Crushing Some Bones - WAR / BRD / SHM
A second loadout starts at level 10 wearing the level 50 gear, and Crushbone has exactly one thing worth the trip: the Spiky Splintmail and its permanent Bramble Coat click. The experience here is poor, and the zone's own Hunter achievement does not credit its named.
A second loadout, Warrior with Bard and Shaman, starting at level 10 and wearing the level 50 gear the main character already earned. That is the part worth watching if you have not done it: you start over and keep almost everything. Crushbone is the first stop and it has one item worth the trip, after which the honest verdict is that the experience here is poor and Befallen is simply better.
Building the Second Loadout
Copy the old one and you keep the interface.
- Copy the existing loadout when you make the new one. The whole UI comes across, so you are not rebuilding hotbars at level 10.
- Ogre for now, with the intention of turning this one into an Iksar once that unlock is paid for.
- Nearly all the gear carries over. One earring was not usable, so a Diamondine EarringEverQuest Legends

Everything else is Warrior gear and stays put. - Delete the old class's saved spell sets as you build the new ones, or the list turns into noise.
- Check Bash, Cleave and Kick are on the bar, since the copy does not guarantee it. Slam and Bash are the same thing.
- At 10 there is barely a spell set: Light Healing as the heal, Tainted Breath for damage, and the songs. No Bard charm and no heal over time yet, so two slots sit empty.
What Crushbone Is Actually For
One chest piece, and it is a clicky.
- The Spiky SplintmailEverQuest Legends
Spiky SplintmailATTUNEABLESlotCHESTAC12HP15STA+5Weight16SizeLARGEClass: WAR RNG SHD SHM BERRace: ALLEffect: Bramblecoat (Clicky)Any Slot, Casting Time: 2.5 secondsSource: Crushbone, Bloodgurgler is the reason to come. It dropped almost immediately here. - It right clicks for Bramble Coat, so it is a damage shield in an armour slot.
- Worthless to a Druid or Ranger, who get the spell anyway. Genuinely useful to every other loadout.
- The buff is permanent, so you only re-click it after you die.
- Around three points of damage shield plus the AC. Small, free, and it never falls off.
- A Velious belt carries the same click later, if not a tier up, so this is an early stand-in rather than a keeper.
The Experience Is Not Good
Said plainly, because people keep recommending it.
- Befallen is better and it is not close. More to do, better rates.
- Blackburrow was the best experience per hour of anywhere logged so far.
- Crushbone reads as a level five dungeon, and arriving able to kill the Emperor means you are already past the top of it.
- It does not scale, which is the actual complaint. It is fine for the item and thin for the levels.
- The named are on the far side. Going the other way from the zone in produces no named at all.
The Achievement Does Not Track
Killed them, no credit.
- The Crushbone Hunter lists the Warlord and the Taskmaster and nothing else.
- Both died here, the Taskmaster twice, and neither registered.
- The rest of the zone's named are not on it at all, so even a working version would be a short list.
- It reads as pre-launch scaffolding that never got revisited, and achievements that do not match the world are worse than no achievements.
Why a Second Character Now
Platinum, mostly.
- The Iksar unlock wants about 1,600 platinum against roughly 700 in hand.
- Spells are the real drain. Two thousand went on Shaman spells alone, immediately before this.
- 12,000 platinum earned in total since launch, which is not much.
- AA comes along for free, so it is two goals in one run.
- Motes are scarce as well. Difficulty four would produce them, but not enough to be worth the slog right now.
- Shaman specifically, because Shaman has slow, and slow is universally good. There is also a suspicion that charm gets nerfed in the first patch, which would change how the Druid loadout plays.
This is the Sunday of launch week, so everything here predates the first patch, the charm prediction included.
AA and Stances Down Here
Two an hour, five with a potion.
- Unbound Cascade at level 12, which raises critical damage on dots. With songs running constantly that is the right first buy.
- Steadfast Will is the one being saved for, alongside filling in the crit chance lines skipped on the first character.
- Offensive empties the endurance bar fast. Balance to refill, then back.
- Inversion is the habit, standing in for arcane mastery, which is not available without a Shadowknight in the loadout.
- Spam heal between cleaves. That is the entire low level tactic until Bard charm arrives.
Two Annoyances Worth Naming
Neither is your fault.
- See invisible level 17 mobs stand among the level 10s. You cannot see them without see invisible, and walking into one while fighting a light blue is exactly as bad as it sounds.
- Ultravision does not work on the client. The Dark Elf illusion is still worth it, but for the size rather than the vision.
- The slave boots everyone recommends were nerfed to 123 weight. Leave them.
Faction and What Is Next
Three factions here, and a route out.
- Emerald Warriors, Faydark Champions and Storm Guard all move while you clear, which feeds into the Wood Elf unlock later.
- Dubious is as far as it went here. The muffin quest in Freeport is the rest of it, and Wood Elf carries Half Elf with it.
- Iksar needs Qeynos unlocked first, since that is where the ore is bought.
- Najena next, for Journeyman's BootsEverQuest Legends
Journeyman's BootsMAGIC ITEM NODROPSlotFEETAC1Weight2.5SizeSMALLClass: ALLRace: ALLEffect: JourneymanBoots (Clicky)Any Slot, Casting Time: InstantSource: Najena, Drelzna. Not for the stats: dragons now shorten buff duration rather than dispelling, so a junk clicky buff in the first slot is worth having. - Then Guk from 10 until a Ghoulbane drops, with Paladin as the likely unlock after that.
Do the low level dungeons on the way back down. Coming through at 50 with the gear already earned is the comfortable time to collect the clickies and key items you skipped the first time.
Crushbone, 10 to 15, on a Second Loadout
- Copy the existing loadout so the interface comes with you.
- Check the gear transferred and swap anything the new class cannot use.
