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

    Yeah, but everyone who is interested in tracking times understands and accepts that. It’s a factor outside of our control but it’s still fun to push for time goals regardless and fun is what this is all about. Basically all speed run times will be beaten not just in EQ but in every game. I am...

    Its hard to put an exact number on it but it is definitely higher. Not a perfect comparison but I was server first 50 on Aradune and Agnarr and these screenshots show my /played the moment I dinged. Aradune - 38 hours 55 mins Agnarr - 58 hours 43 minutes.

    VP loot is good in the context of an EQ where each class has like 1-3 epics complete per server pre velious.

    ah, makes sense. How’s the grind going so far? I imagine we will see our first 60s on Aradune before the 24 hour post launch mark.

    Someone uploaded all the zones into unity and you can explore them noclip style. Nice to revisit lost areas (like OG tutorial) and also see out of bounds locations. Lguk has a ton of "trash" above the zone. http://www.ulftek.com/eqscout/

    EQ: Classless.

    When does 3.0 launch, and is PvP enabled?

    Yeah I used to use that in my pull messages back in the day when people actually used pull messages but for some reason I just went with the hard type.

    I wonder where Prathun is going now, maybe Holly hooked him up with a job over at Blizzard? It will be hard for DPG to replace someone w/ like 20 years of institutional knowledge and experience w/ EQ spaghetti code.

    I confirmed that Efreeti and Gobs > Hole (most camps). The only one I didn't test was undead which is apparently the best camp. So ymmv.

    It's really hard to convince your players that the smart long term move isn't actually "officer corruption". No matter how transparent you are you'll have to deal with salty man children crying tears on the forums about your guild eventually. I had some guy claim I was getting venmo'd cash from...

    The Paladin was a huge time investment, I have over 315 hours played on him (over 13 days!). I let chat vote and they chose SSF Hardcore Shaman for my next run but tbh I'd personally like to level a Rogue or Necromancer, the Rogue ideally just as a normal character not SSF.

    Yeah bro two big things I would do would be cast endure magic on myself before I pulled that Wizard and then if you look at the end I actually killed the wizard by using my IV hoop. If I had realized I did that before I ran out I could have just rooted the other ghoul and origin'd without dying...

    Bro this shit is so rare that people don't even believe me when I tell them about it. It happened to me in 2011 and I straight up saw him physically spawn, respawn the entire zone and then despawned himself leaving the rest up. He had a custom shout to go w/ it too. Man that's awesome. Do you...

    The next TLP servers will launch with a new premium feature "Functional server launch and zone times under 5 minutes each" * *Premium features only guaranteed between 10pm and 7am PST.

    Impossible. Envenomed bolt (I believe) does full damage for dps calculation purposes after just one tick of the dot. The only way to beat 2 Necs is to have 3 Necs.

    I haven't done Kunark since the ZEM change but it's basically always been Chardok kennels. I assume it still is.

    Something I have been wondering. There has been a level 27 solo Mage named Marv farming Raiders in South Karana near the NK zoneline for weeks. Every time I go there day or night he is there, still 27, still killing them on spawn. What’s the scoop, what is this Mage farming? Is this a plat farm...

    Despite the big zem Kedge loses to most other zones because mob throughput is so low. Density is poor and movement speed is awful which means pulls take longer. Alizewsaur is the main reason that Goblins win the exp race. It's better than SolB even if you have all of Efreeti and BnB. So from...

    Yeah I've logged and parsed all my runs. We were able to compare our leveling rate to our launch groups benchmarks throughout due to the logs. I didn't look at DPS too heavily this time but I can say that before the Enchanter nerf for instance a charm pet was as much or more dps than 4x...

    Group comp was full retard. 4x Mage, Cleric, Ench. We effortlessly rolled through 1-34 but getting into Solb we had to start dealing with piles of level 50 Necromancers camping Kobolds and Efreeti. Once we got to 45 and went to OOT goblins it was smooth again. We were doing sub 1 hour levels...

    Totally fresh like the server just opened, no outside help etc. It's meant to emulate how you'd play and what you'd do if you were trying to get 50 as quickly as you can on a fresh server launch.

    I went to CT and pulled a blue mob to the zoneline solo. He was 3-4 levels below me and I used 100% of my mana and LoH and he was still healing when I had to zone out. Mobs like that heal through the walls all over the zone.
