Eq2 GoldEverquest 2 Gold News

This is for 10+ scholars,outfitters, and craftsmen.

I am a weaponsmith whose main skill is metalworking. To make the best weapons obviously I will need to get this skill maxed out, but crafting on even+ items this can take a very long time.

When you choose your artisan class you get a second set of reactions/buffs for each of the stations associated with your craft. What you need to do is make an item that is just above trivial and spam all 3 of your tier2 abilites on it, and watch the skill points fly. You will be able to tell which are you tier 2 reactions because they are colored label like the rest of your gear.

In this week's episode of EQual Perspectives, Troy, Karen and Bill have several shout-outs to friends and guildies. They then talk about the crazy and wildly funny website Zero Punctuation, and end the segment imploring people to write Bill, with fan or hate mail. Troy then relates his many stories of GDC with snippets about Age of Conan, Requiem Bloodmare, and the Chronicles of Spellborne — also, Troy tells of his fortune of having dinner with Scott Hartsman and Alan Crosby. Karen, Troy and Bill then talk of the announcement of Vivox joining forces with Sony to implement VOIP through their virtual worlds. The show wraps up with a thinly veiled discussion of, if the crew were mad MMO scientists what new additions would they bring to life — which really translates into what they want in the next Everquest II expansion!

EQual Perspectives #7
Welcome to the new EQual Perspectives with you returning host Troy, and with his new official cohost Karen. The duo tackled Vanguard for more than 8 episodes of the Voyages of Vanguard and now they are together again with EQual Perspectives. This week show has been in the making for more than three weeks and shows its age during the news segment of the show, but with the holiday season around it was a bit difficult to put the show together.

Karen talks about her 70th level monk character; while Troy talks about his dozen toons and laments on his hectic approach on trying to keep all his characters with top notch spell and gear. The two talk about getting back into the game, and revel in the newest expansion Rise of Kunark. This episode is about getting up to speed in Everquest II and what both want to accomplish.

Everquest II news is a bit dated but most of the events are still going on for the next several days: Rejoice! Karen talks about all the holiday fun, while Troy bemoans his boredom to the whole holiday quest.

We also welcome Beau Turkey onto EQual Perspectives and he delights us with his talks of collecting.

EQual Perspectives #6
Part Two of the Two Part Special show on Everquest

Part two of the show finds Eric and Troy giving a basic walk through of the first four tutorials in Legends of Norrath. They talk about their experience with the card game, sometimes finding fault with the concept and implementation of the game, but ending in a resounding confirmation that its a fun and challenging new aspect of the Everquest experience. Come along and listen to the guys as they rant and rave about their favorite MMO game!

This week Eric, Joe, and Troy continue with this discussion on Everquest and Everquest II. Eric and Troy first talk about the news of Everquest, followed by information of Legends Of Norrath. the two continue with discussion of progressive servers and ideas of creating new servers to attract more players, and talk of flagging for the Frost Crypt and Timeworm Leggings and other uber gear. Eric describes his quest for the Warp Portal Necklace and ends with tactics for solo, grouping, and raiding. Eric and Troy talk about the Hot Zones, for Everquest. Eric wraps things up with his rants of server patches and a way to detail flagging. Joe and Troy talk about Everquest II (starting at 1 hour and 7 minutes into the program) and continue their tales with Bullywug and Lillipad. Later, the two decide to re-roll their characters and make a pair of ratonga in the new starting city of Nariak. This time around they play a bruiser and a defiler and regain quickly the levels they lost from the re-roll.

Corrections:

In the show we refer to a website as www.eqinterfase.com, but it should be www.eqinterface.com

Station Pass is thirty dollars a month, not twenty-five that I reported in the show

Troy and Karen return for episode number 9 of EQual Perspectives. After a mysterious introduction, the duo talk about their sponsor: www.mmotreasurehunt.com. Troy then thanks Beau Turkey for his great segments that he keeps sending in. The hosts then tackle a slew of email, with a special one from Grimwell! Troy and Karen often think of being mad MMO scientists, and what MMOstien would they create? Troy is happy to announce that there is a good base of listener to the show, and he looks forward to increasing the listeners of the show.

Karen and Troy then tackle two big subjects for the show: Contents & Group and Everquest 2 Epics. The two each have their own opinions on what can be done to increase grouping and what would be the best line of epic gear for the game.

Finally, Beau Turkey talks about his problem — too many alts!

Listen and enjoy.

After a bit of an absence, the guys are back with a two part, special episode talking about Everquest. In the first part, Joe and Troy talk about creating new characters for Everquest 2, finding it very difficult to settle on one class over another. What will they ultimately decide to play?

They talk about their experience with the card game, sometimes finding fault with the concept and implementation of the game, but ending in a resounding confirmation that its a fun and challenging new aspect of the Everquest experience.
