the anti pain thingy but idk '
(1 day ago) Raptoreyes newbies, 'usually do not do jobs like that
lower levels unfortunately. and when I do is higher leveled and can
actually do the spells to find the things.'
(1 day ago) Raptoreyes newbies, 'hmm. herbalist shop of some kind
maybe?'
(1 day ago) Wolfie newbies, 'yeah looking'
(1 day ago) Raptoreyes newbies, 'maybe ask on gossip right now
since not many people responding on here. if they ask why you're not on

(1 day ago) Wolfie newbies, 'yeah i might thanks '
(1 day ago) Raptoreyes newbies, 'no problem.'
(1 day ago) Rema newbies, 'is there a place to sell what you
create?'
(1 day ago) Raptoreyes newbies, 'depends on what it is. usually
though if you make say something out of metal the place you got the
guild from will buy it.'
(1 day ago) Raptoreyes newbies, 'such as you made a pickaxe or
something. forge will usually buy it.'
(1 day ago) Raptoreyes newbies, 'go to forge for metal if that's
the case in this example and see if it says they buy weapons.'
(1 day ago) Raptoreyes newbies, 'for other stuff go to guild you
would have made it from such as wood for woodrite and tailor for
tailoring.'
(1 day ago) Raptoreyes newbies, 'or leatherworkers might buy
leather stuff. not sure at lower levels honestly.'
(1 day ago) Raptoreyes newbies, 'do not really sell back stuff I
make with crafting just use for exp and also improving skills.'
(1 day ago) Raptoreyes newbies, 'unless doing a job that is.'
(1 day ago) Gunnar newbies, 'so I picked this up again and I
haven't played seriously in years, a lot looks different. It seems like
combat is more involved too, is there info on how stun/daze/etc works
somewhere? The helpfiles are kind of vague'
(1 day ago) Raptoreyes newbies, 'stunning and dazing is really
good. hmmm let me see what I can find.'
(1 day ago) Wolfie newbies, 'are ugly weeds even a flower lol '
(1 day ago) Rema newbies, 'Woody Woodworker looks uninterested in
an ash club.'
(1 day ago) Raptoreyes newbies, 'basically says that if you stun
something it will be unable to attack. it is basically just standing
there trying to attack the air in front of it till it wears off.'
(1 day ago) Raptoreyes newbies, 'dazing is very short-lived and
kinda slows them down a bit but not much else.'
(1 day ago) Raptoreyes newbies, 'you're right the help file is
kinda vague. I play a thief warrior though on another char and that is
what it does during combat'
(1 day ago) Gunnar newbies, 'ah okay'
(1 day ago) Raptoreyes newbies, 'like I said might not actually
buy your stuff just was the best guess I had.'
(1 day ago) Gunnar newbies, 'how does it actually work, is there
a way to see how close to a stun or daze an enemy or me are?'
(1 day ago) Raptoreyes newbies, 'not that I know of. it just says
that mob name is stunned and then shows it trying to attack the air in
front of it.'
(1 day ago) Raptoreyes newbies, 'or says mob name is dazed.'
(1 day ago) Gunnar newbies, 'ah'
(1 day ago) Raptoreyes newbies, 'also has some sounds if you use
the soundpack too.'
(1 day ago) Gunnar newbies, 'I'm using the mush-z beta'
(1 day ago) Raptoreyes newbies, 'should have the sounds then.'
(1 day ago) Gunnar newbies, 'seems like the intro zones were
made way easier too, everything kind of fell over in one attack as a
warrior'
(1 day ago) Raptoreyes newbies, 'you will not be able to do it
very much right now for stunning and dazing since you are such a low
leveled warrior unfortunately.'
(1 day ago) Raptoreyes newbies, 'yeah not sure what it was like
before but intro zones are pretty easy now. even some new stuff around
if you look.'
(1 day ago) Wolfie newbies, 'i have no idea what has changed but
yes alot '
(1 day ago) Raptoreyes newbies, 'better loot too in some chests
and drops so look around as much as you can. also use search command a
lot too when you can get it since that will also help you out with
finding stuff.'
