Everquest 2 Desert of Flames

I dunno whether you guys track anywhere outside of World of Warcraft, but the expansion to EQ2 just came out (Desert of Flames or something) and it's a standalone game. It includes EQ2, plus more stuff in it. It's about $50 and then $20 a month (Australian dollars). When you buy the game, you get a free 7 day trial for a friend (which is what I'm using right now). The game seems up to good standards, but it's a bit of a resource hog.

If anyone else plays this, my ingame name is Phwoar and I am a Good Half-Elf (currently level 9) in Highkeep.

Yep, me too.

Name:Battlinard
Server:Najena
15th Level Crusader on way to Paladin at 20th level.

Eqaddik (Chris) and I have played a bit, but because I am still low level, it's difficult at this stage.

I am doing crafting so if you join Najena, I will be able to make you some good low level stuff to get you going.

9th level is a couple of hours work so you should join Najena. I am an Outfitter and so specialise in Weapons and Armour, so if you make a tank toon, I will be able to kit you out with good stuff up until you are about 15th level.

You would get to a level pretty quickly where it would be worth us adventuring together.

[email]battlinard@hotmail.com[/email] for my messenger.

If we got enough we could make our own Darwin guild... just a thought.

There are two copies of Everquest 2 installed here at Velocity Gaming.

Will do you a cheap hourly rate if you come and play Everquest with me.

Here is a rare look at some of the private moments that Eqaddik and I share while playing Everquest...

It is touching how much our toons care about each other...

Are there game time cards available for this game? If so I might be interested in starting to play... only catch is I'd only ever be able to play at velocity (until I can afford a new pc) :D

Ah gasming. I used to gasm quite a bit as a youngster.

Just don't seem to have the time for good hard gasm these days.

Sigh.

I have been trying to track down Sony Online Gaming Cards in Australia. (What you need for Everquest II).

They seem hard to get!

It is $23.00AU a month to play, but cheaper per month if you buy more months at once.

If you want one/more Jamie, just let me know.

I will start a new Cleric if you want to start playing. What do you like playing? Ranged Combat? Melee? Blastee Magic? Having a "pet" fight for you? Healing and Buffing a party?

Tanking's probably easiest to start with.

My Crusader can make good low level items.

Post 14

I know I should start with a melee char but I love Ranged and having pets :D Is there a class specific to me?

Ranged Hunter :D

And yes I'll take one card if you get some! I really want to play soon!!! Will you be ordering a few and keeping some stock?

Post 15

Haha well I have the actual game now. Got it for Christmas - best Christmas present I got. I am now level 19 :) It'll be a while til I start a new character, can I have characters on different servers though?

My suggestion to u, is restart on najena, that way i and batt cna help u out alot more, and for the fact its the un-official aussie server, where just about every guild/raid guils is part aussie/full aussie. but alas its ur choice :) and yes, u can make upto 8 characters, and each of them can be on a completely different server..

Hope tp see u in there some time in teh future :D

Hmm, to me u sound like..a Ranger! lol, there DPS (damage per second) in mele combat is pretty dman good, but ther ereal DPS can and does come from Bows, ther efor mele/range character = ranger would be the sugestion here, but if u get the agro, and ur fighting a mob a couple lvls higher then u, say good bye :) ranger do not get pets how ever, if u wnat to be a pet class, go either a conjurer or necromancer, if u wnat to be pure DPS go a wizard for castrers, and dirge/assasin for mele dps.

Just a lil info, ask em if ya wnat more :D

Post 18

I think i'll definately have a ranger as they are definately one of my favs. I was reading the site though and to start I might just become a fighter and eventually make my way up to Guardian :) Defensive style sounds like me and that is a wicked label to have :D Jamie the Guardian HAHAHA!

Now we just need Jamie to get playing!
