my story

[Supaskillz]

So when I was in 8th grade a few months after EQ came out me and a few of my friends got into the game. Once we were up around lvl 20 my friend and I came across a necro soloing guards. Naturally my friend and I were amazed that someone was able to kill the almighty guards to whom I would run when fearing death was imminent. We talked with him and he was friendly and patient with our ignorance. After a few weeks this guy actually let us use his account while he was out of town. In our limited knowledge of the game SSoY was about the best thing that one can have in EQ and worth an enormous EQ fortune! So friday night when we were able to use this guys necro my 3 friends and I all went to one of my friends house for a "ykesha party" where we were determined to not sleep and get a Ykesha. We discovered that in order to get into a group to get one of these we had to get on a list. Done. Several hours later it was our turn! ok, well we are noobs and anything past qeynos hills is scary so... please person who invited us to the group give me detailed instructions on how to get there. Well we made it, can almost taste that ykesha! Well one of my friends had a lvl 16 necro so naturally we knew all the ins and outs of how to play a necro, and despite this extensive knowledge we managed to not kill the group. However morning rolled around and we had no ykeshas, in fact no one in our group all night ever got one. Two of my friends fell asleep. Ykesha party fail. Back to saving my rat teeth for that stien of moggok I saw for sale in west karana.

I was playing on live, PoP era. At this time I was in college and just logged on to do whatever. In PoK I'm sitting around and I see a tell, something along the lines of "Sondria says out of character 'can anyone help me get my corpse out of the greater divide?'" I think about it and figure what the heck I'm not doing much. so I send a tell "whereabouts did you die in GD?"

I almost immediately get a reply like Sondria says "I take your **** in my mouth and gently massage your ***sack, I feel you growing bigger and warmer in my mouth. I can't wait to take it all"

I lol'd at this point. She(he?) then sends another "oops mt!" and that was about the end of that.

Later on I finally saw the character sitting around chatting (as well as being flirty with emotes and all that) with a monk. She informs the monk in tells that her daddy is out buying her a new computer chair because she broke the old one...

I never did help her get her corpse back.

I probably shouldn't tell this story, but I'm only level 8 and it's worth the risk for 10kpp.

A friend and I, being veterans of EQ since 1999, and bored with POP that had just come out, we ventured out to start hacking EQ.

We found that it (was) possible to prevent the EQ client from consuming the ammo when thrown/shot etc. So, we made a berserker, and got one of those thrown weapons that has 0 delay. (I forget the name of the item, but it is really rare or lore or something, so they're not overpowered in live)

Since we had 0 delay, we could throw as rapidly as we could send packets to the server.

We programmed our own /throw command with a parameter for how many times we wanted to throw. We made it so that we could queue it up, too by targeting mobs one at a time and executing the command. Kiting 20 mobs at once in Plane of Nightmare? No sweat.

So, the story is: We could solo just about anything that couldn't kill us in two hits. It didn't matter if it summoned. See screenshots in the link below. Terris Thule was our biggest accomplishment in cheating, but we also solo'd Yelinak, Overking, WW dragons, Zlandicar, etc. Note: On the Terris-Thule screenshot, you don't see the killing blow because we had to camp out to drop aggro from the approaching gargoyles.

Disclaimer: The exploit was fixed (unintentionally) by a separate patch. I don't have contact with him anymore and I personally don't do any sort of hacking as I don't have time (work full time programming). So, developers/moderators: don't suspect me of cheating in p99. I'm clean. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] Also, he gets almost all of the credit as the programmer at that time. I was just an idea generator.

remember when in velious there was some orb that had no cast time. All monks for a while were using it to spam 6 dmg or whatever it did. Was of course fixed the next day or two. It was fun while it lasted.

CrotchCricket, your story makes me want to come kill you repeatedly at your bind point.

I have a few stories:

1) I was a female monk on live, and while I never leveled into uberness, there were these three other female monks I used to hunt with on a regular basis before i quit playing.

Two of them were supposed to be twin sisters and another was just another female. We would hunt and talk into the wee hours about ALL the intricate female secrets; guys, blowjobs, menstrual cycles, love, hate, body parts, etc. I was a 21 year old so I was naive as well.