(1 day ago) Gunnar newbies, 'cool, thanks'
(1 day ago) Raptoreyes newbies, 'no problem. wish I coulda helped
more with finding weird weed thing though '
(1 day ago) Gunnar newbies, 'are the crafting skills worth it?
Seems hard to juggle spending practices on skills, stats, and crafting'
(1 day ago) Wolfie newbies, 'i usually spend one prac in those as
i can just retry '
(1 day ago) Gunnar newbies, 'oh good point'
(1 day ago) Wolfie newbies, 'depends what your primary and
secondary are though too , druids need it more i find '
(1 day ago) Raptoreyes newbies, 'they can be. some people make
chars just for crafting though. I use crafting for all my chars since
good exp from crafting.'
(1 day ago) Raptoreyes newbies, 'you can also get gold and exp
for doing crafting jobs.'
(1 day ago) Wolfie newbies, 'aparntely you can buy pracs later
for 10mil xp haha '
(1 day ago) Raptoreyes newbies, 'and yeah, you will need a
practice for crafting but do not need to put them super high unless you
want to do crafting eq and armor later.'
(1 day ago) Gunnar newbies, 'jesus that is a lot'
(1 day ago) Raptoreyes newbies, 'and honestly, unless you want a
set for more movement for exploring or for luck with crafting you don't
really need a crafted set right now'
(1 day ago) Compiler newbies, 'that's not a lot when you get to
level 35 and up'
(1 day ago) Wolfie newbies, 'it seems alot at first but its not
that much once you get out of the islands apparently '
(1 day ago) Gunnar newbies, 'ah'
(1 day ago) Raptoreyes newbies, 'crafted sets are usually better
after you are at least lv 100 total levels since you can then get more
stats onto the eq once made'
(1 day ago) Raptoreyes newbies, 'and yeah not too bad once you
can go to ralnoth later and beyond. much easier to gain exp that way
later'
(1 day ago) Raptoreyes newbies, 'but I get all crafting guilds to
apprentice before I go to gads so I have ways to get exp early.'
(1 day ago) Raptoreyes newbies, 'up to you though '
(1 day ago) Gunnar newbies, 'oh there are actually guilds now?'
(1 day ago) Wolfie newbies, 'yeah you werent kiddign you havnet

but didn't play for long'
(1 day ago) Wolfie newbies, 'yep lots has changed'
(1 day ago) Raptoreyes newbies, 'woodrite for wood stuff, rangers
for leather stuff, smiths for metal, cartography for exploring and some
useful skills, others too but those are main ones to look into early
game on the islands if you want the extra exp. '
(1 day ago) Wolfie newbies, 'type guild ,, list?'
(1 day ago) Raptoreyes newbies, 'oh and lapidary can also give
you exp too. and do jobs for guilds to get more exp and gold too if you
want.'
(1 day ago) Gunnar newbies, 'cool'
(1 day ago) Raptoreyes newbies, 'yeah. and you can mine for lots
of useful stuff now too.'
(1 day ago) Raptoreyes newbies, 'keep in mind though I wasn't
around when the game didn't have guilds but that's what I was told. all
the crafting skills used to be at very specific trainers in very
specific places and much harder to find.'
(1 day ago) Gunnar newbies, 'I do remember struggling to find
those. I have a vague memory of the cartographer's guild existing but
it didn't do much'
(1 day ago) Raptoreyes newbies, 'shrugs you can do if you want.'
(1 day ago) Raptoreyes newbies, 'will tell you about terrains and
also has climbing skill'
(1 day ago) Gunnar newbies, 'I remember climb used to be required
in a bunch of places'
(1 day ago) Raptoreyes newbies, 'cartography used to have
swimming skill but has specific trainers for that now'
(1 day ago) Wolfie newbies, 'its more a passive guild that one'
(1 day ago) Raptoreyes newbies, 'helps you travel over different
terrains and reduces movement costs I believe though.'
(1 day ago) Gunnar newbies, 'that I definitely want'
(1 day ago) Raptoreyes newbies, 'which can be good. but costs a
pretty penny early game so skip if you wish for a while.'
(1 day ago) Gunnar newbies, 'ah'
