I want to see how far I can get using some of the old trash gear from quests. I'll still help out my druid with my paladin giving her better gear. She kind of looks like Lara Croft too.
They became a little more generous with newbie gear as more expansions were released. Though it had gotten to the point where you could farm silks or pelts for an hour or so and afford a few pieces of vendor trash which would last you until 30 or so.
Is this EQ official or Project 99, or another private server? All these EQ posts of yours are awakening something in me.
Playing on the live servers on a free account. The newbie gear in the later expansions is like end game tier for base game and the first few expansions it's crazy. Now's a good time to play, Firiona Vie the server I play on has at least 400 people on at all times, probably little over a thousand overall. Plus there's private servers like Project 1999.
