Everything related to Agnarr!

[Swish]

From the Agnarr FAQ:

"Q: I Died But All of My Items Stayed With Me. Is This a Bug?

No, you no longer have to find your corpse in order to retrieve your items if you die. If you are level 6 or above, though, you did lose experience and you can be resurrected to restore a portion of that experience."

Curious changes indeed....

"I'm playing for nostalgia, what about you guys?"
"Yeah, nostalgia"

[AzzarTheGod]

No new servers allowed btw

sad but true. not without express permission, which is very unlikely to ever be granted.

You also don't have to re-mem spells upon death. I suggest if you go there you may want a small whip so you can self-flog yourself to counter-balance such time-saving unclassic implements.

[Seeatee]

I was really looking forward to this server but the zone changes are enough to keep me away, the commonlands, ro, oasis, and freeport all give me eyeball cancer of the utmost degree. not to mention the exp is going to be a lot faster etc etc.

dont let anyone shit you, this is NOT a classic experience, it is modern EQ that just limits what zones you can go to, now this is not necessarily a bad thing but it is a far cry from what P99 offers, even on the "true box " servers ive seen people with groups of 3 or 4 boxed mages just steam rolling shit which is also a pretty big turn off.

cause p99 is totes classic. i remember absolutely everyone back on live in the day farming snare hammers and lining up to fte race a mob for a set time engangement without anyone disturbing your attempt. open world raiding back in the day was totes a snowflake safe space where you simply petitioned and waited 3 weeks to see if you got loot

I assure you, at no point during the last thousand posts in the half dozen agnarr-related threads did *anyone* at *any* time make the claim agnarr was going to be a classic experience.

[Bubbles]

It's a solid way to punish Barbarian melee and any human who decides to start in Qeynos forever, too!

[Bubbles]

Well, both sides are pretty silly, since Agnarr would technically be 'p99 for people on live who want something closer to p99' more than something to actively replace p99.

So if the anti- crowd wants to make the argument that it doesn't belong on these forums, thats really valid. Since p99 would be a fairly dumb place to try and recruit from.

Then there are the true purists, the ones who only play p99 cuz Eqclassic.org isn't *cough* quite ready on the release date just yet. So even p99 is only classic from a certain point of view, too... if you really get down to the brass tax of it lol.

[HippoNipple]

brass tax

that brass tax is a killer for the tuba industry

[Valakut]

haven't been following the thread so apologies if it has already been answered but with pantheon rising on the horizon do people believe that this will be the last viable progression server until after pantheon stalls out?

Get your heirloom 40 slot 100% weight reduction bags now! Only 29.99! WOW WHAT A DEAL!

This is a question you should seriously ask yourself. Then follow it up with "Why am I such a fucking retard all the time?"

Report back with findings

B careful you dont hurt his fee fees or he will report you to the janitors again

Unlike Swish I'm not dumb enough to post words I know full-well will get me banned.

Unlike this guy I'm not permabanned. Weird huh?

I like that you're upset about getting banned on the forums of a server you haven't played on in ages. Sums you up quite nicely.

[Pokesan]

I didn't call him the word that perfectly describes him and I want to call him nearly every time he posts cause I know he'll report it and I'll eat a ban. Unlike Swish I'm not dumb enough to post words I know full-well will get me banned. I just get permabanned for bullshit that I never did.

still can't manage to find your marbles huh

[Swish]

That is weird. Out of the two of us only one has bold-faced knowingly broke the rules. Arguably only one of us has broken forum rules PERIOD (Hint: Not me) and yet somehow I'm the permabanned one.

Weird sums it up nicely.

Except you referenced an RMT website as if it was nothing. Minor detail you missed from your post.

Tsk :rolleyes:

[AzzarTheGod]

Smilin hard can't even front

[Swish]

Except I didn't and you have no proof whatsoever

You continue with the "banned for nothing, the mods hate me u guys" shit then lol, you dont just get your account turned off one day.

Funnily the post isnt there anymore because RMT isnt supported here. Do you need to be told that? lol

[Pokesan]

imagine getting dunked on by swish

[Fifield]

and yet it seems to be precisely what happened. Until I'm told otherwise (by someone that's not proven mentally retarded) that's all I can come up with. Going on 3 weeks of no reply from Sirken. I attempted to contact Rogean as well we'll see if anything comes of that.

You talked shit on the project for months and months. i think thats prob grounds for banning.

Everyone talks shit, just stops after a day or 2.

on a more positive note, agnarr soon, who wants to group with me druid!

