Fenier, the current Class correspondent for Druids of EverQuest has posted an SoF introductory guide for Druids. It cover basics such as how to get to the new zones, to the specifics of the new armor sets for druids, new spells, new AAs, new AA alt activate numbers, etc.
If you are an active EQ Druid or an inactive one planning to return to see what all the hub bub is about, I highly recommend reading his post first.
After seven years of playing EverQuest with a Druid for my main, I left the game last year. It hadn’t aged well and there were shinier worlds in which to play a Druid. Plus, itemization was an issue for casual players in EQ and I was tired of being perpetually behind.
Exploring the shattered continents of Norrath 500 years later, the world of Azeroth and lands of Middle-earth have filled my nights since, but I missed the game that was such a large part of my gaming life. I also missed my small family guild which had scattered to the four winds of MMOdom.
One German LotRO Lore-master has been putting out entertaining and informative movies for the class. The soundtrack he uses are great and he explains everything in English subtitles.
First, he shows how a level 12 Lore-master can solo elites:
Then, he tackles the frustrating level 15 Lore-master class quest. It shows you exactly what you have to do and how to do it. Bonus: great sound track.
I’ve been remiss in posting about Druids lately as I have been busy writing about them elsewhere. As you can see from my sidebar, I write for (and now co-lead) WoW Insider, the number one news blog covering World of Warcraft. For the past month I’ve also been writing for a new site owned by the same people which finally launched today: Massively.com.
Massively covers news of not just one MMO, like WoW Insider, but all MMOs. Yes, all of them. I’m overseeing most of their coverage for Lord of the Rings Online and EverQuest 2. Yes, big surprise.
I haven’t forgotten my Druid posts here and will be able to update a little more frequently now that Massively is finally launched.
I plan on writing up a page on Lore-master non-combat pets complete with pics and maps, but until then you can find a good starter guide at LotRO Vault.
Confirmed non-combat pets so far: hare, sparrow, turtle, dog, cat and fox. Two have yet to be found.
You can’t have a non-combat pet and a combat pet out at the same time. And you can rename your pet by targeting it and typing /pet rename (newpetname). More info in the linked article.
I actively play Druids across many games: EQ, EQ2 (Fury), LotRO (Lore-master) and WoW (feral cat). And I write about it. Here. Whenever the servers for all four games are down at the same time.
