New player to Project 1999
 
Hello all,

I wanted to introduce myself since I just started playing on this server over the weekend.

A bit about me: I started playing everquest a before Velious came out on the 7th Hammer Server. I leveled up a Barbarian warrior to about 30 then quit until PoP when I got 52.

I came back again in 2004 and played on Vazelle where I made a Berserker named Kuato. I was one of the first players on the server to get my Berserker epic (actually a naked Barbarian GM came to help me get it because my friends got death touched) I raided tons of PoP, Omens, GoD content.

I came back a few years ago on a progression server and raided as an Ogre Warrior. I totally forget the name I used it seemed so fast.

Now i'm a level 13 Ogre Warrior here on Project 1999. :) Looking forward to meeting all of you. So far the experience has been great. People have been super friendly, helpful, and groups have been fun. Right now I'm looking to level up, so I can get started raiding again. If you're around my level, want to group, or need a Warrior feel free to PM me ingame @ sneadles or post a reply here. I'm typically will be on ~6PM PST - whenever i should go to bed.

You picked the right class/race combo dude. I'm about ready to start parsing how often during a fight I get stunned from the front and see how much dps/aggro time I lose on mobs.

Welcome to p99.

Welcome to p99.

I know right? I really wanted to make a human or a different race this play through but.....since it appears warriors won't ever get stun immunity here I'll need to continue the trend.

Frontal stun immunity doesn't really make a difference on a warrior. Play whatever you like most.

Hi,
I used to play EverQuest in 2000-2003, but the PoP expansion totally destroyed the game for me - I loved killing those giants for Dragon rep; and then the new expansion came out and that all ended. I had a bard with the singing sword and as much as I loved playing WoW, it was never a replacement for my bard, which I loved and adored.
Anyway, I'd like to get back into it however I cannot find the Titanium Edition of the game either to buy nor download.
Any advice so I can get started? ps, there is no rush I wont have a pc for a month or so.
Thanks.

I remember getting chain stunned on my barbarian. Never want to live that experience again. There'd be times id slightly move to the left to line up, get stunned, next you know i'm doing 360s.

You could purchase it on Amazon, but I'd bet you originally bought EverQuest up to Velious... I'd find someone who's savvy with the internet if you're not and see if there's any alternative sites that have it (I don't like Amazon :p)

However you get it, it's EverQuest Titanium you're looking for.

I was up to PoP, and that was the reason I quit - I think in the first two months I got like two or three groups the rest of the time spent LFG.
Someone has sorted me out with Titanium P1999; now I just need a PC. I saw that there was a mac emulator, but I don't think my 2007 mac mini will hack it; it's barely able to run itunes and chrome together let alone an MMO :)
But it wont be long now.

My favourite memories from EQ the first time around.
Getting to level 40 on my druid and not having to sit to med!
Exploring Velious for the first time with my guild - much fun to be had.
Starting a bard and learning 4 song twisting.
Getting Positive rep with Ring of Scale and doing a dance around Gorenaire.
Selo's super dooper run speed!
Soloing Mistmore Castle on my bard - and those frickin' see-invis pat mobs GRRR.
Averted a Raid wipe in Vellious killing a Worm for dragon quest armour with bard(me) + wizard + cleric; that was a crazy fight, and we were dead lucky to have just the bare minimum classes to get the worm dead.
Did I mention selos speed? :D
