Beodin having a blinking contest with the Overlord of Freeport. The latest game update for EQ2 came out this week, Skyshrine and the level cap was raised to 92. But in more important news an old friend from EQ1 days has joined us, Dwarftossr! I’ve known D.T. since my first guild ever Legion of Light and then Noble Rage. A lot of good times. I hope he sticks around with us.
Viking Fellowship reached the milestone of Level 30 guild tonight. We now have a guild hall and five amenities. The five amenities we purchased were the guild bind statue, druid, wizard, travel globe and broker. At guild level 35 we earn two more spots. Now it’s time to get decorating!
MMO Viking’s guild “Viking Fellowship” hit level 24 tonight. Pretty good for only being 2 weeks old and having only 3 active guild members. We have been knocking out writs and conducting 3-man raids of Veeshan’s Peak to earn status. Level 30 guild is the current goal so we can buy ourselves a guild hall with 5 ammenities. It’s good having another goal to strive for in the game to keep me interested. Reddranth says he will join the three of us after we get the guild hall up and running. He can’t go back to being hardcore and needs his easy guild hall transportation options. I must admit I miss them, but it won’t be too much longer…
MMO Viking and his group of friends weren’t getting much out of our old guilds. Mostly due to small amount of guild members online and the ones that were online weren’t able to really help us in a group. So we decided to form our own small guild with just us. Viking Fellowship the Everquest 2 guild on Butcherblock server is where you can find us and all are welcome to join. We formed on 14 February 2012 and tonight 17 February 2012 we are a Level 14 guild. Level 30 is required for a guildhall and that is the goal at the moment. I am enjoying having something else to work towards considering Beodin the Beastlord is max level and max alternate advancement points.
Tonight I finished Beodin’s Epic quest for his Fabled Claws of Khati Sha. Thanks go out to Nindakin, Reddranth, Neecrol, Colossus and Gaealiege for the help along the way. The quest was very long and sometimes difficult. I was worried about the final solo fight against the Ogre Viax because I heard it was difficult. I learned all I could about it before the encounter and even re-did some AA line with Colossus’s suggestions for the fight. The fight was long but in the end I never fell below 75% health using spiritual stance and my Stag warder spamming the two heals I had. I’m sure my max aa’s helped too. Mythicals are next!
MMO Viking is back! After a long computer issue related problem I’m back to Norrath with a new computer. An ASUS G74S Gaming Laptop which screams and I love. But best of all I’m back and playing a Barbarian Beastlord complete with a White-wolf warder of course, just like the old days in Everquest 1! Huzzah!! I’ve been back a few weeks and just recently got Beodin the Beastlord to Level 90 with max AA’s 320. Next on the To-do List is getting Beodin his Epic Claws. This latest expansion in EQ2 has MMO Viking written all over it. In addition to bringing back the Beastlord class it has player made dungeon building and you can reforge your weapons with a bunch of different particle effects. I’m thinking about doing the Wurmslayer Heritage quest and slapping a awesome effect on it. I’m having a blast so far. 2012 is going to be fun in Norrath.
It’s been a few months since my last update. I really enjoyed Destiny of Velious but I have finished almost all the solo stuff and a lot of the group stuff in the expansion. The last couple months I’ve been a little burned out on EQ2 and haven’t been playing much. It’s from a variety of reasons. Capping Beoromir’s level and AA points, working at my job longer hours, going to the beach more often, buying a new huge TV and playing a lot of XBOX 360 on it, and running out of content that I haven’t done. I kind of wish EQ2 had 2000 AA points like EQ1, so I could constantly be improving my character even if its only by .0000001% at a time. Hopefully I can find some more stuff that catches my interest in game to do because I want to get back to playing soon. Maybe old quests or group dungeons for upgrades on equipment. We shall see. Here’s a screenshot of Beoromir right before he and Queen Antonia Bayle have a make-out session.
Tonight I finished Beoromir’s griffon quests and his little griffawn pet became a rideable griffon. I purchased the collector’s edition of Destiny of Velious that came with the alternate griffon mount which looks pretty nice. Beoromir with Reddranth, Nindakin, Neecrol and Zalamar all reached the alternate advancement cap by grinding to 300 aa’s in Sebilis today. Went fast with the double xp EQ-wide plus advancement potions. Was a very fun day of adventuring and we finished it off with a Tower of Frozen Shadows run.
Reddranth and Beoromir square off with glowing swords. The colors remind me of lightsabers belonging to Darth Vader, Luke Skywalker and whatever jedi Samuel L. Jackson played. MMO Viking is going to stick with Beoromir as his main character and to just keep Beobo around as an alt to fart around on. I have decided to betray from evil Brigand to good Swashbuckler on Beoromir too. Mostly due to my love of AE damage. A few other benefits are I get to move to New Halas, also known as Viking-ville. And I will earn more aa points with the betrayal questline. Beoromir is currently at 226 alternate advancement points. The drawbacks are I will have to decorate a new house. I will have to acquire alot of new Master spells. I’m looking forward to the change and the learning of how to play a new class. It should be fun!
Almost Superbowl time! MMO Viking is rooting for Greenbay Packers this Superbowl. I dislike the Pittsburg Steelers due to them and the referees beating the Seattle Seahawks in Superbowl XL. Also due to Big-Ben’s douchbaggery with his trapping co-eds in bathrooms strategy. In Everquest 2 news I’m using the new EQ2 iphone app that allows you to look at characters stuff and also chat with guild and any other channel while not even in-game. Pretty cool. I’ve used it to mess with Nindakin already.
