Couldn't Resist 2nd Breakfast

Hitting the Streets on my Main

I’m hitting the streets of Norrath on my main this weekend.  My level 59 Illusionist has been on the shelf for several weeks.  I’m actually ready to do some questing/leveling on her.  I will be accompanied by one of my readers who joined me on EQ2X and liked it enough to sub gold.  He’s been leveling like a demon to catch up to my main while I’ve been crafting like a fiend.  Now that we’re close enough in level to do some duo runs, we’re going to hit Sinking Sands.  First stop for me is to get a few of the aquatic plushies.  *Smile*

This weekend is also Moonlight Enchantments in EQ2/X.  I so have to participate this time.  It will be the first one I’ve been around for since I went crafting insane. Must have me some preeecious items for more – yeah, decorating. LOL I honestly can’t help myself!  

It’s so Preeecious

Speaking of preeecious, I couldn’t resist a new item in the Station Cash marketplace.  I tried to resist buying it, I really did.  But the “2nd Breakfast Backpack” got me at hello.  I didn’t need the extra bag space.  I simply wanted the look.

For quite some time, I’ve wanted a cute outfit for my carpenter who never levels and therefore doesn’t require real gear.  I’ve searched and asked around about obtaining items that would make me look like a carpenter but there’s not much.  When I saw this item I decided to do a worker, traveling salesman sort of look.  To go with it I bought the Freethinker’s Hat and the Orange Citizen’s crate of clothing.

If I could buy a tinkerer’s sort of mount Sony would get even more money from me but that’s not available in the CS.  I’d have to get to 400 Tinkering to use the mount I’d love to have for her so I’ve added leveling Tinkering into my future plans.

Thanks, I like the look and was ready to ditch my Halloween spiderweb clothes. :-)

P.S. Except that I don't like that they make you bald just because you're wearing a hat! Ew.

Indeed hihi, most of those SC hats have that!
Saves you having to do your hair every time you log in though ;o)

EQ2 crafting will always be for me a base standard that all future MMO's need to meet or exceed!

I agree 100%. I didn't mind the click-n-go crafting in WOW because the adventuring side of the game was among the best I've ever experienced and you had cooking, fishing and fist aid to deal with too. But once I got tired of raiding and the shine wore of faction grinding and BGs, it would have been wonderful to be able to turn to an in depth crafting and player house feature set to keep me interested in the game.

I always thought they could have added something like EQ2 as an optional progression path. Keep the click go for the base professions but add player house and accompanying professions that are more detailed like EQ2 as a 3rd end game option. I'd still be playing WOW if they had.
