This page is here to link to almost every single one of my guides. Due to the compatibility issues with Internet Explorer I understand that the html drop down bars sometimes do not operate as they should. These ToC (Table of Contents) pages should take care of those issues. Also keep in mind you can always right click and move the mouse over the drop down menu, making it so it will not disappear once you get past the third option on the list.
Farming is the most common method of getting cash. It's also one of the most effective ways for instant cash. Farming can get boring (As will everything) but sometimes it's actually fun to just sit back and kill stuff. Below is a list of all of the best things to farm, most of the methods that I list are for people like me, that aren't in full raid gear or 2k + AA's. Click on one of the links below for your level range to see the best farming locations;
This section contains leveling guides for Everquest. I've seperated each guide into a different section, depending on what type of path you'd like to take while leveling up. There isn't any "Right" path, but I recommend Path 1 to anyone who wants to level quickly, and Path 4, of course if you want to make some extra cash. (Advertisement: How you choose to play game is solely up to you and the decisions you make are based on what type of online play you are interested in. You can have the best online MBA and level up more slowly than the sophomore in high school, and a masters in public administration would probably help you level more quickly than a masters in computer science.)
I've also included the Mines of Glooming Deep (As seen below) and started to work on Newbie zones.
DISCLAIMER: As a helpful note and reminder I'm not claiming that these are the fastest leveling paths and I'm also not saying avoid the hotzones. These are simply my suggested leveling paths. Consider it this way Hotzones are suggested zones made by Sony to level up in and what you find on this page are suggested zones Almar recommends leveling in. =P
This section is dedicated to giving you a list of the best places possible for you to grind out AA XP at any level range. Instead of giving you a path to follow like I normally do this guide will provide you with specific individual locations. At any time during the level range listed and AA prerequisite requirements you will be able to go to this zone. An example of the format I will use to show you these zones can be seen below.
Plane of Fire: C1 (70 - 78) (This will be clickable and will take you to the page for that location, Also tells you level range.) AA Prerequisite: 100 (This will tell you how many well placed AA's you should have before coming here.) Damage Dealt: 200 - 550 (This will tell you about how much the mobs hit for.) AAs Per Hour: 7 (This will tell you about how many AAs you should expect every hour from this location.) PP Per Hour: 2,000+ (This will tell you about how much plat you will make every hour here.) Mercenary Requirement: Yes/No (This will tell you if you need a Mercenary to hunt here or not.) Classes: All (This will tell you what classes can hunt here.) Other: Don't summon, low resists, are Headshotable, few named spawns (Other important information about the camp.)
To prevent any confusion about the AA Prerequisite section, the "Important" AAs that I am talking about refer to the defensive AAs. These include Combat Agility, Combat Stability, Natural Durability, Physical Enhancement and so on and so forth. All of these are very important for you to get and should be acquired very early on. Of course if you're a caster you'll want to make sure you are able to take a beating or have the best pet available to you at the time. No one will know your limits better than you, so keep that in mind.

Everquest Progression Server Guides
Well, since so many people use my Everquest guides for things such as Farming, Leveling or whatever else I decided why not expand my guides to cover SoE's new Progression Servers! So I brainstormed a bit and thought of exactly the type of guides that would help people, Leveling and Farming. Both of which are still in the "alpha" stages of development but I just couldn't wait any longer to make this page and post about what I've gotten done so far.
As many of you know, the progression server is a server that will slowly take us from expansion to expansion so we can experience the whole game over again how it was meant to be seen. My goal with this new section of my website is to create guides to help people get high enough level or enough money to better help them experience the EQ experience. Now keep in mind I'm not claiming these guides will help you ding max level over night or make a bajillion plat, use them more or less as guide lines of which zone to go to, what to farm, what is worth looting and what isn't.
If you find any issues with my guides or if you need more assistance than what is provided feel more than welcome to send me a tell in-game at any time. My character is Almar on the Fippy Darkpaw server. If I don't respond the first time, try again later, I may have been AFK. I do not ignore anyone, so don't think you're being ignored, I may just be busy (I get a lot of tells every day).