Any suggestions on good UIs for progression live server? If not a full compiled UI are there any useful Addons people from P99 wouldn't be aware of.

[Spyder73]

Me and a couple buddies are gonna play. Talking about possibly starting a guild. 2 things I haven't done in EQ is lead/colead a guild and start from scratch with everyone at lvl 1. I guess I did that in classic but not since then. Gonna be interesting starting on a totally fresh server with all my eq knowledge/experience. I missed P99 launch and Phinny is the first TLP I played and didn't start there til late Kunark.

From your unstable posting history and propensity to spew homophobic slurs I would have pegged you for an "Everquest guild leader" already.

[Andos]

Stop being a homophobic slur

Kevin Pillar told me Spyder73 quick pitched him.

[Hibren]

on a more positive note, agnarr soon, who wants to group with me druid!

Whats your dumb druids name gonna be? I think I might go SK/Sham either troll or ogres. Haven't 100% decided yet.

Resolute is going to have a guild there thats just for fooling around on non raid days.

I'm coming for agnarr too!

How hard isit to run a De to qeynos?

super easy with the translocaters

[Seeatee]

I was thinking about this server some more, the single biggest problem is the kronos, everything cost kronos want a fungi? 1 kronos, cloak of flames? 5 kronos nothing is sold for plat either you buy kronos or farm money for them on a live server or you can't really buy much and IMHO that is a huge problem

[Metalopolis]

To be fair the mods can ban you for ANY reason, or even no reason at all.

I have an account that was banned, for nothing, as well. It even states "Reason for ban: none" lol. Of course my "WokenSleeperTroll" account was also banned; in this case for trolling!

Sounds like a poor person problem, you should probably work on that IRL and then come back to elf land.

[Swish]

Nope I don't remember and neither does anyone else but you. Because it didn't happen and your brain is broken.

Nope thats where you're wrong, you know what you did (so do I, so does the staff) but its funny watching this selective amnesia. Waiting for you to go full Kushie and be at the "fingers in your ears" stage of denying everything :D

[Swish]

Someone's mad their little tattle taling didn't accomplish what he thought it would.

Can't beat em in an argument, cry to the mods right Swish?

:D

That seems to be the strategy. Shit on all aspects of P99, cite RMT sites and then suddenly state he was unfairly treated and all the mods hate him. I'm getting a good laugh out of it at least,thanks for the entertainment :)

[Kagey]

Can we have a single p99 guild to all join and lay waste to all the openworld mobs.

[heyokah]

Send him the fucking link then swish. You are being a hall monitor and also a complete cunt by being cryptic about it. He mentioned RMT. Never linked one directly that i can find.

i love how this guy thinks his free speech was violated even tho he's here spamposting the very next day

Swish will most likely ignore this and continue to yammer nonsense. It's the Swish way and the reason he has so many fans.

[Swish]

Got prof?

Funnily your existence on the forums was deleted when your account was banned, you know this. I'm surprised this account hasn't been deleted for ban evasion honestly but I'm sure you're continuing to push buttons and it's coming :o

Also are you trying to hall monitor me? lol

This is RNF, it seems to thrive on what you're saying, but I consider myself a "no nonsense" poster. The guy referenced an RMT site and had all his posts deleted and account banned for it. Maybe if he's allowed to stay he can behave this time but it doesn't seem like he's doing very well, does it? :o

[Dillian]

What is the estimated population of phinnie? More than here?

Yes

[Swish]

Why does literally nobody else besides my #1 forum arch nemesis remember me breaking the rules? Kinda strange no?

Is that an admission of guilt? I think it might be. Shame there's no edit button here :o

Weird like 90% of the shit I've seen you post has been complete nonsense.

[Swish]

By a significant margin. Even after Phinny's supposed "death" according to Swish.

Well lets examine a predecessor to Phinny shall we?

Who here currently plays on Ragefire or Lockjaw? Probably nobody, maybe 1-2 people.

How about some actual stats from March last year? (https://forums.daybreakgames.com/eq/index.php?threads/lockjaw-server-population.231489/)

...................Phinny.......... Ragefire .......Lockjaw

Enchanter:. .176............... 50................. 38

Cleric: .........180............... 45................ 28

Shaman: .....131.............. 30................ 14

Warrior: ........92............... 16................ 17

Mage:........... 116............. 50................ 20


9pm PST on a Thursday.

