For Progression Servers, killing tradeskill mobs like WYverns in Cobalt Scar benefit you in several ways: 1) no faction hits for non-named mobs 2) Hides are sellable in bazaar for those Tailors needing to skill up. Price varies per server. 3) Armor Gems - these tend to all sell around 40-ish PP per....

Good points by Tweelis. You DO need to load up a magic weapon for your pet. I personally find the Fire pet a more difficult pet to play when breaking the island spawns as well as when you sit at the spawn point because the spawns come fairly close together and the water pet has better regen ability ...

I found this link on the website Fippydarkpaw.com which is dedicated to the progression servers. This shows a bare-bones version of Magicians info before eqsummoners went bye-bye. There is a lot of good data to read through and might help us somewhat while we play on these progression servers. http:...

Wisp Hunting – or – Greater Lightstone Pharming There is a quest in NKarana where if you turn in a Greater Lightstone off a wisp will net you a Concordance of research which was in its day used to help with spell research. Its value however is when you sell it back for 8 platinum. Bring bags full of...

Grouping? Only if I have to. I am Mage, hear Fluffy Roahr!! Let me start with things I have seen that make this server different. Levleing is spread out for each level. With a 2% XP cap per kill, you can expect 50+ kills per level to get to the next one. Every level. For the first levels that is an ...

I have tried this server and here is an update on what you are likely to expect at first. I made an erudite mage, started in front of the guildmaster in erudin palace, turned in my letter and got my purple robe, equipped it. I forgot to go by the abnk and get the 2nd bag stored in there but you shol...

Thank you for your posts. They have helped me a lot. I have been trying zones for AA Xp these weeks, have received great help from General chat to finish my Epic 1.5!! I have found that Plane of Tactics near the north end of zone (near Tagrin but not IN his room!) to be an excellent place for AA Xp,...

Alrighty well I can help, sort of. So here's the deal, if you intend to stop again at 71 for AA's and jazz. I'd go 66-68 at Walls of Slaughter or Nobles Causeway which gets you however many spells you can hope for. While you're at it look up the research components you'll need and pick those up if ...

Well, returning to my old characters after RL has kept me from EQ for a few months. Decided to hop back into mage and level him to 80 with my bard / new necro which I'll start next week. Going ahead and using my old monk to quickly boost the mage to 80 (Can't do it for bard due to them being same a...

<<EDITED>> - See bottom of post. Thanks for a Great thread. it is funny to see several level 66-67 mages returning. My main used to be a 75 pally, but I really came back to play the best pet class i ever found since gaming from 2002. Ini is 66, but with few AA's. Now I am back and I have raised her ...
