What is your favourite eq that you always try to get first thing you log in ?

First of all I try to get Harthorn's Strange cloak, Filigree ring (my favourite ring), and then Flesh medallion or Amulet of Wizardy or Oomph

I can't actually be bothered to look for good equipment :(
I usually:
1) Get something from the ground (more seldom from a share room)
2) Keeping the best equipment I come over when killing (obviously I kill different monsters when playing different chars (guild related etc)

I don't normally use uniques, just standard GOOD equipment.
Damn boring, huh ;)

not much interested in uniques even if they are good to have. the normal eq from Assembly's SR is good enough for me. if possible i'd like to have a better weapon (unique).

oh and i have to mention ... i hate stashers. :evil:

bleh, dont care about uniques.

I agree, my favourite equipment is the standard equipment.

I usually gather a set I can keep (normal items that doesn't disappear), so I know I always have a full set.

Uniques are often overrated (except for some guilds who desperately need them to be any good) and they take time to get often, time I get to actually play instead ... which is worth more for me, as I don't always stay on for very long periods at a time, more like many quick logins instead.

Oh, and my favourite eq is a mix of Vincent's and Finnaidain's stuff :)

Me too! It's so anti-social...and the stashers I disliked the most...were Leper stashers. You could always tell a Leper stash. Whatever happened to helping your fellow guildmates. Thats what sharerooms are for!

/Snafu :D

My claws   :twisted:

Good point, Ally.
The vamp guild is simply amazing. This is just one great thing among the others.

I used to just get what ever the shareroom offered, but here lately I have been skipping over to BK, Light Leaf Forest and killing a small thief, using him to make a tree and then Killing Fezzik (nekkid) with one heal maybe, and just wear everything he has  :lol: I used to borrow it all from the guild, now I just go grab it straight off, made my SR points go up quite a bit. I love it, I like all his equipment and its a full set :D

Oops I shouldnt post earlier than my brain works, I didnt realize the subject was What is my favorite stuff, not what do i normally play with..

My favorite stuff is what is listed above, but to make me Druidishly Happy I like

Plate of Bark - unobtainable for a Druid, So I have to wait to find one or be loved by someone who will give it to me

Hickory Staff - Makes me One Cool druid

Nest of Birds - who doesnt like a little oomph in their attacks

Silk Gloves - paired with the Hickory Staff and wow!!

There are  a few others I like, maybe for the messages they give, maybe its a light source amulet, Since druids dont use swords though, I dont know anything much about them... :D and tend to covet more armours and amulets

I'll continue to stash my stuff until I can actually store it somewhere and have it there next time I login ... not get stupid excuses like "Oooops! We lost your stuff, here, take cash and tape it all over your body or throw them at the enemy, it won't be as good but who cares!".

And sharerooms are good, but you can't rely on them to have what you need next time you login.

And what harm are stashers anyways? Except for a couple of badly coded uniques, one's stash doesn't harm anyone, as uniques are reclaimed if not used by players (and in that area, the mud is much better these days to snatch these things back, sometimes too good, but you can't fool it anymore like they did in the past).

I remember a particularly easy way to stash was to give an item to a monster...if it wasn't killed often, then it was usually there when you returned...a quick kill and you have your item(s) back!

/Snafu :D

The very first thing I grab when I log on is a backpack.  I could absolutely not be able to play without one ;)

A list of my favorite equipment is actually quite easy...

My Falcon
A box of bandages

a backpack is a nice addition, but from those first two I can usually work my way up - and the best part is I don't have to worry about them being available!

When I played...ages ago...a backpack was also my first piece of equipment that I bought! Backpacks rule!

(sidenote - rumor: Poogie hides her blackpack under her bed because she's a darkie at heart!)

/Snafu :D

Hey, I can't believe you'd spread rumors like that here! How could you!
I mean come on Snafu, you KNOW that thread belongs under the rumours and gossip heading...

An arm and a pack full of leper bandages.

Bah, only Natassja uses a blackpack and none of my other personalities know about her! I am the only one that knows them all and the rest have just heard rumours.
Back on subject....my favourite eq....
I love Sharana's eq from Leo's area. It's rarely there and it has been downcoded (or at least *really* seems to have been) but I love it.
I like to dual wield her sword with SoI and wear the silk gloves.
Add the chainmail shirt and my beloved dreamcloak (not Harthorn's, the one from the guy whose name I can't spell.) and I am in *LOVE* or at least Poe is. :p
/P and all her personalities

There's plenty of wizard names that you can't pronounce...
Krzhugngr, Czygorwan, Weifcr and myself once pondered creating an area together. The names alone would have driven people insane.

Back to the topic: I regard the backpack as indispensable equipment. :)

/Snafu :D

Well, a long time ago, putting your unqiues on monsters locked them there as long as the monster lived ... they were never reclaimed.

Thankfully those days are long gone :)

As long as there are restrictions, there will be ways around it. It's a way of life.

Back to the topic: Backpacks rule!

/Snafu :D

Ok, so some people think backpacks rule, but wouldn't it be great if there were more choices?  I mean what about duffel bags, sling bags and satchels?  There's at least a few players I think would be comfortable with a briefcase.

Actually, as much as I like backpacks, I am also rather fond of the sack from Bogg's shop.

But the point is fantasy...they had backpacks (or rucksacks) and things to hold things in medieval times...but i doubt they had briefcases ;)

Back to the topic: Backpacks roxxors

/Snafu :D

I'm also a fan of backpack, but don't forget rock'n'roll sack which rules too, especially for sims.

And just wonder, does anyone use a purse to keep his money into ?   :P

I saw the purse originally and I laughed...makes ya wonder sometimes.

Back to topic: Backpacks smackpack blackpack!

/Snafu :D

But Spamfu.... wasn't the topic at hand whats your favorite equipment? ;)

Of course! And backpacks are equipment too!

/Snafu :D

Heh, well this sword might not be THAT good actually but it's still a favourite cause me and the Sulhelka has been through a lot together, it's simply nostalgia to wield it  :twisted:

"Just don't expect to get your little black Backpack Back!"

I always try to wear good equipment, I am not sure if thease are indeed good, and I am sure not the best ...

jaguar mask or black mask
jaguar amulet
jaguar skin, Iana's robe perhaps for light, angel wings
Idaain's armour or Paragon's plate
gloves? dunno. Silk ones if possible ...
ring of lies bc of light
black boots of elements, perhaps wolfskin boots
Gigel's, fine longsword, lately this white runesword seems okay, don't know where it came from, claws ... depends.
Backpack, blackpack, rock'n'roll sack perhaps, depending on guild

I don't really know uniques because I am not THAT active lately to explore and play a lot...

For my sim i use ... rock and roll sack :D and great amulet of wizardry.
 For my khorne ... One good sword(fleshfinder) that I can use it with the golden shield,
ring of lies or truth for light,a good cloak that can handle a few hits, one pack and couple of sacks  :twisted: Usually only my sword is unique.
 
  I used to play with berseker sword alot and I still think thats a great sword.

oooooooo White runesword, pack my falcon, and bandages... oh and platemail!

Sidenote: It's Snafu's pack  :wink:
