Also that harrowing fucking gauntlet from Firionia Vie if you were goodteam, following your EQAtlas map along a creek in a forest swarming with red con spiders, some of whom see invis, root you, and run at sow speed.

That run sucked for evils too. That butthole wood elf guard that roams the zoneline to the tunnel entrance killed my dark elf warrior more than once back in the day due to him rooting me. I did get an earring while in a fort group though, which I was proud of.

Ironically he also saved me a few times since I was a wood elf [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] I remember having aggro from a mob and realizing I was going to die, and then mister plate wearing elf man showed up to rescue me !

I still have PTSD from this. I'm terrified of spiders IRL and can remember if I saw them casting it was a nightmare etc.

One day I will play on a 5000 pop classic server with 4999 people who have never played EQ before, except one, me, the god of the server, and I will treat everyone like plebs and stomp on their camps..

This is the future that AI will bring!

The year was 2001. I was on my half elf bard...27th level.... full lambent, schw, dual centi longswords... pulling for sarnak ledge group in loio.

3+ hrs. No issues. Then I get lost on a pull in the middle the the fort. Died. Rage quit. Got off and went to my friends house. My brother got on after I told him I quit eq forever and did my corpse run for me. 2 weeks later we were talking about how his Ranger finally hit lvl 25. I told him I wished I hadn't rage quit my bard because we could have duo'd together. He told me he logged on and did my corpse run for me that day. That was the day my brother and I because real true bros. Duod on that ranger/bard til oow era.

Good times.

TLDR: yes, loio is very classic

[Castle2.0]

No manastone. Not classic.

I remember trying pretty hard to get a pair of sarnak earing and having to wait until project 1999 before I'd get any.

The drop rate on P99 has to be significantly higher because I always hear people talk about how easy they get the earrings. As a high schooler, I spent an entire summer break on my monk killing all the Sarnaks near Chancellor's room, all throughout the hallways, literally months, and never saw an earring drop. When I came to P99 I was like I bet those things weren't real and it was all a conspiracy theory that no sane person has ever heard of because I never saw one drop (even though I leveled a ton of alts in Sarnak Fort - possibly thousands of hours). But then I find out everyone on P99 has commonly seen them and I'm just like???

I remember the LOIO sarnak fort groups very well. Good times

[Gustoo]

It was good times. I remember everyone telling me it was the place to go even tho exp was better for me wandering around the karanas as a ranger. I noticed the exp was trash but it was the new world and fun to see. And everyone was there.