As you may have guessed already, after I quit, i still frequented the server forums and one day, i came across the real life thread and saw that those three ladies were not ladies at all. The twins were one fat ugy bald guy and the other lady was a skinny little kid.I never went back to that server after that!


2) This one happened to someone else and will be faithfully re-told by me;

He got a Lamentation during his first week of EQ Live. He said "WTF, I'm a caster! I can't use this shit!" and promptly sold it to a vendor! Later on, he found out that they go for huge amounts of plat, especially at that time, and remembers it to this day to tell me about it the other day.



3) On my first day of EQ (first week that EQ came out), I created a wood elf druid and started "talking" to NPCs.. thinking they were real people since this was the first MMORPG i've been exposed to and thought that everyone was a player. I got way too pissed off that people are not nice and logged off, canceled the subscription, and not coming back for at least another six months when my bf at the time explained to me how MMORPGs worked. Then, came back, created a Barbarian shaman, then promptly falling into the well at Halas within a minute of character creation.

Hope I win!!!!

On Live, I played a WIZ on Tallon Zek in the guild Knights of the White Rose. We were pretty casual ala Vesica Dei on P99. Occasionally we stepped up our game, but for the most part we played for fun and friends etc.

The only bad thing about that was that only a handful of people in the guild were avid PvPers......but I was one of them. I usually went solo, and as a WIZ, built up a solid reputation. I regularly killed all the big names on the server up till about PoP, but never talked shit or posted on the Server Forums so kept myself under the radar. People knew me, but it wasn't like I had any fame or anything cuz like I said - I was pretty cordial about the PvP (shit, I would kill people in LGuk then go pick them up and port them back to SRo to help with CR). People tend to remember the loudmouths more, regardless of skill.

The proudest moments for me all came when I consistently beat the #1 WIZ on the server, Lightadam. Him being L60, and myself being L54.
T
he absolute best PvP battle was against Lightadam and a L54 CLR Synnovea (think Tralina with bigger tits). I was in Skyfire at the BW zoneline and saw they had just zoned in (on Zek servers you CONSTANTLY would /who the zone for updates on who is in zone).....which meant they were prolly comin from the WIZ port in. So I caught them halfway and went for Synn first. After dropping a Lure I dropped a Rain spell (rains were effective against healers if they had bad resists becuz it would allow you to do another Lure in the time it was still doing damage). So Lure/Rain/Lure and she was dead. Meanwhile, true to form, Lightadam tossed out a pair of Sunstrikes. The first one hit me pretty hard, but I resisted the 2nd one. After Synn was dead I popped a charge on my Soulfire (yes I did the Soulfire quest as a WIZ for the CH in PvP), then proceeded to Lure him down for the kill.

I sent him a /tell "nice fight", to which he simply replied "fuck you". I loved killing him more than anyone else lol.

Altho Darkoan was fun too heh (any TZers will know he would rage on you if you beat him lol).

Lol I totally remember that day Ace!

I as well was on Tallon Zek. I played a High Elf Paladin also in Knights. Many great PvP moments.

One of the greatest kills(well I would have one) was Telen. Human SK who would rock entire groups. Using my trusty Earthshaker, in the entrance of VL shortly after they made it so you couldn't cast through the walls me and him were going at it one-on-one.

Being a Paladin(52ish) vs SK(60) its always a debate on when to use LH/HT...well I won that one, manage to keep enough HP to survive HT then hit LH myself. I had him just about down to 10% with me being nearly full when some stupid dorf came strolling along. The guy just stood there attacking Telen head on getting Lifetapped, 30seconds later Telen was full HP =(

However afterwards me and him talked and he said that was one of the better fights he had in a long time, coming from him that was pretty good praise for a lowly Paladin

One of my other great moments was being leader of Knights lower guild, Squires of the White Rose. Because we took pretty much anyone on the light side my initiation was pretty simple. Get your character drunk off his arse and run to Nek forest zoneline and beat the crap out of darkies...or more than likely die but have fun doing it =P
