However, I haven't tried out the Qeynos Warrior Newbie Quests (Humans and Half-Elves) and I was kinda wondering if they even got newbie quests, because some races didn't.

Queynos has quests. As well as Surefall. They went in before the dwarven stuff did.
Nice!
Thanks!

By the time you can get a full suit of it, you have enough PP to buy a full suit of banded

Unless you're a fashion whore like me and use the armor to replace banded you already had, like my ranger and paladin have.
And the cleric armor for DE's has AC pretty close to banded, plus it grants wisdom. So it's definitely worth getting your greedy mitts on.
The newb armor for DE Mages isn't bad, but it's not all that and a bag of chips. On the other hand, getting married was an excuse for people to drop twinkish gear and massive amounts of cash-producing gems on me, so my opinion there is screwed all to hell.

The DE cleric armor is great. Lighter than banded, less AC, *but* wisdom on almost every single piece.
And the Surefall ranger armor might be less AC than banded, but it gives stat increases important to rangers.
All in all, the newbie armor I've done or helped get done was definitely worth it.

I've camped the throne room for hours to no avail. Ah well, prolly a held item, and I already got 2 +10 int'ers.
I'll pop over there with Lyinar sometime, or Pandorra, and track. See if I can't locate him, then I can tell you in the chat.

BTW, full suits of newbie armor I've successfully quested for (including final task):
Halfing Warrior: Lotsa str and sta on the pieces, and the best damn weapon reward of all the classes and races: 7/25 10sta 1HS
Human SK of Innoruuk: Not bad in terms of stats, kinda lacking but the stuff looks nice. Charcoal colored. I'm the one that sent that pic in, BTW. Weapon was a 5/28 1HS. :P
Wood Elf Ranger: TONS of str and sta, but no wis! Makes me look like a lime-flavored skittle. Weapon was 6/27.
Dwarven Paladin: Probably the best stats I've seen. Good amounts of melee stats and wis. For some reason the arms give me a total of 30ac. Weapon rocks: 11/40 2 BaneDmg: Undead 2wis 10hp 2HS
All the armors save for int casters and monks have the same AC:
BP: 12ac
Legs: 6ac
Boots: 5ac
Arms: 5ac
Bracer: 4ac
Gloves: 5ac
Helm: 5ac
I've found that the sooner the race got their quests the worse the overall stats on their armor. Go to Allakhazam's and check the quest database, compare the DE warrior armor and weapons to the dwarven or wood elf warrior armor and weapons. [ 08-24-2002: Message edited by: JooJooFlop ]
I mean, it requires level 10'ish to complete, actually higher since it's a group of mobs
By that point you will have the, what, several gold required for a 'Short Sword'?
I know they aren't supposed to be amazing super weapons, but I think that is pushing it
Man, I would NEVER take this thing off
Probabaly the best newbie reward item out there
quote:
JooJooFlop had this to say about Robocop:
One class per most races have a weapon reward like that, Vorago. The human and DE rogues have a 4/27 piercer, the halfling ranger has a weapon with that dmg/dly. I'm sure there are others.
I believe the human rogue piercer in Freeport has a diety restriction on it too, heh

Vorago was naked while typing this:

Nah, I think the halfling warrior and dwarven paladin weapons are at least tied with it. Also maybe the halfling rogue piercer, 6/22.
Heh
Good 'ol Evil daggers
I would take the gnome's over the dwarf's
Now I look at 7/18 weapons that procs 83DD and think it sucks....because it does
If it ain't a 1:2 dam:delay ratio AT LEAST, it sucks
Centi has ruined the economy!
BEER TIME! [ 08-24-2002: Message edited by: Vorago ]

Vorago obviously shouldn't have said:
Dwarven Paly one is 11/40, same stats, but no bane damageI would take the gnome's over the dwarf's
Actually, I have the weapon myself and it also has 2 BaneDmg: Undead. Allakhazams is wrong.

Vorago painfully thought these words up:
OK, I must admit this item downright rocksBEER TIME!
Where does one get that?
My dark elf shadowknight in pure newbie armour, wielding a giant miltia longsword bought off a merchant was great
People always commented on how my equipment sucked
I told them to either to either do something about it in the form of money or items, or just stop whining
Sure, I could have twinked him, but it was more fun getting it myself

And I was all like 'Oh yeah?' and Delidgamond was all like:

Except for monks. But that's only because most people don't know about the Goranga Spiked Club (which would kill the Wu's Trance Stick market).

Let us look at the class, now let us look at the races, now let us look at the face staring out from the picture, now let us look at the deity
It should be self explanatory
Last one for the night, heh
Dang, they really gave some strange spells out for the newbie quests
Granted, the Yaulp thing is pretty cool, heh

Dem things have been in the game forever. At least, some of them have.

It's been out for months at least now. Saroc got his last Spring I think. Handy for the beer parties. I keep it around just for that case with him too. It's the second stage quest, the first stage gotten with 4 Goblin Warbeads or something, the second requireing trips to Unrest and running around to FP and a final stop in Oasis. (Unless of course they changed the quest recently. )

I'm working on that now. It's an excuse to blast High Elves, what more could you want?
Other than for them to actually HAVE the cloaks on them, that is. [ 08-24-2002: Message edited by: Palador ChibiDragon ]
