EQ2: Cloth vests mean more fashion choices for casters

In either this latest game update, GU49, or the previous one, SOE added new recipes for tailors so that cloth-wearing classes, the ones whose clothing choices have previously been limited pretty much to all-covering burkas, can have a little more flexibility with their look. Last night I stood in front of a loom and looked at some of these new options. Some of the new outfits are ungodly ugly, at least on halflings. But a couple really stuck out. I must point out, though, that the claim in the GU48 patch notes that all outfits would be complete doesn’t seem to be the case. If you could previously only make four pieces of a particular suit, you should now be able to make all of them. This wasn’t the case with the tier 1 Tranquil sets, below. Both were missing boots and bracers, and neither the hat nor the shoulder pieces had a graphic. ...

All the signs point to work by Bertoxxulous’s disciples, but the high priest of the god of disease swears that though they have no love for any follower of the Prime Healer, Rodcet Nife, it wasn’t them. They were framed. ...

EQ2: That's MS. Guild Hall Constructor to YOU.

Thought I’d never finish the thirty gathering missions necessary to get the “Guild Hall Constructor” title. I’d get bored, or find something else to do, or… pretty much anything else. But I did want to get the title before the event ends. After all, what better way to tell the world you’re an obsessive-compulsive whose probably going to try and sell you something? It would have been harder without Stargrace’s sage advice. She would grab a mission and head to Sunken City. Few people went there. If she couldn’t finish the mission there, the Graveyard was a short hop away, and it would have the stuff. ...

EQ2: Game update 48 is live

I guess I know what I’ll be doing tonight… VEKSAR! Though now that I have capped out my AAs, part of me doesn’t want to finish any more quests or explore any new zones because, heck, I have 60 AAs to earn pretty soon. But yeah… **VEKSAR! VEKSAR! VEKSAR was a city I mean, it was a ruined city or maybe it was just ruins but it was still VEKSAR! ...
