Saturday: More time spent in Skyfire and Nadox.

Sunday: More time spent in Skyfire and Nadox.

I'm about to finish up my level 55 AAs. I have combat agility 3, combat stability 3, spell casting fury 3, healing adept 3 and close to healing gift 3.
I'm starting to solo more as becoming more efficient with my AA base.

I'm ready to finish up AAs to head for 59 for some more AA loving.

I still have the mines belt, and some home city newbie armor as defiant is being stubborn.

This was a weekend of death for me, and I only played on Sunday:

Sunday:
1. Try to 5 box the level 70 aura mission arc in Skylance. Didn't go so well, nine total toon detahs.

2. Let's move to Hills of Shade to put the smack down on some undead Tunare huggers. I hate gating mobs. Seven total toon deaths.

3. Move to the skeleton camp in Loping Plains. ZERO total toon deaths. Yay!!!

4. Move to Bloodmoon Keep. First time there. I was just clearing what I could near the entrance. I saw a named up, but I couldn't clear to him. So I tried to suicide pull with my ranger hoping that the named would lag behind and I could nab him solo. I found out that my bard songs have a wicked nasty range. Four toon deaths. Rinse repeat without the bard songs. One toon death. I gave up on the named. Since some re-pops happened, I knew I would have some multiple pulls. Pull mob A, get mob B and two other friends. Pull mob B, and get mob A and not friends. Learned that the hard way, four more toon deaths.

During Week: Tried the Torgarin's Mines mob for Rng 1.5 pre-quest. I've decided it's bugged, Over 50hrs last week / weekend, and another 6+ hrs after patch, and still not a single spawn. Started the Rng 1.0. Got to the 4 foraged items, had already gotten 3, but was still missing the Everfrost, so gave up there. Wife finished it off the next day, and I helped on the Jaell and PoSky mobs (not that it was necessary :D ).

Fri: Was out of town most of the day. Not sure if I even played, think just had trader on.

Sat: Think this was the day we finished up the 1.0, in the am. Spent the evening going over songs to play. Ex-band mates wanna get together again. Got a list narrowed down to 50ish. Will prob cut the rest after the first practice.

Sun: Slept alot, catching up from lack of sleep over the weekend. Finally started mapping out zones. Gotten pretty far. All of Overthere, less labels. Outline of FM, and 80% of Droga. Been playing around with EQ Zone Converter and PoV-Ray, and getting some descent results by reducing the textures to 1-4 colors each. Much cleaner renderings. Still need to work on the PoV to NMF (? Topographic) file conversion program, as well as one for the log file /loc lines (as the new *.eqg files EQ Zone Converter doesn't recognize).

Have a good week, and if in-game, have fun!

**** EDIT ****
Typing just keeps getting worse :(
Yea, bbot used to do it all the time, but has been away from game alot lately, so whoever has been starting them lately.

I spent way too much time in RSS this week, but I did get the flameshield aug x4 for three different toons on Povar. Time for a break now, lol.

No EQ for me this weekend. Lots of work, and lots of sleep.

That's only because European time gives me an advantage over you US Alla fellows. :-P Weekend Update wasn't my invention, it's rather a first-come first-post thingy.

Didn't play that much, busy weekend. Did wander and explore different areas and tried to find the zones so that my toons could start going to the Hot Zones. Been a long time and have forgotten the names of a lot of the zones and dont know new ones at all.

Made the big mistake of taking the boat to Over There instead of the portal in POK. They love me there lol.

Friday I wasnt feeling well, lucky I had day off. Spent it reading, watching TCM and playing with Jonwinnie and druid Primrosex and Courtin solo in NC. Courtin died when he tried to take out two armsmen. Hey in COD I can handle 3 mobs. So after rezz I went back to cod to regain some of the lost exp. Ding a few aa's, looted lessor rune. Early valentines day for myself and elne clare. One time with Jonwinnie tried to help someone on epic mob in NC died to it, as I thought I might, 5 min later the server crashes. Why couldnt it have been 6 min earlier?

Sat. Work very busy on ship due to a clear day. Still not feeling well. Courtin in cod for a quick bit. Jonwinnie went shopping in bazaar after she dinged 72 with druid in NC. No runes. 2nd Valentines day in a row elne and I spent in separate beds. Last year due to broken leg, this year due to colds.

Sunday Another busy fun day at work. Yet again took courtin to Cod. Logged out when it was getting crowded. Some Lucky Insane folks wanted to do Ssra where I had my cleric and ranger camped for the last 2 weeks. Dusted them off and dinged 58 on cleric with 3 aa's added, 4 aa's for the ranger.

Monday. Early this monday mornign when i couldnt sleep logged on courtin to an empty COd. Things went well untill the greater pulsing, which cant be rooted. The adds he sent my way killed me. Waited to long to run. Rezzed after going back in and grouping with a shaman for about a half hour. Moving around toons I answered a call for help in chardok to pick a lock on my rogue. Forgot what level my skill was at and it wasnt high enough. Died to some runner sending adds but after the paladin rezz I earned enough exp to ding 59 with Cump.
He is now camped in chardok so he can work on disarm trap skills.

Not a special weekend for EQ.

Friday - raided with guild in Frostcrtypt 1. No drops for me...

Saturday - raided with the guild in Frostcrypt 2 but had to log early because my son came down with hives. After two years, three allergy specialists and immeasuable amounts of time monitoring what he eats etc, we still have no idea what he is allergic to.

Sunday - created a BST from leveled him up to 22 with no twinking.

Today - Hung out in Bloody Kithicor with my ranja working on progression.