From that, I think Phinny is going to sink. If not from Agnarr maybe from the TLP that follows it.

Look up Lockjaw and a lot of the players feel like they got screwed, and that's posts from a year or more ago. Think that can't happen on Phinny? Okay... lol.

Your statistics are missing key information. You're comparing true box servers to unlimited box server. This might work with people who have no idea what's going on. To the rest of us you're just a fool.

[Swish]

Actually that makes it even more telling... 28 clerics on Lockjaw on an unlimited box server. Maybe half of those are boxed I'm guessing. Ghost town confirmed.

I'm sure Daybreak still cares enough to promote it and keep it alive though? Well no, maybe not. The cash cow is whatever the current TLP is, the rest are left in the dust.

[Bruno]

I doubt I will be making it this go around. It's all out of my system after Phinny. I'm strictly a powergaming off-topic troll these days. Godspeed though. I expect frequent updates on BDA's progress.

[burkemi5]

Ha ha ha TLPs eventually become a ghost town so you're an idiot for ever playing on them at all despite having fun with the process. You instead need to play on p99 where you're locked at Velious forever. Am I doing it right?

What point is trying to be made from this? You play a server for 2 years and then it sucks and you play something else. If anyone is going into a new server hoping to invest 6+ years of their life and expecting a large population of nerds to admire their pixel accomplishments then fuck them.

Pantheon will probably hurt all EQ servers anyways.

[heyokah]

The point is that swish actually gets butthurt when other people enjoy EQ somewhere other than p99. It's very interesting behavior.

You mean legacy items and I think it's like week one and done but I could be wrong

I'm planning to play, but LOL at this bag you can but for $30.

https://www.everquest.com/expansion-content#progression

[zanderklocke]

Bag you can "buy"

[Fifield]

spent 16 dollars on bag when it was on sale, didnt ever regret it

[Swish]

If you want a guise get one early.

Just a heads up you've got about a year to enjoy it before you'll need to migrate with everyone else again <3

[Swish]

Pixelated items "on sale" - buy them before stocks run out guys.

[Swish]

That's right, because everyone trades in kronos instead of platinum...so classic and nostalgic :rolleyes:

I find it strange people go into a new server knowing the population is going to bottom out within a year after another one inevitably launches....and lose all the progress they made on their character(s).

The endgame was only toxic to you because your guild was bad and couldn't ringfence guaranteed pixels in Velious. I'm surprised you're still mad and vocal about that.

[arsenalpow]

Newsflash idiot. Some people play EQ and don't care about nostalgia or classic. They also probably feel lots of nostalgia regardless of certain elements not being EXACTLY as they were. They also don't care about playing the same character for a decade. They just want to enjoy EQ with some of their pals without a bunch of toxic bullshit preventing them from experiencing content. MOST of them (myself included) don't give 2 shits if theres xp pots on the cash shop. Nor do they care if the server dies in a year (It won't). They also don't give a flying fuck about kronos/RMT. If people actually gave a fuck about any of these things they wouldn't flock to TLP's in massive numbers every time they come out. There wouldn't be demand and requests for new TLP's all the time. Time to come face to face with the facts retard. Nobody cares.

Know what they do care about? Being able to experience the endgame content and acquire endgame pixels without shitting into socks for 16 hours straight every week for the rest of their lives. This isn't hard to understand. Why don't you get it?

I read your post and I agree with your point of not everyone sharing the same reasons as to why they play Everquest.

Swish is trolling, it's the only logical explanation behind his attacks on Agnarr.

You'd think he had some personal loss incurred by others simply trying Agnarr the way he fervently attacks it.

Who wants to play velious for the next 2 years while we wait for Pantheon? I dont.

P99 isnt the be all and end all of EverQuest experiences/communities.

For example: EQMac shat all over P99 as a game and community.

Zones I want to explore but never got to:

1. Vex Thal
2. Kill Rathe Council
3. Plane of Time
4. Get a Max AA toon in PoP era
5. Play Beastlords again
6. Be able to 2 box (2 toons only)
7. Have a community of non-neckbeards with high levels of autism.
8. Play a game that excludes people who cabt afford 14.99 a month.
9. Play Everquest with AAs again
10. Be able to raid at set times in a guild.

[Beastagoog]

Considering it will take 18 months for all xpacs to be released I would say the server has 2 years life span before a steady decline.

Suits me. Pantheon will be out by then.

Hope y'all enjoy your 900th Halls of Testings raid.

Never got to see Vex Thal and never played a beastlord. Want to do both and many other things that P99 can't provide.

