new cleric to p1999 red
 

hey @everyone,

i am new here as of yesterday. i rolled a gnome cleric on red and i plan to play evenings from about 9pm pacific time to 12am pacific time.

i don't have any statistics around the population of everquest back in 1999 - ~2002 but my gut tells me it was a bit less than the population on blue which made me worry about crowding.

at any rate, i hope to see you all around. it's a shame i am so late to the server, but i have been enjoying a couple of the custom servers on eqemulator for the past few years.

I have an 11 Warrior if you wanna group up when youre in xp range!
Wouldnt mind starting fresh with ya either

i made it to level 5. i accidentally picked brell instead of bertoxxulous, but i am going to take the bob ross approach to this.

@swish - i will very likely need that, thanks!

@jmcwrestling - i'll work my way up. the weekend is here so i will put in a couple extra hours at night.

I have a lv 15 shaman, been out of town but will be back sunday.

I took a similar path as you and played many of the other servers for years before leaping into the P99 scene. Being super casual, I don't raid but I get to have some gaming fun when/if I want + how I want. I haven't played on Red as much as Blue but both have decent players that will extend the olive branch when you're around. Welcome aboard fellow EQ'er. /salute

Don't underestimate the power of undead nukes! Kurn's Tower is definitely the best solo CLR 9-22 spot!

@amyas - i'll do my best to catch up.

@whirled - i am glad to hear i am not alone. i really liked sod because it gave me that classic eq nostalgia with a fresh twist. i hope someone can pick up where that team left off. that said, classic eq should keep me plenty busy for at least a year.

@lulz~sect - i will definitely head that way if i can manage it. asking for a port and a bind at the kaesora ruins feels like a lot to ask of someone though!

@clazxiss - i will see what i can do one of these evenings.

Welcome! :)

@cylock - i appreciate the welcome.

i forgot to mention that my ign is baubleberry if anyone wants to group when i get a bit higher level

You'll find cleric to be very rewarding if you enjoy the support role. You'll be needed for just about everything.
