    EQemu - Nagafen's Lair (Reborn)

    There were other tricks we used before 3rd party programs were mainstream. We used SoE's own buggy code for tracking across zone in Kunark era. I remember using /guildinvite Trakanon_01 as a command. If it returned "player not found", he wasn't up. If it returned "You may only invite player...

    Just a word of warning: Avoid the EVGA 1080 FTW cards. I found out after it was too late and my card arrived. It started with micro pauses, then to this dreaded black screen issue that seems to be plaguing the FTW line of EVGA cards. DO NOT RECOMMEND! Read more here: GTX 1080/1000 (EVGA) Info...

    EQemu - Nagafen's Lair (Reborn)

    As someone who main played a War back in the day, it was one of the most difficult before SoE later made changes. Back in its original form the blade from Queen Chardok was not always dropped. Queen was arguably one of the tougher Kunark raids of the day. Super fast densely packed trash respawn...

    Wasn't meant as a dig at your server. In fact I said I was glad people had a place to continue NL. I quoted someone who said they wished more RR would come back, I simply said I had no interest in helping to lead or play. That was also based on the information I was given when you opened and...

    I finally broke down and started a 6 box. I play odd hours, so I like being self sufficient. That said, I can now help anyone and their alts with Epic 2.0s. I have 5 of 6 of my boxes with 2.0 now and plan on completing the last one tonight. In case you guys didn't know, there are NPCs in the...

    EQemu - Nagafen's Lair (Reborn)

    Nice to hear you guys found a hoe to continue Nagafen's Lair. I just can't come back and help lead RR guild, as I have 0 progression to make on the server. My SK / SHM had 2 of 4 EP gods dead, full EP armor (minus BP) on the SK, a Blade of War, and all the AA that were useful. The server has...

    Keep in mind, that mi-high level SoD zones are meant to mix in while raiding. Some of the T1 / T2 raid content is easier than SoD zones. Having a mix of better gear helps. Regarding Kithcor in particular, the big dangerous mob density is in the good and evil camps, which you can completely...

    Abacrone - Custom EQ

    The buff bot on NL was shit anyway. Level 65 and it would cast useless vision buffs, resist cold / resist fire instead of circle of seasons, etc. The cleric buff was from the level 40s. After Maze said he was willing to re-work it, I sent him a full list of buffs that were level appropriate as...

    My suggestion is to get your Blackburrow access. In Oceangreen Hills, go to the friendly gnoll camp to the South East. I think you only have to do the first quest and then he sends you to Blackburrow. I find that shards drop far more often and tons off of trash. Named are really tough though, so...

    Stormhaven - Kate's Hoof

    76 and 77 are doable with a merc for sure. Be warned that named will definitely be a ramp up in difficulty from anything prior! 78 is even more difficult and you might have to farm up some raid gear for it... or do like Funkey and just grind out trash mob shards. The way I see it, this server...

    Honestly, I have yet to "grind" any AA. I just hit 300 on my Rogue yesterday and it has all been from questing, raiding (in a group), and exploring. You will find the quests in SoD for level 75+ group content / augs / gear are pretty lengthy. You only gain level by questing in SoD, so your AA...

    Epic 2.0 is a quest that individual members must complete, but via raid content. Mithaniel Marr was a massive bottleneck because of his crazy high DPS, AE stun, and split at 50% into two mobs. Tank Mercs are vaporized instantly and I (playing a rogue) could only tank so much. Having a real...

    Oh, and a bit of a <Kate's Hoof> update: Thanks to Djevel leveling up his War to 75 and getting a beefy amount of defensive AAs, we were able to complete our first in-guild Mithaniel Marr kill last night! This enables the guild to complete epic 2.0s and a pretty big barrier in Raid T1!

    Didn't @Secrets say he was doing his own vision of a NL type server, then basically say he doesn't have time for it and won't be working on it? To my knowledge he isn't currently developing a new server, is he?

    There are reasons to selectively pick some questlines from one path and some from the other. Old path has some nice clickies like DE mask, unlimited shrink pot, and summon a banker bot, etc. New SoF has some awesome item slots. So, there's an argument to actually do a bit of both. However, you...

    Because you are comparing apples to oranges. VT is not part of the custom progression, Loping is the end zone of newer the custom 1-70 path. VT isn't meant to be high end raid gear. You can't compare old classic content vs the custom zones. It makes no sense.

    Grizzin (djinn on Discord) also has jewelcrafting high enough to make the components for this armor! Just send him a tell and he can sort you out too! You need the appropriate gems from the goblin camps is all. Don't burn yourself out doing tradeskills. It's totally unnecessary.

    EQemu - Nagafen's Lair (Reborn)

    The problem with NL server (picked up by Sailfish from the 9/5/16 backup) is that he has no active devs. Secrets originally tossed the idea around to pick it up, but ultimately said he doesn't have the time for it. Without a Dev, that roll back reversed a ton of tuning and script fixing from...

    Just curious what progression path you have taken? The 1-70 grind is what you make of it. The two paths exist as a means to an end. 1-70 (titanium) is older and will have more of a nostalgic feel with familiar old level paths and zones. 1-70 (SoF) is newer, far more custom and will leave you...

    No, he doesn't. That was the confusing part for me too! He must be up and standing in his cage. Opening the cell door will trigger the quest in your journal. Sometimes it's buggy, so opening and closing the door a few times will usually do the trick.

    Clan Hoof is where it's at @Hatorade. We have 20+ people in guild of varying playtimes. Some doing the slow grind through progression, others forging through the early raid content already. It is similar to NL for raid requirements in that 6 actual players seem to be able to complete most raid...

    I'd make sure the fans are operational. Far more likely to have a dead fan causing the overheating vs dust build up. Fire up the computer with the side panel removed and have a look around.

    Sounds like you have a local ISP connection issue. Hell, I am in the Middle East and get ~200-250ms ping. Not the server's fault.

    Mercs work up until TBS / SoD and turn basically useless with the difficulty increases. 6 boxing is fine if you want to do your own thing. Not necessary with the active people we have in guild currently.

    I think it's Bixie Hive place where you need to tradeskill Baking for questing that tier armor. OR, you can skip it by buying direct from the merchant but you need something like 1100 plat for it all. Also, getting Ally faction will only require 1 of each item vs multiple for a few slots like...
