Kobold shaman patrolling. Very red. Got everyone back together and wandered back in that direction, this time I found a nice low level kobold runt. Tagged him and brought him back to the shammy and wizard. Got a few good hits in, switched to shaman to melee... Kobold shaman shows up. Dead.

Drop the wiz box and decide it's too hard to roll three deep. Go back to newbie area. Go to opposite side of the area. I find a decaying skeleton. Excellent. Engage him, switch to shaman. Kobold shaman. Dead. Rage quit.

Since freakin when are there red wandering mobs in the steamfont newbie area!?! Grr.
there have always been very red merbs wandering in all the noobie areas from what i remember, except maybe freeport



dont ragequit bro, get some levels so you can come back and make that kobold your bitch

That is frustrating... When stuff like that happens, I take some time to go exercise. Getting away from it helps the build-up of frustration subside and you can start fresh after you clear your head.

Yeah man, Steamfont can be rough, would kill bats and bugs in FP, practice switching toons, and venture off into Norrath. Saw you in game for a brief min, if you need any buffs ask around, people will help. I got a lv1 beastlord lfg.

also, I second B4EQWASCOOL. Working out is great for mind and body. Makes EQ more fun.

WoW is basically a game, made for non-gamers.

If it's your first time playing Everquest or you're having a hard time at low levels while boxing, my suggestion is: stop boxing and level 1 character as a main - get a feel for the char, the server and the newbie zones, cause this game isn't very forgiving when it comes to bad decisions. Paying attention to your surroundings at all times is a good way to learn how to survive, regardless of levels!

You can always PL another char later on, and just cause boxing is allowed, it doesn't mean that's exactly what you must do to enjoy the game or the server you're playing on.

I've played WoW for all of 20 mins and I played EQ from launch til 02. I know the game.

But I never remember steamfont being like that. And it's definitely not in p99.

That's because p99 isn't classic, it just claims to be to play on peoples nostalgia. I remember the shaman though

Kurns isnt active yet on either of the server, FoB is. If you think the mob is a bug please help either project out and post a report with detailed information and the issue can be resolved. If it it is part of the game, well that does totally suck, sometimes EQ isn't fair and it doesnt take long for shit to go wrong.

He's new at boxing, Kurns would require higher level assistance. When new to boxing, Freeport is your best choice for learning how to box etc.
