Every so often he drops a +5wis 1hb mace, level 34 cleric mob good starter item!

Im tired and need to go to bed, ill add more later.

-Andain.

EDIT/ADD: Was looking at my post to review then looked at comments above. If you loot everything on your corpse and go Oh Shit! And don't push escape, you can /quit, come back and have an empty corpse left to rez, this worked on live to but now that its brought to light, I can see a non-classic nerf come in place. - I died in The Hole going after a named and had to do this to get my rez back in 8/13ish.

A bit obvious, but macroing bind wound is one of the more worthwhile ones.

Once you can afford to skill up, there's really no reason not to, it helps with downtime and absolutely saves lives.

Also as an evil character, or someone who doesn't care about Qeynos faction, killing the Millers in Qhills for fun and profit is a great way to get from ~26-34, with a factionless merchant right around the corner in surefall you can easily sell that sweet bronze loot.

There's also a wiki someone made called the 6 minute bard diet, which is nice for days when you feel like soloing at a leisurely pace in relative safety by slaughtering a hapless bard every so often. http://wiki.project1999.com/6-Minute_Bard_Diet

One note about the Dylan Starshine Testament of Vaneer quest - I don't recall what level I did the quest but I remember most of the bandits back in his area were green/light blue. EXCEPT for one roamer that was red who wandered down to Dylan and back away. I remember sweating that out, because the first time I tried to kill Dylan the red one agroed and I had to zone. The higher level roamer should be put there on P99 to make it exciting.
