MSG me on here or in game

Your main focus atm should be exp before Memorial Day weekend run out tho

[Byue]

absolutely like gear is very easy to get, just exp rapidly while it is very easy.


lvl 47.

Tonight, I got 14 levels, smr, peggy cloak, ring of the ancient, golden chitin bracer x2, driftwood treasure chest, large soiled bag, braided cinch cord, moonstone ring of value to me.


but also, a 40 slot bag full of mid to high end items. like 1 fbss. all of that exp'ing @ royals.
obviously, right now, we got 50% extra exp plus pots that were free, and rare mobs also spawn 50% more so it will change a bit but still.

plus if they do something similar for july 4th you also set for kunark.

I was able to like half assedly play like 1 hr yesterday.

Keep up with the good work all. This is imo the only way to relive nostalgic EQ times. We are too old to grind eternally.

Some things I've noticed about the TLP playerbase (that I also noticed the short time I played on Green):

1. They are bad at the game. Holy shit the amount of druids, clerics, and other casters who will just let shit beat on them as they stand there healing themselves, or run around ineffectually, is astonishing. These aren't the sweatlord pros I know from blue. People building groups in stupid spots with stupid, ineffectual comps. I'm no radical min/maxer, hell, I play a ranger, but having played EQ on and off for 20 years it hurts me to see this in my groups sometimes.

2. Terrible social skills. Very clear many of the people I come across have some kind of retardation and/or haven't left the house since the 90's. Some tantrums over loot, lots of quiet folk who barely speak up even when directly addressed.

3. Cash shop. They love it.

That said, it's been fun so far and I've had some fun groups

I think a lot of people are playing on x box which is why they may try to buff you, but they won’t really say anything even when approached personally.

Tbh this sounds so boring. Part of the magic of EQ is the difficulty. This just seems like modern MMOs

You are playing with a lot of bots. If a dude just stands there and gets beat or repeatedly sits after pulling aggro over and over again you’re not playing with a real human player. That’s also why they never respond.

There are problems with the community, but I find the average TLP player to be more skilled than the average P99 player. The game itself is harder than P99. P99 is just grindier. Like when I buff my group on P99 I buff everyone at one time and don’t worry about it for a couple of hours. On TLP I don’t have enough mana to do that, so I’m constantly trying to slowly buff and maintain buffs on multiple players while also trying to save enough mana to heal and I regularly have to CC, dispel mobs, stun, cure poison/disease every single pull — something far less common on P99 — also dying is super common — my cleric on p99 never dies between two barriers and lower mob AI where you drop all aggro super easy and root is broken OP and never resists or breaks.

There’s not nearly as many chanters and it’s completely normal for players to CC 5 mobs in compact spaces using nothing but Root or Necromancer mez or Bard charm... P99 players would never even attempt this, if they don’t get an enchanter they just give up.

Also I would say people on TLP communicate way more if they aren’t bots..I’ve been in Discord calls with almost every single group I’ve had.. this never happened, not even once on P99...


The biggest problem I’ve had so far is people being blatantly greedy. For instance almost every group I’ve been in has a group leader who decides to give himself loot because he needs it, but doesn’t apply the same logic to others in the group. For instance a Shaman earlier awarded himself 5 pieces of Totemic, including the helmet and a darksea harpoon because they are Shaman only... but then when abalone gorget and adamantite epaulets drop, and I’m the only Cleric... nah, time to greed roll. Had a Ranger do the same thing with Granite bracers, and then when Runed Mithril Bracers drop and I NEED them, nah, greed roll... same dude took a mithril breastplate and then took a brigantine tunic 5 minutes later... and then when the bard wants another brig tunic that drops.. same guy insists on greed roll...this isn’t like rare occurrences either, every group I’ve been in has been like this and people tolerate it because they want to level while exp is still fast but you can tell everyone silently hates it.

Also saw a Druid win a thick banded belt and then curse a rogue out for not giving the Druid black chitin leggings that dropped...like wtf lol

Look forward to getting a guild with people I like playing with because so far I kind of hate a lot of people and have already started a shut list of people I won’t group with.

Edit those of us who hit 50 super fast may be much more skilled and competitive than those who are still level 30... maybe there are legit bads down there, but I feel like I’m playing with ultra competitive people..

[starkind]

just roll need on everything lol

i don't think people have a clue how to deal with the free trade shit tho lol

[Jimjam]

/agree I need all that vendor trash so i can make a forged targ shield.
