Things You Should Know Before Playing on Teek TLP

this is a video that I have wanted to make for a little bit of time I didn't realize that it would take this long to have another TLP that was similar to Mischief with rule sets but playing on a Mischief type TLP AKA te which is upcoming here in the next few days it's a little bit different so there's some things that maybe if you've already played on Mischief you're already aware of but for the new players trying out the random bonus loot for the first time there are a few things that you should probably know first and foremost you do not need to rush to the end game to get good gear a lot of times when you play EverQuest because we played so often that we Min maxed everything and so we rush to the end of the game and then we're bored for 2 months unless you're joining a raiding Guild there's really no reason to do that unless you're joining with friends and rushing with the raiding Guild there's no reason to do that and even if you take your time you could always designate one character to be power leveled by some friends in your guild or pay for power leveling services to get that character up to raid however there's absolutely no other reason to rush to max level unless that's what you enjoy doing slow the down on the random tradable loot you can sure as hell take your time because some of the best loot in the game will be cheap pretty fast especially when people start raiding and you'll still be able to get the best loot even if you don't raid there's no need to be on raids anymore whatsoever if you're only raiding to get the loot meaning if you don't enjoy raiding but you raid because you want the best gear you don't need to do that anymore that loot will be for sale if you need it right away it's going to be pretty pricey for example when the first dark blade of warlord started dropping in the plan's power a mischief and the first one that I seen available in trade meaning that the guild members were no longer buying it because they had it that was selling for 38 Chrono now a month later I ended up buying one finally for my warrior alt for 15 16 Chrono but then as it got closer to the gates of Discord dropping because obviously the brutish blade of balance is in that expansion price of dark blade of the warlord was maybe down to 56 so that does not seem very affordable in terms of real cash however in terms of it being during that era the best tanking weapon in game it was quite the steel and because everything is tradable droppable you're actually able to sell things in the mid-level range or things that you can one group for a decent amount of cash in order to get Kronos to buy items like that and once you get items like that it really opens up the possibilities for you even if you're just playing solo and you're geared out with a dark blade of the warlord having never been on a raid and your main tanking it allows you to do a lot more things than you traditionally would be able to do if you just had group gear so take that into consideration you will be able to afford best and Slot items if not second third best and Slot which is usually good enough for most of my alts you do not need to raid unless you absolutely love raiding there's no reason to burn out on raids unless that's some type of achievement you're going for the very first type of questions that I usually get asked are about the rare spawns and loot tables now there are not good resources for the random loot tables magello has one but it's a hidden resource meaning you have to actually have subscription to see random loot tables that might be worth it depending on how much extra cash you have somebody else made a Excel spreadsheet with the name mobs and the loot that they could drop and loot tables ahead to that's another resource other than that you'll have to pay good attention there's stuff in forms and other areas that you could look to find the loot tables the random bonus loot gets rid of you having to sit in guck to farm an fbss because an fbss has a chance of dropping from other rare spawns generally speaking rare mobs on the same level range in the same difficulty will tend to have access to similar loot tables this gets rid of people hogging up camps and farming items with the exception of a lot of the Epic items and the Epic weapons I do not believe are tradable you want to make a bit of money you should do what I did get into farming so there will be some things that you have have to sit for and but for the most part the random bonus loot set and tradable loot makes it really easy to catch up really easy to play really easy to get geared really easy to make money whatever you want to do there's no rush I remember when I played on the live servers that I always felt like I had to be at the raids I was a main tank in one of the big guilds back on the live servers and from 2000 2005 and I felt like I always had to be the raids to get my RAID attemp up to get my dkp so I could get good items don't have to do any that anymore that stuff's done with put your hands up no what I said no you're here to have fun so take as much time as you need wherever you need to be there's no rush one thing you'll notice is non-stop server announcements announcing so and so player killed whatever raid boss now at the beginning of the launch you're going to see real raid targets I'm going to refer to them as but take actual guilds to kill but if you see over and over again the same type of raid messages appearing later in the expansion you know that somebody's either small man rating which I'll explain that or they've found a way to box or do them with one group and they're just doing their dz's because that mob either has really good loot or access to a good loot table it seemed that in almost every expansion there was at least one Oddball way to get really good loot for example planes power again the shade of vaxer or vakis or whatever in the plane of nightmare people were duoing him if not soloing him had access to phase 4 time loot they actually nerfed Mischief partway through so that didn't drop as much but it's the same with the plane of fire minis a lot of those had access to time Loot and then you see people one grouping the seventh Hammer over and over again they were one grouping grus like those people are not back flagging and at that point the actual loot that grus and those mobs would normally drop is not really usable because there's so much gear on the server they're farming those things specifically for the random bonus loot drops pay attention to that because there might be some things that you could two box to six box or small man raid that canect you some profits and allow you to sell or get gear for your characters having said that all gear is tradable especially within your account so what does that mean for you during the time when your characters are locked to the dzs and not the accounts which I can't remember if it starts off like that or later on that happens a lot of people were making alts of the exact same class on the exact same account why would you do that besides just the Epic you could take a best and Slot geared Warrior pass every single