Okay, well, as most of you know, I don't have a lot of experience being above level 5 - due to my short attention span and need to change characters every week. . .

BUT...I now have a level 16 Druid that I really enjoy playing. Anyways, my guild informed me that I should go for this "Testament of Vanear" quest. (The result of the quest is a really nice WIS/MANA(?) book. Anyways, I complete the first part of the quest easily, and get page 1 of the quest with no problems (except maybe now I'm out about 50pp after giving that Moodoo guy 4 gold about 10,000 times to get one freakin' Jester card...).... But it could've been worse. (And believe me, it did get worse...)

Sooo.
I'm off to Highpass Hold to camp this Dilyan Starshine (sp?) guy. I had a high level guild-mate come with me, because, I was told, I probably couldn't take Starshine on alone....

And...BTW, Starshine only spawns once every 8 or so hours...So we're sitting there, waiting. (I expected a HUGE line, but were were all alone, until.....)

...This Wood Elf appears!!!

And I'm thinking..."KS me, and die."...

But she was really nice, and explained that she had been waiting for this guy to pop for awhile. Just then, my guild-mate partner has to leave.....And so the friendly Wood Elf and I decided to make this plan: We'd take turns camping Starshine, like in shifts. And whoever was camping him when he popped could have the last page that he drops (to complete the quest), and the other person would help bring him down. Then it would go vice-versa for the next time he popped, so we'd both end up helping eachother out....

So, we're waiting all evening....

And it's 9:50 PM, and it was her turn to camp, so I went back to Highpass Keep enterance to wait for my turn, and she went to camp Starshine. Then about 15 minutes later, she pops back at the enterance where I am, and I'm like "WTF?? You died???" But she didn't answer, so I immediately gated back to the Starshine camp (where I had bound myself), and JUST THEN Starshine was being brought down by another Druid who had - as they said - "just logged on"...

I was happy for them, though, and congratulated them...

It was just a crazy night.

*whines*...And I want that book. =P

I remember that guy, I camped him for 7 and a half hours....it sucks...but I got the book

Same thing. I could've quoted this and said nothing, but that would have angered the masses!

Now I don't know why I remember my FIRST camping experience, but it made me a problem EQ-child, and that's why I am me. Thank you.

Tier had this to say about pies:
Did they call a camp check you didn't answer? If not, that's outright KS...

Well, my friend and I weren't exactly right AT the camp scene - since she had left it unguarded for a -split second- when she died, and when I gated back, it was too late.

The person who came along and killed Starshine did say she "just popped on, and didn't see anyone around"...So she didn't feel she needed to call for a camp check, I guess.

So I guess no-one has any right to feel they've been KS'ed... it was just sooo dissapointing....we were so close! hehe... =P

And Snoota . . . .

*RUNS!!!!*
