you're supposed to role a monk and level him on a burner account...then train them right at the spawn. might only annoy them, but if you keep at it you'll get under their skin eventually.

log back into real account. profit.

this is eq...you make your own solutions.

option b: make sad posts about how you can't win at EQ.