This doesn't mean I dislike P99, just means the scope of things I like EQ related are not limited to what P99 offers.

P99 is awesome and I am sure to continue playing it, just not solely as it stands now.

There's this place called TAK Project, it's away from all the cash shop nasties. I'd sooner play there if I wanted to roll a beastlord, but probably boxers everywhere there too like Agnarr :o

I have tried but all thats left of the EQMac community are the stale old fucks that turn their nose up at everything. It's way to cliche on takp.

Most of the original eqmac community has retired because many of them invested huge chunks of time over 10 years to get their toons/boxes to where they wanted them and dont want to reinvest that time again. Some of them truely had BiS toons that they casually raided over the years.

O.G. EQMac commhnity was by large a time snap of the o.g. eq community prior to the 1337 crew, immaturity, lolz bebob players of the post 2001 stage of eq.

Takp is a shell of the eqmac community and for a large part the worse parts.

Interesting. It would appear some fundemental generation communication thing happened around 2001 that made everyone retarded. Only these weird retro gaming projects like p99 have a mature community around them these days. Everything else is basically akin to 15 year old nerd rage and 1337 s34k

[Bruno]

Are you saying you're now involved in RMT?

[NachtMystium]

I used to really dislike Swish, but I can't help but agree on the more purist take on classic EQ and this Freezi guy who has MAJOR berg outs if you criticize anything Agnarr... laughable to say the least.

I'll tell you just like I keep telling everyone else who keeps posting Agnarr bullshit here(it's all you see in the forums lately) just leave the p99 forums and go to agnarr forums if you hate p99 so much.

I went and leveled my bard in a sick ass guild group in nagafens lair for a few hours, then I went to EC and gave some noobs some plat and gear that was taking up space in my bank... then I joined in on a conversation about football in Butcherblock while waiting for the boat, then I logged on my main and killed King Tormax, then I fell asleep.

Yesterday was a good EQ day... And all the previous days I played were along the same lines. You sir, are a salty moron who needs to go and be with their guild instead of criticizing a community who has had more than enough of your useless banter. Just because you had a bad experience endgame, doesn't mean everyone else did... Maybe you should have joined a guild worth a damn.

[Valura]

Oh right I forgot. BDA was the only guild that thinks P99 raiding is toxic. There's totally not posts all over EQ forums/Reddit/Agnarr forums talking about how toxic P99 is.

http://i.imgur.com/TjGyJgP.gif

Newsflash idiot. Some people play EQ and don't care about nostalgia or classic. They also probably feel lots of nostalgia regardless of certain elements not being EXACTLY as they were. They also don't care about playing the same character for a decade. They just want to enjoy EQ with some of their pals without a bunch of toxic bullshit preventing them from experiencing content. MOST of them (myself included) don't give 2 shits if theres xp pots on the cash shop. Nor do they care if the server dies in a year (It won't). They also don't give a flying fuck about kronos/RMT. If people actually gave a fuck about any of these things they wouldn't flock to TLP's in massive numbers every time they come out. There wouldn't be demand and requests for new TLP's all the time. Time to come face to face with the facts retard. Nobody cares.

If p99 released a brand new fresh server on blue. Hell yea I'd play p99 more often. If they made a p99 teams server, I would never touch live until it ran it course after a couple of years. But since neither of those are going to happen, I'm going where it is happening, Even if I have to deal with the knowledge that 40 slot 100% WR bags exist.

This is pretty much how I feel about it. There's things I don't like about P99, and there's things I don't like about Agnarr. Both offer good things the other doesn't.

I wish there was an option from P99 other than Blue, and a dead Red server. There isn't.

Many people will try Agnarr just for this reason IMO. It's not that people hate one or the other, as some of these guys seem to express themselves.

Really it's like arguing what color is better. It's purely subjective and a matter of opinion.

Problem is people always have to prove they are right to others, and not just agree to disagree.

I will try Agnarr, and I will still play P99. Shitty raid situation or not on p99, and shitty 100% 40 slot bag or not on Agnarr.

See you nerds on Agnarr AND p99. :p

[Lhancelot]

Here is a complete rundown of what a TLP server is, and the differences between it and a full/partial classic server like P99.

This compiled info was put together by <The Mystic Order> and is very well done, and organized.

It answers many questions many P99ers might have about Agnarr and the differences between it and P99.

See you on Agnarr.