- Put Bash, Cleave and Kick back on the bar.
- Head for the far side of the zone. The near half has no named.
- Kill for the Spiky Splintmail, then click it once and forget it.
- Buy Unbound Cascade at 12.
- Offensive to burn, Balance to refill.
- Watch for see invisible mobs ten levels above everything around them.
- Leave at 15 and go somewhere that pays better.

Hello and welcome to my legendary adventures in Norath. Today we’re actually going to be leveling a shaman. So, let’s go ahead and build a new load out for the shaman, right? Uh looks like I had already uh done that. [laughter] Okay, so we’re going to go ogre for now. Um I’m going eventually turn this one to XR, but we haven’t unlocked XR yet. Uh we’re going to do Bard and Shaman. We’re going to use >> [music] >> uh we’re going to copy this current loadout. So, we’ll have everything that [music] we have now UIwise into this loadout. Uh our city is going to be that. And uh I think we’re good to go. Let’s save that. And we have not swapped yet. So, we’ll see how this goes. All right. Now, when we do that, we’re copying the UIs. So all my saved spell sets I I’m safely I can safely delete all the druid versions as I make uh specific ones for the shaman right uh in the shaman and the board I suppose there now we will start at level 10 as you can see right here level 10 [music] uh we have all the same gear on except it looks like uh one item is not usable by us. So, I have this extra earring here. Swap that in. This is a diamond diamond earring from Mistmore. So, looks like everything else uh should be warrior warrior specific in all honesty. All right, let’s get some spells here. Uh we’re going to go regen. Oh, we’re going to go actually solos on the bottom. Sellos. Uh D regen endurance regen and three put damage over time cords there. And this is the, you know, the cool part, right? You start over, you got pretty much everything you had, right? And uh feels really good. Uh, I want to put something else there. I’m just not 100% sure what to put there right now. My mind is Oh, yeah. We want the haste. There [music] we go. Whistling war song. All right, we got that. Now, that should be good. Now, I’ll hit L. And we want to make sure we got everything autokilled, right? Bash, cleave, and kick. Should be everything [music] there. Slam and bash are the same thing. Should be good. All right. So, the first one here. What was this one? What is Where’s my five button? This is cast one. So, we need our big heal here. So, what is our What is our current big heal? Light healing. All right. Now, do we have bard charm yet? No. So, those will be blank two. Let’s heal over time. We don’t have that one yet. And I think we’re good. We don’t have to really do much else besides that. Maybe Yeah, maybe tainted breath. We’ll put that [music] like right here maybe cuz that’s just going to be a way for us to do damage. [music] Uh I don’t think we have enough spells yet to even to even care [music] otherwise. And I’m just going to put this right there cuz that’s where my muscle memory is. All right. Now, let’s go level. Now, uh as I as you know, my other character is a druid. So, that means we’ve unlocked all the druid parts, right? So, we can go anywhere we want. And where I want to go first is actually crush bone. Uh there is a breastplate there. I can’t remember what it drops off of, but uh we want that. So, there we go. We’re going to go there. And uh we should actually save this. Wait, let me save this real quick so my log parser can see that I’m changed. Uh, loadout. So, war bard sham right there. Save that and we should be good to go. All right, we can go back to main chat there and uh we’re going to port. All right, we’re in butcher block. Let’s head over to uh Greater Fay. And then from Greater Fay, we’ll go into Crushbone. And we’re going to try The goal is to get the spiky breastplate or whatever the hell it’s called. Uh which is a right click bramble uh bramble coat item, which uh does for the druid. It’s there’s no use, right? For the druid ranger, that’s a spell they get. But for most the other layouts, uh, loadouts, you will definitely probably want to have that. It’s extra AC and like two points of damage shield. So, uh, it’ll be nice to have on this build as a uh, you know, as as a shaman because we don’t get that. Now, uh later on, I believe in uh Velus the Tunar Belt has uh the same clickie if not the next tier up. So, kind of a nice little thing to uh pick up and pick up early, right? Uh but you can see here this is my uh my AA parser now my log parser but it hasn’t detected that we’re level 10 yet. There’s no log that says we’re level 10. So once we uh once we get a level or something it should pick that up. So we’ll see how that goes and uh see how it goes. Now the reason I’m making another uh character this early is that I need platinum. I’m at what, 700 platinum. And I didn’t even I didn’t even buy all the rest of the the uh the shaman spells. Uh I need about 1,600 platinum to unlock XR. So, we’re uh you know, kind of working on platinum. Plus, we’re getting to work on some more AAS and uh whatnot. So, that’s going to be kind of the uh it’s a double it’s a double thing, right? So, we’re going to probably be leveling up a few different uh few different [music] classes, right? Like we have our three raids done for the week. Um my current raid progress. Let me see if I can bring this in. So, here’s my current raid progress, right? Uh I’ve done D4 Yale, Nagafin, and Vox. Uh I have not gone back to Kathle. It’s such a schllo to go through there. Uh but I probably do D4 there. And uh D3 is about where I was I was at on Enro. And that was mostly a DPS issue. I couldn’t go any further with the druid DPS- wise until I upgrade my weapons. So I’ve been farming sky. And uh I guess I can bring this back in. So in sky, I’ve been farming stuff. And you can see here like I’m almost done with a few things here. I finished the druid, uh, shimitar, the bard, spear, and I think I got a few more things done um, down here. I just haven’t, uh, for different classes. So, I have to go through and look at that. But that’s, uh, that’s one of the things I started making this log parser for. one it was I wanted to see my DPS in Linux which uh I didn’t even bother trying eq log parser because it’s it’s sonet heavy and it’s got some weird licensing with something in it. I figured it would just give me give me trouble, especially with trying to get it to do the