Boats DO kill !

I think the biggest advantage there would be if this was truly a mob, would be that we can sow the damned thing. I have had a barge kill me actually. Here goes.

Was late in the eve' I was on the island of Timourous Deep My party was hunting and killing nasty smelly Ogres. We pulled a thick mob or two and had our hands full. Brought the mob down and needed a rest. Smell of blood filled the air when we heard the cry of there Chief, The Great Oowomp. He was a bit more then upset. At the time we were already too low to be there anyways. Me being a Dwarven cleric show no fear. I stuck to the last. He stunned and killed our druid, used the ranger like a one handed blunt to beat our warrior. He then turned to me. Sowed, (TPW Total Party whipeout) I lifted my beard (as not to trip on it) and proceeded to run like a girl.

I headed for shore, to see my friend (or so I thought) The Barge! It even seemed to be going outbound in seconds. I ran to jump from shore. The sandy shore surface gave way to my stout form and I sunk in a bit. I went to jump, the horns of my brass helm stuck in the barrels of the barge. I could swear I saw ...

Muck Skimmer now assisting The Great Oowomp with a Valdon Gravedancer!

Oh, by all thats unholy, my polygons literally became entangled in this beast. I Think it may have been some kind of root, where I was dragged, drowning, along with it. While the The Great Oowomp worked on my spine like a fine tuned instrument. I be a tough old dwarf, but with the water and his might, was too much for me.

I still to this day Owe that strange creature an... Iksar? My 1000's thanks. I was dragged and dropped along zone line, and not really that close to boats path... I checked that. Rumor spread (When I shouted) that Great Oowomp stole your body and had quite a collection. For without his swimming skill I would NEVER have found my body. All of my gear would have been lost. He also found 1 of my party member's corpses. I wish I knew his name still. Very kind to me, aside fromt he fact he probably makes sandwiches from my kind....... Boats DO KILL !!! Or at least Assist... Maybe it was GM controlled. laugh.

Boats can kick.
Boats can smash.
Boats are mean.
Boats are level 120.
Boats cast spells.
The spells do 4000 damage.
Boats can slash.
Boats drop 200plat.
Boats are evil.
Boats are dark elves in disquise.
Boats lurk at night.
Boats stalk thier prey.

I think if a boat is listed in the beastiery with a level as well, WE SHOULD BE ABLE TO KILL IT!

They deserve to die for moving so damned slow.

You have to cast identify on this barge thing! Reads as "A Giant Stinking Giant Foot's Cast". Keep up poisonRES though, as soon as you realize its true form, you begin taking stench damage. Almost the same as the poisonous gnome bites or elfy ogre farts. You never know with these Verant guys eh?

I buffed a boat once...
It was pretty ugly when it took advantage of leviate... a vicious boat out of water... musta killed half the people in the zone before a few GM's zoned in and killed it. Told me never to do that again or they'd delete my account.

Hmm... What did you expect to see here? It's a bestiary page for a @#%^ing boat. Were you hoping for some elite quest? Some sort of stimulating conversation that delves deep into the psyche of men, somehow linking the trip on a @#%^ING BOAT MADE OF BARRELS to a high, etheral state of being unfathomable to the unenlightened minds of the non barrel barge clique? Of course you didn't. At least I should hope not. As for calling someone a NOOB, ponder this. If you came to the info page of, I reiterate, A GODDAMNED BOAT, expecting anything other than idle chatter and humor... you, sir, are the noob for thinking you would find anything of substance here. I'll spare you a tirade of insults, the likes of which have not been seen since Sadulir the wood elf ran off with a Feir'dal and simply leave you with these words, should you ever come here again: Live a little, smile; get a @#%^ing sense of humor.

i once killed one of these, was easy for a 55th lvl mage, i got about 67 pp from it and it dropped a few nice weapons, dropped one 1hs weapon, 10/26 +5 str, and some resistances. some other 1 and 2 hb weapons, i would recomend camping this for anyone who wants good loot and money, exp isnt as great as most things this lvl but it drops some nice stuff if you looking for money

Hi, its me, Farluss, now i'm the 57th season shaman :o) I just wanted to say I'm not a dumbass and if I was the creator of the game, I would make the iksar god and I would control him and kill you all. Then I would control the Tangrin in FoB and murder all the iksar newbs there. It would be fun :o)

Does it not strike anyone else odd that people wonder what kind of loot a boat would have?
I mean, really. Why fight a boat? It couldn't fight back.
And how could you loot a boat, anyway?
--You have looted a rusty anchor--
--You hvae looted a broken rudder--
You now have a splinter in your finger that is going to remain there forever and become in fested and swell and grow gangrenous and dripp puss all over your armor, and you will die from it.

