Thanks to the holiday, i had a lot of time to get some leveling done in WoW. It didn’t take me long to obliterate my previous high level of 8. It must have taken some serious dedication to get up to that stratospheric level a few years ago. All jokes aside, i actually stuck with it this time and managed
Read moreAt one point i considered myself the biggest anti WoW advocate there was, despite never giving the game a chance. It was around three years ago that i was talked into giving the free trial a go for the first time but i could never get over the art style. I’ve always preferred the eastern art direction to MMO’s and
Read moreI’ve been running the Nexus Core advanced solo for about a week now. It seems to be the zone that drops weapons, among other items of course. What I’ve been trying to acquire is a sword or great sword upgrade of some kind. As per my typical luck, or lack there of, I’ve been cursed with bow after bow after
Read moreWith winter beta around the corner, i figured i’d start talking about Wildstar a little more. By that i mean talking about it at all of course. I planned on being pretty quiet about it until i actually got a chance to play and see if my interest continued. What the hell though! My initial reaction was fairly negative right
Read moreIt’s official. I’m now a Shadowknight Samurai after completing the new armor quest chain in Vesspyr Isles. That along with my katana pushes me over the top of ridiculousness. I love it though so all is good. Speaking of ridiculous – the stat explosion in this expansion is just that. I went from 70,000 HP to close to 400,000 in
Read moreTuesday marked the release of EQ2’s 10th expansion – Tears of Veeshan. With it came a ridiculous amount of changes to stats along with more stat explosion. The list of new stuff is too long to list here so I’ll just mention the core features. Full info can be found here. New class – Channeler New Dragon-themed AAs AA limit
Read moreYes yes yes technically they’re called cloaks but, let’s be honest, these are capes. LOTRO has the actual cloaks covered while EQ2 has the hoodless cloaks, or capes. Either way, i love both and make it a habit of collecting as many variations as i can. Sure it may kill my inventory and bag space but i could care less
Read moreAfter 30 days of accumulating daily reward tokens, i had enough to blow on a bunch of interesting items. My options were between a few large capacity bags, the seven year veteran reward prestige home, and a selection of flying disc mounts. There were a lot of other options but none i really even considered. It took everything within me
Read moreContinuing on with my advanced solo rounds brings me to Throne of Fear. Imps, eyeballs, and my mercenary being his typical useful self. By that of course i mean being completely useless as only they can. I’m starting to notice their lacking as the levels get beyond 90 but at least they bring some comedy relief once in a while.
Read moreAnother day and another advanced solo under my belt. This time i ventured into the Sleeper’s Tomb instance and i now can see why most people don’t farm this one for loot. Being my first attempt, as well as not being max level, really slowed down my completion time dramatically. I was making pretty decent time until i hit the
Read moreThanks to an extremely fun and sometimes crazy Skyshrine group, i managed to hit 95 on my Shadowknight. This makes my first ever max level character of any kind in EQ2. Despite my actual account being over four years old, i never managed to hit cap at any time. This was mostly due to other MMO’s i was involved in
Read moreSome days i can’t help but stare at my little Raptr widget on the front page of this blog and shake my head. It plain disgusts me sometimes, and not because of the ridiculous hours i put into MMO’s. It’s a hobby and i enjoy the genre along with all the games i play. What annoys me more than anything
