    EQ TLP - Mischief (Free Trade / Random Loot)

    Bards are retarded good in TBS. It must be a bug but the 71 self buff in TBS makes em max hit everything.

    EVE Online

    Personally feel citadels/fozzie sov/excessive jump fatigue/cap and super rebalance killed the game. Eve in dominion era. Think 2010 to 2016 was the greatest MMORPG experience since EQ in 99.... RIP Black Legion and Tishu, amazing groups in their prime and frankly BL was likely the greatest...

    EQ TLP - Vaniki (Level-Locked Progression)

    I main a cleric on Aradune. Ranger is my 2 box. Granted he's probably more geared closer to your avg raid main on server with 2.5, Mayong hammer. Mix of cultural last blood and tss armor. I've never had an issue tanking/duong group content with him since. GoD. Even just cleric + ranger I can...

    Everquest TLP - Aradune and Rizlona Servers (Now with real customer service)

    TSS Starts opens in under 2 weeks now! Great time to join or come back to Aradune! You get tons of Autogrant (Like 600 when there is like maybe at 1200 at best) and I know some of our members were getting 70 in 9hrs played even before the XP bonus. Not hard to get geared up fast either. Thats...

    Everquest TLP - Aradune and Rizlona Servers (Now with real customer service)

    Psyched for OOW launch today! Race gonna be fun. Hopefully with no DBG curveball even if the servers going down did make GoD more exciting. The whole 24 man anguish been fun in practice so far. GoD was an excellent xpac... I never lacked for things to do like PoP. Or felt the raids were...

    Everquest TLP - Aradune and Rizlona Servers (Now with real customer service)

    That sudden "SERVERS COMING DOWN ANY MINUTE FOR EMERGENCY PATCH" Message sure made the GoD race interesting. We had just started Uuoqa, in the gas chamber and had to decide if we wanted to risk it after being told there would be no countdown/warning. Basically, if we beat a boss but failed to...

    Everquest TLP - Aradune and Rizlona Servers (Now with real customer service)

    We thought that. Im sure it will be true eventually. But right now all the people joining in the last month are legit newbros. Its possible i think the very high number of real players and lack of box army will actually help Aradune,? Contamination did break up. But we did not recruit any of...

    Everquest TLP - Aradune and Rizlona Servers (Now with real customer service)

    Gotta say i was worried about population. But right now we actually have more lon raids then before new server launched. Odd thing pis we got more new player recruits in the last month then any time before that. Maybe people who came for mischief but didnt like the ruleset? Idk. I dunno how...

    Everquest TLP - Aradune and Rizlona Servers (Now with real customer service)

    I joined Aradune in kunark. So i missed the botched launch. But my impression was you had player numbers drop off late kun + after about a month in vel. Bc there is little to do besides raiding and most groupable gear was becoming near worthless for the latter and the former was suffering...

    EQ TLP - Mischief (Free Trade / Random Loot)

    Of course the free loot server is doing well right out of the gate. The fast unlocks for kun and vel will keep it alive for way longer then if 3 months.. but its going to be dead in 6 to 8 months best case.... Even the most casual will be turned off by a server where loot is virtually...

    EQ TLP - Mischief (Free Trade / Random Loot)

    The loot situation is kinda neat in a way. But its hard to not see this turning into a situation where the end result is loot is so volumus to the point everything except bis gear becomes worthless at a blindingly fast rate. I made a necro and mage. But i feel like i really need people to...

    EQ TLP - Mischief (Free Trade / Random Loot)

    What time is the launch? Midnight pst? Gonna make a necro as i mostly want to just farm kr then maybe take it seriously at about PoP. Could use a group to level with..

    Everquest TLP - Aradune and Rizlona Servers (Now with real customer service)

    All this drama is amusing but i think there's been this slightly unrealistic picture painted of Aradune based on it. I've actually had a pretty good time on on the server and from what i've seen so have the vast majority of people not involved in pushing for server firsts. Not that there's...
