I wasnt in EQ BoW. I play/played on Bertox, Dragon Council.

EQ quests were mysterious and convoluted and in many cases downright non-linear. People had to work at them, figure them out, work together, etc, etc, etc......until the spoiler sites came fully on line and we became more used to having said sites. Then it was simply a matter of printing out a walk through and following instructions. The days of having the difficult puzzles or questionable steps are over because everyone now knows how easy it is to get info.

People also seem to forget that you could turn in the wrong quest items and lose all your shit too. That was loads of fun.

Staff of the Wheel was totally win, also the flux staff.

Ranger epic 1.0 can go to hell; stupid emerald of corruption.

i don't want to hear any complaining about epics from any other classes. wizards epic was by far the hardest before they changed it. zombie flesh off of cazic thule? that fucking thing never dropped! neither did the staff off of phinny.

of course, after they nerfed it, the wizard epic was pretty easy. still don't understand however why the pre epic staff had +25 save vs. magic and you "upgraded" to +10 save vs magic when you got your epic...

the cloak off 4th isle in air was pretty shitty for necros

God damn, Zophim, there's a name I haven't seen in years.

Him and I always had some sort of understanding, I think I avoided his assholeness.

I do remember Kilogramm threatening to black list me for stealing a faction hit off King Tormax once though.

Pretty sure the Mage one at the time was considered the worst one because it had the item located the furthest in the Plane of Cazic's Touch... err Sky.

That was used in a sub-quest for an item that was used in the necromancer 1.0

I assume this is what you're talking about:
Black Silk Cape

and it's used in the quest to create:
Cloak of Spiroc Feathers

which is for the necro epic, which I guess means the black silk cape wasn't meant as a 'real' piece of equipment.

7th Isle iirc. That wasn't nearly as bad as the Pegasus Cloak, and the drop in Hate. Took Silvas forever, and he was one of the first game-wide.

Oh that way of playing surely existed, it was just in areas like you said - the end game raiding guilds.

I remember the obvious change when I went from a casual/friend type guild to one of the top ones on the server. All in all though, I can't say I didn't enjoy being the 'you aren't in my guild? fuck you, then' guy. Rivalry was what really kept me playing as long as I did.

It was a real piece of equipment...You could do that quest before the epic came out. Epic was just the only reason to do it. I got mine by luck, he dropped 2, and I was just there to help necro 1 get theirs, I had no intention of doing my epic. If it hadn't dropped 2, I never would have gotten the shitty duck staff.

Oh, there was rivalries and while i was in raid mode. i had that my guild first attitude as well, but as soon as raids were over, for me it ended there.

It would be insanely win if there was a reputation system in place so you know which people where asshats and which were valuable assets to a group.

Although, I would have no way to implement/pitch a system like that without it being abused. Maybe if you could only add a positive reputation to someone instead of giving someone negative rep. A whole entire guild could negative rep you just for the sake of doing it. With positive reputation in place, only those outside of your guild are able to rep you and only one person can do it to you per account. But then after reading that idea it sounds kind of dull.

Maybe even public notes in-game for player-on-player infractions.

I meant it was shitty to obtain to complete their epic, since we were talking about hard to complete epics O.o, didn't mean as a piece of equipment.