[Papa]

the thing is, the shitty parts of P99 (toxic community, terrible raid scene) are unavoidable and will affect you if you want to ever play past level 59

the shitty parts of TLP servers (krono? 40slot bags?) are completely ignorable and have no affect on your enjoyment of the game

Yeah that's what is frustrating about P99 tbh. It is so fun leveling alts etc., but as soon as you touch the point of needing to raid to improve your gears, it starts getting dirty.

I literally feel dirty raiding on P99, from some (probably a minority) players that can't help their greediness for raid pixels, to how the raid guilds interact with one another and talk shit behind eachother's backs, it's just bad.

I have learned not all raiders are greedy neckbeards out to fuck the other guy over.

However that being said, there's a small minority of extremely greedy neckbeards in raid guilds and they truly ruin it for anyone entering the raid scene thinking that everyone is there for a common goal which is to help one another progress and have fun doing it with one another.

Maybe that's being idealistic to a fault, expecting guilds to be full of tight knit players trying to advance eachother and not just themselves, I don't know.

All I do know is if you choose to raid on P99 you really have to be able to overlook and swallow a lot of bullshit.

Just my opinion.

How long does it take to level on these live servers like agnarr nowdays? Anything like p99?

[welly321]

[JurisDictum]

Nah, there is a flat exp bonus, no hell levels, a big group exp bonus, and everyone is stronger than classic. But its not like it takes no effort.

[Lhancelot]

Yeah, this info is useful it can help you determine if you want to try it or not also.

[Man0warr]

How long does it take to level on these live servers like agnarr nowdays? Anything like p99?

Phinigel solo exp is abysmal, maybe slightly better than P99. It's a got a big group bonus though so it's really the only way to level. So much that people boxing 2-3 characters will invite randoms just for extra exp.

Ragefire/Lockjaw and the new Agnarr server are much faster exp. It should take as little as 3 days for someone to hit 50.

[Sadiki]

Is that just someone not sleeping and trying to be the first 50, or is exp actually that fast? What's the expectation for someone playing more casually?

[Daldaen]

Look forward to seeing all you casual players on Agnarr tomorrow. In a few weeks you probably will be able to instance Nagafen and Vox and CT and Inny and Phinigel at scheduled raid times like normal human beings playing MMOs. Throw away your batphone nerd chains and embrace KronoQuest.

Forgive me, Swish, but I actually think I might get my desktops set up to mess around on Agnarr tomorrow.

Something about starting new and AAs and a couple xpacs that I never got to see much of but that still were old-school is luring me in more than the hideous hybrid of modern-day EQ graphics/mechanics/cash shop with old EQ zones/levels is scaring me away.

I shouldn't even try it, since the things I'm interested in are literally a year away from tomorrow's launch. But... shut up and take my money, I guess.

[Phistt]

Casual normal bros rollin up on Agnarr -- Enchanter -- cleric so far holla at me for freelo xp

[Tecmos Deception]

Am I terribly far off the mark in thinking that Agnarr will be like learning an entirely new MMO? There's themes to the classes and zones that haven't changed much compared to live (or p99, I guess)... but all the influences that the years of live expansions and tweaks have had that don't get removed for the TLP alter things so much that the way solo/groups/raids and classes and abilities actually play out in game is nearly unrecognizable?

Only person not allowed is Swish. Will obviously be focused on leveling and shit for the first little while. Eventually raiding somewhere between casual and hardcore. Prolly only a couple nights a week but take it seriously when its raid time.

PM me for more deets

So because you're a warmbody leech in a guild that does all your 16 hr shitsocking for you that means P99 raiding is good?

Got it

I like that an ex-BDA member is accusing people of "warmbody" status, entertaining double standard there :D

[Swish]

I like that you think BDA ever had more warmbodies than TMO/IB/Rampage/Forsaken/A/A/Whatever all those people call themselves these days. It's cute. I don't remember ever breaking 70 raiders my entire time in BDA on P99. Other guilds/alliances were almost always 100+ for major targets.

You must have missed the end of window R-FFA Trakanon, more like 85-90. Downed it in 5ish seconds of engaging. 85-90 and you call someone else a warmbody :rolleyes:

How many people does it take to do Trakanon?

Swish's mental illness and trolling aside, BDA had far more lax recruitment and performance standards for the vast majority of P99's timeline than TMO/IB/etc

Granted I wasn't around for the LAUNCH of Velious, so sure, MAYBE BDA was pulling 80s or 90s for a few weeks post-launch but that didn't last very long.

