Directions To SoD

Saturday, December 27th, 2008

How do I get to The Void in Seeds of Destruction? That is the question. And thanks to Thoro of Valorguard I have the answer!

Head to the Guild Hall and buy a Broken Timestone and head to the Plane of Time. When you zone in turn to the Northwest and look for a lightning bolt. Click on that. That will take you to The Void.

Thank you Thoro from Valorguard!

Franklin Teek - Hotzone NPC

Thursday, August 28th, 2008

There is an NPC named Franklin Teek in the Plane of Knowledge that will tell you what the current hot zones are and also give you some quests for them. I have not tried the quests yet. He is located right in front of the zone in to the Guild Loby.

EQ Traders Corner In-Game Recipe Lookup

Wednesday, August 27th, 2008

EQTC added a function to their site a while back that allows players to look up items, and recipes for items, directly from the EQ chat window. 

To look up items from inside EQ: 

Step 1: Type the following into your chat bar: /www eqtraders.com/i?

Step 2: Then click the item in your inventory that you want to look up and hit enter.

Step 3: Your default Web browser will open up directly to the EQTC page for that item.

Notice that letter i right before the question mark? That i means item. Use this to get information directly on the item. If you want to find out what recipes actually use an item, use this command instead:

To look up recipes from inside EQ:

Step 1: Type the following into your chat bar: /www eqtraders.com/r?

Step 2: Then click the item in your inventory that you want to look up and hit enter.

Step 3: Your default Web browser will open up directly to the EQTC page that lists recipes for that item.

Cross Server Channel Joins

Wednesday, April 9th, 2008

I had to ask this the other night because I forgot how to do it. I was playing an alt on Bertox and wanted to join chat channels on The Nameless server. It’s really pretty easy:

 Join Single Channel:
/join servername.channelname:password

AutoJoin Single Channel:
/autojoin servername.channelname:password

AutoJoin Multiple Channels:
/autojoin servername.channelname:password,servername.channelname:password

Autojoining channels will not join you to them when you issue the autojoin command. It will only join you to them the next time you log in.

Update: Channel autojoin information is saved in your eqclient.ini file in the [Defaults] section as ChannelAutoJoin=<channel-list>.

What Levels Can I Group With?

Tuesday, April 1st, 2008

I use this formula for two+ boxing characters all the time.  Take the lower level character and multiply 1.5 and thier level and round the result.  For example a level 50 character would still get experience with a level 75 character (1.5 x 50 = 75).

If you want to know the lower limit you can group with you would take your level and divide by 1.5 (75 / 1.5 = 50).

 Simple

What Are SoW Potions Called Now?

Sunday, March 23rd, 2008

Here is a question I can never seem to remember the answer to. What is the new name for the old Blood of the Wolf potions? The new name is Philter of the Wolf. Thank you to Rainah for answering that question for me :)

Who Do I Give Tokens To For Bags?

Thursday, March 20th, 2008

I usually see people asking either who they turn tokens into to get bags or who to turn bags into to get tokens to sell. That would be Caerlyna in the bazaar. She is located at -21 x 1 in the center area that leads to all other parts of the bazaar.

Who Sells Trader Satchels?

Monday, March 17th, 2008

I see this question often enough asked in the bazaar that I figured I could do a short post on it. Merchant Tekrama sells the Trader’s Satchels that allow you to sell you goods to other players. He is located in the bazaar at location 72 x -41. If you are looking to make some money, here are some tips on earning platinum.

Trader Satchels can also be made with platinum thread, a backpack pattern, a high quality [cat, bear, rockhopper] pelt steel boning and the backpack dye used in handmade backpacks.
