So I was taking a look at my mains creation date, and although I am not from beta or even from Ever Quest’s original release date, my characters are old. So my first character was a Dark Elf Wizard, created in February of 2002. Jacqui (yes, I used my REAL name as my character name I didn’t know what I was doing) died with on a daily basis, and could not find groups.
I mean really who wants the wizzie when the druid can do just as much damage and heal. So about 8 months later I made a High Elf Cleric. Good ol’ Gabs Alot. I have loved her since the day I made her. She is group friendly, and everyone wants to hang with her and pay her for buffage. What I didn’t know and found out as I got older was soloing was not really an option… yeah, yeah, yeah, I have heard of the weird battle clerics.. not my deal really. So I had to spend a lot of time looking for pickups and hoping there was room with my friends. This was great for a long time right up until 2003 when a lot of my friends were not playing as often and I was not into a lot a raiding. It was at the point I made myself a Vah’Shir Beast lord. This class rocks, huge pet comparable to the Mage. She also comes with slows, shaman buffs, and mad dps like a monk. Sbag (yes GABS backwards, I really suck at this whole naming thing.) is by far my favorite character to play, she is both group friendly and solo able. Anyway I duo (bot) them most nights, either in groups in Loping Planes or somewhere like Halls of Honor.
