Still looking for a couple more mage players. Group is looking solid.

Problem with your statement is that pet spells were considered "enhancement to the class" by Brad himself...you know the guy who created Everquest? Meaning that these were not a bug or lack of development resources. See bold in quote below. At the time they only wanted higher pets to cast spells apparently. So, no, not a bug bro.

Give it up dude. If you can't provide sufficient proof, and no one has provided sufficient proof in the last TEN YEARS with regards to the state of magicians at launch, including what were the changes and when they were made, you're beating a dead horse.

Wanting magicians to be weak at launch does not make it so. They will be OP.

ugh. I really thought you guys could figure it out given a list of 20 quests, most of which are obviously not it. Too lazy I guess.

Say something to reebo. Get an item. give reebo item back, get exp. You can do this in 3.5 seconds. You can reach level five in an hour or so.

That covers reaching level 4 on Mages, but what quest gets you your pet spell money?

I might give this a go. I'm feeling challenged.

Hint: You don't do the whole cycle.

I see what you are saying -- well in theory. Just get rotten crate of carrots and hand it right back into Reebo. Then either destroy the good grate (or keep it since lore) and keep turning into Reebo. At lvl 2 the Reebo part of the turn in is 1.5% XP ..... you'd have to turn it in 40 times to get to lvl 3.

I can see maybe doing it to level 3, maybe, but after that it sure seems like it would take awhile... but I guess better than killing mobs in the newbie yard?

Quest, not doing whole cycle, falls of a cliff badly at level 3. I understand if there's like nothing to kill and hundreds in the newb yard but man, I'm trying to play a game not spam carrot crate for 1/5th of a blue. Not to mention you aren't getting shit for plat, items, or skill ups for five levels this way. It is pretty brisk for one and two though.

Plus I just made a halfling to log right in and spam the macro, not having to run a naked 1 human to Rivervale to do it instead of camping a single skele spawn outside Freeport.

Please be sure to post your in-game names so the greater community can follow along in amusement.

It takes like 10 more minutes of clicking to get to level 4, faster for a Mage than running to exp mobs and finding enough of them. Me testing it out a couple of hours ago:

[Thu Oct 10 09:30:28 2019] You have gained a level! Welcome to level 3!
[Thu Oct 10 09:40:37 2019] You have gained a level! Welcome to level 4!

May want to rethink going mage. Proof finally uncovered that mage pets did NOT cast spells until the end of May 1999. Also pets post 20 were not in game around then (research only): https://www.project1999.com/forums/s...=1#post2981049

Yeah I underestimated the spam clicking.... if you macro in a /hail so this little shit doesn't run around you can legit spam the macro and spam click him and move your "give" window to your cursor and go forever. Lvl 4 is quick, about 15 minutes lvl 1 to 4. Of course you have 0 pp for spells, but easy enough to get enough for the 1 pet you'll need, you don't need any of the other spells.
