| Meet Tilluan Wolvenblood Server: Antonius Bayle |  |
Forchheim/Erlangen in Bavaria, Germany How long have you played EQ?
Since 2002 What other MMOs have you played?
WoW one week trial (and not longer) What type of work do you do?
Medical Informatics in University Hospital How long is your typical gaming session when playing EQ?
2-3 hours What does a typical EQ day consist of for you?
Logging in at the evening, checking guild and alliance chat channels, trying to sort the guild bank entries, greeting folks, meeting for planned group events or raids, having fun and hopefully winning What was the race and class of your very first character?
Woodelf, druid What got you into gaming and what sort of games do you like the most?
A good friend of mine seduced me to play EQ - I like mostly role playing and strategy games. What other hobbies or activities do you take part in, other then playing EverQuest?
Actually my family - very time consuming :) What is your highest level in EQ?
75 What race and class is your main character?
Woodelf, druid (my first character) What do you like the most about the class you have chosen for your main character?
My main char was strong enough to level up by playing solo, in groups and in raids. Druids are very multifunctional - however I play mostly the healer part due to the fact that clerics are quite rare. Does your main character worship a deity?
Tunare How did you choose your main character's name?
The name was proposed by the name generator in game. Which classes in EQ have you NOT played?
Warrior, Monk, Wizard, Berserker, Ranger, Rogue What is your favorite expansion?
Difficult – PoP was a great expansion, however actually I prefer DoN (for medium content raids), TSS (for soloing) and TBS (for grouping) What is your favorite zone?
Blightfire Moors – a totally great fun and quest zone for lower chars. What is your favorite NPC?
The Blackened Dryad and Xegony – they are sooo cute! Which expansion do you like the least?
GoD - was very hard when it came out and the raids were quite time consuming. Which zone do you like the least?
Plane of Hate (as the ingame map was not available in older days) and as druid I don’t like much indoor zones generally. Which NPC do you like the least?
Cornaiv the Avatar of Water - due to the fact that this fight was always a bottle neck in raid rotation and cause for many trouble. What is the most platinum you have ever spent on purchasing a single item for one of your characters?
100k for my brown chain horse 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?
The Nature Walker's Scimitar - cause it was hard work to finish the Druid Epic 1.0 What do you like best about EverQuest?
The social aspect of guilds and having fun with real life persons in a game with full of suspense and challenges. What do you get out of playing EverQuest?
On the one side the possibility to relax from work - on the other side the benefit of friendships and attaining goals (e.g. Epics, raid progression steps) Describe your best experience from playing EverQuest?
My best experience was the end fight in the Plane of Earth – that fight took many hours and was most impressing and emotionally overwhelming - these moments are forever …. the fact that 50 players fight on the edge and struggle for a long long time and finally win! What more can you expect? Do you run or work for an EverQuest Fan Site?
I founded a meta guild alliance called Emissaries of Virtue (www.guilduniverse.com/eov) to reunion new and old friends from the whole Europe. We are members of so called “casual or family oriented” guilds and we meet together to raid medium raid content one evening in the week.