overlay in Wayland, which uh I was able to get it, you know, going pretty well here using this uh this thing I’m using. But uh that is it’s going pretty well there. And uh then I was having all these these oh jeez uh all these sky items and I was like, “Oh my god, I’m never going to figure out what I have and what I don’t have.” You know, I was about to make a spreadsheet. I was just like, “Wait, I have all the loot information, right? I can just be like, “Hey, figure this out, Claude.” And uh lo and behold, Claude has uh has done it. Uh so we got that going. Uh, I don’t know if I’ll release it or anything like that. Uh, I know a few people have have been liking the screenshots that I’ve posted on uh on uh on my Discord. Let me show another another experience here. Right, I logged all the experience leveling [music] up. So, like the best places I I found to level experience-wise, right? Like Blackboro was the highest experience per hour, right? You know, experience per kill, all that. I have it all recorded for each combo and each load out and stuff like that. So, it’s definitely a nice step. Now, I do have a bottle of a potion here. We’re going to drink that. There we go. And then I do I do have some kind of tracking I built into it. Uh well, I say I, but I mean Claude. Uh which was something I wanted. So it knows that I get double ex double uh experience uh for those AAS when there’s a potion activated and it kind of internally keeps track and the uh thing right now like like the reason why I’m I’m hesitant to even uh release it one is it’s it’s like a 100% vibe code. I haven’t even looked at the code for this thing. Like I’m just like, you know what? I was I was I went to dinner with my wife and I was just like, man, I wish I knew what sky weapons I had available to me. You know what I what I could make from what I’ve done so far. [music] And uh [snorts] I was like, you know what? Let’s let’s see what Claude can pull together. I gave an access to my log file and I said, go have fun. And lo and behold, it is it’s having fun. And you know, I know a lot of people don’t like AI and whatnot. I I don’t know if it I haven’t even looked at the code of it, so I don’t know if it’s slot, but it’s doing 100% what I want. Exactly what I want, right? Like it’s uh there’s no >> [music] >> uh you know, there’s no Oh man, it’s doing something completely different than I I asked it. you know, it’s doing exactly what I wanted with like almost zero uh zero input other than my initial prompt and then some feedback along the way for uh making things a little bit different. But hopefully we get into this crush bone here and uh hopefully we can get experience here at level 10. Uh there’s some blues over here. All right. All right. So, we are uh we you know pretty much ending in-game gear uh doing this. So, it should it shouldn’t be difficult at all uh in all honesty. There we go. Cloth auto sell. Oh, does that not did not save between persistent auto attack. All right, those saved. All right. Auto cell. Auto cell. All right. of Legion, [music] but we’re gonna be be in here for a little bit. I I didn’t do really a lot of crush bone. And I don’t know what drops this thing, but the names are somewhere around here. So, we’re going to find one. And uh like right here, I think is what people said cuz we went this way [music] and there was like no names at all. It was like the most boring experience in the world. Uh, [music] and then uh all the names are over here. So, let’s just auto sell all this crap. I don’t want I don’t want anything wasting my bag space. The experience uh 1.7. So, let’s see here. It’s still detecting us. We haven’t leveled up yet. Once we leveled up, it should it should correct that. If not, I’ll have to uh give it some input to determine the level of the load out we are, right? And uh it’s been pretty good, right? It like automatically uh it automatically pulled up the spells DB and cross referenced because I have a I have a buff overlay uh that’ll track all my buffs, right? And it does that like perfectly. Uh the only thing it’s off it’s off by one on uh AAS, right? I’m at 179 with one unspent. It’s off by one because I didn’t have my log running when I bought uh the very first first. So Oh jeez. [music] When I bought the very first uh AA, I didn’t have it running. So I’m a little bit uh a little bit annoyed there, but uh it is what it is. All right. I don’t want to waste my my energy on him. Pet. Oh my gosh. There we go. We got to heal. There we go. Perfect. What’s our damage timeline looking like here? Yeah. Oh, yeah. The another another thing I wanted was modes. I am I am a poor ogre when it comes to modes. If we look here, right, I got one greater nine and like these are it’s like rookie numbers, right? I got nothing. So, we need more modes and that’s uh you know thing now. I could have probably gone into D4 in all honesty, but I don’t want to schlog myself through that, right? Like uh what is this [\h__\h] All right, never going to use it. Auto cell. I tried giving away stuff in guild chat and no one no one wanted it. It was kind of funny like I was it was like dragon loot too. So I’ve just been odd of selling stuff now. [music] Now while we’re here we are getting Emerald Warrior, Fed Arc Champions [music] and Storm Guard Faction which will help us uh unlock Oh jeez, this Royal Guard just came out of nowhere. What the hell? It’ll help us unlock. Oh, not even. Let’s go in defensive stance for right now while I get healed up. I didn’t even think about that. What am I in here? Oh, let’s do this one. Do I not? No, I don’t have that yet. So, it’s not even doing. All right, let’s see here. Let’s go into recovery, I suppose. Yeah. Why is there a level 17 just seeing hidden mob right here? Right. Like someone someone else is complaining about that. Like as you’re just you’re just walking around, you’re fighting a level 10. Oh, a level 17. And there’s C and Viz, so you have no idea they’re there. I mean, they’re in viz, so you can’t see them if you don’t have C and viz. There we go. The words are hard to say. I’m going to go back to inversion. I I’m addicted to inversion honestly. Mostly because I’m addicted to arcane mastery and uh without having shadow knight I don’t have arcane arcane mastery at the moment. All right, these slave boots, remember everybody told me to go get these, right? They nerfed the [\h__\h] out of them. They are what? 123 weight. No thanks. Never going to lose. Never going to