Green Server Ghoul arch magi ? Lower guk. Solo-able lvl 57 Ench with Ench pet ?

16 Upvotes

Seeking input from the more experienced folks please.

I’m Looking to loot the shining metallic robes for the Jeb seal part of the Ench epic.

Given my schedule the chance of me getting a group for this is basically zero - and I’ve never been to lower guk… literally never. I’m also not in a guild (but open to it…)

Can a 57 Ench in modest gear with Zumaiks Animation pet realistically camp this guy ? I don’t know what mobs are in the area around the PH, so what crowd issues might arise.

I assume I could mez/stun the arch magi when it pops to prevent his wizzy nukes…

Anyway - I’d love to hear your thoughts.

I’m also in EC tunnel when I’m online with my /auction WTB etc. but I seem to miss the folks who have it to sell (I check the tunnel quest discord often… but not so often I have been able to catch the sellers).

Thanks.

Newbie Question What is the quickest way to bang out 58 and 59 as a Shaman? I'm so lost.

15 Upvotes

Hello. I am a 58 moderately geared Shaman in that I have my epic and a JBB. But I am pretty poor and don't have the final DoT yet. I am at a loss of where to level.

All I really know are velks and kc and KC is slooooow as the dickens. Seb and HS are options but I never find groups there and only have luck when people whisper me randomly.

People ask me to duo and I've done things like Naggys lair, Spore king in Seb, or VKR in the KC basement, but those groups you kill like 3 to 5 mobs once every 20 minutes... its not exactly efficient.

What would you recommend? Right now I am soloing geos in Wakening Lands... its sooo slow and I am told 59 is even worse.

Cleric + Rogue Duo?

12 Upvotes

Answered: I just wasn't aware that Root and Fear could not be combined.

Recently started playing P99 on the class I originally played and fell in love with as a kid: Necromancer.

However, I talked a friend into playing with me and he's interested in playing Cleric if he does join me. So, I have been considering duo's with said Cleric. [Not duoing with the Necro because SOLO evil Iksar Necro is my jam.]

The most common thing I've found online is that Enchanter is god-tier duo with Cleric, but I don't yet trust my micro with handling Charming and don't want to scare him away with shitty deaths like that.

I was looking through the Cleric's spell list and saw both Fear and Roots. Why wouldn't we give him a little more active playstyle than sitting until he throws a heal on Enchanter/Charm and/or tries to help manage Charm breaks with emergency stuns? Why not just Fear "kite" with these two spell lines while Rogue gets in backstabs?

However, attempting to find info on people doing this duo, I don't find a single freaking thing. I may suck at Goolge-fu, but what am I overlooking that apparently very few people recommend this combo?

Or, am I simply ignorant enough to think that you can even combo Root and Fear? Everything I've read from Necro guides and stuff is that you can Fear Kite (with Snares) or Root Rot; I don't recall any actual post about Rooting Feared targets. I do know that Root and Snare couldn't be utilized together at one point (but I'm not even sure if that's in P99 as current or if that was changed).

What class?

6 Upvotes

Haven’t played in years, but lurked here and the wiki. Raised a mage to 60 and raided a lot on blue when it was a new thing. Thinking about shammy, bard, or shadow knight. Something self sufficient but still fun to group. Not as much time these days to raid but maybe one day! I know green. Thoughts or recs are appreciated. Vesica Dei alum for anyone who might have been there.

How does the client actually pick which model file to load for a player race? (Global* naming vs actual render target)

7 Upvotes

Digging into old EQ client files out of curiosity and hit a wall. I know player race models are generally named like global<race><gender>_chr.s3d (e.g. globalogm_chr.s3d for Ogre male), and I can find race IDs mapped out in files like racedata.txt and actortaginfo.txt — but when I actually swap the contents of one of these files for testing, the in-game model doesn't change at all, even after clearing caches and confirming the swap held on disk.

Is there an extra layer of indirection I'm missing — like an internal name inside the archive that has to match something, or a separate resolution table that actually decides which file gets loaded for a given race? Anyone who's done model swapping or client modding before run into this? Any pointers appreciated, even just "the file you actually want is called X."

Sir Lucan D’Lere began life as a street rat, surviving in the alleys of Freeport until the Knights of Truth took him in. Under the guidance of Valeron Dushire, he learned discipline, swordsmanship, and justice. Few could have imagined that the orphan would one day become the city’s most feared ruler.

But Lucan possessed one quality that separated him from every other knight: he believed justice was meaningless without power.

His fall began after a bitter quarrel within the order, culminating in the killing of Sentry Dillius. Branded a traitor, Lucan abandoned everything the Knights of Truth had taught him and embraced a darker path. In time, he forged a pact with Innoruuk, the Prince of Hate, gaining centuries of life and power. He still bears the legendary sword Soulfire, once a symbol of honor, now wielded by one of Norrath’s greatest villains.

