I have been playing eq since 2000 and everquest2 since 2006. I was just like any other noob back in eq playing a wood elf bard and I decided to leave Faydwer and explore the world at lvl 15. So Itraveled to the boat docks in ButcherBlock Mountains and hoped the first ship headed to Freeport. As I zoned from BBM into The Ocean of Tears I was so excited to see what all this game offers and then it happened, the ship docked at this small island. I was thinking this isn't the Legandry City of Freeport so where am I. Like a Noob I got off the ship and went to explore this island, Later I found out it was the Island of the Sisters of Erollisi. SO here I am standing in the middle of this Island village when a bandit comes running out of the wilderness and one shots me. SO I revive back in Kelethin and I start the journey over to retrieve my corpse and items. Just like the last time I hopped on the first ship headed to Freeport we zone from BBM to Ocean of Tears docked at the same little Island I get off the ship and just as I was reequipping my items I get one shotted again. It took 15 tries to finally retrieve all my items and Iwas just able to board the ship before it left docked. YEA I shouted off the Freeport here I go. We hit the zone line, this zoning was shorter than all the one leaving BBM docks, and before me I see ButcherBlock Mountains What the Hell. So I try again. Same results I always seem to return to ButcherBlock Mountains after 3 days I finally sent a tell to a higher level Mage friend of mine that had helped me in Crushbone and asked him if he could help me get to Freeport. He opened up a wizard portal and Commonlands we appeared, Man I hated dial-up. Out of all the Landmarks in Old Norrath Kithicor Forest and The Estate of Unrest where my Favorites. Kithicor Forest because of how the danger would change from Day to Night you had to be above lvl 50 to be safe at night. Unrest was just so Erie with the music and everthing. With the release of Echos of Faydwer expansion I was so Hoping to get a new look at Unrest and when SoE finally finished the zone and released it that same uneasy feeling came back as I zoned into it for the first time. And the Jail in the underneath is still awesome when you have to call a guildie to unlock you.
