As I wait for a mob to spawn in a zone (in EQ2), I’m sitting here. Bored to tears. This is one of the biggest annoyances of Everquest 1 & 2. Having to wait and wait and wait. And then wait some more. Then! If you’re lucky, you get to kill the place holder. Rinse and repeat until you get the named. Bleh. Very frustrating!

Last weekend I did the Staff of the Observers HQ — on the step requiring the named kobolds, I spent 1.5 hour each on them — not to mention the time it took to get the drops for the Kobold language quest. Enough to give you an ulcer.
I like EQ2, but those archaic quest mechanics, to use the vernacular, are the ‘suk’.
Just wanted to let you know you’re not alone