item to your alt Warrior on that same account I've got the power and then go raid make money on the small man raids or do cool things of that nature so a lot of people had a duplicate character as you know if they had a main character whether it's a tank healer whatever inside of a guild they also had an ALT character on the same Account max level Max AAS are as high as they get them and they were transferring the gear from their raid main to their alt to do hard things separate dzs and whatnot this is a very good idea so if you get to the point where you are raiding and there's nothing left to do in the game make an ALT on that account that's the exact same class and then look for small man rates one of the other things that might be different is Guild function especially rating and the economy a lot of the guilds actually have a platinum SL Chrono bidding system for rate items that drop they'll go through a raid gather up all the items and then they'll bid on them at the end now that may seem kind of funky cuz some people that have been there have high rate attends maybe you feel like oldfashioned they deserve gear more than people that just show up and have a lot of money but when it really comes down to it the more money spent on that raid for items even if it's somebody that shows up just once in a while for an item the more money that gets split at the raid because what they do is they gather up all those funds and then they send payouts to everybody that was at the raid so you end up being rich from all the people coming in and buying the gear which allows you to just buy the gear or bid money the next time it drops so dkp for the most part unless it's a private Guild or group has kind of been eliminated it's not a very efficient system when you can buy everything the next way you're really going to make money is with small man raids small man raids are typically several people boxing anywhere from three to six characters sometimes two groups so they'll get you know 5 to 10 actual people together which ends up being at least 30 well-geared characters and then they will do separate dzs or Raid targets which have become trivial at some point when everybody's geared and then they will get all the raid Loot and they will do the same thing they'll allow you to bid on items usually at discount uh inside of the small man and at the end they take all the money they have someone sell all the rest of the remaining items and they split that with everybody on the small man raids that is one unique way that people were making money on the Mischief TLP and that's something that's going to be popular on teque which is the purpose of having those alts that you can pass gear to even if it's on another account having said that there are an array of resources that can help you we'll try to go through as many as we can so the first one we're going to go through is mischief and it looks like somebody added te randomization name/ raids this is the Excel spreadsheet I cannot remember the guy's name should be easy to find this will be linked in my description and this just has the rare spawns and some of the different loots they have access to a lot of tradeable items kunar raids kunar name Villas luckland pop raids so here we go right here quanas fire tale is one of the birds that are in PL of fire outside of the castle as you go through this is considered mini you usually stop doing this pretty quickly in the regular expansion and there's no reason to really do it anymore except when this comes up on teak or a Mischief as you can see here they also have access to r x plan of time Phase 5 loot so that means they will drop their regular loot the elemental mini and some loot possibly from rid sack in Phase 5 and here you see Gras PL of disease easily one groupable once you're well geared out and have AA has access to phase 4 time loot so there are mobs like that that should not have access to higher tier loot but they do and that's really why the loot becomes so cheap and so prevalent is because of things like this easier mobs you're on a plane of fire mini boss and it's dropping loot from plane of time pretty much self-explanatory but this is one of the resources that you could use here's another website I like to use it's EQ items.com I don't know how actual accurate it is but I do enjoy using it at least to see how it thinks the comparisons are you can select your current gear level and whatnot glass race expansion and then search best and Slot some of these might not be in the exact order but I do like how they score everything so since you have access to all this best and Slot type gear you can use something like this to figure out what type of items you're looking to buy and how far up that that it ranks on the charts and then we have raid loot.com and this is a more of a general type search you could put the specific classes in here what slot you're looking for and then you can actually weight stuff so if you're looking for the best weapon ratio for a warrior you can see that this includes all the way up to the latest expansion however it has the source list so we could say if we're in the older stuff we could say we only want pop and older and search and there you see the dark blade of the warlord show up here's the ratio the proc and some of the other things that you can look at you can also use this to try to find items for your character since it now becomes the possibility of just buying items for your characters so those are some of my favorite ones there's going to be more that I'm going to link in the description below these will include Alakazam which is a very good database not as good as like the woe heads but still a good database to look up things like Quest and NPC info inside of Everest we'll have mag jello.com that paid subscription to see the random loot drops from the mobs we'll have EQ resource we have EQ maps. info which is Bray walls or Bri walls Maps you're going to want to have that installed before you play site called TLP Das auctions I don't know if it's live or if it will bring it up but there should at least be a site similar to this if this one doesn't come back to life for the release where it actually monitors the trade chat in East Commons or in the bizar later on and it will tell you what the going price has been and what things have possibly sold for for items so when you're looking for Price checks that's what this site was used for we'll have things like raspers brown has information on each expansion progression the quest and stuff that you're going to want to do within each expansion and of course Elmer's guides that's a bunch of trade skill guides leveling guides EQ progression.com which is fairly new but this guy's really active and keeps his stuff up to date also has a Discord channel so you can get direct access to him has a lot of leveling type stuff a lot of raid type stuff just a very good resource and site that I use and from here you can go to my video on the Mischief rule set and why I think it is the future for EverQuest tlps or you can check out what the most popular classes were on the Mischief TLP back in October that video is also here as well