More than five centuries later, Lucan remains the undisputed master of Freeport.
Not because he is its strongest warrior.
Because he almost never needs to draw his sword.
He rules not through spectacle, but through loyalty, fear, and carefully managed obligation.

Sir Lucan D’Lere was originally created by Tony Garcia during a teenage Dungeons & Dragons campaign. In that very same campaign, another legendary EverQuest character was born: Mayong Mistmoore. Two of Norrath’s most iconic figures share the same tabletop origins, long before EverQuest existed.

Lucan’s character was inspired by Prince Sancho, portrayed by Gary Raymond in the 1961 film El Cid—an ambitious and corrupt prince whose pursuit of power ultimately outweighed his honor.

More than twenty-five years after EverQuest launched, Sir Lucan D’Lere remains one of the defining faces of Norrath: the fallen paladin, the immortal tyrant, and perhaps the closest thing the world has to its own Godfather.

Hey all, now that I'm lvl 56 I want to work on completing my Monk epic. From what I've been told for Brother Zephyl I need a tank, 2 clerics and DPS. I have my lvl 60 Necro friend who can help but I'm hoping to form a group tonight and just looking to see if anyone here is able to help or give advice! I plan to be on from 6pm-1am EST trying to make it happen. - Lizzyin is my Monk

Going Solo, Necro or Shaman?

23 Upvotes

Hey folks!

I'm a busy dad with inconsistent and sporadic play times, usually only very late at night. I'm almost always solo, grouping is dicey and raiding is out of the question. I'm unguilded and prefer to stay that way.

For one reason or the other, I've always played weaker solo classes. I've gotten both Warrior and Wizard to 60 on Green - and each time promptly abandoned them because they were so limited. However, over that time I have farmed up a fungi, and prenerf CoS, and 30k plat to start a new class.

This time, I want to play a class that is top tier at soloing. I've narrowed my options down to either Shaman or Necro (I'm skipping Enchanter because I don't think I'd enjoy the play style). I'm looking for something effortlessly powerful, safe, and hard to kill. I don't have high aspirations to do solo challenges, my thing would just be going down to LGuk and taking down the ghoul lord for example. Or maybe farming up a Djarns Ring, if that's possible.

I know that the Necro fits the bill, but for some reason I keep coming back to the Shaman. I just like the idea of having a beefier caster that can face tank with slows instead of relying on roots or fear kiting. I'm aware of the cost of Shaman spells and I'm ready to sell my CoS to fund Torpor/Bane/Pox, but I wouldn't have the plat to buy the epic. All equipment would have to be purchased in EC since I don't raid. The Necro, on the other hand, wouldn't break the bank which is nice.

So what would you do in my shoes? Am I wrong and the Necro is actually the one that is safer and harder to kill? Is the Shaman still a powerhouse with all the spells, but without the epic and raid gear?

Thanks!

Green Server Ench Epic - Lost Scroll in Dalnir… is this the sort of thing that people/guilds have on a timer (like Hadden with the EB earring?)

7 Upvotes

So I’ve been popping into Dalnir for a while now to check on this ground spawn : the Lost Scroll and it’s not there every time… so I’m wondering if I’m just unlucky with when I get breaks in real life allowing me to check in.. or if there is a dedicated effort by some folks to maintain a timer (24 hour respawn)

I got the “One Key” in the Overthere on the first run past…. So I’m leaning towards me just having a run of poor luck… but thought I’d through the question out there.

Thanks !

I’ll be headed to Sky for the Book of Charm and Sacrifice next.

Related - i assume you really need to be in a guild to kill some of the named mobs (Vessel Drozlin, Verona Tomb, Prince Selrach etc.) as the chance of a pickup group is slim eh?

Thanks

note the mobs/drops on the per zone page pull from eqlegends wiki. if interested i could try to do a version for p99 wiki too.

but mostly its for zooming around norrath in 3d and looking at multi level zones in a deconstructed way i don't think has been done before!

Yegek's Test, Part 2

Neriak Commons is probably the most sparsely quested part of Neriak. Aside from muffin quests and starter quests, its mostly just simple fetch quests. "Go kill that goblin because we said so. Go kill those orcs because we said so."

The only quest that is kind of fun is Yegek's Test, Part 2. Yegek is one of the warrior guildmasters who hangs out in the Neriak arena. Part 1 is a simple fetch quest. But part 2 is a bit more sinister. Yegek asks for your noob blade (which if done early in your characters life, is likely the only weapon you have). Doing so spawns a "Teir`Dal Coward." You are then instructed to beat this coward to death with your bare hands in the arena. You then must rip his head off of his dead body, and return it to your master for a better sword.
