EQ2 Weekend In Review: Emerald Halls, FTH, and Karnors Castle
Well the wife and I have been busy bunnies since the last entry. Sorry for lack of comms over the weekend, but much questing ensued and also some raiding.
Saturday I tanked for a group for the first time since coming back this time around. The last time I tanked for a group was back on EoF in Klakanon and that was on my SK! It was with a guild group so I felt the need to impress.
Well it actually went along really well (DAMN those mobs hit hard though) and we managed to get 4 quests done before we had to stop. We even killed a named that was up on one of the ballista towers. The drops? An adept book…. to say we were dissapointed is an understatement, especially since the mob had a wicked knockback and I went flying down the other end of the zone! Cue much laughing and our Guild Leader saying “Yeah I forgot he does that!”
Well we carried on levelling till Sunday where it was raid time!
The guild wanted to try Emerald Halls, so we went in there, managed to kill the wolf then went for some fairy guy with adds who proceeded to hack us to pieces, it was all a lot of fun though much repairing was needed.
After this was done it was decided to have an hour break then head to FTH to play in there.
I managed to win some new Shoulders from one of the bosses and Hunni won her first fabled item too! All in all I like raiding in EQ2, especially with The Conclave. Its a slower pace from WoW which I love, I cant be arsed with those sorts of raids anymore.
SO that was pretty much the weekend, I suppose you are wondering how we are progressing? Well we are just moving on the the Bellywhumper(sp?) faction in the Fens with Hunni sat at level 73 and me at 75! Yup 5 levels since the last entry!!!!!!!
Lets hope for a couple more!

Ya the first time i tanked KC (on day 1) with my guardian i pulled 2 mobs got owned very quickly (im in all fable grear) One of my guild mates on Teamspeak said, What happened?.
Esstianly KC mobs feel like KoS or stronger raid mobs with the amount of damage they do.

I noticed. Those first two mobs in there killed me on the first pull too. Im not even fabled out, I levelled from 63 once the expansion was released meaning I was wearing Xegonite at the time!
Our enchanter was on top form so incoming damage was minimal with a mezz on one mob all the time. All in all I like the zone but it doesnt seem to be one you can do once you have killed the nameds and done the quests.
There just doesnt seem to be loot worth farming in there!
Cheers for stopping by Ogre!
