bards can kill them the soonest(level ~25 was my first)...it will take days to do though....even at level 35 it took forever....level 38 wasn't "sooo" bad anymore though. i have heard of necros and shamens taking them at 30 and 34 solo....so it can be done. hehe and to be honest i have never seen a cleric solo one of these.....ever....maybe they just never felt the need =)

When SG's attack!!!
# Nov 12 2001 at 2:44 AM Rating: Default
I remember hunting orcs like a good little cleric with my group. I think I was about lvl 17 at the time...Well, anyway...
We had killed a mob of about 4 or 5 of them, and I had to sell, I was encumbered, so I run off to gypsies. (I always looks before I leap, so I checked the landscape of Orc Highway to see if any specs or SGs are around. Al was clear so I went.)
Once I was done selling, I ran back to my group, when I heard shouts of SG heading to Orc Highway. Everyone in group is like...where? RUN! It had come from the NRo side of zone and me and the other caster of the group watched it kill 2 people in our group. We were sowed and a long ways away, but I knew better and took off.
A few moments later I hear tells of someone killing it, so I think, good, I'm in the clear.

Whoever was "killing" this SG...well, it wasn't the same one that was attacking us for as soon as I turn around, there's the SG, and he makes a B line for me... Next thing I know is LOADING PLEASE WAIT........

I don't care if you hear shouts or not of someone killing an SG, make SURE you're in another zone or as far away as you can get!!! hehe

A cleric abondoning their group? I sure hope I never get you in my group.

Of course fighting a SG at that level if futile but a Cleric should never leave their group there to die unless it's under extemely unusual circumstances.


Like..If you are in a dungeon and your group is taking a beating you can "camp the cleric". basically "camp" out of the game so that you can come back into the game a few minutes later to Res your group. Very useful when in place like Tower of Frozen shadow that require keys for each floor.


My main is a level 52 Druid (Kicks butt)
My alt. is a level 40 Cleric (Heals and stuns) :-)

or go to an external view when running and look behind you. That way, you don't abandon your group unecessarily, but you're not putting yourself in undue risk.
Something weird

I was minding my own buisness in Oasis and i decided to have fun so i shouted sand giants are ugly and have big noses and all of sudden a SG popped up behing and the next thing i knew a sand giant hits you for 98 damage and another 2 98's a pop and then Loading please wait...

Sand giants also drop fine steel stuff
RE: LOOT
# Nov 03 2001 at 4:00 PM Rating: Default
Um, no they don't, nothing is ever going to loot fine steel stuff, it is player made, so if you looted fine steel it's because someone gave it to the sand giant, why anyone would do that i don't know
RE: LOOT
# Mar 17 2002 at 8:53 PM Rating: Default
uh huh. suure.
that must been the bags of fine steel stuff i looted from giants was a game glitch. =p

How can someone be lvl 42 and not know what people are talking about when they say "FS" drops?

And this was like a few months ago to, not like we are dealing with a "beta" era post or something...

i was in oasis the other day killing orcs with my group. I told them ill be right back because ive got to go by some drink cause im out. and so when i got to the Gypsies i was buying my stuff and all the sudden i heard these footsteps. and then:

a sand giant kicks you for 38 points of damage
a sand giant hits you for 32 points of damage
a sand giant punches you for 42 points of damage
a sand giant hits you for 34 points of damage
a sand giant tries to hit you, but misses
a sand giant kicks you for 49 points of damage
you have been slain by a sand giant
LOADING PLEASE WAIT.......

and so i went back to get my corpse and as soon as i zoned to oasis i saw him at my corpse still. And noone was gonna kill him. So i waited and finnaly he move i got my corpse and headed back to my group. and all i saw were their corpses. And so they said a SG killed them and so i turned aroung and saw 5 specs 2 SG's headed strait for me. I started to run to the docks and saw another SG. That was 3 Sg's in all. When i got to the docks everybody was dead and everyone was shout get out of the zone. I still had the specs and SG's on my tail (thank god i had SOW). And so i zoned and i came back and saw the three SG's and another one thats 4! and so i went around them and then i saw cazel! this was the worst day in oasis 4 SG's, 5 specs, and Cazel. bareley anyone was in the zone. and so finnaly they were all dead in about an hour or so. and when i saw the SG'd i conned them all to check if the were pets or charmed. and so that was my unlucky day in Oasis.

SG Loot

A couple days ago I looted an SG in the Oasis. On it among other things was a lambent Stone and Essence of Sunlight. Can Anyone out there tell me what Essence of Sunlight is for?
RE: SG Loot

It's used in human cultural smithing from Qeynos. It's an ingredient in Royal Temper.

Has anyone seen essence of sunlight drop on other mobs anywhere? SG's have a 5 second lifespan on Vazaelle and this drop is uncommon at least...

Changing text color
# Nov 29 2001 at 9:53 PM Rating: Decent
The /usercolor command is easier than editing the file directly, and its easier still to use EQColors, which can be downloaded from some site that I forget the name of. '/usercolor help' will give the details you need to use it.
RE: Lil lying Rogue
# Oct 05 2001 at 3:21 PM Rating: Decent
Edit the eqclient.ini file to change text color. Read the online manual at C:\program files\everquest for instructions.

PS, I'm not that rogue
Helped out alot!