loot him. All right, look at this. We’re at Haven’t even gotten an AA yet. Um I’m going to spend the rest of my uh currency on AA potions to uh just wrap that up. Uh, I still didn’t get my uh my uh inventory slot or my extra equipment slots. Uh, I’m not 100% sure when that’s going to resolve. Probably the patch in all honesty. Slavers lash or junk. What is this thing worth? It’s worth two platinum. I mean, whatever. Leather whip auto sell. All right, the blood gurgler. All right. Sounds like he’s uh the hamburger, but he likes blood instead. And there’s another named over there, the prophet. So, but I mean, obviously this is this is trivial since we’re going to wear level 50 gear. I mean, I’ve I’ve cleared Enok, I’ve cleared Kazix, so I got a lot of stuff. My weapon’s not the best. I’m still using Sunderfury, and I I tried farming up another one uh to try to get the four, but uh I didn’t want to waste any moes on it cuz I feel like I’m going to replace it cuz I’m one item away from getting the plane of sky weapon, but I keep getting stupid necromancer and mage things. I can literally make all the sky stuff for every class that I that comes off the eye. All right, there we go. There’s the spiky split mail. Got it right away. All right, perfect. And we can sell that. Click that here in a second. There we go. Can we blood you? All right. So, this is uh Bramble Coat, right? So, we’re going to take this to storage. Activate. Wait, probably have to click it first, right? Cannot use it unless it’s a tune. So, we have to put it on. There we go. It casts pretty quick, too. All right, that’s a permanent buff. We put that back in our activated items. And I really Oh, we got two origins. Perfect. There we go. All right, that’ll give us a little bit of a damage shield. Not much. It’s just lazy. It’s like three damage, right? Nice to have. Not important. It’s permanent, too. So, you only got to click it after you die. So, that’s even better. There we go. And come on. There we go. All right. What we got here? We got blue orc head junk. Spellbook junk. Junk. These are [music] all quests. You can go do them if you want. Ah, I’m not going to. Disgusted padded shirt. Auto cell. Not really. Am I Am I stuck? God. Oh my god. There we go. All right, let’s go over here. We’ll stay here for a while. This is this is this is this experience is terrible. Uh but Fallen is better, but I complained about it in the uh the other video, too. I don’t know why people keep telling me this is a good experience, but uh it’s not. My phone’s better, too, because there’s just more more uh more fun stuff to do. Is it like another one around here? Like one of those hidden guys. Just don’t remember where he’s at. Perfect. O, look at that damage. All right, so we can go probably offensive now. Like I was I was in defensive because I was getting All right, there we go. It detected [music] that we leveled up. And we got choke hold over here. They fixed him. So, he’s not 100% uh immune to melee that we remember that from the other one. There we go. And what do you got? Belt or no arms. That’ been nice way early on. Two platinum auto cell. Master key. Auto cell. What do we got? Another taskmaster over here. What is this? Jump it. Oh yeah. Oh. Oh, we’re in the water. All right. And a royal guard. What kind of nonsense is that? Oh, look at that. Look at that. We hit him for like 152 and 130 in a single. No, that was one. Yeah, that was a cleave. Never mind. There we go. We got our AA. Now, it says we have three unspent, which is correct. Wow. All right. So, it’s working. We might have to uh we might have to like figure out how to make ourselves small real quick. I can’t cast on him because he’s like not in the water with me. [laughter] All right, let’s go dark elf uh for the rest of this. just so we can uh navigate this a little bit easier. There we go. Boom. And then pop up here. You want some of this [\h__\h] You’re threatening, but you don’t want me. Got to work on dwarf action soon. All right. Look at the scoutsman. He looks huge. [music] All right, we’re at 2 AAA an hour. Look at that. Obviously, we want to probably AoE this stuff down. Let’s go back over to the other side. This is the lower level junk. It doesn’t really matter. I like so as a dark elf, right? You get ultra vision and for some reason ultra vision doesn’t actually work on the client anymore. I don’t know why. At least for any of the game of the game I’ve played. Right. There we go. Look at this. Just bodies hitting the floor. Only worth point8 though. Oh, all right. But we got the item we were here for. Now we’re going to probably What do we need? We need to na. I think we can go to Nina at level 10. [snorts] So, we’re going to stay here until I get a Oh, never mind. We already got a charge. Uh, we’ll probably go to Nina uh here in a minute. Maybe uh maybe next video. I don’t know. I might take a break in between, but we’re going to stay here for a little bit longer. But definitely this is going to We’re completely out of stamina now. That’s the downside of running offensive, right? Run out of stamina really quick. But I’m like still one shoting stuff almost. Come on. There we go. All right. Oh, this actual geometry. [laughter] I thought it was uh I thought it was cloth. It’s geometry collision with it. That’s hilarious. All right. Where are we at? There we go. All right, let’s run. Try to get back over to the emperor. I want to go kill him before we leave. Achievements. Is there is there like a hunter for the stone? Crush bone. Yeah. Hunter of crush warlord and taskmaster. All right. They didn’t update those. All right. Taskmaster says he spawns over here. Let’s just pull all this junk over here. I got an orc pawn. Maybe maybe it’s like a placeholder cuz they didn’t he’s not always up, I guess. [laughter] He’s not up or we killed him and he didn’t count. Come on, guys. Get over here. Like I got I got things to kill. All right, we’re going to go offensive just to try to like whittle these things down pretty quick. Not bad. There’s a caster guy coming. We’re taking some damage. I don’t like to waste my melee on pets, so I just tap off that one. He’s a magician. Wow. A magician orc. I don’t know how that works lorewise, but here we are. Oh yeah, look at that. And we’re down to just a a royal guard. 