Used to be 5-10 hours at a time, now about 2-4 hours What does a typical EQ day consist of for you?
Log in, see if there is a raid, if so WOOT!! If not, ask if anyone needs some help. If no one in guild needs help I will go off and solo or work on trade skills with LFG on. What was the race and class of your very first character?
Ogre Warrior What got you into gaming and what sort of games do you like the most?
Wow, I have always loved games, started years ago with pong! Then I have owned just about every gaming machine they came out with. Then cpu's exploded all over and so did the internet, then I tried Delta force and F-22 Raptor online. The first game that got me into "guilds/fleet" was Starfleet Command. I love first person shooters ….heck I like em all it seems! What other hobbies or activities do you take part in, other then playing EverQuest?
My kids! They are why my playtime has been reduced over the years. Used to be I could play and watch them, but now they are older and I choose to play with them! I also am into RC airplanes and RC cars. What is your highest level in EQ?
80 What race and class is your main character?
Halfling Cleric What do you like the most about the class you have chosen for your main character?
I can do anything ;-). Clerics have become so versatile. I can tank, pull, crowd control, dps, solo and HEAL!! Does your main character worship a deity?
Bristlebane How did you choose your main character's name?
Made it up, sounded cool I thought. Plus a cleric is "key" to the group! Which classes in EQ have you NOT played?
Necro, Mage, Berserker, Paladin What is your favorite expansion?
LDON was AWESOME!!! It was great with the introduction of the augs and instances. It was sooo nice to be able to get a group and know it was a set amount of time. What is your favorite zone?
It is dead now, but I learned more in Karnor's Castle then anyplace. It was a great zone. What is your favorite NPC?
That dragon that wanders in the Dreadlands. Her name starts with a G… Never forget the first time I saw her "loading please wait" Which expansion do you like the least?
Hmmmm…. Legacy of Ykesha. Wasn't much to it. And before the addition of the PoK book was kind of a pain to get to it. Although, if I remember right, that was when we got more bank space, so I guess it was worth it just for that! Which zone do you like the least?
Plain of Nightmare…Lol spiders always give me the creeps ;-P Which NPC do you like the least?
That big spider in the Plain of Fire ;-) What is the most platinum you have ever spent on purchasing a single item for one of your characters?
300k on a porous loam 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?
Gosh, I know I kept my blessed prayer shawl for a long time. I am sure I have a ton of other worthless stuff. What do you like best about EverQuest?
The people I have met over the years. The dynamics of the raids. You just can't beat it.