# May 05 2001 at 11:19 PM Rating: Default
you know, it would be interesting to loot a barrel barge. Like I said about the boat, it may drop the Wooden Plank Staff +50 to all resists and +100 to all attributes. VERY VERY VERY rare drop. Common drop is a wooden shaft to make arrows, and uncommon drop is a " Piece of broken flute" for a Freeport bard quest and the extremely rare drop is the "Unknown piece of flesh" You take it to Tunare in the Plane of Growth and she gives you 10k for it. lol. Also, when you give it to her, she'll reward you with the Wooden Plank Staff, so you wont have to kill the barge or boat again. (hehe, I'm not done yet.)
Whew...I hate talkin this much, cramps in my fingers. Ok, ok, the rarest drop next to the staff is the " Mystikal Staff of Mischief" It would be the key o get into the Plane of Mischief.
Are you excited? it sounds exciting but its only one of my odd suggestions, if you want to see another one of my suggestions, take a look at what i wrote for the "Boat". ONE more thing, if you want to get to the POM, go to the Oasis with the "Mystikal Staff of Mischief" and enter through the top of Spectre tower, although, you'll have to be a high enough lvl to kick spectre ass, but I think you can manage it. Enter the portal to the Plane of Hate and find Cazic Thule. Get a group to help you kill him and then when hes dead, loot the "Unholy top of Mischief". You'll have to run to Thuragdin in Velious and hail High Priest Thufiran and he will say, "What do you be seeking in the vast faceless city?" You say, " I have the key to the Plane of Mischief" he will say, "Excellent! Excellent! Here, take this bag and create the final key to the Plane of Mischief!" He will give you a "Chest of unknown Power" and combine the Staff and the Top and you will create, " The Beholders staff of Mischief" it has no attributes, but its the only way to get into the POM. When you are done, talk to Thufiran and he will say, "Splendid! you have created the key which no man has ever created! go! and forfill the wishes of Bristlebane Thizzlethorpe! He shall guide you when you get there!" ( hehehe, this sounds pretty long, doesnt it?) Well, when hes done talkin, you are TP'd to a giant gate, and it will say ZONING PLEASE WAIT..........
YOU HAVE ENTERED THE UNKNOWN GATEWAY
And you will see a giant gate with two guards that look like Cazic Thule! But if you worship Bristlebane, you will have no problem gettin past them, if you dont worship Bristle, then you're in a hell of a lot of trouble my friend. Here's what ya do. if you are lvl 60+, then you will have an advantage, see, you root the stupid things and run like hell! they hit for around 3000-4000 damage and you cant bind in this unknown zone, so you better not blow it! You not have a chance of getting your corpse back if you die so be careful!!! When you get to the giant doors that have blue light peering through, click on the door and it will pop a one slot box up that says "Key hole" and place the Staff you created in Thuragdin in the one slot and hit enter and then it will say, " You have now unlocked the Plane that was once forgotten, be aware that this area is a similarity to hell, so be cautious and aware of what lerks in here...Go! And God's Speed with you mortal! And then....ZONING PLEASE WAIT..
...................................................................................................................................................... CONGRATULATIONS! YOU HAVE ENTERED THE PLANE OF MISCHIEF LOL, right when you enter, you'll be attacked by a humongous steel golem that hits for 5000dmg or more! but if you worship Bristlebane, he'll con to you apprehensively or indifferently. when you get past the golem, you'll see a giant bridge, cant even see the other end!! you'll have to cross it and on the way, you'll run into giant fire drakes, bigger then Trakanon! Bigger than Voxx! bigger than Lord Nagafen!!! I'm tellin ya, they're huge!!!! Get past the bridge alive and you'll see big fat hairy toed Bristlebane Thizzlethorpe by a giant hole which they call his, " Domain " Hail him and he will say, " Hello worthy traveler, I know you have come a long way to get here so I will spare your life. If you shall want to explore my " domain " trust in your inner self and jump in this rather "big" hole we are standing next to." If you jump, you die, so dont do it. thizzlethorpe is playin with your head. What you should do is put on lev, hit the guy, and run run run across the giant "canyon" and turn around when ya get to the other side an you'll see that Bristlebane is kaput. the moron just jumped right in! lol! when hes rid of, he is actually...a placeholder...yes thats right, a placeholder... After about 5 hours of Bristle's death, a very rare enemy named, well, its a familiar name to you maybe, " Bertoxxulous." hehe, you thought he was a legend, nope. Hes real as gold. If you want to get your ass kicked, all you have to do is walk up to him and " hail Bertoxxulous " and he will say...this is a killer..." Mortal! What for are thou disturbing me?! None shall come here on behalf of Bristlebane Thizzlethorpe!" and guess what? yep, he uses his spell " Death's strong touch" and ya know what? He hits ya for over 10000 damage with that spell an you die, also, you lose your body cuz it falls in the big hole. if you want to get it, go get a lev and go on down. I have no hell of an idea on what is down there. if theres anything you see down there that is interesting, tell me or post it up..signing off....

