Jesus what a perfect EQ nightmare right there.

Besides a CT pop repopping the whole plane, even if he was up, something as simple as buff or heal aggro could spread from the trash across the zone to CT, who started death touching those folks, and then sent the Amy temple to your raid buddies. This neato feature was removed at some point early on thank gawd.

A train of squidheads coming for you as you camp in desperation, duped corpses from getting DT'd on camp... lol early EQ...

I was also on Brell. We had some friends from Silent Redemption come and help. We had meet them at the EQ Event in the Seattle Area the month before. This was around mid Velious release.

We had a seriously chill server compared to the rest, no server firsts to mention but the unofficial roleplay server was just full of great folks.

I was in <Misericordia>, Repic, wizard.

I was Zyrro, Shaman in several guilds. <GNV>, <Mythic Voyagers>, <Primal Honor> home of the famous Page 8 asshat that killed our guild, then Sphere of Honor which I was in for many years until it went poooof right as we got into Plane of Earth in PoP. Stopped playing after that.

Why is this even on rants and flames? I guess it is a rant.

I took a PUG group that I arranged through going through like 50 tells into droga for a few hours, we crawled all the way to chief and then we had to leave and we didnt have gate pots/wc caps because this was everyones first char on the server and we were n00bs. So we crawled all the way back to entrance and right before we got to the path to the exit, one of our really tired party members decided to go around a corner and aggroed like 8 mobs when everyone was low mana. We died when we were so close to the exit.

Corpse running with no high level help was gruesome, luckily our rogue stayed up to drag everyone. Nobody knew anything about the zone, we didn't know you could just invis throughout the whole zone. It was bad.

It was also very late at night (even though it was a weekend). So we crawled all the way back to entrance (well the exit I should say since the entrance and exit is not the same path) and right before we got to the path to the exit, one of our really tired party members decided to go around a corner and aggroed like 8 mobs when everyone was low mana. We died when we were so close to the exit.

We're all allowed a double post every once in awhile.

The worst CR for me was the old CT battles in fear during an off hour. His old mechanic would chain fire DT's and as people died went LD camped out and desync'd the bodies would pile up. Sometimes the CR would last all day if people would just bounce afterwards while dead. Thanks tmo.

Worst CR? First Naggy raid ever, back in '99. Pickup raid (aka the debil). Casters were asked to bound in the 'safe hall', so when they died, they could mem a few nukes, pick up a coin on the ground (so your naked corpse wouldn't rot) then run in and try to get a few nukes off before you died again. We wiped hard as the raid was pretty clueless and under geared. Most of us casters died a few times charging back in. I don't even think we knew Naggy was a bellyl caster. We eventually gave up and were forming up for CR in the safe hall when the FGs repopped on us and put a lot of us in death loops. Fun, fun, fun. Those were the days that you got buffed up and had to log out to a chat room, since mana regen was so slow, so the raid probably was going on over 8 hours.

Anyway, finally got all 7 or 8 corpses back and rezzed by 3am, got up about 3 hours later for work.

Good times, right?

From Live:

The Hole opens. I levi over the hole, zone in, die from falling.
/ all necro until I can find someone with the corpse summon spell, which was still relatively new.
Finally find one, finally get a coffin, whoops need a key.
Get necro into the hole, he summons his first corpse ever.
Only took 4-5 hours!

Veeshan's Peak
Fighting at the zone in pad for spells n such.
A wurm split on death, on the zone in pad, this is now his spawn point, one or both can see invis.
Hey at least it wasn't a 1500 double attack wurm.
Drama and more deaths ensue over the next several hours as more victims enter the fray.

That was the closest I ever came to losing a corpse.
