General Topics / The "incident" in CoM
May 02, 2003, 12:32:56 AM
Last night we raided CoM to obtain the last two pieces for Sey's epic. First part is kill a black reaver on the skyway who pops Neh for a turn in. Well due to the "fixed" pathing this stupid reaver now falls through the trap in the floor of his house when you pull him. Thus when Uno pulled him he fell down to the temple where a group of uber assholes (UAs) were farming.
The UA's names are Reltor, Stroke, Blitzing, and Ningirsu. You may recognize their names from previous trips to CoM as they seem to never leave the zone.
When the reaver fell Uno jumped down after it. The UAs were killing the reaver no biggie (although yes that means they were KSing us as Uno had already engagged the mob) we don't need the reaver we need Neh. Uno says hey sorry he dropped on your head but he fell through the trap in his house, he spawns Neh please don't kill Neh we need to do a turn in for our shammy's epic. They say fine. So the whole raid Lev's and jumps down and makes its way to the temple.
We get there and the UA's have started killing Neh. Naturally everyone freaks and tries to get them to stop. Then one of them sends Sey a tell "gives us 2k plat or we'll kill him."
Sey informs us of their extortion and naturally everyone freaks. I want to commend everyone for not training them or otherwise using bannable tactics to exact revenge against these UAs. I know we were all wanting their blood when Neh dropped to the ground and the UAs informed us what he dropped and then camped out like cowards.
I know what you're thinking. Why didn't we just pay the plat and let poor Sey do his turn in? First of all who the hell brings 2k to CoM? Second and most important:
Keepers of Fortitude WILL NOT pay extotionists.
If people pay the UAs they get away with this disgusting behaviour and they will keep doing it. If people don't pay they get nothing but the satisfaction of winding up on people's /ignore lists and gaining reputations as UAs and will hopefully :rolleyes:stop doing it.
Needless to say we petitioned and Sey /reported. The GM who spoke to Sey said he will be escalating his petition which hopefully means they will all be banned. Don't hold your breath though becasue as we all know SoE isn't really interested in keeping its customers happy or policing UAs.
I am posting this in the public area of our forums becasue I want others to beware of these UAs. Reltor, Stroke, Blitzing, and Ningirsu. /guildstatus revealed they are all unguilded however they could have simply /guildremove while the rest of us were heading over to the temple. I am tempted to also post this story in other forums but as I rarely post in other areas it would look like a troll so I won't. I really really want to though ;)
The story does have a happy ending however. After the UAs camped we went back into the temple to camp reavers while we waited the three hours for Neh's reaver to pop (we got two btw gratz Tulain and Mystwyrd). When the reaver popped we went back up and pulled him again (yes he fell through the trap again) after he ran up to us we killed him Neh poped and Sey did his turn in. We then went back down found rak did turn in killed rak and poof Sey is epic. :)
Gratz Sey, Tulain and Mystwyrd.
Gratz to everyone for sticking together and keeping cool heads when forced to deal with UAs and their extortion.

General Topics / Maps
April 11, 2003, 10:51:56 PM
Those who have purchased the LoY expansion now have a cartography system in game. Maps for this are available at http://maps.eq-toolbox.com/ and at
You simply download the files and put them into your maps folder in your everquest folder. Some maps are locked. You can download them and once you've completed the quest to unlock maps you'll be able to view them. Plane of Fear and ToV are examples of locked maps.
This is a great tool for people (like me) who are constantly getting lost and are tired of having others lead them everywhere. Play around with the mapping tools. Add lables for your favorite camps or draw lines of the best routes through zones.
Some maps are better then others. For instance on the page linked first you can download all the maps in one zipped file. However the map of the Plane of Disease in this package is incomplete. On the same page there is a complete map which you can download from the list. You can also view thumbmails of the maps.
Search the web there are other maps available for download.

General Topics / Cakewalk in City of Mist
April 09, 2003, 05:26:24 AM
Today we had an eleven hour raid on the City of Mist. This was unplanned and no rap was given so don't feel bad if you missed it.
First we arrived and teamed up with another guild who was about to farm reavers. We established a looting order for Jade Reavers and got down to work. Whoo Hoo Lani and Aala have arrived we can try to kill Rak without facing certain doom doom DOOM.
Rak finally pops 10 pets and a few deaths later (I told you guys to back up ;) ) Rak Dies whoo hoo get Targonne a Rez he's about to be epic!
After some reorganization we move on to the skyway. Woot a cleric has finally logged on no more 75% rezzes (no offence Odi we love ya you're a great pally) After a few death (we told you not to open that door) whoo hoo another reaver dies and one of the cheap jerks finaly drops a JR. Gratz guest ranger Leg :) .
Check track whoo hoo Wraith of Jaxion is up, he's pulled, he's charmed oops he's dead! Gratz Fiz only one piece left!
Another reaver pops, he dies, no JR grrr but whooo hoo! Neh pops. Oops he's dead. Gratz Frostta only one piece left. Neh also drops a nice shield gratz Lay! (we made her bring her rouge but let her roll on the shield anyway).
All done up here lets go back down. Ack! Fizz and Douv LD forever curse their ISP! a billion hours later they're back and we all jump down!
More reavers die! None of the cheap jerks drop a JR. Myst has a quiet moment in a corner. Whoo Hooo Rak Pops! No deaths this time oops nope Frost goes down in the last few seconds along with Rak. Get that man a 96% rez he's about to be epic!
Everyone's tired but we decide to stay a little longer to get a stinking JR for Myst. Many die but they're all stingy :( Finally at 11 pm after 11 hours we call it.
Great job everyone we had a really good time and did really well. Still need to go back and do Neh and Rak again for Rik and get some stinking JRs :)
Big Gratz to Targonne and Frostta they are Epic! And thanks everyone for you're help I'm poised on the brink of snake stick.