500% experience an hour. So theoretically, we should get five five levels in an hour. Uh I don’t think I don’t think you’re you’re right there, Clawed on that one. I don’t think you are, but you never know. I mean, the experience is very random. Um it is definitely very random here. What is this? Level three. What? Go home. [laughter] What do you got? There’s a yellow. There’s like yellows right next to uh level threes. Don’t get it. But here we are. Come on. There we go. And then around here into this room. Let’s do this guy. Let’s go into balance to get a little bit of uh resources back. Tainted breath and tainted breath, everybody. Now, the cool thing is is we’re doing bard AOE, right? And we’re doing our uh normal uh cleave AOE. So, this is just, you know, extension of kind of what we’re doing. We just don’t have the uh the damage shield that we have on the There we go. Level 12. Unbound Cascade. If we go there, you can see what that one does. Unbound Cascade. Uh critical damage over times go up by the damage, right? So, that’s pretty nice. Extra crit damage on dots, right? And then this guy’s a paladin, so he’s going to lay hands like a little [\h__\h] And then be good. But we’re at what? Five unspent AA. [music] Now, like I want to get Steadfast Will. So that’s going to be that’s one of the things we’re doing here. Uh, I’d like to probably finish out, you know, my crit chance and everything else, right? Like there’s a lot of things I didn’t get in the first run. So, I’m going do that. Uh, now I was going to make a rogue, right? Uh, and then I turned in the spear, the 15 damage back damage spear for the bard uh the bard weapon. And, uh, I wasn’t really thinking there. Uh 17 platinum. All right. Auto cell. Jeez. Uh so I got to get another one of those to make a rogue. And then we’ll have these like massive massive massive backstabs as we’re leveling up with a rogue. And we’re probably going to do the same uh same kind of leveling structure. Maybe I’ll change it up a little bit. But uh I like bard a lot. I’m thinking about using my unlock on paladin. just so I can have a healing healing tank. So, we can do that. Now, I’ve gotten uh I’ve already started getting some of the paladin stuff in Sky. So, if we can get the Paladin uh weapons in Sky, we’ll probably uh probably do it. There’s a Taskmaster. Is that the Is that the Taskmaster? No. >> [laughter] >> I don’t know. They need to fix those. I I don’t know why they didn’t. They need to put all these other names on there so you can actually get some achievements, right? Like, it’s kind of a It’s kind of annoying that achievements exist that uh don’t align with what the actual world is. [music] It just seems like a pre-launch kind of thing. There we go. Especially me. I really want to get all these achievements. I was like I was Oh jeez, look at this. This is a cluster of a [\h__\h] right? Oh, and then we get attacked by a rogue from behind. All right, let’s get that going. Let’s go defensive for this one, I think. Actually, no. Let’s go offensive. Why not? I’m just going to spam heal in between cleaves. Like that’s that’s like my tactic the whole way until I get bar charm. It’s just uh just heal through the while I’m waiting for a cleave. Right. Prophet’s about to die. Boom. There you go. And he dropped uh probably stuff. I might have already already sold his junk out of self. There we go. Look at that. Making some money here. Oh, that’s an overlay idea. All right, platinum per hour. We’ll get that in here. Next. Uh, next thing. That’s pretty nice. That nice nice resist on that out of Sela. 14 platinum for that. O, orc weapons will spill your blood. What is that? Kill 100 orcs. All right, perfect. A draon dirk. Um, that’s pretty nice, but I don’t need it. Auto cell a black heart. I don’t know. I don’t probably not going to do those quests. All right, so we cleared all of that. All of this. What’s out here? Oh. Oh. Oh, good. Um, all right. Work our way over that way. What’s this leader? He’s level 12. I think choke. Choke is over here. Yep. Perfect. So, we’re just going to farm up as much experience as we can. Platinum. Now, I do have like my overall platinum on the dashboard here. So, I’ve earned 12,000. That’s it. 12,000 since I uh since I started playing, which is not a lot. That is uh not a lot at all. All right. There’s nothing over there. And I spent 2,000 on shaman spells right before I made this guy. So, uh yeah. No. All right. All right. Here we go. Let’s get you. Can we get some more? Can we get all of you guys? Can What about you? You’re just going to die. There you go. I’m going to kill myself in all honesty. It looked like a named one there. He’s an orc taskmaster. Maybe it’ll count after we kill him. Oh my god. 2%. All right, perfect. And let’s check the All right, let’s uh You got to click off it sometimes, right? do crush bone. Nope, we didn’t get credit for him. So, yesterday my uh my daughter, she’s she’s like she’s like almost 18 and she she’d never like when when I was a kid, we used to have these little uh little sound making devices where you could uh you could click it and it make different sounds like a a bomb sound or laughs, you know, just it’s just a little noise maker, right? And uh I guess she’s never heard of one of these and she’s like, “I wish there was a thing that I could like push and make a sound of crickets.” She’s whenever somebody says something. I thought it was the funniest thing in the world cuz uh like when I was a kid, you know, that was a it was a pretty, you know, big thing. Congrats on 50 Z. Congrats. All right. But yeah, we got a guild here on Freeport. Anybody wants to join, they can join. 29 members right now. Um, I mean, this game is very super casual, but you know, it’s nice to have people you can talk to and uh stuff like that and you know whatot. There we go. We got Why not automerge? Wait, how much is this worth? [music] 12 platinum. O yeah, automerge. Why not? I don’t care. And no, no profit over there now. All right. Not too bad. Like I mean this is this seems There we go. Seems extremely easy and you know decent experience. I guess it feels slow. Uh we’re it says, you know, 17 kills until No. Yeah, it’s it’s trying to predict like it’s trying. It’s clock’s trying. Might have to update some of that, but it seems to be pretty good. Like it’s got me a progress bar. Tells me exactly like it’s guessing how far it’s going to take. Right. All right, let’s go balance to get some endurance back. Let’s go like this because we got that guy now. Perfect. But uh this is Sunday, the the week of launch, right? Like I know I know some people realize like it takes me a