What is the new race good at? Casting, fighting, etc

Post by **Martrae** » Sat Nov 04, 2006 1:27 pm

Their racial trait is Fae Fall...they can't take falling damage at all (unless on a mount).

Starting stats are
str 10
sta 10
agi 30
int 25
wis 25

Casting seems to be their "thing". They are tiny and the wing customization is really nice. You CAN make a somewhat evil looking Fae, btw.

i'm tempted to try it, but there's not much chance I"d pay to try it

mmo's need to figure it out. $5 software + free month then start charging, or something

Can only visit the newbie isle but will give you a feel for the game.

One of my biggest gripes with EQ2 is how they group all the mobs together. So if you pull one, you end up pulling 7 or 8 or however many are in that group. That's pretty lame. In fact, it's very lame.

I'm giving it another shot. Downloading now. If anybody else is doing the trial just for fun, look for Sygma in the game.

I don't really care for this either...but if you think about it EQ was the same only you couldn't tell which were linked and which weren't. I personally liked the 'surprise' factor of EQ rather than knowing how many you'd get.

there wasn't a whole lot of mobs in EQ that were hard linked

most just reacted to social agro

You did something very, very wrong. In 10 months I collected 70 purples, just on my main. Gear in WoW is a jokesauce.

My biggest gripe with EQ2, other than the linked pulls, was that gear ment very little, and weapons didn't effect your special abilities. The biggest factor was what "rank" your move was, adept, master, etc. When I get a new dagger, I want my backstab to do more damage, not rely on skill increases for EVERYTHING. Maybe they've changed it since then, but man was that gay having upgrades barely effect your character at all.

Also, I have a EQ2 account with a 33 bruiser on Blackburrow along with a EQ1 account that has a 67 ranger with his archery AAs for 75 bucks if some one is interested ! Worth it for the expansions alone ^_~

Ok, I just downloaded Trial of the Isles. What's a good server to pick? Also, I picked the "Good" side.

So, which server?

Vox (Exc)(PvP)
Venekor (RP)(PvP)
Najena
Permafrost
Unrest
The Bazaar (Exc)
Oasis
Mistmoore
Kithicor
Blackburrow
Everfrost
Befallen
Lucan D'Lere (RP)
Butcherblock
Guk
Nektulos

I'm opting for Vox or Venekor because I like PvP, but I'll go where you guys are. I made a high elf Warlock.
