Oh gosh me and other merchants made so much free coin doing that from people early on.

And even when the majority caught on, there were still people who'd sell to catshops for below 10k and give extra profit from that. b:chuckle

I remember the times when i opened a best token of luck, i get spammed by merchants to sell it for 1m b:bye

I remember when people still called it "HH", as if this were still PWCN or the Beta.

Pretty sure the HH in that quote meant Head Hunter. :P


Though consider we also have Hell Hounds maybe everyone was standing around a mount while yelling for BH squads. b:laugh

Remember when Calamity axe barbs were scary.

When fb59 was hard to do.

When farming mats to make wines could start a small war between 3-8 players.

PVP over rare pet spawns.

Legendary pets actually being rare to see (nix and herc).

People accidentally pulling that mini boss near the mines and killing everyone with its aoe.

West gate pvp making things interesting when you first hit level 30 and try to sneak in without being roflstomped by a level 60+

When people having high crafting skills actually took time, effort and a lot of frustration attempting to craft the correct items.

When 1mil was alot of money.

b:sad i miss the old times.

Remember having to kill mobs in a certain order to open the doors to get to the other bosses (51 being the longest)

Remember having to go out of FB51 for the last boss quest, and having to be escorted back in because of the wanderers that spawn after you kill the first boss

Remember when people were camping the area you were questing in and you either had to
sneak out or log off for a bit

Remember when west was full of pk

Remember when you couldn't fly in SP

Remember when people used to lure bosses to ADC and see the massive death of catshops

Remember when red people used to lure guards through ADC so they would kill other red players

Remember when you could farm nirvana and gear yourself with it and have enough for charms

Remember when spot 30 on world quest was camped at times and you had to be smart to turn it in...either immune pot or stun them

Remember when the only way to kill world bosses was to have a whole guild do it

Remember when guilds would crash other guilds doing world bosses and sometimes steal the drops which only made use smarter...we would lure the boss to another spot and do it

I remember on my first couple of characters, we had to have a cleric standing out of AoE range healing another cleric who healed a barb in order to kill Jewels. And Krimson was an absolute nightmare to get done.

Good times.

Though I don't miss the days before autopath.... I always had to look at the map a zillion times to get myself going in the right direction. And the days before BH were a bit tedious. My veno levelled into the 90s pretty much by grinding and BH was a welcome addition.

Tye - Harshlands

One of the things I remember most about the early days is being in one of those player made private chat rooms called "fb help" and it'd have 20ish+ players in it most of the time. Someone needing there fb19 would get like 15 replies in the chat room asking to join.

I also miss the dungeons being tough. When your fb's were a fun learning experience as opposed to what they are now, a yawn fest. When I make a new character nowadays, I usually try to find level appropriate squads for my fb's; I might as well be trying to find the holy grail.

Mayfly - Dreamweaver

I remember 3 and 4 clerics, some out of squad, healing a barb for Krimson... and sometimes failing even so. And everyone else having to stand around and watch, on that little peak just off Krimson's path.

I remember a lot of things others have mentioned, too

veronicae

remember when the squad went pale and silent when you asked in TT if they wanted to try belial?

And how it usually ended in squad wipes with a few exceptions of ppl who knew how to time their sparks? b:chuckle

LostPoet - Dreamweaver

remember when we formed tt squads to farm and split mats at the end?

Haha. Me too. And BH19. Good times.

Needless to say, we failed. Lol.

I'm sure that was for lulz but then I thought of the number of people who'd think there was a BH19 if they saw this and I got depressed from the thought.

Warfare - Sanctuary

I remember when...

...there were no TBs or EGs. Life was a lot simpler.

...BMs using fists were considered stupid. It was all about them axes and poles.

...Butterfly or any AOEing parties wherever there's a crazy spawn.

...people would show off their x4 Immaculate Citrine thunder effect on their armour as opposed to expensive fashion. Because it just look so damn cool.

...Venomancers were trying to catch a Shaoudu Cub and other rare pets and some higher level always used those channeling pots. Or the jerk or someone questing in that area kills the rare pet. Oops (I killed them before). b:shutup

...you actually befriend someone (rarely happens nowadays imo) and you make new characters together that compliments each other (i.e. Barb/Cleric).

...Scarlet Ninetails was the bomb. Everyone and their moms wanted one.

...Jewelscalen. Enough said.

...you fly to 1K just to feel cool or pro with all the higher levels there.

...you actually explore the world map for the teleport points.

...you see WCs about people asking clerics to revive them at the Swamp of the Wraiths.

...you have a gold mold weapon and feel proud or when the mold drops and goes to you.

...people help out with FBs to get more rep and a chance get those rep tags.

...Fireworks events. I never see these now.

...Mount parades everywhere. Starting from Arch to Ether and then go back to Arch and downwards.

...and that's all I can think of right now.