while to get my videos out. Like it’s uh it’s going to take a while. And so this is still the first the first week of launch. Uh, you know, obviously a lot of a lot of people are telling me I should stream um since most of my videos aren’t any [laughter] like streams to some people. Uh, and uh, yeah, I don’t know. I’m, you know, some people have told me do like a weekly stream, so I might I might do it. I just got to school start starting soon for my kids and then once that happens, I’ll probably have a little bit better of a situational awareness there. I can do something. [music] I don’t have to pick up my daughter anymore. She’s driving. I gave her my car. Uh she’s driving all over San Antonio. It is crazy. And uh she’s gotten a flat already. So, you know, definitely uh you know, that’s not a thing I have to worry about anymore. So, my daytime is a little bit freer. Don’t cut that guy. But I prefer making videos. It’s It’s easier. The video like I feel like streams never get rewatched. Whereas I put out a video [music] I’m getting comments on videos years later. Uh I’ve never gotten a comment on a Twitch VOD. I’ve never gotten a comment on a stream um you more than a week later, right? like like even the YouTube ones like I I I feel like like to me there’s a there’s an accessibility thing with the YouTube UI for getting to the stream replays which I felt like it lowered the views because they don’t show up in the main list of videos. Like I have to go to a separate tab to even see my uh that’s pretty nice. Nine silver though. Yoink. Uh, I have to go to a separate view to even view my uh my streams. So, it is one of Jeez. Okay, you guys don’t want to come. I’m going to go over here. I’m going to go in here. Yeah. Come and get me. Come and get [music] me. Oh, yeah. You got you. You want to come? They’re still not here. I don’t know. I don’t know why I can’t tab target the guy that’s literally right in front of me. All right, let’s go up in here. No. All right, there’s a warlord. All right, here. Let’s kill this stuff cuz I’m I’m like running into the wall. Cloth pants. Auto cell. The first play through we just like wore all that stuff right now. Let’s go striker or not striker. What is that? Offensive. Yeah, there we go. Perfect. Some big big cleaves here. Come on. Money money. Oh, we got a bow. Uh, I’ll loot that. I don’t know if I have a better bow. Yeah, I’ll have to compare the two. All right. Now, we messed up. We were over here and we fell out the window. I’m terrible at this game. All right, let’s just get everybody here. All right, everybody. You, too. Come on. Everybody come gather around. Yes. There we go. Now we killed the warlord, right? Keep that in mind and we’ve killed the taskmaster twice. We’re not getting credits for the hunter. So now, can we survive is really the question here. Can we survive? I’m going to go back into balance because we don’t have any endurance to even do an AoE attack. But there we go. Look at that 172 cleaves. Oof. Die. Orcs die. There we go. 1.5. We’re level 13. Fire. There we go. All these are almost dead. I think with uh [laughter] if we get more AAS and uh you know better weapons and stuff, I think we could probably kill this whole entire zone at level one or level 10 right in AoE. Just not there yet. Now it’s looking good. All right. I don’t know where this guy came from. I thought we were right there. Let’s grab him. All right, let’s get these guys cuz I’m I realized I’m lower health than I was anticipating. Let’s do offensive. Excellent. [groaning] Come on. There we go. He’s going to [\h__\h] that Centarian just like Hold on, buddy. I’m not going to I’m not going to get involved here. You can uh you can kill the the emperor. I’m I’m good. I’m good, buddy. There we go. Come on. I’m like spam healing myself with the crappiest heal in the world. Now, if I were to like if I was if I was smart, I would probably upgrade light healing. That’s going to be that’s your heal until like 19 I think for a lot of the uh priest classes including uh what is it god um paladin I believe maybe 24 on paladin there we go and then getting 14 platinum a pop. I mean, obviously this is [laughter] this is decent money if you sell all that stuff. All right, let’s jump out the window and we should be able to get chokeold. He should be like right here. Yep. A stick. I’ve never seen another royal guard. I’m going to turn a little bit so I can maybe cleave balance for stamina regen. There we go. Now, now that I’m I’m thinking about leveling a uh a paladin, I think what I might do after this is well, we’ll do na. I want to get J boots, but from this point on until I get a ghoul bane, I’m going to probably do lower guck from level 10 or upper guck from 10 until I get a ghoul bane and then I’m going to lock paladin as my as a main. I think I’m going to do that. I think that’s going to be uh cuz we’re going to be leveling up a lot of a lot of characters, right? And hopefully I’ll be able to do the XR unlock uh later today and then I can turn this this one into an XR. I like I just like XR a lot. I’m going to leave the warrior druid [music] bard ogre, right? That just feels fine for him, but I kind of want to have each unique uh loadout to have a little bit different of a little, you know, personality. And we’re almost what? We’re at seven on spent a so we’re almost at enough. Let’s get the blood gurgler. He’s not here. All right. Oracle. That’s a placeholder. What? There’s not supposed to be placeholders in this place. What are you talking about? There we go. It’ll get over here eventually. How are we doing on Emerald Warriors, right? We’re dubious. We’re dubious and we are almost uh almost not hated by the uh the the dwarves, right? So that’s not bad, I guess. Not bad at all. Is that that blood gurgler? He just decided to spawn after I pulled everybody. That’s funny. What is this? More keys to quests. There we go. What? Yeah. So, I’m going to be grinding. Uh like I don’t think I’m going to show every single level when I’m doing these grindings, just like new zones and stuff. Uh once we get to a certain point, I’m going to I am going to circle back and do some guides on some zones. Obviously, it’s late uh to the show there, but I didn’t want to waste my time making a guide in the pre pre-ordered beta uh or the private beta because everything has changed, right? Like it anything I said in probably previous videos is probably different, right? I would have said, “Come here and get