Greetings everyone.
I would like to take this time to introduce myself. My names Andre, but during my time playing Everquest 2 I shall be known as Slyone. I have left FFXI due to the boredness of that game and have seeked EQ2 for my new venture.
I am always heard good things about Everquest in general, but have been a Final Fantasy Fan since I came across FF7. My character back on that game was BLM50/WHM25 with every job unlocked except SAM, his chars name was Slymage on the Bahamut server.
Alright enough about all that! Now, my goal here with EQ2, is to explore, have fun, and just take it at a speed that I want to. I would like to be a 'thief' type character where he can steal stuff, but I want him to be able to do damage. I have read over several articles and came across statements such as 'your race doesn't really affect your job that much' so..taking that into consideration I decided to go with a Male, Half Elf, who is a Scout.
I am good, but on the Island Of Refuge I believe (wherever you start first...) I made it off the boat, and am now killing these crabs for exp...I am level 4 right now. I was running around and happened to go into this area where these goblins were running around so I killed a crap load of these things, and some beetles too. I then went back 'into town' I think, near some tower and I 'camped' there and logged for the night. I'm gonna jump back on here in a minute and continue my journey.
A few questions that I do have are: Is there bazaars in this game? Like on FFXI, if you wanted to sell something, you'd go to the menu/choose bazaar/select the item and assign price/then just close out. I bag would pop up next to your name showing that your bazaar is open. Is there anything like that is this game?
Also, to be a thief, which is the best sub-class? (sorry if using wrong term) I want to be a Swashbuckler I think cause they are slick and sly. Again I just wanna steal stuff and have fun.
Also I remembered when I first got on the guy said to kill this sort of goblin, and I remember when I went out to that field I killed a crap load of those same named goblins...hopefully that completed the quest? I've come across a few other quests too, like collecting shells? then bone shards or something? I've been harvesting and fishing as my skill goes up too =D
I don't really know where else to go...for now lol.
Sorry to sound so noobish, but hey! I am ^^
thanks for your time,
Slyone
