Da trolls get EVICTED!!!

Animalor · Post by **Animalor** » February 7, 2003, 3:19 am

In a bold andsurprising move by SoE, They ran an event tonight that basically had the new Froglok army pour out of Guk and invade Grobb. Trolls have been evicted and the town is now called Gukta.

Newbie trolls will now appear in Neriak in the Foreign Quarters.

Millie · Post by **Millie** » February 7, 2003, 3:38 am

I heard about this, and I think it's incredibly fucking stupid. It wouldn't be altogether very hard for SoE just to design a new city zone, connected to Innothule, where the Frogloks could start off. Instead, they took the lazy route and just reused Grobb as Gukta. Way to go.

Beside the point: Why the hell would a city full of large, burly trolls get overrun by a bunch of frogs? I thought the French always lost their wars.

LOL, and I was just there earlier today to see what they patched. Ran around for a while, saw nothing, and left. Wish I would have know that that would be the last time I'd ever see my home city

.

Before the patch, I was ally to frogs. After patch, I was warmly. I wonder what I con to them now.

Brittney · Post by **Brittney** » February 7, 2003, 8:05 am

HAHAHA Fuck ya! Alls I got to say is its about fuckin time! Frogloks >>> Trolls. It was a work of art watching the Mith Marr Blessed Frogloks completely obliterate the Trolls and seeing the Trolls running like lil bitches from their homes. I can’t wait till I can make my own Froglok, this was truly a great day in EQ history.

They should have made it the fort in guk top, that would have been a cooler starting city.

kinda weak they couldnt make froglocks have their own city zone and had to just reuse an old one

Midnyte_Ragebringer · February 7, 2003, 10:18 am

Awesome pic Jice, lol.

Aabidano · Post by **Aabidano** » February 7, 2003, 10:19 am

I'd rather have an extra zone with "stuff" in it than another worthless city zone myself. Neriak is a much more useful zone than Grobb if you need to use old world cities IMO.

Anyone given thoughts to an all froglok guild name? You know it's coming

Canelek · Post by **Canelek** » February 7, 2003, 10:24 am

New zone would have been cool, but that is just too damn funny!

Kelshara · Post by **Kelshara** » February 7, 2003, 10:32 am

If I recall the EQ Lore correctly Guk was the original city of the Trolls until the Frogloks drove them out. Following this a Troll Shaman cast a curse on them which killed off a lot of people and one of their heroes which we now know as The Ghoul Lord (was known as Hoptor Thaggelum I believe). The Trolls then built Grobb.

It does make sense that this happened if they want to follow the history lines etc.

Cotto · Post by **Cotto** » February 7, 2003, 10:42 am

So basically. The Ghoul Lord be pissed then.

Kilmoll the Sexy · Post by **Kilmoll the Sexy** » February 7, 2003, 11:15 am

I think it is kind of good that they made an enormous change in the game with a storyline that changed the dynamics of the old world instead of just adding crap.

How is it stupid?
They took an aspect of the backstory and applied it in a very believable way. They also took two of the least used zones (who the fuck every goes to innothule or grobb?) in game and gave people a reason to go there. The cheapest and easiest way to create new content is to revamp old, unused content.

*shrug*
It makes sense to me, I wouldn't mind seeing more old, unused content revamped.

And like Voro, I'm gonna make a point of training every single fucking froglok player I see.

Well it's nice to see that SOE has brought back at least a little of the roleplaying back into the game. Most of it died out about 3 years ago when people got tired of hearing "ogre-speak".

Like those fucking retards who think that talking like jar jar binks is roleplaying an ogre?

Or think that saying 'mes tink dat Creed sux' is roleplaying.

I like how the only mobs for exp in the area close to grobb were froglock tads, froglocks, and guk...

Did they change all that? Or do newbie froglocks have to run several zones away for exp?

Because Innothule has Gators, Kobolds, Snakes, Skeletons, etc for newbies to kill.
The Froglok Tads are 1 type of mob in the zone... I'm sure they will be easily replaced with bats or someshit.
