Question about servers if I may

[badtupram]

My first post so I hope this is a fair question.  Forgive me if it's redundant. I've been playing on the Vox server, but how can I tell if it's good or bad. Thanks for any help. <img src="http://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c22/tupsplace/sig2.jpg" border="0">

what do you mean by "good" or "bad''?

[badtupram]

If I try to buy some gold for instance, they'll ask me for good or bad vox server. <img src="http://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c22/tupsplace/sig2.jpg" border="0">

<p>well A: buying gold off of 3rd party sites = against the terms and conditions</p><p>B: The only legal way to buy platnium on the game is on the vox and on the bazaar servers through:</p><p>http://eq2.stationexchange.com/</p>

Second, there's no good or bad servers, it's good or bad alignment within the server.  Freeport and Neriak are evil, Kelethin and Qeynos are good.

Huh ... what?  You buy from a plat seller and you get caught, you're banned.  Play the game.  Making money in it is easy, just look it up on some of these threads.  If you're not inclined to put a little effort in it, and buy online plat, don't be surprised when you can't log in.

Thanks so much for the help.  I didn't know all of this.  I do appreciate the help.  I'll check out the Station Exchange. LOL!  I've been around, raised, and/or trained horses all my life.  Just would like to have one in the game is all. <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /> Thanks again for your help. <img src="http://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c22/tupsplace/sig2.jpg" border="0">

Horses are easy to get, just need to make some coin.  You can farm for T2 and T3 rares for that, make enough to buy a horse yourself in a week easily.

Hi Bloodfang,  thanks for the heads up.  I am new so I guess I have to ask stupid questions.  Sorry.  What do you mean when you say "farm for T2 and T3 rares?"   Thanks <img src="http://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c22/tupsplace/sig2.jpg" border="0">

[badtupram]

Hey you know what...I did a google search and found some information on that.  I think what you mean is harvesting for rare items.  Hope this is correct. Thanks guys. <img src="http://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c22/tupsplace/sig2.jpg" border="0">

It means kill low level mobs and sell the adept spells on the broker.

[badtupram]

Ok. Does that mean other people in the game? <img src="http://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c22/tupsplace/sig2.jpg" border="0"> 

[badtupram]

The reason I'm asking that is because I've been killed a few times by other players that are much higher levels.  I really don't appreciate it.  And well,  wrong or right, I can't do that to others.  I'm not saying that's what you mean though, just....if it is I couldn't do that unless they were a bad or rival guild/group or something. <img src="http://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c22/tupsplace/sig2.jpg" border="0">

<p>Some good starting advice in this thread (yes, I'm tooting my own horn while I'm at it)</p><p><a href="http://forums.station.sony.com/eq2/posts/list.m?topic_id=370781" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://forums.station.sony.com/eq2/...topic_id=370781</a></p><p>And by farming, either application of it counts.  I find taking out a level 7 scout as the most effective way for Tier 2 (Antonica or Commonlands) and harvesting nodes for rares.  Rares sell.  Products made from them sell, too.</p><p>You're going to lose at PvP early on.  And later on.  It sucks, but it's also PvP, soooo....</p>

Hey, ok Bloodfang.  Great post.   That gives me a guide.  I have buddy on the server who is at about the same level as I, around 13.  He's a Guardian/half elf and I'm a Fae/Warden.  So we can work together on these principl es. Thanks again. <img src="http://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c22/tupsplace/sig2.jpg" border="0">
