While Everquest has been downloading and downloading, I have been reading all the returning player info I can find and I think I have a plan of sorts. I was hoping anyone could correct any serious flaws or offer any other suggestions.
First of all I am a level 70 Shaman, 600ish AA, in DoN group gear. 100s of creator missions and I have all of the upgrades I could buy from the DoN merchants. In other words my gear is a joke, but I do have at least the core AA.
First I plan to buy the lvl 59 shaman res, because OMG that would have made life easier during the first few years I played. Do we get any upgrades to that spell?
I plan to hit Bastion of Thunder to reacquaint myself with the game mechanics and get my UI sorted. I also need to farm some pp since I think I gave all my money away when I left 4-5 years ago. BoT was easy for me to solo before I left and I don't think it has changed. Once I get enough cash (don't know how much I need) I plan to get a tank merc, and get to level 72 for the next pet. At that point I will try and farm as much elaborate defiant as I can, it seems like the elegant will be beyond my farming ability, but I will be saving my plat to try and buy any upgrades as well. After that I should have a better feel for the game, and then into TSS, sundering springs and vergalid mines.
That should keep me busy for a few weeks at least.
Any advice or suggestions MUCH APPRECIATED.
