I am away from computers (and out of town) for about 2 weeks.

Gidono has been doing a juggernaut ("I am unstoppable") job of the updates [edit: and Larth has been doing a massive amount of behind-the-scenes legwork] of late so I'm really only posting this in case someone asks me a direct question (happens from time to time) --It's usually better to ask in the general forum anyways.

Putting it out there: someone feel free to start a "weekend update" thread every Monday (and not a Wednesday like I did this one)... history shows participants get rated up... cough...


In game I am loving my Shammy on Quarm server. Never played one before. Got to level 55. I had spent a few of the granted 50 AA before realizing older AA xp curve is in effect (and no autogrant) so I am sitting at 55 and working on places to farm up some AA to make myself stronger. Light blues in Dranik's give 6% AA for a solo kill for example. I also farmed myself a soulstripper as defiant weapons really aren't good especially if you don't need the stats on them.



And lastly, if you didn't see the news article about the new big quests in the game, I suggest checking out this O=board thread as it is a good read and may inspire some of you to tackle some big questing.

The Summer of TBM updates from me are still unfolding
I am now getting some more stuff to the done stage.

The news board loads slower until that one large page of updates gets archived.
NPC - TBM group items are done for POTanq and PoHeath NPC's I know about but I need to review if more. . Even if I can't have TBM faction or TBM coin right.

I started last night to add some items like missing raid chests needed for me to start adding missing NPC Raid items from NPC's for POTanq and PoHeath
Still working on it.

POTraq - added two quests I need to add more info to. .
I need to review POTraq for more missing NPC and info.

I would like to get POTraq one zone total done before the end of July.

working on the following TBM in the zones...
POTraq
POHealth
Hate
Fear


P.S. I am leading raid for my guild Sun,Mon and Tues and I did create a some toons on Quarm (Wed,Thurs and Fri) got my Wiz to level 52.9 starting farming PP for spells for lvl 53.

This past weekend, I spent time tinkering around with my cleric. I have an old level 80 cleric, but I completely forgot how to play her. I used to love tanking with her and showing off her tanking ability. But, I made a new one to re-learn how to play one. So far, it's been so much fun!

Larth has been doing a ton of TBM work so all the gear and augs you see with pricing put on them from TMB lately is from him. He is doing an awesome job at all that. I went back and cut up one of the updates that had a large portion of his work in it cause there was so much, split it into 2 pages.

Myself, I've been adding progression server content and updating stuff from the New Comments link.

I also updated the Quick Links on the front page to include all the class forums and put the class forums on the main Everquest Wiki page. Maybe we'll see some traffic on those forums again.

I've also been busy tinkering with the spell data file from Everquest. Learning what all the different data fields mean for each spell. Eventually, I'll build my own spell parser and put it up on my own personal website.

Yeah, much of the work the volunteer admn do can be somewhat invisible vs. the obvious of the news postings and such. A few of the team lean towards the being more anon approach (not known for posting in forums for example). I know for a fact that an admn that is not snailish, Larth or Gidono has done a significant amount of faction updating on older content as one example.

Playing shaman and planning on tradeskilling? You can easily farm tons of autumn crocus from mobs in the outermost perimeter hallway in Sanctus Seru.

Just returned from Rome and Paris last night, so no EQ for me the last couple of weeks. Just catching up on patches and other changes :)
