Do you know what your Rangers friends skill is? Where and what he begged to
get the 7 plat? I would really be interested in this information. I have
recently hit skill 46 whoo hoo, and have results similar to John Kim's. I
was begging from the guards in Highkeep, ( near the zone ) :) Any
information would be really appreciated and helpfull to those of us
practicing the lost art :)
Thanks,
