Your making a difference, Fez. Looking at the comments, I see I am not alone. That's really cool. Thank you! Sincerely, Yeverah,

there's also another easy backpack for beginners to get. in pok, there's an npc that has tutorial quests, the bazaar quest (if i'm not mistaken), reward is a 10 slot backpack with 50% weight reduction.

Nicely done, sir. I just poked my head back into EQ after a 20-year break, and really appreciate your vids!

The Barter tip is awesome. I use it now and I learned about it from you. My biggest tip would be to spend a bit of time working on your UI set up before you start playing for the first time. My UI set up looks nice and clean. Looks like the set up from my days in WoW and Rift so I know where everything is. Then I can copy to new characters so no need to mess with the UI again. This video is very informative and helpful.

Man, the barter tip saved my life last night. I had made my way down to the AC camp in upper guk with my new toons. Popped lesson of devoted and was getting 50% xp a kill. 12 lvls later I had no play for spells but a ton of trade skill items. Managed to buy the majority of my spells due to barter. Yay, thanks.

Thanks for the handy tips! I randomly decided to mess around a bit in EverQuest after 20 some years and everything is changed!

20 year break, just got back on. Truly appreciate the video and information! Graebow

Thanks for the tips my guy

Finally a helpful guide thank you

Finally started playing, after my Dad's nudged me for years. Helped me hit the ground running, appreciate it.

Thanks buddy. Going to give this a try tonight :)

Very helpful video!

I played a necro from 1999 to 2014. Best game I ever played. That said, I couldn't even imagine going back now after being away for 9 years. My necro is sitting on a server somewhere at level 105 with top tier raid gear.

I played a bard midway up since day #1, when they 'opened the gates' to the EC, and we all ran around and killed massive spiders (which made me scream when one first ran across my screen), and heard a strange sound seconds before we were shredded by a griff (of course we all ran into a building, and it continued to shred us in there!). EQ was brutal, yet so much fun. I was on Mith. Marr, and our GM (Brother Xave?) was always around, keeping us in character. Most everyone was in-character back then, for some reason, by the very nature of seeing ourselves as a sort of creature, in a fantasy setting. Everyone would use some sort of race/setting appropriate "speak", and use the 'hail' gesture, at least. EQ was something so new, that though we weren't on a rp server, the original game creators/GMs liked to see us in-character, and daily would remove people's names that were inappropriate for the setting. The GMs also would create huge events, such as one invasion of the 'evil races' attacking East Commons, and eventually Freeport. They had an insane boss character that would emote 'turns his gaze upon you', and then you'd die. I wanted to go see the fight, zoned in, saw that emote, and leaped into the zone wall again, making it out. Being a bard, I had people 'haunting my dreams' with bribes to go and retrieve their corpses for them. I logged off during that event, and went back after it was all over a couple days later. Our GM would do occasional cruel things like taking the dark elf from N. Ro, and putting him wandering around by the zone to WC. He'd attack my friend and I, and when we'd try to sneak to get our corpses before they decayed, he would come running from elsewhere to kill us again. We each lost several levels (He'd lost level 30, which was quite a 'hell level', I recall), and were still trying to get our bodies 12-14 hours later. It was obvious that.. (is that NPC's name something like 'Kizdjean Gix'?) he wasn't an NPC during that night. He was intelligent, and soooo merciless!! Haha.. he eventually returned, in the morning, to his NPC status in N. Ro. Usually, as a bard, I could outrun most anything.. especially later, when I got my Mistmoor Battle Drums. I loved being a bard, being able to bash on things, if needed, or play my lute, and twist heal and mana and a stun shout. I could run people places twisting speed and levitate. The sheer versatility of the bard was fantastic, which is why I'm so disappointed to find out that they were nerfed to a level of uselessness later on. Do you think that they will try and balance them in the future?

Great video!

Hey Fezzelwhig, thank you for all your videos. I played EQ when it came out in 99, swapped to WoW and now I'm playing EQ (free version) currently. I was wondering if you could give me some information about servers, that have a lot of people in them to group / guild with. I miss the social aspect a lot. I saw you other videos "Just me playing EQ" and I'd like to be part of that community again. I played a necro back when the level cap was just 60. I'm still trying to get my head around the new progressive servers. Like what happens if you aren't max level when the next expansion opens? I've been away from EQ for 20 years. I keep going through all your wonderful videos for help and tips (especially macros). Thank you again for all your hard work into these videos and keep them coming!

20 year hiatus. Just started to check out a FTP. I really like the changes that have been mad but man is it overwhelming... What i would like to see is a decent per level hunting guide for live.

I'm wondering, do you have some kind of mod for your target rings? They look really neat.

Awesome video man! I had a 50ish Rogue like 100 years ago. I quit right before Planes of Power came out & lost my account. How are Rogues doing these days? I loved playing Rogue but I felt really weak & useless most of the time unless I was doing corpse runs for people. I hope ROG is more essential these days?

good tips but dude how do you play with your Gamma like that? you hate color? lol

Get a jade mace and a fungi tunic… and don’t forget to eat.

Any tips for finding a guild? i started on the most populated server FV and sorta expected there would be the occasional guild recruiting message. but havent heard a single one in 25 levels and everytime i ask in New Players chat i get no reply. Is this a soloers server mainly?

Should I do the entire tutorial area like the lvl 4 and 6 missions as well ? Or just get the armor and leave

Do you multi box Fezz?

1999

Brotha these types of videos need time stamps

As much as I love EQ, Live EQ doesn't even feel right anymore... I went back and it was a completely different game.. They watered down this game so much its almost ridiculous. I tried Project 1999 and wow, I felt like I traveled back to the o.g days of EQ. I left live EQ in 2015 for P99 and haven't looked back.