This thing helped me out alot for gettin me to lvl 12! I man i took half a yellow bulb from me! Heres what happened... You say "hail ----" ----- says "hail Majicakil" You say "hi" --- says "hello"
you say" May i have u buff me and my pet? plz"
---- says "Sure, hold on let me med"\
you say "Ok"
---- (stands up) says "Ahhh"
(---- runs)
Next thing i knew
A Sand Giant hits Gababer for 98 points of damage
A Sand Giant hits Gababer for 98 points of damage
Gababer has been slain by a Sand Giant
(I try to run)
A sand Giant hits YOU for 98 points of damage
A sand Giant hits YOU for 98 points of damage
YOU have been slain by a Sand Giant!
LOADING, PLEASE WAIT...

This is bad because there were no stopms while it approached so either the game is screwed up or it really didnt like me and snuck up on me, lol.
This was by the docks where Sand Giants should not roam since ainly lvl 10 through 20 are there
Hope this reminds u ppl at the docks to be more cautious

Majicakil lvl 11 Mage (would be 12 with spells if not for this dumb SG!)
Kilnaeli lvl 26 warrior in IC

The docks are dangerous
# Dec 02 2001 at 10:58 PM Rating: Default
You know, about the thing about them shouldn't have been around the docks for whatever reason, most yells about the sand giants I hear are something like "SG to dox!!!" They can really go anywhere they damn well please, and I'm not going to tell them otherwisw.

BTW I don't know if this is just my server, or what, but there are always a LOT of corpses scattered around the docks. Maybe that's why people always run there to be safe. . .

also, who knows what makes these things spawn?
(I do! is not an answer)

Essence of Sunlight
# Sep 10 2001 at 9:35 PM Rating: Decent
Can anyone tell me what this is for?
I was runnin through North Ro the other day and saw a SG. Having full mana at the time, I thought I might as well make some quick coin and laid into the giant. Hey only dropped a few plat, but he also dropped a stackable vial called "Essence of Sunlight". I dont know if it's part of the Pally quest armor, but I didnt see it in the list of quest items for it. It's Magic only, not Lore and not No Drop. Merchants will only give me around 6gp for it, but I want to know what it is for before I decide what to do with it.

Its for human cultural smithing, qeynos temper.
a brewer needs 2 of these sunlights (rare!), Grifenne (rare) Blood (RARE!), and Rainwater
SO SAVE THEM, PLEASE!!!
huh?

i was watching these people kill cazel right in front of me then a SG spawned right behind me. and all the sudden.

a sand giant hits you for 64 points of damage
a sand giant hits you for 89 points of damage
a sand giant hits you for 76 points of damage
a sand giant hits you for 92 points of damage
cazel hits you for 128 points of damage
you have been slain by cazel.

isnt that a little weird for a SG and Cazel to spawn at the same time?

level 14 rogue cazic thule
RE: huh?
# Oct 05 2001 at 3:25 PM Rating: Decent
No, I have seen Cazel and 2 SGs up at the same time. I have also seen 4 SGs up at the same time. Hang around Oasis long enough and you'll see.

RE: Group
# Oct 05 2001 at 3:35 PM Rating: Decent
Me, 30 Enchanter, and a 30 Druid took out 4 last night, plus a Spectre that jumped us while being quadkited by another Druid. I don't think any other class combo that low can kill them, except having a Ranger instead of the Druid. You need SoW, Snare, Tashani, and Fear.

I would pull with Tashani and kite it, he would Snare it then kite it, I would Fear it, then we both dotted it and refeared and resnared as needed.

As for loot, one dropped 39pp atleast, I got 20pp from a 2way split.

Bimlobicky Villainslayer; 35 Human Warrior; Veeshan:
Conned one the other day and got a blue message telling me it was formidable (guess thats a "high" blue?) Anyway I started to fight it and almost immediately regretted my action. Did a shout and told whoever was near to plz help out some; was having trouble. No response; I am using a icetooth claws and cane of tranquil. We were hitting each other pretty good and i thought now might be the time to run. started to head to the pillar near the docks so if a high lev cleric was in the area maybe i could bum a heal. I never even considered draging it to the docks. Set up the ring in the sand there and bashed and sliced away; shouted again. Suddenly from the right i see a PC ... cleric :) Whoo hoo.... I suddenyl feel much better. Still kinda worried tho; i was down to maybe 2 more hits before she came along. the sg still at 1/2 health. So im a lil better off but need some offensive help to kill the *******. All of a sudden i hear a crunch; and the sg turns around. It was my fellow guildie iboozer (47 rogue .. i think) bsing the sg for 198 points ... Very nice. Suffice to say i survived. Even got the xp on it and it was at least half a blue. This is all to say that a couple 35 or 36 tanks and a good healer with a rogue in there to bs could do these easily. My loot was nice; fine steel sword some other junk and at least 25 plat in coins(too bad it was almost all silver and copper). So if ya ever on veeshan in the oasis of marr, do a zone check for warriors. If im there ill be fighting sg's. Gimme a tell saying you wanna too :)

Ok so there I was at lev 16 HE war sitting at the highway with the group. Some nice* DE (*relatively) had cast dead man floating on me and at the docks and my group and I were having a fine time killing those pesky orcs. We were waiting for casters while they medded when... out of the blue(the sky is really quite blue in the oasis)a SG heads over the dune next to us and starts attacking our group! I was fooling around with my floating and didn't notice untill I got stuck in a palm tree. (Long story short there are those giant piles of sand and rock that you can run up and I ran up as high as I could, turned around and ran smack into a palm tree. Your know those brown barrels under the leaves that are really Xs, well I got wedged in there.) Anyhoo I was forced to watch as my group was slaughtered and the SG didn't even notice me. Actually it was pretty funny but not to my group.
A lil advice to fellow bards