Ok, a few days ago, I bought a few different EQ accounts on Ebay. All of them were lvl 60 bristle worshippers. Basically, a little herd of halflings. Anyway, with the first two accounts, I tried getting my MR up really high. But unfortunately, Bertoxx still killed me. I only had one account left, so I went ahead and popped a lev on me, and went down the hole. i floated downwards, passing a torch occasionally. Finally hit the loading screen. You have now entered Plane of Mischief Basement. Wasn't much down there for a while. After traveling about the distance as a crow flies from one end of GFay to the other, I came across a named Rainbow Pony. I think her name was Veliizi. She conned indifferent to me, so I hailed her. She gave me a box and a letter that was in an unknown language. Then a poorly build model of Cheech Marin teleported in and told me to check my guildmaster or something. So I bound my self near the pony and cheeech, then teleported to the druid ring in BB. Ran to the druid guild up in Keletin and checked the skill list for anything new. Had a new language to learn! Ponese. So I dropped about 50 points in it and read the letter. a few letters were jumbled up, but I managed to make it out. It was directions to hunt down an exhumed rainbow pony. So I gated back to the bind point near the pony and Cheech Marin. Checked my track... had a bunch of rainbow ponies on there and one exhumed pony. It was actually pretty close by to where I was, behind some large, bulbous orange plants. It conned a low blue to me, so I just kited him around a bit, just to be safe. Looted him. Had no cash on him, but he did have a decomposed horse mane on him. So I stuck it the box. There were two slots in the box though... I hailed the named pony again, and got no response. So i figured, what the hell, and I hailed Cheech. He babbled on a while about how the dead pony was reanimated and finally gave me a Large Spliff. I put in in the box and hit combine and got a Noxious Twisted Joint. Had stats on it of -100 int +200 cha. Pretty worthless, unless you just want to make a lot of money or have hella long charm spells. So I gave the doob to the pony. It whinnied and bit, and fired it up and smoked it. The pony then gave me the Rainbow Brite Scimitar of Colorific Mas Ubersan. stats were 45/22 +50 int +50 wis +100 sta +45 str and 50 sv to all resistences. also procs Form: Badger unlimited charges. Hopes this helps out, guys.

The Barge gos from the Oasis to Ogre Island wher you have to run around and to the right to get to the Other pier/dock. There wait for the boat to take you to the Overthere.

The barge comes to the dock there in oasis on the mainland. It comes about every 15 minutes I would guess. The boat then takes you to Ogre island in Timorous Deep which is its only stop.

Boat to Overthere is...?
# May 04 2000 at 10:54 AM Rating: Decent
I went from Oasis to the Ogre Camp in the Timorous Deep. Anyone know where to catch the boat to The Overthere? I asked the zone and the response people gave was, "It's overthere." That was it, I gated to Oasis and my lvl 47 DRU friend gave personal escort to Lake of Ill Omen. I got "overthere" quicker than those back in the Ogre Camp!
