Real life first name: Kevin
Main Character name: Kevfactor
Server: The Nameless
Guild: Although they are long broken up I'll always be a Leviathan of Stormhammer/Morden Rasp and Xanit Kven of Vallon Zek at heart.
Where in the real life world do you live? Roanoke, VA, USA
How long have you played EQ? 7 years
What other MMOs have you played? They may not count as MMOs but I played many FPSer online such as Jedi Knight Darkforces 2(was hot on the zone), Quake 2, Sin, Tribes, Alien vs Predator, and strategy games such as Starcraft.
How long is your typical gaming session when playing EQ? 4 hours
What does a typical EQ day consist of for you? Mostly raiding, sometimes group or kite.
What was the race and class of your very first character? A dark elf mage
What got you into gaming and what sort of games do you like the most? Nintendo as a kid - everyone on my street had one so I did too! Adventure, rpg and action were my favorites. Think FF7 and Mario 3 are my all time favorites.
What other hobbies or activities do you take part in, other then playing EverQuest? Console gaming, movies with friends, book series such as Dragonlance.
What is your highest level in EQ? 70, 1160 AA
What race and class is your main character? Froglok wizard, it was originally an alt till my guild broke up on Povar.
What do you like the most about the class you have chosen for your main character? Honestly I love the flip casting. I doubt there will ever be another race that could beat that, wizards too are a challenging class to play on a raid.
Does your main character worship a deity? Mithanial Marr
How did you choose your main character's name? I've always chosen names that started with Kev, down the line Fear Factor was on and put 2 and 2 together and you get Kevfactor :)
Which classes in EQ have you NOT played? Mainly healers, I usually want to be in the action not keeping people in action up!
What is your favorite expansion? The original, mainly because it was just a new experience; expansion wise I liked LDoN the best (when it was new) for many reasons. As a whole I think missions and instances solved a lot of problems with other players ruining my gaming session. Also I really loved the mob art and having lot of group content to do even as a raider.
What is your favorite zone? Guk and Seb
What is your favorite npc? The Sleeper, really all dragons look cool!!! A close 2nd is Bristlebane, he a tricky god.
Which expansion do you like the least? PoR, it just didn't add much to the game except more raids and bank space. :) A close 2nd was Velious because those primals killed pvp for me!
Which zone do you like the least? PoG by far, I remember clearing that whole zone then some other guild would come in and take the god. Also were some painful cr's there.
Which npc do you like the least? Stormfeather, my eyes bled camping that guy back in the day!
What is the most platinum you have ever spent on purchasing a single item for one of your characters? Honestly I don't think over 70k and that was on a fungi back in the day. I'm a cheapskate and will farm stuff myself before spending over 30k on an item!
Do you have an item you no longer use but keep around for nostalgic reasons? If so what is it and why do you keep it? I haven't found an item I like that well but I do keep stuff from old raids because I feel I worked hard for that stuff even if I cant use those items anymore. I just wish there was a trophy room to showcase my old stuff off because almost out of bank space!
What do you like best about EverQuest? Well player interaction of course. It is fun to kill the dragon too!
What do you get out of playing EverQuest? Fun
Describe your best experience from playing EverQuest? Original pvp days on Vallon Zek by far, so many good times till about Velious. Friends I joined EQ with would go out to HK, Freeport or outside of fear and Pk lighties. Later on they nerfed necros so they quit but the time I spent with the people I joined EQ with was priceless.
Do you run or work for an EverQuest Fan Site? Nope, I just whine on them! hehe