[Bubbles]

Even buying directly from daybreak it was 38 bux for 3 months and the ratio got down to 10-1 the closer you got to a year.

Coincidentally SolB is the place I ran into the toxicity of Aftermath on the server in full force. Never would have thought 6-7 years into a server you'd run into people training through lava tunnels to kill groups working their way towards freeti or pulling from 3-4 camps (not all of which were open) while non-twinks were trying to level in the zone.

While I'm sure things of this nature will happen on Agnarr, at least the people getting boned won't have to worry about getting lawyerquested because the other group was running fraps for a simple leveling group.

This is why p99 is somewhat of a joke unless you're a neckbeard.

People can claim ownership of rhe server due to their vast amounts of time they sink in to it and consequently can block the average user from content/xp camps.

Never in the history of eq servers has (amount of available of time to invest) = (superiority) other than on these servers.

Anyone joining them thinking they are going to achieve anything mildly out of the ordinary is kiddijf themselves.

[Andos]

There are more neckbeards on new TLP Servers then any other server ever.

The amount of hours people will put in at release and expansion unlocks to race through content as fast as possible is disturbing and sad, you should fit in well.

Man if only there was a way to avoid dealing with them like multiple instances of the same zone or something...

[Beastagoog]

I remember on my old server Xev guilds used to amicably work out dragons, and woukd would kill what... there was only 2 guilds that had a remote chance of killing the current content so for most guilds even in to luclin era killing Talendor, Trak etc was high on the list of achievements.

On p99 if you aint a neckbeard your chances of driving your dagger in to Talendors heart is very, very, very slim.

Bristlebane was about the same, once Velious came out Kunark dragons were regularly left along for up to a day or two, same with Naggy/Vox. Once Luclin came out ToV was the same way.

[Swish]

Just recently, half a year ago, totally the same thing rite gize? Rite?

But it's cute you're white knighting the loudest loser on these boards. Maybe he'll let you join his guild! He has everything you want in a guild leader - bawls and quits when he doesn't get the loot he wants, talks big about years on a server and jumps the second another one opens, and constantly talks about shit he doesn't know a fucking thing about, like mouse scrolling on PoP emus. Fuckin Tigole territory there, no doubt! Apply now, only one krono to join!

I hope Swish gets him banned again just as Agnarr launches. I would laugh so hard.

Technically he's evading a forum ban by making another account, which is bannable.

You know what? It's okay. It's okay to give it a try, because it's a sign that an 18 year old MMORPG is still relevant (despite some really shitty cash shop/out of era/badly tuned things going on.

I'd even suggest to people on the fence that they should watch a stream of Agnarr on Twitch. I did that for Phinny via Burrito and I have to say if I wasn't put off before I was certainly not starting after that based on what I saw happening. Mage pets were badly tuned and OP at the time, in fact all classes were doing things they shouldn't have been...wizards aren't supposed to crit in vanilla for example.

Daybreak don't want to put the time in to reset EQ more towards that classic feel, and that's what's frustrating. If Daybreak took over hosting P99 and said we'd have more servers, I think I'd be happy about it. But they're continuing on with things that shouldn't be in the game, there's a cash shop, there's instancing before there should be instancing, and there's a new currency that has no place in Norrath.

But despite all that, see how you go...have a look. I know I'm gonna be right here on P99 just waiting for the bombshell that there's another server coming so everyone needs to jump ship again.

I think a lot of people will sub 1 month and quit, which is still extra money potentially for EQ and a chance that the latest expansion live server players play isn't the last one.

Does anyone know if the XP rate on the live servers (Tunare etc) is slower? If P99 ever shut down that might be where I'd look, despite all the crazy UI shit and pages of commands/macros that seem to be going on.

Coming from someone in harmonium during kunark, this is false. There were races to everything relevant just about minus VP. Going further into luclin and pop there were only 2 guilds doing it because they cock blocked flagging and keys to keep the monopoly. Which didn't end until they got time flagged and were back to fighting each other for time.

Right now on p99 there are 2 top guilds doing the current content, and they are working it out amicably between themselves. The problem is there won't be luclin or PoP which I when people were actually forced to focus on single toons due to the addition of flagging and AAs. For p99 to go to luclin it would aliviate so much of the top end problems, alt armies wouldn't be nearly as useful, people would have to focus on single characters, and the keying alone would take ages here. However that appears to be irrelevant since luclin isn't coming.

