Today I present to you my first Elf guest on Lady Lava's Questionnaire...The Famed Vester



You are the first Elven to be a guest on Lady Lava's Questionnaire.
What do you like the most about being an elf so far?

Night sight.... definatly night sight. I hate having to cast at the
most inopportune times, or making sure that I have jewelry or armor with that property. I also wanted the extra mana boost, very handy with my mage.



We met at the Brit Bank recently while you were selling Cu Sidhe's. How have sales been with these new creatures and what is your personal feelings about the Cu Sidhe?
Sales have been very good with the Cu Side, I usualy sell them for
anywhere from 50 - 100k, althogh I don't expect that to last much longer as the "newness" wears off. The coolest thing about these new mounts is the healing skill they have, to my knowledge they are the first creature to have this skill which allows them to heal themselves faster as well as to heal their owner. I haven't had one heal while I'm riding, so I dont think they do, But I'm wondering if they can rez their owners if their skill is high enough. Having a pet that could rez its owner is just about the coolest thing I can think of! I'm keeping my fingers crossed while I train it.

How hard are the Sidhes to tame and what taming skills are needed
to tame one?

Well I don't know for sure what skill is necessary to tame but I do
know that at 101 taming they hardly ever listen to your commands. I'm guessing that they have a min taming at around 106 like a fire steed but it may be higher. Cu Sidhes have the same anger response as a dragon, but they don't attack if you have positive karma unless you anger it. If a Cu Sidhe hits you it hits HARD 2 hits and your dead, plus it uses the bleed attack so sometimes it can be one hit and your seeing grey. I have 115 lore and 115 taming(with jewelry) plus 103 peace. Taming by myself can be slow taking up to five minutes but I have a friend with legendary peacing and we can tame most in about a minute.

What do you like the most about this new expansion ML?
Well I think EA outdid themselves on this expansion. I like the fact that you can get better items, easier balanced with a lot more quests and spawn that is a lot tougher. Take the spawn in the twisted weal where the Cu Sidhes spawn, changelings are like mean fairies on testoserone.

How many Elf characters do you have?
Two: a Tamer/Peacer and a Necro.

You were the one that informed me that by wearing the "Pads of the Cu Sidhe" (special boots) that humans can ride them and I thank you for that information and the Cu Sidhe.Do you like the concept of these boots or do you think only Elves should be able to ride them?
I really don't like the racism at EA(joke) No I dont like the idea that only certain races can use certain items, it can be very irritating to get a really nice wep that you cant use on certain characters.



What do you think of the design of the new Elven City?
Well, it's not my favorite. My biggest gripe is that you can't recall out off it, I understand that it makes the new dungeons harde, but whats the point of not being able to recall away from the city?

Have you been doing any of the Quests and if so which ones?
Obviously I've done the elf quest twice, I've also done a lot of the
smaller quests but I have yet to finish one of the new quests that require you to kill a Boss like the Dread Horn or the Simmering Effusion.

What is your favorite color in the realm?
I've always been partial to ice white simple, distinguished, not to
flashy.

What is your favorite color in real life?
Mostly I like dark colors like blue and purple, kinda ironic huh.

If Elves existed in real life would you like to be one?
Gotta have the pointy ears... definately!

What was the last book you read?
Im reading Tanequil by Terry Brooks. (latest in the Shannara series)

What was the last movie you saw?
Sahara

What is your favorite junk food?
Reeses Peanutbutter cups - I could eat them for ages.

What is your motto?
Respect- Do unto others that sort of thing, unless your in Fel then be a jerk. :-]


Thank you for your time and giving us an elves viewpoint.
Keep those ears pointed to the skies.
