Here's six simple things to remember to optimize your customer support encounter!
Fansite Finds!
Clockwork gamer is back in the saddle once again after a long vacation, and they're already up to speed with some outstanding articles! The first is a great feature about developer to player communication and the troubles and prizes therein! The second is in regards to some thoughts from others about how to get into level-based chat in EQII and the exclusivity of that chat to certain folks... If you want to see some great articles, be sure to make Clockworkgamer.com a stop on your interweb travels!
Awesome guides keep coming from TenTonHammer! This week, we get a great guide for those that love to harvest as well as those that simply need "that ONE rare". If you need to find that reclusive rare harvest, or if you've found something rare and shiny but don't know what it's for, check here!
The guides don't stop there! TenTonHammer has even given us a great Fens of Nathsar Zone Guide, for those that traverse the wilds of Kunark! In this guide, you get to see the minimum level to get best benefit, a listing of MANY quests across the region as well as grouping and soloing opportunities!
Charasis and the Maiden's Chamber is a touch nut to crack, but our friend Brasse is one tough nutcracker! Not only has she offered us a GREAT map of that location, but there's even a comic to go with it! Zatrkorak, you silly iksar... will you ever learn?
Whatever you do, whever you go, make sure to plan your time for the Jethal Silverwing Show (especially this recent show titled "The Jethal Silverwing Show! Pretty in Pink"... Jethal in pink? I gotta see that, myself)! The fun starts at 10pm to 1am Eastern (7pm to 10pm Pacific), directly following EQ2's-day!
Game Update 44 is coming, and Niami DenMother from eq2.eqtraders.com has tradeskills covered! If you want to know what's changing, what's being added, and even some images of what's coming, be sure to check out her recent article!
Blog's Ahoy!
Do you want to play with the devs? Ratwarlock shows you not only what classes they're playing on the test server, but how to get there with the least amount of pain.
Leveling up is a daunting process, and ardwulfslair can attest to that! How does leveling up in EQII compare to other games, though? Is the process as tough to get through those higher levels?
Sometimes, you just need to start fresh, and if your guild needs a hole filled in the ranks, that can be an absolutely good reason to jump to a new character (like I need a reason...)! It's great too, to have a character "pet project", where you don't have to focus all your energy.
And that brings us to the end of another riveting Town Crier! If there's anything of entertaining or informational note that our entrepid traveller may of missed or if you simply want to chime in your two coppers, please drop in at the EQII Official Forums! Please remember to tip your waitress.
