When/Where did you play?

[Ploppy]

I was on Lanys as a high elf pally named Deolyen. The only people I remember playing with there was Devi/Kaio.

On Vazaelle I swas Caylan half elf warrior and Ploppy the froglok wizard. I was the 3rd or 4th froglok to make max level. I was with PO for awhile then I took a break from EQ and when I came back I just hung out with old friends and some CC folk. I transfered Ploppy from Vaz to Morden Rasp to play with Baldrik and Eaman for awhile until I got too busy for it again. Those were some fun times.

I started eq at the beginning of phase 2 beta. My friends were in alpha and I was one of their referrals.

I played through beta with a paladin (gnar) that got absolutely nowhere, and then switched to a troll shaman and finally a human rogue which I made some progress with (skinner).

I was wrong-headed about the game, and shunned all of my friends' attempts at getting me involved in raiding and group activities all throughout beta.

In final, we all went to mithmarr. My buddies were in successful raid guilds, and I was dicking around roleplaying and whatnot. Later, most of the folks I knew migrated to test where I recreated my rogue (skinner) and was moderately successful and focused.

Finally when kunark was released I created an iks warrior and really had my first truly gratifying experience with EQ. I levelled up, formed groups and made friends, and found people to team up with and became accepted as one of the better up and coming tanks.

I hit a serious slump after kunark and before velious because of a lack of available armor for iksar which hurt my contention for tanking in planes raids. Fortunately I was able to tag along and pick up some Legionnaire scale which bumped me close to par with other pre-pog/pre-kael armor MTs.

Probably the most fun I had in eq was the velious beta, which is my favorite expansion by far and of course was the expansion where verant removed the 'seperate loot for iks' which meant that I could participate in raids with an equal footing on dkp/drop rotation.

[Maestron]

I started EQ just a few weeks before Kunark and quit just after my first Luclin Raid. Started with a mage (Maestron) then switched to enchanter (Fissel). I was in Revenants, Bruin's Marauders and Apex*. After way to much in guild drama I stopped guilding. I did OK on pick up raids and as filler with some guilds.

*I remember going through the applications for Apex. Having to group up with them to show I was a player of quality [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]. Very funny in retrospect. They were one of the better guilds on the server in 99/00. I even switched from mage to enchanter to be considered. never regretted that. Enchanter is a blast.

1999-2006 on the Tribunal Server

I played Nephretiri Anek'nekepnah, a level 65 enchanter first in the guild Dark Virtue, then in Dragon Army (previously Phalanx).

[Solter]

I started playing in 2001 and was instantly hooked. Started on the Vazaelle (sp) server which was changed/merged with Maelin Starpyre. Longest and most successful guilding was with Fantasy Awakened. I probably had the most fun in groups when the LDoN expansion came out. I loved those instances!!!

about 02-04 then 05-07 then 2010ish- now

I played on the nameless most of my career. Best server out there imo.

[Kadwen]

Hedbonker & Hasbinbad, I remember your names from Torv - Hed, you were a dwarf warrior... female, right? Ishka, did you run around as an iksar most of the time? For some reason that's the image that comes to mind.

And Canlrony... I was also in HA! I was Lildarie at the time - wood elf druid. Your name rings a bell but I believe you were before most of my time, can't really remember. I rolled with HA from the days we starting in PoHAte and held through until ToV, end velious. Afterwards, I rolled with Kile, Archonilus, and Kathrea over to EQ2 then Vanguard. I'm still in touch with Wildiili, if you remember her, btw.

[Akalakamelee]

i started playing right around kunark's release, played mostly old world when exping. got my mage (mercurix) up to 56, then got bored with it.

spent the rest of my EQlive time playing on rallos zek. mostly playing my ranger (akalakamelee) lvl'd him to 17 then delvled to 15 for some nice low end DW ganking =) i was pretty much done around luclin/PoP era, it was nice to port around to newb areas and kill people, but it became a "root before they get to the book" kinda thing...
