New on the server, went for "the challenge"

[Peon25]

So I'm totally "enjoying" my 68% experience penalty as an Iksar Shadow Knight right now. Not so much on the fact I lose more experience than I gain when there's no groups to be had, because necros prefer soloing and high levels are in Field of Bone powerleveling their buddies. Ah well.

Despite how I feel from playing EQ Live, Iksar really is the "master race" due to the permanent AC increase they get which will carry forward forever. Plus there's tails, and that's worth something too!

I was able to help a human warrior out last night, and ran to purchase him food/drink/bandages, and that made me pretty happy. I am anticipating the difficulty of existing in a world where my options are limited, albeit Velious changes that all a bit, and if ever Luclin and PoP come around, it's a moot point in that realm.

I had a nice higher level hand me a SK piercer (nothing fancy, just substantially better than the tarnished slasher I had before that I pried from a skeleton) and an assortment of merchant-purchased cloth/leather gear. Playing low levels on Live servers is a different realm as I would typically throw a Hiero cloak, Fungi, some Luclin weapons, etc to newbs to help them out. In here it's all about low numbers plowing it out against low numbers.

I'm an experienced EQ player, and will hopefully be able to stick with this and enjoy the raiding game in the future. It's exciting to start fresh!

Send ' Dermal ' a tell in game and say hi. I have silks and bone chips! =P