these boots and what do you know? they nerfed in them into the ground, right? There’s a reason why I’ve held off on creating that kind of content. And like I what there another reason why I haven’t created, you know, how I play my uh warrior bar druid video yet, right? Like I feel like the first patch is going to, you know, when it happens on Tuesday is going to change some things. Um I feel like I personally feel like Charm is going to get nerfed. I I truly do. And that affects how I play the that combo, right? That’s why I picked Shaman as the next one. Level up. There we go. Um because Shaman has slow and uh slow is universally good to have. Right. There we go. Level 14. Look at that. Five AAS an hour right now with our double experience potion. Uh, we got one more charge. Yep, it’s it’s on Q. It’s Look at that. It’s parsing just right. Right now, I use So, I’m using Electron to make this gooey. Right. But the uh the back end is actually a Rust micro service Damon that sits and parses the log constantly. [music] Uh, and it parses fast. I don’t know if you’ve ever used Rust for anything, but it is a fast parsing fast working language. Um, definitely faster parsing than uh JavaScript would be. And uh like so like years ago I wrote this uh this XML parser thing in Ruby. It’s on my GitHub and it parses like this very specific security tool uh data and stuff like that. And it was, you know, it was a few minutes to parse a a fairly large file, right? Uh, I ported that to Rust when I was learning Rust and I got it down to like 10 seconds or less to parse the same files that were taking minutes in Ruby doing the exact same thing. It was like verbatim. Uh, and then I threw Claude at it. I was like, “Hey, what did I do wrong?” And Claude got it down to like one second and it’s all 100% the same data. So, uh definitely uh definitely some interesting stuff there. But, uh uh you know, definitely Rust is a very this is probably my favorite language now. I use I use it for my uh for my Voxil engine that I’ve shown a few pictures on the Discord for. Uh, and I’m well, as soon as I get unaddicted to this, I’m gonna go on that. But got a I got a nice little fun survival game I’m working on. I’m going to do a video on it here pretty soon. Uh, but uh, it has been a it’s been a long time working on that thing, years at this point. And I’m trying to make it look a less like, you know, normal blocky games. More microoxal style is what I’m trying to convert it to right now. I I’m getting my ass handed to me in uh Oh, look at all these dots on me. Jeez, look at this. Come on, guys. Can you Can you not kill me today? It’s a sh It’s a mage. That’s why. Probably slowed, too. There we go. Wasn’t even attacking that guy. Jeez, Cleave, you’re so good. There we go. All right. Come on. There we go. All right. Jeez. Let’s just fight this guy here while we’re getting some resources back. Let’s go into uh balanced. I still have inversion on. Probably switch it over here to uh recovery. Let’s see what we got over here. Legionaires. I mean, it’s not too bad. I mean this I mean I I complain about how slow the experience is, but that’s just because Befallen is so much better. Let’s just be realistic here. Uh I don’t know why Befallen has to be so good. But I feel like this is this doesn’t scale as high. Like I’m already you know I was already killing the emperor the the highest boss. So I think this is like more of like a level five dungeon. And I’m I’m already at the high end on it. So it’s kind of really heed me. Oh no. Is the earth elemental? It’s another mage. Oh god. Now I got to heal. Majors are like the only only uh mobs I got to heal for, which is weird really. Come on. All right, let’s do a quick buff. I just threw all the all the shams that I could fit on the bar. There we go. There’s like four mobs in here. Jeez. Oh, and another guy from behind. Did not expect that. All right, go defensive. I feel like I’m taking way too much damage right now. There we go. I’m I’m at I think I’m at 50 57 DPS. 56 55. And I have a I got charm tracking to work. So, when I charm a mob, it’ll it’ll actually detect that I charmed it, right? It Oh my god, it’s so nice. And it shows me the charmed mob’s DPS. And I got all that stuff working though, just the way I wanted it, right? And I am going to port this from EverQuest Legends to uh normal EverQuest. I’m actually I’m gonna try to get Claw to convert this UI to uh to normal. I don’t think I can release that one at all, but I’m going to see if it’ll it’ll do it right because it’s already got all the heroic stuff in there, right? Like it it’s loadouts are personas. So, there’s only 16 [music] there’s 16 uh personas you can be. There’s 16 loadouts you can be, right? I’m almost certain clock can one shot porting this to uh to normal EverQuest, right? And then uh I don’t that’ll look cool when we play Lethar. It’ll be hilarious. Oh, lost our illusion. Let’s re uh shrinky shrink there. But uh I think Ngina is going to be next. I think that is uh just so I can get J boots, get that knocked out. Uh I don’t think there’s anything else there really worth getting. Uh honestly, at this point, like early on there’s some good stuff. There’s like a haste belt and uh like some monk weapons, but at this point there is no uh I don’t think there’s any reason. There we go. I just want the I just want the J boots really. Uh so I can I can have like So when I fight the dragons, right, they don’t dispel anymore, but they lower your uh your buff duration. I want to, you know, I want to put have a junk buff I can put in the first slot. Uh, I’m too lazy to go farm Kasak thul right now cuz it takes so long to go through all those mobs. But, uh, I’ll probably do it here soon. Maybe I’ll do it with this guy cuz slow trivializ trivializes everything. And, uh, I’ll probably do that and just slow just slow everything, fight it all. Uh, but this is this is going pretty well in all honesty. I think we’ll stay here till 15 and then uh we’ll call it cuz this is uh definitely uh definitely kind of slow. Now we’re at 9 AAS. I probably should spend these on something. Let me see if there’s anything classwise. What is that? Auto cell. Is there anything classwise I need? No. And I can’t get cannibalize yet [music] anyway, so that doesn’t matter. Critical affliction. Oh, that’s looking kind of tasty. I’m gonna think on that one for a minute. [laughter] I like I don’t even have like all the AAS, right? And uh I feel like