Legacy of Ykesha
Does anyone else find it ironic that this is a "Giant" Black Drum but its size is "tiny"?

Very un-scientific, but did a little speed test on SoE vs. Giant Drogmar in PoK.
From the Ak' Anon Stone to the Nexus stone in PoK, back against the walls from a standing start:
Drogmar: 17 Seconds
SoE: 21 Seconds
Repeated a couple of times, same results, just an observation to give you an idea of the speed difference.
This doesn't account for the wind resistnace caused by the Bard that blew by me like I was standing still in both test cases.... :) <J/K>
The only negative about the Drogmar is that it takes it a couple of secs to get up to speed and they don't exactly stop on a dime.... if you want to stop, you need to plan ahead.

This is from a post on one of the other drums, not sure how accurate it is: https://everquest.allakhazam.com/db/item.html?item=19374&mid=10482591553455
Also, someone else was posting about hailing the NPCs that you buy the Drogmoors from, and noticed a good quote.

So, from reading his quote:
SMALL Drums = 25% Movement Rate Increase
Drums (No size name) = 50% Movement Rate Increase
LARGE Drums = 60% Movement Rate Increase
GIANT Drums = 70% Movement Rate Increase
Hope this helps, took me a bit to find all of the info (wish Allak would post the speeds on the effect link or something ... or if not Allak, at least Lucy
)

So in the spirit of nicking info from somewhere else (care of Zestee):
here are the speeds of the Horses and therefore Drogmor...
9K Rope Bridle = 25% Movement Rate Increase
30K Leather Bridle = 50% Movement Rate Increase
60K Silken Bridle = 60% Movement Rate Increase
100K Chain Bridle = 70% Movement Rate Increase

Thanks

Hail the Gnomes near the guy that sells the drogs then give drum to the one that says the color u have, then you have to sell a bag of platinum to the guy that sells the drogs - TIP - stand between him and the banker when u do it so not to be encumbered! /smiles

I have a black drum and would like to upgrade it to a Giant Black Drum, Can anyone tell me how to do this?
Vailin is the gnome to give your black drums to. He is standing to the RIGHT of the banker/merchant

One of the gnomes will buy back present horse for 60% or so buy new drogmar. You just have to find particular gnome for particular color drog.

Posted: Jan 19 2004 at 2:55 AM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) Just so everyone knows ...... DONT EVER BUY A HORSE!!! Buy a Drogmor instead. The horses big fat head partially blocks your view and is a targetting nightmare. Drogmor heads dont block your view and are every bit as fast as horses. HORSES REALLY, REALLY SUCK!!!