Which means right now you have 2 top guilds fighting for vious and everyone else trying to pick up the scraps. Classic as fuck

[Sadiki]

I'm not sure if you really need to focus on one character to be able to beat raid content. Just pick up the vital stuff and then play your alt. Plus Luclin didn't really have a lot of the overpowered stuff PoP added.

Anyhow, P99 would totally find a way to screw up anything added without fail. This I am sure of.

The problem is there won't be luclin or PoP which I when people were actually forced to focus on single toons due to the addition of flagging and AAs. For p99 to go to luclin it would aliviate so much of the top end problems, alt armies wouldn't be nearly as useful, people would have to focus on single characters, and the keying alone would take ages here. However that appears to be irrelevant since luclin isn't coming.

Which means right now you have 2 top guilds fighting for vious and everyone else trying to pick up the scraps. Classic as fuck

There are waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay more neckbeard/no-lifers on p99 than any live server ever had. Most live servers only had a few raiding guilds and the pop on live servers during classic era/s was higher than p99. 2x as much infact on the populated server.

P99 is a distilled list of neckbeards from various live servers, this is why you have footraces after 16 hour variance camping with skype streams.

Grey Council was the elite guild on Xev server and they were the holymen, then guys that never logged out. On p99 there's atleast 10 guilds that would compete for the time Grey Council committed to raiding.

-- I don't think you're memory servers you will tbh.

AV and harmonium were the top 2 during kunark into velious. GC was around but i wouldn't call them the elite guild. By the end of PoP there were what 8-10 guilds flagged for the elemental planes? You had guilds like DP and QS fighting for NToV while guilds like AV would 5man doze and keep the emp in ssra on lock. I mean shit, it wasn't until QS transferred to Xev with their sleepers keys, that the sleeper even got awakened since AV had the monopoly on keys all the way into the end of Luclin.

Its the same as it is here, you have two guilds willing to put in the time and you have a lot of other guilds who aren't. The difference being is there wont be new content here to take the time of those top 2. I don't remember the population on xev ever being 3,000 people during prime time, maybe during content releases.

[Maner]

I'm not sure if you really need to focus on one character to be able to beat raid content. Just pick up the vital stuff and then play your alt. Plus Luclin didn't really have a lot of the overpowered stuff PoP added.

Anyhow, P99 would totally find a way to screw up anything added without fail. This I am sure of.

Ssra and VT drops blew everything from ToV out of the water. The same way the at velious gear makes Kunark content a lot easier, luclin would make the velious content that much easier. You basically go from 50-75hp items for every slot to 100hp items for every slot.

[Sadiki]

Oh, I meant AAs since that was the topic. Yeah, VT drops are absurd though.

[Gimp]

this release is going quite swimmingly

Looks like they brought the ENTIRE login system down. Right now the game won't even launch you simply get a Timeout Error on the main splash screen (before you even enter your UN/PW).

Word is people are duping the RIDICULOUSLY PRICED $30 40-slot bags AND Krono. Hey Daybreak, maybe if you weren't charging $30 for a fucking DIGITAL BAG people would have actually bought them instead of stealing them

Regular digital-fucking-Prada over here, eh?

So Phinny's launch was like this as well? (apparently it wasnt)

Many game launches have been like this. You just aren't accustomed to the effects of high pop since you're used to being on red99.

I don't think you are accustomed to the effects of a high pop since you are referring to EQ, and even a TLP isn't going to be high pop when compared to today's MMO standards.

As much as I think Swish is a incel-cuck - I am enjoying this one with him. Launch is a sh!tfest. Was going to check it out but im not waiting in an hour que, will wait to see if it smooths out over the weekend

[Spyder73]

Also - played P99 all evening - new druid is level 22 and made his way to Highkeep just now - classic is feeling good

[Sadre Spinegnawer]

I'm in, and already got a phone call from the Queen asking if I am starting a guild or not. I told her not now, but keep me informed if anything is up. Prince Harry might start one tomorrow, and he relayed to me he would be honored to have me join. Sent a message back to him I'm gonna chill before I make any commitments. He understood. Gotta stay loose sometimes.

[Beastagoog]

Server had login issues for like 4-5 hrs. Chill people.

Was literally the entire emulated pop red+blue in freeport when i logged on

I'd estimate they were capping the server at 8-10k pop range before que's started. A problem p99 will never, ever have.

Ding 5 and 5 on my boxes and I casually played.

Something about Agnarr, something about Phinny, something about DBG, something about BDA lol.... yeah that'll do it


Fixed that for you.

