Back from the ashes

[ClawHammr]

<DIV>Its been 8 months but I have returned to Norrath..,,</DIV>

[Ultharion]

Welcome back! I'm back after a 10 month break, myself, and so far, I'm really liking the changes.

[ClawHammr]

Thanks! So is there anything I really need to know about what has changed? Im looking forward to the new SOGA models (how do you access/activate those anyway?) and to seeing the Fire and Air pets in action since they were fixed. I was so frustrated 8 months ago because all I could use effectively was the Earth Pet (no complaints about him, he is a level 50 Master 1 <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />  I have the Magi at Adept 3 and the Air Pet is too I think. But they were both basically worthless as far as DPS in Tier 5 zones. I also have the expansion of course so definitely looking forward to that. Hated Lavastorm and all the bugs so 8 months later and with an expansion lets hope things have changed for the better.

<P>Welcome back! <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></P> <P>air and fire are sick DPS, but they ain't tank pets. Air pet with blazing presence is disgustingly destructive, hehe.</P> <P>TO get soga models showing start EQ up form the begininng, do not select a character, NO CHARACTER SELECT, then hit play button, tweak yer character as wish etc.</P> <P>Game play is bit different, Xalmat's FAQ, below, should help.</P> <P>Have fun! <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></P> <P> </P>

Whats the quickest way to get one of the new Black robes? I must have one

[Xalmat]

What new black robes?Be sure to read the FAQ. And also be sure to read up on every single spell in your spellbook; <I>most</I> spells got a major change from before the combat changes, including one certain level 50 spell that you have.

[ClawHammr]

<P>Well,  the black robes are new to me, all of them. I think one is called Barristers robe and other is Robe of the Bretheren or something. Anyway, its been 8 months so...</P> <P> </P> <P>But , my character is missing from Character Selection so I cant do anything unless the GMs can somehow restore my level 50 Conjurer <img src="/smilies/9d71f0541cff0a302a0309c5079e8dee.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />   I submitted a CS ticket already.</P>

<DIV>the robe you saw might have been a robe from one of the courts in Maj'Dul.  Pick either the truth, coin, or blades and start working for them.  Do quests, and kill guards for the others to turn in thier coins.  Once you get you faction level up, you can enter the court and have access to all kinds of exclusive stuff like arena pets, and robes and such.  I chose the Truth court and this is the robe that is available to me:</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV><A href="http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c135/DragonMaster2385/avatar.gif" target=_blank>http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c135/DragonMaster2385/avatar.gif</A></DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>I saw the coins robe and it is a yellow color, and the blades robe (I believe) is blue.  They all have different patters and such.</DIV><p>Message Edited by DragonMaster2385 on <span class=date_text>11-14-2005</span> <span class=time_text>12:40 PM</span>

The robe is called Honorary Robe of the Brethren which I think is still in-game from quests in Nec Forest. The other black robe was Barristers Robe but can find any current information on that one.

<DIV>barrister robe is form quest, Zek, the grove, can't recall if it's the gnome there or not <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></DIV>
