Good Morning,

Hope everyone had a great weekend. Dinged 73 on my wizard, and I think I have finished every quest but 1 in Kylong plains, my Teren's Grasp faction is 44,000. Is there a way to get to 50,000? Logged on my Fury and dinged her from 39 to 41 while helping out a guildee. Watched alot of football. Ate alot of food. Good times.

I hate a fun weekend overall, even though I didn't get to play as much as I would have liked.

The holiday ate up my raid attendance on Friday night, so I ended up calling that one early due to a whacked out raid config making things kinda insane :

Saturday was a busy in RL day....slept in, ran to the Gym...got home, got ready...and zipped over to a Bday supper...then went club hopping 'till 5:30 am. Ouchies the next day.

Sunday, woke up...did battle with my stomach for about 2 hours...and won! Fell back asleep for another few hours. Woke up and zipped off to buy some new kitchen furniture. Got back right in time for a MMIS raid. Completely spanked the place with a bunch of over-levels. Did manage to win a nice piece of gear though.

After the raid, got a group and went through Crypt of Agony. Picked up a couple AAs for the effort.

Happy times.

Not a lot of time this weekend, but did get my monk to 74 and my AA's to 92.

Got my faction with Teren's up to 50k, did all the quests and also three quests that Wanderingfree adviced in a previous "Good morning 11-20" thread. Not sure if you've done those, but in Highton, when you finished the quest that tells you to look inside a box with some goggles, you can occasionally find little creatures you can pick up inside the hives themselves. I found three of them, which put my faction at 50.

Working in the Fens now on about four factions, of which two clash at times. Fun, but a lot of running around.

The holiday's over and I'm back to data entry, lol.

I'm a bit frustrated with the expansion. My main is 66, and keep in mine that my playtimes/kids/time zone aren't conductive to grouping. I've hit an awkward level where solo XP is thin and hard to get, yet I cannot live through the early Kylong Plains quests (WTF is UP with the drolvarg, anyway? No one should hit that hard, lol).

I've got to buckle down and blow through it.

In the meantime, I'm making 10-30 plat a day selling T8 Woodworker Mastercrafted. Like, WANDS and NON-BOWS, which hasn't happened since T4 or T5. No one else seems to have picked up on it, as of yesterday I was the only person on my server selling the higher level T8 stuff, including totems and tools. Strange, but I'm happy to make my money while I can!

I'ld never have found it without Wanderingfree, although the quest with the goggles ends with the NPC referring to "if you encounter any other such creatures, bring them to me", it never did cross my mind to enter those hives again and see if anything was there. (they are fairly small, not always up too)

Not sure if there is another way to raise the faction with Teren's, in the Fens there are always mobs that will raise faction, albeit very slowly.

Just poking along with several low level toons. I hit 19 on my sarnak SK, also started a sarnak defiler. It seems like the lower levels level very easily, I'm interested in seeing how much that changes once I get into the 20's. I still haven't figured out the crafting system. Part of that is when I tried to start I needed some low level materials, which when I tried to go out and "gather" them my bags filled up too fast with stuff I didn't need. I guess I need to wait till I get more bags, other than the little 6 slot ones you can buy cheap.

Long, productive weekend.

Finished off all but a couple of the heroic Fens of Nathsar quests. Scored AA#112 and dinged 75. Took Master II taunt and had some Adept III's made of some key skills. Helped a couple folk out with some named kills. Moved on to Kunzar Jungle. Kunzar progression doesn't seem as obvious or streamlined as KP or the Fens. I'm still feeling my way around. I'm not sure I like the design as much. Feels..."cramped". Still having a blast though.

Took Monday off to get caught up on some chores and more importantly, to catch up with my buddy in EQ2. Got the chores done but only dinged 73.4 before logging. Buddy two-boxes and is up to level 76 with 99% of his exp coming from only quests.

While level 72 (he being level 75 wizzie and shaman), we tried to take the triple up's in Karnors. No dice. They hit to frigging hard and I, being a pally with what I thought was decent gear, took a few dirt naps in the entrance way. I may try again at level 74.

I like all the quests that are available but I really just wanted to get a good grinding group going to burn through some vitality. No dice on that either.

I do like the birds (lizards) that are scattered about. That makes traveling quick as long as you have already made the trip to the bird station.

The one zone that that I haven't completely explored is Kunzar Jungle. I have done lots of faction quests there so that I am non-kos to many villages, but still can't bank, mend, or vendor. It's too high for me to solo in so it will be awhile before I finish that zone.
