Things I miss :)
Things I miss :)
Here are a few of the old time things I miss seeing (well some of them I don't really miss, but they are fun to think about!)
1) Vit death!
2) Fighting in silence the OLD way silence was! (You know what it was if you did it.)
3) The House of the Helpless 1e of the inn (with the well to put newbie gear in.)
4) RDF's once they put in all of the justice code (where did they all go?)
5) Bands of Aided Flight! (I never had one, but they were cool.)
Add any more old time things you can think of that aren't around anymore!

Big Enchantments at start of Sojourn2.
I loved the fact that I had a +3+3 frying pan for S2. Really put those MS swords to shame! I recall one of the gods (forget who hehe) looking at me in my spanky green superhero costume at 3w and snickering at my frypan....then when I said "hey it's 3,3!" they replied. "Hmmmmm, I'll have to put a stop to that!"...Sorry people who were getting serious weapons made :P
Oh yer....
KILLING PODS!!!

Breaking the crap out of damage exp. Ah, archery.
My cookware collection.
Sitting 3w arguing with Waelos about min/maxing our gear.
Always being the last one out of the silence room in vault.
CRs at the Orc Chief.
Writing roleplay stories.
Writing roleplay stories, it counts for two.
Leading no-invoker zones.
Windsong.
Leading TF like it was my JOB!
Soloing Flames. Figure THAT one out.
Doing 90% of Demi with just Valeos. Major Para.
Sigh.

Things i miss most are:
Walking 3 west of a fountain and finding a shimmering portal and stepping in (causing havac)
Killing the orc chief i think it was for killing me all the fudging time and laughing when dranak walked in and getting blinded!
Auctioning till my eyes are falling out..
Yelling at dranak
yelling at dranak (hey it was fun)

I think most of the high level things I miss have been stated of what I know but I think the best ones that I miss doing are:
1) Everybody killing Malice (sometimes it would work and when not killing all the newbies in the area)
2) Killing in SS only to raise alignment and nuking everything to watch it get toasted.
3) Sitting at 3W screaming looking for ress. any clerics available (since I did it a lot , but I do it now in Everquest so I think it equals out :P)
4) Going back to your guild to see: You are about ready to attain your level.
5) Fighting anything in silence especially in JOT Raid.
I think that sums up other than what others have written..Oh yea I forgot 1. The wonderful CR's we had in CC lol j/k NOT!!!!

Maybe this isn't gone, but I still miss doing it since I haven't played in so long:
Traveling down to Halfling town... it always seemed like such an adventure having to run through the troll hills and catch the ferries. I used to do that thing just for fun!

stumbling onto a set of (what I thought was spanky) eq with my level 8 anti-paladin.
*Maybe someone remembers this sword...I wish I could remember descrip. think it was bone, but when you wield it, you'd turn invis and blind. ring any bells?
*Necro guild in WD...couldn't you teleport between the wd guild and bs guild? I don't remember anymore
*Ogre guards in occupied village that assisted against all other mobs if you were ogre.
*Berzerkers - would some god take pity on this poor ogre and remove the berzerker guild from Faang. Every time I walk by it I get misty.

- Doing the wraiths outside Citadel (with infravision) for exp, and fumbling a Sword of Tormenting 13 rooms inside. (Try pulling out a light to pick it up, as a Barb!)
- Sister exp.
- CC before Undead had Ultra.
- Troll/Ogres spamming directions from East/South gates, to make it to UM before they get hit. (And grouping with them in UM)
- A dagger called 'Fangs of the Serpent' (I think thats how it was, been awhile!)
- the infravision battle to get the above dagger
- My disappointment when my Necro/Anti got booted from WD.
- Real monks! Hit hard, tank better (well for mid-low exp anyway) Oh, and let's not forget the only person who could solo Automaton(sp?) at the time! (Wasn't it Thruar that lost his eq because soembody sent an elemental down on his corpse, and Auto didn't aggro it?)
- Sitting in the Paradise and gating random locations on prime with Elscint (both outcast), seeing what interesitng stuff we can find on the ground - and hitting the Great Fountain of Waterdeep.
- The Blood Horde guild adventurers.
And dozens of other things..

< T: undead TC: few scratches E: tiamat EC: few scratches>
You utter a series of strange arcane words to mighty Doombringer..
The sword eagerly responds as black tendrils of power flow down the blase into y

Your eyes glow black, your movements blur and accelerate to unbelievable speeds!
You find yourself flinging about, striking over and over with incredible rage
The tempo increases, you feel POWER beyond comprehention flow into your attack!
You barely slash Tiamat.

Ok, things I miss:
1) The dwarf homtetown being by SS. It only took a few walks from way up north before I gave in and rolled up a barbarian so I could be in WD. But with a hometown like Griffon's Nest(best one imho), it's worth the walk.
2) Myranthea. What a fun midlevel zone that was. The tracking aggro mobs(Sir Morley and Co) that had folks running down the Salt Rd to the inn of Myranthea. Getting attacked in Breale for being a spellcaster("We don't like your kind!"). My map of the River Krent which only goes for two rooms. Half the party died in the first room. The other half fled into the second room and died there. Sir Montel turning into a dragon if you entered his camp...ok, so I don't miss that part. But, it was really nice to see a fun complex zone where folks around 15th-25th could go and be challenged. I was sad to see it go, but the world is filling up pretty nicely.
3) TinTin. Sure ZMud is much, much better, but I don't think TinTin ever crashed on me.
4) College. It was much easier to play when you had half the party in the lab room next to you. And RL got in the way much less back then. Plus half of the old party doesn't play any more.
Now to turn it around....things I don't miss:
1) Logging in one morning and seeing the "Toril is gone" message. That day plain sucked. But life went on. Well, until Sojourn started up.
2) Twinks. I think the mud population has improved greatly. In my opinion, many more people role play nowadays. And folks are generally more fun to play with.
3) Walking forever down a road to just find out it didn't go anywhere. The world is so much more populated with zones.
