Sitting here considering not going to new years party in order to play a brad McQuaid MMO in 2024.
Yeah, I'm getting some of the old tingleberries going. I hope to fuck they fix the codex and spell vendors though. If the tooltip says new skellie spell is supposed to upgrade the old one, then make the old one disappear from the codex.

When, and on what should I be using mastery points as a necro?

Im not entirely sure you can use them. I cant on my class, and I thought that was across the board - but I could be wrong.

Mastery doesn't work at present, so just ignore the Mastery Points stuff.

Wild Lands, the starting zone for elves and halflings, is pretty damn terrible. Not much in the way of landmarks and it's very easy to get lost.

The merman starting area is similar. It seems to have something resembling mob progression. The farther away from the class vendors you get the higher level the mobs are. Unfortunately necro is still too squishy to fully explore all the things yet. Pet can't taunt so far, so the fighting rotation is pretty simple. Abilities to get mob in. Maybe str drain. Then life tap and refresh inflict nausea when it wears off. Once I hit 10 I will give summoner a try too.

Did a quick and dirty starter guide for folks getting in, or maybe someone wanting an easier solo ride to 6:

If you started out evil, gonna have to kinda figure it it out, but basically take the ramp out east of the necro trainer around lvl 3-4, and avoid the cultists if up, and the skellys if up, there's guides, sorry.

Otherwise, starting from the main newbie town, get your harvesting tools from the first quest you get, if it's unclear markers on the map below, bank for an easy landmark. You might want to grab the bind, I didn't mark it, it's south from the portal on the other bluff/cliff behind the monk trainers.Then go to the portal indicated on the map.

The next map is where you can do loops around killing everything, especially quest related stuff. I've indicated where the level ranges are roughly, lower content more for 3 under, upper teir 4+, YMMV. Mobs of note: Hornets - Bees Wax for bags. Skinning Animals of all kinds for pelts (bags) Hunter initiates after casters have done the pre req quests, 85c a turnin repeatable quest, common coin drop. Plenty of every Teir1 Resource, especially Jute (BAGS) Except trees, they sometimes spawn randomly though.

This will take you to 6 pretty easy, there's vendors right here, and if you're slightly autistic like me, plenty of climbing, sprinting and swimming training to be gained here. This my basic gameplan when I start an alt, so hope it's of some help to my forum bros.

Anyone on who can send me a guild invite?
Think Hekotat Hekotat will be online soon enough if no one else is on. This is literally the first time Ive played with most of these guys, so dont look at me.

Once you're in the guild - if you die to something like that, and it happens - corpse summons.. hey wait, arent you a necro? are easy enough. Also, you can just pull on one of us to drag your corpse if you cant find a summons.

Playing right now is the most authentic starting EQ experience you can have. Not because the game is just like EQ but because it’s the first time since like 2001 where an MMO is growing naturally by word of mouth instead of just launching with 250k people and servers crashing. It’s just like the old days where every day there were a pile of fresh newbs in Freeport trying it for the first time, not everyone knew every secret and there was a slow natural trickle through the levels rather than a mass race to max.

Got to like 3-4 this morning on a Dire Lord. Honestly felt pretty easy considering how many folks were howling about the difficulty online.

Kinda random, but curious how folks feel about the camera controls. Feels similar to WoW except that the panned camera doesn't snap back behind when moving. Doesn't bother me because you can just right click to snap it, but curious how others feel.

Alright, wrapped up my 150 hours in poe2 and feel like I'm willing to wait a season or before jumping in again. Got pantheon installing bros. My body is ready to play this game that won't ever exist.
