The Gnome

race logoThe Gnome starts off in the far city of Ak'Anon on the continent of Faydwer and generally hunts in the Steamfont Mountains during his or her formative years. Gnomes get their own unique trade skill: tinkering. What is the best strategy for playing a Gnome? What zones and cities should you take him to and which ones should you avoid? Which factions should you work on improving, and which factions should you be wary of decreasing? What are the best quests in Ak'Anon for the beginning Gnome? Where are the best shops in Ak'Anon? How should you role play your gnome?

Post your strategies on how to best play a Gnome, and read, rate and comment on those posted by others.

I personally love my little lady (Eci server). She's an absolute hoot to play and anyone who comes in contact with her remembers her - mostly because there are so few gnome warriors running around. Ok, ok ... her bright blue dyed steel armor tends to help. ;)

Anywho, play the game as you'd like to play. I'm not a powerhungry leveler or out to make vast amounts of loot - I'm a roleplayer. I can't for the life of me think of a better character to fit my needs on that game.

which is it do you like banannas or eggs make up your damn mind
See that is why i dislike Ogres
# Oct 15 2001 at 5:55 PM Rating: Default
Ogres for some reason they think they are the absolute best, so gnomes are weak (also think he is lying) but they are the best they rock!! I am a gnome if you are so big buddy, I will take you down gnomes may be weak, but we can beat anyone (yes even erudites) we can nuke everyone!!!!!!!!!!
GNOME POWER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

you wanna know what i think.I think gnomes are the worst posably warriors and they can never have as much str as a ogre and that is why ogres are the supreme rulers of the land of norrath so dont ***** with ogres oh and i am on Morell Thule and i think a lvl 60 ogre warrior can kick a gnomes a s s so duel me and meet and i will show you the power of 205 str 205sta and 205dex and we will see who wins

Heh, come to Kunark Dracus, and let us dance. We think that your mighty power is pretty pathetic. Better yet, simply face off with a gnomish necromancer ~ they will gnaw on your bones even before your dim brain realizes you are dead.

I for one believe the little guys are stronge and powerfull. Me a 22 Vah Shir warrior (Kibath Lythenstein) have fought side by side with a gnome warrior and he has shown the ability to hit the enemy where it hurts. Now if you think for one second that your lvl 60 Ogre warrior can beat a gnome then try. They will run circles around your slowness. They are quick and agile , that is what makes them better. Sure you can take the damage and dish it out but how can you hit something that is running around you biting your ankels. I think you over estimate the gnomish warrior. Do to my friends little gnome I have created a gnome Pally awesome combo I say. When my warrior reaches 60 I will always be a gnome defender because its gnomes like Flaten that give gnomes a good name. So, just another point bronze is not all that if you can not see or hit your target....hehe
Gnomes are awesome
# Oct 12 2001 at 11:54 AM Rating: Decent
The gnome warrior is the best combo in the game....especially if you roleplay an insane gnomish warrior...I've scared a lot of newbies like that...lol.

What other race can you say things like "YOUR KNEES ARE MINE" or "YOUR BOOTS WILL MAKE NICE PANTS WHEN I DESTROY YOU"

I am the one of the few little person on the face of Norrath who is able to say that gnomes do make the best warriors, why because I've tried EVERY single one. Thats right, every class that could be a warrior I have been, so far the gnome is the best EVER, not that gnomes have the best stats(that goes to dwarves hands down) but that they are just the greatest to play. I love RPing, its what makes EQ the best game ever. And when it comes to little buff monsters, gnomes ROCK.
good guild

Hi all I just want to let you know that when the RP server (firiona vie) comes out that i want to start a good guild. This guild would hand in their tomes of order and discord to have the server wide uniqueness of having red names and we would be able to kill any evils that would hand in their tomes too.

send me an email at phil0@hotmail.com to talk about it
or add me to your MSN list using phil0@hotmail.com
and my icq# is 70953900

What the heck?
# Sep 09 2001 at 1:10 PM Rating: Default
Why is it that all i see is Gnome CASTERS, there are no Gnome warriors. i have a Gnome warrior on mith marr server, lvl 24 Ztik. He is one of my FUNNEST Characrters i play. He lacks str/str but he makes up for it with SUPER HIGH Dex/agi, Dex = A LOT of crit hits, Agi = HIGHER ac. Those are a deadly combo. i made him only cause they look so funny in plate armor, hehe. But i learned to love him. i now play him most of the time instead of my lvl 40 Barb Rogue, kkrasy iceWolf. And never forget to run UNDER the Barb WOMEN, Ztik's last name is Skirtlifter, i love it, can't see qanything but it is a good way to say hello. i hope you all will make a gnome warrior for more then the abbilty to look up Robes/ Dresses. But hey if it tikles ya pickle.

I agree gnomes make the best Warriors. Not cause their the stronges but there's not much funnier than having a tiny little gnome kick a big old Sarnak Recruits ***. We need more gnome warriors!

Tinkering
# Sep 02 2001 at 11:48 AM Rating: Decent
I am considering starting a Gnome and I was wondering if tinkering is worth it. The ONLY reason I was going to start a Gnome is for tinkering. Thanks.
RE: Tinkering
# Sep 07 2001 at 7:23 PM Rating: Default
If you start a gnome JUST to tinker, I think thats kinda stupid, start a character JUST for a
skill, but Tinkering is a very usefull skill, and you cant really start it until lvl 16, but I think if you started a Gnome, you'd learn to like the Gnome, not just the tinkering, the only 2 characters I play now a Gnomes, a Gnome Wizard and a Necromancer

RE: tinkering or jewler
# Sep 08 2001 at 6:59 PM Rating: Default
I would personally choose Tinkering, becuase it can be extreamlly helpful, plus its a Gnome-only skill. BUT, Jewlery can get you more money, and you can start doing it sonner, you cant Tinker till lvl 16 really, anyways, if you still cant decide, do both, do Jewlery until lvl 16, then tinker :)
RE: tinkering or jewler
# Sep 04 2001 at 11:23 PM Rating: Default
Gnome warriors aren't very strong, be the chanter or the rogue. I'd personally like the rogue better though.
RE: tinkering or jewler
# Sep 26 2001 at 12:29 PM Rating: Default
i am a lvl 12 gnome chanter and do both. i make mostly fireworks with tinkering and sliver stuff with jeweling
