Keepers of Fortitude - Saryrn / Bertoxxulous

Hello, doing my "every so often" drop in and say hi.  Well I did head to a PVP server in WoW and levelled a hunter to 55 so far.  Kicked some horde butt, but now on break and popped back into EQ2 for a bit to see what is going on.  Next stop?  hmm maybe a little trip around EQ1 Saryrn for old times sake... I wonder if Airelyn is still alive on there?

You know I tried a PVP character on EQ2 and actually found it very exciting at times.  On WoW I haven't gone that route yet... we'll see :)

Holy crap the board is still alive! Awesome!  Glad to hear Colmir is back from the war and is ok.

Ok I gave up on games for a while, went to EQ2 with some other Keepers briefly but my computer hated it.  Couple months later got upgrades and dove back in to EQ2 levelled up to around 50 on one of my chars, was an officer in the guild I joined.  Got busy with family and work like usual so I quit yet again, then recently I decided to finally try WoW... pretty cool, nice for soloing (you are right though.. lots of kids) all the games are really lacking the umph we used to have in the old days... I don't know maybe we are just getting old :)

Miss you all, glad to hear you doing well.  Thanks Ching for keeping this site alive, that is awesome.

Happy Holidays everyone from your old Queen Nerd.

So does anyone play EQ1 anymore?  I betcha you don't have to camp for crap as long anymore :)

Anyway, hope all is well with everyone.

Miss ya'll

What is the best place to raise your mining, foresting, gathering etc.?  I am having a huge problem getting those up... I've spent hours running around Forest Ruins trying to get em rasied and they are going up so slow.

With the formation of a guild we get a guild site and forums through EQ2.

website:
//thekeepers.eq2guilds.org

it is plain right now, but we can throw up some more info and such as we go along here.

It also has some pretty nice forums if we want to use em.

If you want to see our ranking and such on the server you can view it here...

Right now we have no ranking but that will change :)

We have created "The Keepers" on the Highkeep server this evening.

Sorry guys I crashed when we zoned from SQ to NQ and had to relog the comp.  Until I get more memory I think I'll focus on Tradeskilling a bit :)

Current lineup is:

Kazaba
Lowpan (formerly Saiferus)
Myrran
Aristides (formerly Ronik)
Merc (formerly Slams)
Lourdos
Yampus
Ayre (formerly Airelyn)

I think that is it for now... sorry if I missed anyone.

WOOT FOR THE KEEPERS!

If any ex-keepers want to join up just see any of us for an invite :)

BTW if anyone wants more info on the guild system for EQ2 go here:

I'm still trying to get my gathering/mining/forestery etc etc skills up... anyone have any advice or good places to get this skill up?  I'm constantly fighting to find roots and such.

I want to start harvesting Antonica but alas I still need like 25 points in each thing.

I have some silver Kaz so I'll bring what I have... Im sure between six of us we can all pitch in 10 or so.  I'll be on at 10est, see you all there :)

Well 10 would be better for me if you want to wait Kaz?

I will try my darndest to be there in QH at that time.  Prolly only be able to pop on get tagged and go but I will try to be there... see ya then.

My new name is Ayre :)

Ok you EQ2'rs... any good advice on how to make some decent money in this game?  I am questing as much as I can but because of the lag I have a hard time doing quests that involve alot of different zones.  (everytime I zone my lag gets progressivly worse).  Anyway, what are really good ways to make some money... I am going to try my hand at being a Artisan after i make Aire and see if that helps.

Any advice would be great... Thanks!

Kaz, just let me know when I need to be around for this.  I am lagged out bad so if we could do it in a place that is not too laggy that would be great (i.e. South Qeynos).

I tend to be around during the day CST (during the week) for the most part, and I am making Airelyn on Monday... I was dinking around with other characters to get a feel for what i wanted to do but I feel pretty confident I know what I want now :)

Only problem is I am poor right now... I'll try to save as much as I can.

Is it really 6 gold?  I have never had more then 10 silver at once before ::duck::

Cool I will give that a shot, thanks guys :hugs:

Lag is seriously so bad for me I can't even play :(  The only zones I can handle are like baubbleshire and forest ruins... forget about antonica.

I am trying to figure out why it is so bad... I have all my graphics turned all the way down, I defragged my drive, I double checked my spyware and viruses etc etc and it is still aweful.

have a Geforce 128mb 5900xt
512mb ram
p4 2.4 ghz

Any ideas?