there’s, you know, some key ones that will make things a little faster, but I’m not 100% sure yet. I was hoping to get a Dagas right from uh Sky, but I didn’t get a single single item for that. I got two of 3D Waraxes and what is the other thing? I got a ton of the the other stuff, but so I can make the fangle uh as soon as I get the drop from uh the eye, but man, uh it’s like hit or miss. Like killing for me, killing the eye with with my you know, warrior druid is is is hit or miss because I have to go into invas evasion for most of the fight and do as much damage as I possibly can [laughter] before I have to go back into balanced mode to regenerate enough endurance [music] to uh finish the fight in uh with that. Right. And then when I’m in uh when I’m in balance mode, I’m spam healing the whole entire time. So the only damage I’m really doing is like my kick, bash, and cleave, and I’ll auto attack here and there. So it is definitely uh it is definitely a different fight. But if I but if I get lucky, when I kill the sister, when I’m right there, she has this uh little wisp cleric mob right next to her. If I charm him, I can then take that thing up to the to the to to the boss, right, to the eye. And [snorts] he will do so much damage that I don’t have to heal at all in the fight. I just go evasive with uh empowered bard chance and I just go go and uh I usually win. And if I need to heal, I just drop into balance, heal, heal, heal until I get the endurance. I change up my whole entire spells to be based on uh regenerative health and endurance. Uh and it it works out pretty well. I think with a little bit more gear, it’ go really fast. Oh, this jury decided to attack that time. And then we got a random guard. All right. Excellent. Just swack these guys down. What are we in? Defensive. Let’s go offensive. Let’s throw a heal. Let’s do another heal. Look at that. 142 crits. 117 crit. Lovely stuff, right? And then the part songs are just going constantly, right? Can’t wait till we get we get we should get another one here at 19, I think. And then we’ll we’ll drop uh we’ll probably drop the endurance regen at that point. Or maybe health regen. Probably don’t even need that. There’s another AA. All right. So, how much money do I got? All right. Let’s buy. We have three. Let’s just buy three of them. Screw it. Oh, there we go. No, we have nothing. Nothing at all. All right. So, this is a 291 versus a two. Nishot versus nothing. It’s got some stats on it, too. So, that’s actually an upgrade. Well, uh I got to upgrade the other one. before I can take out that proc, I guess. Knee shot, whatever that is. All right, let’s grab that one. That one. That one. You guys want to come, too? Come on down. All right, you guys don’t seem like you want to play. And let’s scrap you. You guys are no experience. All right. See if I can get in the right spot here. All right. >> There we go. All right. That’s not bad. They’re all blue, right? So, they’re going to be better uh AA experience, right? So, let’s see what we get here. 3 six. That’s 3% A for whatever that was. 4% for that guy. 3% for that guy. >> Come on. >> I think it was two 24. Jeez, it just goes up. Auto cell. Auto cell. There we go. And we should ding here in a second. Probably after these named over here. All right. What are we at factionwise? Right. Amably dubious. [music] Dupious. What? [laughter] What? [music] Why is it so different? All right. Well, maybe you can’t go any higher with that. We have to do the muffins quest anyway, right? Wait. Um, I’m going to have a video on that here. I did dark elf. Uh, I did that unlock video. I want to get uh that one edited first. Make sure I don’t it’s good before I uh make the next one. Probably do uh then there’s like a muffin quest you can do with uh guy in Freeport unlocks wood elves uh which unlocks half elves too I believe. And then uh I think to do Xar I’m going to have to unlock Kino because I’m going to need There we go. 15. I’m going to need to buy all the ore from Kenos. So we’ll see how that goes. I don’t know. There we go. All right. So we’re 15. I think I think at this point this place is a little slow. Uh, you could probably push it if you really really wanted to, but like I’m all Oh my god. Really jump there. There was a There’s a There’s a gnome right there. Do you see him? Like there he is. [laughter] There’s another hole. Oh my. All right, let’s kill this guy and then we’ll call it. But uh yeah, definitely uh definitely a nice place. We got the belt or I mean the not the belt but the uh chest plate I wanted. [music] So we’re going to do Naja next until we get the the J boots, right? [music] Um, I feel like this is the best time to do it while you’re leveling after you’ve already leveled up to get the, you know, the key items and the clickies and stuff from all the dungeons. And moes are like really important. I don’t know how many Let me see how many moes we got. Like this is this is how many moes I’ve gotten total so far. Um, look at all loot here. We got a moat there and that is it. Like there’s not been very many moes. So, it’s been a dry a try mode season. Uh but you know, it is what it is. We’ll kill this guy, too. Why not? And there we go. But that’s, you know, that’s crush bone. I mean, it’s fairly easy, right? This it’s like we zoom out, right? You come in, you go this way. Hey, there’s some more mobs up here. I think there’s a named up there, too. Um, if you want to kill him, but they’re all pretty much blue. I mean, at this point, so it’s pretty much done. There we go. All right. Oh, we got a moat of potential, too. So, we’re probably going to do uh D3 Nina next. So, stay tuned for that in uh tomorrow. But thank you very much for watching and please [music] have a fantastic day.

Plane of Sky
Part one of Plane of Sky at 49, with the swim from East Freeport that gets you there without a Wizard. Includes an alchemy crash course, the island boss knockback trick, and the Grandmaster shortcut that skips Plane of Fear for Warrior armour.
Innoruuk, Prince of Hate
Innoruuk at difficulty zero, plus the Agnostic deity quest that asks for him and Cazic Thule. His resists are the exact inverse of Cazic's, which is the one thing worth knowing before you build a spell set.
Cazic Thule
First trip into Plane of Fear, difficulty zero, and Cazic Thule at the end of it. Fire and cold both bounce off him, so half the chant melody does nothing. Plus a home built log parser to prove what is actually landing.
