On a level 50 wizard on Rallos Zek, pre-Kunark. So, I zone into Greater Faydark and see this Dark Elf Shadowknight moving very, very slowly. He had full Umbral and the Soul Leech weapon. He saw me zone in and I had a very bad reputation as someone who liked to one-shot people with Ice Comet. He immediately starts sending me tells.

Shadowknight tells you, "dude please I know what you're thinking but I'll make it worth your while if you just let me go."

I begin casting Ice Comet. Shadowknight begins to slowly walk toward Lesser Faydark zone.

Shadowknight tells you, "COME ON I CANT DIE RIGHT NOW"

First Ice Comet drops him to about 40%. I begin casting the second Ice Comet.

Shadowknight tells you, "fuck you cocksucker you fucking queer, you'll never see the planes"

Second Ice Comet lands slaying the shadowknight. I loot him quickly and here the cha-ching. You have looted 11,400 platinum. He also didn't bag his Hooded Black Cloak.

LOL

I think the most difficult part is going to be when you have to tell everyone other than me about how they didn't win. It's gonna be awkward, but it's a sacrifice I'm willing to make.

right before they ended sullon zek i decided to quit eq so i sat in the bazaar and sold my account over and over to noobs for 5-7 million plat a pop then gave them fake infos.
i did this 30 or 40 times at the end of it i would have 3 or 4 people standing around me saying "dont give him any plat hes a scammer" and still the noobs bought plat to fill my coffers. i sold my account along with 60 million plat for 5k dollars paypal.

Oh no you don't!

[Lagaidh]

Some of the Ancient Cyclops stories made me want to tell mine. I have always been a DWF PAL as any of you knows if you've read my dreck here. I used to say I played the first character I ever created, but I remember I played the 2nd. I had named myself Lugaidh first. Lagaidh is better; same stats thought, base 61 CHA /rolleyes.

My wife started a few toons to try and find a fit. First a shaman, then a druid... AH cleric! This seemed right. Before knowing how to make decent money, I would camp the derv camps in SRO for gems and bronze weapons. I was very comfortable with the zone layout and the close merchant. It's al relatively safe for a 3rd string hybrid (I'd get better).

Anyway, I remember being L40 with not great gear. Kunark was just a week or two old. I was helping power level my wife's L15 or so cleric and then we saw something way tall that was NOT a sand giant.

Is that the AC? *Wipes eyes* I've only ever seen screenshots. Welp. Die or not I'm trying!

I was self buffed and this knockdown drag out fight ensues. Back and forth, root heal, root med, fight a little... My wife (or would be a year later) was in the room yelling and cheering.

I got that thing to about 54% and a Wizard runs up. I thought "Oh no!" On the Rathe server, at that time, Wizards had a horrible reputation for binding near popular camps, popping in when a timer went off. I never did remember his name. He cast a nuke or two while I kept swinging away with whatever 2h weapon it was I had, 18/39 thing (ACG?)

Welp. I kept agro, used my LoH and the AC dropped before me. I right clicked the corpse. It was mine. That wizard said "You are one lucky dwarf" and ported. I never could tell if he was trying to get it, or help. I always liked to think he had been rooting for me.

Not a gripping story, but I was always proud, that as a L40 paladin I had been able to get jboots all for myself. I had missed camping for them (and for rubicite) by a few days of their respective patches and so it was incredibly gratifying to have gotten something that usually only the DPSers got without help.

One time I was playing this really great server called project 1999. One day I awoke to 365 cheaters... True story

Anyone remembers that really old joke about putting your character level on your resume because it was quite an accomplishment to get to certain levels?
