Default Alcohol...

Just wondering if Alcohol actually has a use in game or what??? Why do I have a stat bar for it...it's really pissing me off because I'm 70 and I have this empty stat bar that I want to fill up, just because, but I don't want to sit and look at a blurry screen for 36 hrs to do it. Is there anyone that has a maxed out alcohal tolerance?

A few of my guildies do. But that was after the Brell quest where you could have your own keg in your house.

I'm not sure it really does anything, except take a few EQ1 Converts back to the old days of looking at the game through "Matrix" glasses.

It only takes about an hour if you spam use about 100 stacks of the expensive alcohol. Plus, the blur doesn't affect your bags, so it's not even that big a deal.

There is (or was anyway) a bug/feature with being drunk, drunkedness(tm) actually counts as a beneficial spell so it will trigger things like the godking staff and other similar items.

I'm not sure if this is a bug or if its meant to be like that or maybe its already been fixed since I'm no longer playing.

Some of the guides ran a drunken run through an aggro zone. I think a high alcohol tolerance might have hurt you since you were required to be very drunk during the whole race...

wernt there mobs in EQ1 that part of there AE was to make you drunk? and a high tolerance could prevent/diminish the effect? I thought there was but maybe I'm mistaken...been a long time since eq1..

Reguardless there should be mobs like that in Eq2! it would be interesting. Then again it would require raiders to drink and someone would get 'offended' and there feelings hurt or some bullshit.

I dunno if this is a bug or not but if you switch your vision to ultravision or sonic vision the "blurry" effects go away and your left with the normal ultra/sonic vision. Its odd, I didn't report it cause honestly don't see what benefit it has other than not giving yourself a seizure from trying to look at your screen.

Hope that helps... if your able to switch to one of those visions. Good luck
