Subject: [EverQuest] Questions
Hello everyone I've got a
few questions that I hope some of you can help me out with.
Ok I haven't really played LoY yet (being that I am in the navy and we
went to sea a couple of days after it came out and I kept getting
booted from the game) and I had a chance to go online and check out the latest
EQ stuff and I saw these monster looking things that you can ride like a
horse. I was wondering what are these things and are they better than
having a horse? Another thing I was wondering is it ture the
fastest horse in the game is Pegasus? One last thing I was wondering
about is that if you go to the horse stalls at the bazaar there is this
merchant selling various items and a couple of them caught my eye, a large bag
of plat and a small bag of plat both of them costing an insane amount of plat
with the small bag costing way more than the large... so my question is does
anyone know what these bags of plat are for and what they do? If anyone
can help me out in answering these questions I'd appericate it. Happy
hunting!

To answer your questions......
The lizard you see people riding are called Drogmars....they are the
mounts sold in the new LoY zone, similar to horses they do not have the horses
head in front of the caster so often they are more sought after.
The bag of platinum you see the merchants having is what players are
handed when they trade in their old horses. The bridles are no-drop so
they cannot be sold the normal way. There is a stable hand there that
you hand a bridle to and he gives you a bag of plat that can be sold.
The big bag might have been a bigger horse but the small bag may have been
from a more expensive horse. They are used to try to get back part of
the expense of the horses.
As for Pegasus, not sure since i had never heard of that, but the general
rule is the more expensive the horse, the faster it runs and the stronger it
is.
