Might be worth putting something in about Pet and Epic's. 

I didn't know until I saw in OOC one day that you can give your pet Epic 1.0's from the vendor.  You must be outside Surefall or Nexus to do this and every time you change zones you need to give your pet fresh epic's.  The epic's of choice seem to be Fiery defender and Ragebringer...the healing proc of Fiery Defender in particular is very useful and can in most cases keep my BST and War alive on all bosses in PoTime up to Dragon Slave without any cleric healing or War disciplines (12.5k HP war).

Thanks guys, I appreciate you answering so fast!!

I've read through the newby stuff but hadn't had a chance to check out all the guides, but I am slowly working my way through them

I think a Warrior may be the way to go for my next box, but I'll see how far I can go without neededing that for now.

Thanks again for the answers!

Hello all!  After about 6 years away from EQ I have been sucked back in when I found your server   before I left I had a monk and pretty much exclusively played that class, but with the way you can level here I have been trying out a few different classes.

At the moment I have been using a beastlord as my main and boxing a cleric for heals, it seems to have worked pretty well so far and I have just dinged 70 on both and have been playing in BOT for the past couple of nights I've been able to log in.  I don't think I am much of a multiboxer, but I think I could probably cope with one more...and while I was pondering this last night I thought I would come here with some questions -

1)  What progression of zones should I go for, am currently in the lower levels of BOT...where next?
2)  Is now a good time to start FG/CG?  Or are epic upgrades a better plan?  Or is just killing in lvl 70 zones a better idea to get some better gear?  Or maybe RoA?
3)  How far can I realistically get to with my current 2 box set up?
4)  If I was to add a third box, what would you suggest?  Tank?  crowd control?  something else?
5)  What's the waypoint thingy for in Surefall?

Thanks for any advice
