New Player Spawns Established by Verant
For those TC/GC looking to find easier areas to earn xp and cash in the overcrowded spots, the EQ staff has changed the spawn rates in certain zones. Sphincter reports that good-aligned players mages are now spawning near Quellious. These mages seem to have a very long aggro range towards evil HE rogues, but they also seem to drop rather quickly in melee. For money, you might want to try the East Commonlands near Neriak, where Bizanich is camping a neutral halfling spawn for about 2 plat a pop. All of these player mobs are at least 6th level and have a hive mentality, so watch your backs when you take one on. Its hard to keep up with all of you until we get guild chat, so please tell us your early PvP stories on our message board.
No Guilds on Sullon Zek Until July 5th
Verant says their guild database will be ready for new guilds on SZ on July 5th, so until then, level damnit. Our acting GM-type person in EQ until that time is Anduan Lothar (aka 'Anduan'), so any GC that have started up on SZ please contact Anduan in order to let us know your status and to be added to the guild on the 5th. We'll also announce recruiting officers on that day for people too lazy to walk to Neriak.
A Large Rat Slain; Local Dark Elves Suspected
Funeral services for 'a large rat' will be held round the clock today in Nektulos forest. The helpless large rat was cut to ribbons only -0.0047 seconds after birth yesterday afternoon around 4pm CST when the new Sullon Zek server opened to the public. Witnesses described the murder as "laggy" and "that was mine!". Dark Elf law enforcement official, Guard L'xvvrnn, currently has 300 to 400 suspects under a close eye, but evidence has been difficult to gather due to the other 2,347,918 similar murders that took place just outside Neriak that same day. Newbies to Sullon Zek are advised to avoid the zone until the suspects have all reached at least 6th level.
TC/GC Starting Up on EQ Sullon Zek Server
Its official, a group of TC/GC will be starting up on the new EQ Deity Team PvP Server, Sullon Zek, when it arrives on June 27th or later. We intend to try and change things up a bit and worship evil gods this time instead of our standard good-aligned deity, The Guardian, at least until he apologizes to me for that UO Third Dawn stunt he tried to pull last month. I've added a couple EQ info links to the left menu (for those who are new to EQ), along with a list of TC/GC members who intend to play there. It will actually be a mix of members from The Cabal and Guardian's Chosen, our IB and NC allies, and some new GC apprentices that were not with us on Siege. They all said they would definitely be there, or "Lothar, if I say yes, will you stop asking me?", or something like that. We hope to enhance our understanding of 3D pvp after playing UO for so long. As for established EQ players on other shards who don't want to build a new character, we've heard rumor that they may allow character transfers (with no equipment) from other shards, but not sure if that's definate or whether they might intend to allow that sometime in the future. Will AO or SB come along and make us change our minds about EQ? We'll just have to wait, and wait, and wait, and see.
A Quick Review of Anarchy Online Beta
I wrote a little synopsis of the Anarchy Online Beta and my experiences there so far. The AO beta is open and in final testing, so take a look at it and see if its a MMORPG you'd like to try when it releases here in the next few weeks. Other Cabal members known to be creeping around in the AO beta include Viper Relismonne and Kitty. Please feel free to make comments about the AO beta on our message board.
