Is EverQuest PvP? (Player
versus Player)
The majority of EverQuest servers
are not PvP and are known as blue servers. When a character is created on these
servers their name is highlighted in blue and they cannot be attacked or harmed
by other players. If a player switches to red (by doing a small 'quest') they
can then attack other red players, but ONLY other red players. The rules are
slightly different on PvP designated servers, with some allowing combat between
all players, some between certain races, some between certain deities (religion)
etc.
How do I actually begin to attack something
in EverQuest?
You click on them, get close enough
to hit them with your melee weapons, then click the Auto Attack button on the
User Interface.
How do I know if I am doing or receiving
damage?
In a box on your User Interface you
will see the text:
"You hit monster for 5 points of
damage!"
If you are taking damage it will
say:
"Monster hits YOU for 10 points of
damage!"
In addition you will see an
animation and a sound will play (though it probably won't be every time) when
either party takes or attempts to inflict damage.
Can you really dual wield? (have a weapon in
each hand)
Yes, but only certain classes. Those
who can are Beastlords, Monks, Rangers, Rogues and Warriors.
Can you use any type of armour and any type
of weapon?
Each class is only permitted to use
certain weapons and armour. This usually results in some classes being unable to
equip certain types (for example chain mail and piercing weapons)
How many types of armour are there in
EverQuest?
Four main types which in order are:
Cloth, Leather, Chain and Plate. If you can wear
