I remember zoning in, and lagging to the huge pile of level 1 ogre corpses.

I have three Fear break stories.

One has to do with me losing Brudos and another has to do with a three-hour CR and the third I can't remember..

I hate EQ and I can't tell the stories.

my first fear break was the first one attempted after kunark came out, it was a horrible disater in which Mack lead a button of people who'd never been to fear. Lots of dying was involved, a couple people lost coropses, Z and a few NDS showed up but even they couldn't break it. In the end GMs were called in to save us all, because in one of the early mass rushes through the portal the zone crashed and that kinda screwed us from then on in...

I remember I was like 65 and I broke Fear solo trying to get an amy whip for my bard. I had to bring my mom and her enchanter for the temple because there were so many. I would train the shit out, she'd mez or root them, the evil eyes would diespell root and mez and then we killed them. Eventually they all died and no whip. (I later got the whip from another raid of nice people that were there.) A few weeks later, my mom needed Wraith of a Shissar to get her epic. We pulled the same strategy, except instead of killing everything, we gated back outside and came back in and it was right where we left it all alone. It died and she got her epic. (She then proceeded to throw it in HD's face that it only took her and her son and not a full raid force.)

I remember the entire zone being repopped on us. No one would flinch at that these days, but back then it pretty much sucked a*s.

Whenever anyone suggested PoFear I always had a very terse two-word response:

my favorite 'remember that time is fear...' consists of a few funnays!

losing fright or one of those to a weird pathing glitch and him picking us off one by one as we went looking for him and tried to pull him in a bit more to camp lol.

xammer losing cazic and the whole 'xammer lost the dragon' thing being rehashed hehe Laughing

xrells pony humping cazic in the tree for several minutes.

rokter getting the kill on cazic and the whole "LET THEM WEAKEN IT!" thing. that was the best day fear has ever seen!

I thought I would be cool and help someone get their body back in a full spawn on my necro. I zone in fine get to his body and /q out so I don't get deathtouched yet that shit still happens way up on the wall without having anything trying to kill me. End up having to break in with a group to get both our bodies back:( that shit wasn't fair.

I also recall training the entire temple on to our raid once. That shit was funny. Like fall out of your chair funny.
