Well i guess im a newb or something but i had no clue that if your group wipes and you have no way to rez and click out you cannot re enter for 8 hours and you need 3 people to get back in.What away to take out my EQ2 steam for the game this is about the suckiest thing ive found so far in this game.Now i have a big debt and have to wait and track down 3 more people to retrieve without dieing again...one helluva way to learn. 6hrs 45min to go =P

Ummm, this may be bugged now, but when I died in Firemyst I was able to click on the zone line and an option to retrieve my shard came up.

Can't remember if it was right-click or double-click or what.

I was also ungrouped at the time I did that (wee, Antonica crashes), so maybe you'll need to be solo in order to get the option. Try it out and let us know the results. =)

PS. I'd do it myself, but just got the game and still on the island lol

Edit add: Oh yeah, to answer the second question. Certain instanced zones in EQ2 have time limits and group size limits for entering them. Firemyst requires a group of 3-6 and you can only enter once every 8 hours, at least in beta.

Also, don't jump down the central shaft of mages tower in Qeynos and die landing on one of the little ledges that the lower ends of the tapestries attach to. 'cos they're apparently impossible to reach without falling down the same height again.

'course, no one would be stupid enough to, say, miss a jump from one level to the teleporter below so that they could discover this problem, especially not me. No. I'd never do that.

Just right-click the door to get your shard back.

KK after further review zonetime is 8 hours period is you enter you cannot return for 8 hours.Not sure why the would do that..something special inside something we must complete for no lockout time...right clicking on door did the same as left clicking..=P...3 of us at level 15 were getting 2 1/2 % a kill on the skeelies by front door all single pulls..this is the best exp ive seen so far....maybe cause we were 3 and BB groups are always 6..but anyways therss my final 2 cents.

I ran right through the teleporter my first time, as well. Had a priest handy so I didn't have to walk back at least.

I had this problem last night. You need someone who has the quest still "open" to enter. Once I entered with the quest and my group, it said we were too late to save Lord Nalin and when we wiped, we could not enter again. So we killed gnolls, until another a foul wind scroll dropped, a different guy read it, and we were all able to enter the zone again and get our soul shards, which greatly helped us recover our xp.

Loosing several soul shards inside firemyst gully with group xp debt really blows for the whole group. We were all VERY motivated to get back in. Another issue is when you revive - it puts you back in A antonica. Not necessarily the same one your group is in. I ended up in Antonica 4. My groupmates who lived and ran were in Antonica 3. My tank who died was revived in Antonica 2. So we had to run to the mariner's bell and then run back to rejoin the remainder of the group - a big long run, just to get back and figure out the stupid door.

The xp for a level 14 in Firemyst is incredible. 2% xp on every kill. Just don't pull the necro in the middle, he's one nasty guy.
