The rat race in EQ2 was fun because being a Rat Bruiser was like being Splinter.
Rat city where you can only get in there if you're a rat or shrunken would be awesome. If it connected to every major city sewer in the game, even better
Edit: and that's another damn thing. Sewers, docks and all kinds of ways through cities for evil races (or good races in evil cities) to have to work through for traveling. Bring shit like that back.
Absolutely. I always wanted some sort of underdark. Huge cities completely underground, connected via old lave tubes, or tunnels. Deep below allthe surface dwellers, but in a few select areas like LGuk, you could enter. Old cities with many levels of old ruins and sewers could have entrances as well. I remember when AD&D Forgotten Realms was first released in the 80's, geeking out over Waterdeep, and the whole world underneath in the sewers.
EQ Qeynos Sewers are still one of my favorite areas, EQ2 the sewers under both Qeynos and Freeport were great.
and it was a pretty damn good and difficult expansion.The EQ Underfoot expansion had some zones that were pretty cool and a lot like what you're describing.
They want at least a year of testing. I'm not sure if that means all testing or beta testing specifically. Either way, I'd guess launch no earlier than Q4 2018. My personal guess would be 2019 though. Hard to predict because the rate of development in a project like this has and will continue to fluctuate based on funding. They recently secured "series A" funding and are hiring new people. That might speed up the pace.so I've had a casual interest in this thread for a while and I take it the shitposting is because there's little else to talk about? How far are they from dropping a product, months or years? I just want some fun PvE experience without large raid groups :/
I was pretty immature. About half were for vulgarity in chat and the other half were for training or exploits. One time I spelled out cunt in dead bodies in East Commons. I was one of those people with a video card that allowed them to clip through the wall in Velk's to get to Velketor himself (apparently not everyone could do this) and I would train him to the zone in. That was the highlight.
I mained a Vah as well. BST.
I was also banned a number of times. Once they ported me inside a room full of kitten walls and then deactivated my account for a week.
It was mostly training and MQ bullshit. Pulling the alligator to the entrance of PoE, pulling all the giants in BoT when they couldn't take the portals so they'd run around the zone, training Tallon Zek on a Vallon Zek raid, etc.
I was like 13 at the release of PoP so... yeah, I was a devious little asshole. Also proceeded to delete hundreds of DKP on Nightraid's website when someone fucked up and gave me admin access.
I also played a high elf mage and did the same shit on him. There was a level 20-30 tournament going in Freeport arena, winner got something like 5k plat. Cute little event. I went in and AE'd everyone to death and then proceeded to kill any high levels who tried to protect them. Eventually GM came and banned me for a week.
So I don't think Vah Shir mattered. More... I was a dickhead. The only reason I wasn't an Ogre, Troll, or Iksar was the exp penalty and my friends told me not to do it. Plus Luclin exp (Paludal Caverns) was pretty insane.
Thank you both for completely validating my statements about vah shir. I rest my case.
Vah Shir is like catnip for dickheads and incompetent players. That is the point.I also played a high elf mage and did the same shit on him.... So I don't think Vah Shir mattered. More... I was a dickhead.
