I have the same problem with earning items. I play solo/molo; always have and always will. I do have friends willing to help me out if it is something I really want, which is a very nice thing to have. My problem is I don't like grouping, even with friends, b/c I know I do not play properly in the group or raid dynamics. I do not have macros set up for that kind of play and I am much slower. Maybe someone will read this and think about making appearance and crafting items available to be obtained via Solo Heroic zones.
the quest is in Kingdom of Sky and is called Blood of the Brood. This is the hat Defilers get from Hoo'Loh, after it has been "customized".
Bag of Grind (a random item most grinded for) you did say that the sky was the limit Bag of Shiney (a random rare shiney) remember you did say the sky was the limit. Bag of Familiar (leveling item) More framed art (tough sexy men in leather gear). Little Cherub Wings (mounts) with different particle effects like was done with the hearts (please no flames). EQ2 T-shirt that my toons can wear. And a war horse (natural looking) mount (please no more flames) with armor sets.
Players who bought the Collectors edition of the original EQ2 for launch were granted a few extra /claims to enjoy. One of them was "A wrapped painting" \aITEM 1598688090 492485756:a wrapped painting\/a which only let players choose from a number of paintings only when they opened it. The appearance window didn't exist at this time, so nobody knew what they were actually choosing until they finally put the painting into their houses. As such, there are a few paintings within that have not been recreated for various holiday events like the Chronoportals or Heroes Festival. Some of them have been released with new frames. Some of the paintings have been recreated. \aITEM 355200966 1717908062:The Power of Lucan\/a was recreated as \aITEM 249571521 1686290814:The Might of Freeport\/a with the Days of Summer merchant. \aITEM 1826830461 1993652612:Feral Protector\/a was recreated as \aITEM 2100254785 1731114424:Lazy Drain Guardians\/a with the Summer Jubilee event. \aITEM 714773907 -1457762598efenders of the Overlord\/a is now \aITEM 349936888 -116567988:A Relentless Iksar\/a from Heroes Festival. \aITEM -202930740 -1279075989:Upon Reflection\/a is now \aITEM 700021781 -600300438:Tranquil Reflection\/a from the Summer Jubilee event. \aITEM -670007883 -1933559085awn: The Blackburrow Bridge\/a is now \aITEM -889148190 -841049398awn Along The Coldwind Coast\/a from Days of Summer \aITEM -1084210983 1790253702:Empress Anassa of the Oakmyst\/a is now \aITEM -2128524878 1905342693ortrait of an Oakmyst Dryad\/a from the Summer Jubilee event.

I've said it before and I'll keep saying it until it happens: World Event Items. This whole "Well, WE were here when it was possible to get this cool thing; where were YOU, o new player, o old recurring fart (sneer, sneer)? " bit is getting old. X-P Uwk
I tried to buy the topiary lion on EQ for my new accounts, I was told I was too late. They didn't want my money.
On EQ1? Woo; I thought they were more sensible, since everyone's saying how much better they are over there than here (largely based on numbers)... :-/ Uwk who, personally, has never liked EQ1 all that much and far prefers this game, but each their own
Topiary animals, similar to the ice sculpture animals but done in greenery,natch, would be a great addition.
I played EQ for a decade. I came over here, and I like this game better. The only aggrivation is when I go to Phantom Island for part of Yun Zi's quests.
Came into Norrath early on? My buddies, who tried to get me into the EQniverse (and succeeded here, after some initial hesitation on my part ["Oh, great; more 'post-apocalyptic' crud 'cause it's the 2000s..."] ;->), must've done EQ1 since like Beta; definitely Beta for this one. The man of the house worked for SOE for years. Uwk
I started EQ in 2004. I would have tried earlier... but I had only a 32-meg video card in 1999. I spin right around.
I came in back in 2006...on a Win98 machine...on -- DIAL-UP. :-/ Talk about a nightmare; still wasn't as bad as "Every building is another zone! /giggle " City of Heroes. X-P The third game I was in back then was WoW, and they had very little zoning required, and a lot less egregious set of requirements than EQ2 had, which is among the reasons I was with them for so long (they lost me with that stupid "Cataclysm" story line, which basically made it the equivalent of "WoW2," imho. If they'd officially had WoW1 and WoW2 [I know there's "WoW Classic," but it's not "official"?], I might still be there, playing EQ2 and WoW1 ;->). Uwk who thinks that if only City of Heroes had separated out their character creation thing and tweaked it so it could be used for Sci-Fi games, Modern games, Fantasy games, etc. as a 3rd-party thing, they might not have gone bankrupt at NCSoft (best thing about City of Heroes was character creation!)... ;->