[Tecmos Deception]

Well my time on agnarr was short. I realized that even though I would have some fun there with the different mechanics and extra xpacs and groups actually being worth my time for XP purposes... nah.

In the end it will be all focused on raids raids raids, and alts grinding to max asap to do raids raids raids. Scheduled raids times, not finding a guild that I can tolerate spending schedule raid times with, etc.

EQ glory days to me were classic and kunark (and a but of velious) when the fun was in the slow, varied, dynamic leveling experience... whether solo or grouped.

Oh well.

That's the problem with these servers - in 1 week instanced PoF/PoH clears will start happening, in 2 weeks people will start heading up to Sky, by the end of the month 75% of the server will be in full No Drop gear and have Naggy/Vox on farm.

The glorious days of leveling in bronze armor don't last very long with instancing. In classic EQ after 1 year of server life there was...what?...20 Cloaks of Flame on an entire server? There will be 1000's on Agnarr by the time Kunark drops in 90 days.

[Daldaen]

Grouped with 5 pals from P99, grinded from levels 1-7. Had some great battles with burly gnolls and 3 giant snakes. We were rolling a classic NBG group.

Put Giant snake fangs on our bard and Enchanter, some chain armor on our bard and leather armor on our Monk. Very classic experience.

8/10 so far, the login issues were annoying but to be expected. I look forward to leveling with some more pals this evening after work.

[jerryR]

I really like it here. I love the older mechanics - where some luck and creativity went a lot further to making it feel like an actual world. Rather than canned zones like Wow.

I did play on Lockjaw but massive mage teams with ISboxer turned me off of it. So I was considering Agnarr just because I liked it stopping at PoP without as much concern about that kind of crap.

I guess my question would be - is end game here really as bad as people rant about ?? I can't really get a read on whether or not it's true. So far everyone I've met has been absolutely awesome in game.

While this is all somewhat true, the point of the server isnt to sit on the same expansion for 4 years till the final xpac. (Like p99 did)

I myself won't prob. raid till just before luclin. I plan to level to 60 across classic/kunark/velious then have 6 months of glorious luclin/pop era fun till deciding if I want to continue playing (depends if pantheon is out or in beta stage).

If you have the mind set that any tlp daybreak (or sony) was meant to be classic then you're going to be really disappointed.

Some of us dont have 16 hours a day to relive classic eq.
This server serves the purpose of providing people a classic flavored experience. Some of us dont get sexually attracted to our EQ toons where we play for the sake of playing, who knows. If people cap their toons at 5o with raid gear after a month good on em.

If you want classic, donate your life, farm fungi's dor 4 years type of play... by all means stick to p99.

[Spyder73]

I will probably play the TLP some, I just really wish they would stop with this "expansion unlock" bull sh!t. Just open the server with all the expansions unlocked. No one really wants 9 more months of classic/velious. I'm sure Daybreak thinks this nets them more money so whatever.

I played Phinny through all of classic stopped during Kunark. Thinking I'll pick Agnarr up in late stages of Velious or launch of Lucilin (BEASTLORD).

P99 until then!

[Squabbles123]

We only lost about 200 total population at peak hours last night from the Agnarr launch.

That might drop a bit more as they make it stable...but doesn't seem like that many people left us. About 7% pop loss.

To each his own. While some people exaggerate the state of the raid scene here, they certainly are not making it up. It's a screensharing,neckbearding, lawyerquesting clusterfuck. Could it change in the near future if agnarr sucks some of the top end out of p99? Possible. Not Likely.

[Phenyo]

Wheres all the good UIs at?

[BallzDeep]

I'm dead serious they still didn't adjust any of the issues for the Store dupe that is probably still running. I know a special someone who got 6 14 Slot bags for free, 30 EXP pots, and 4 group ones for the cost of 1200 DBC.

You play on Phinny? It took them a couple of weeks to clean up the defiant bug. They eventually got it all cleaned up. It hasn't even been 24 hours. Lots of little sissy drama queens around here.

[BallzDeep]

While I agree with you, this situation is different. It basically gives 25% exp pots to someone not paying for them and gives you the ability to level faster than anyone else since you can have an exp pot on 24/7. It also allowed you to get group exp pots and already start selling a spot (given you won't get much plat now). I have a feeling they won't catch this bug since I haven't seen anyone mention it and my buddy stumbled upon it randomly based on things that have to be done in a certain order while having the correct station cash in your account.

Yeah, once everyone who wants to take advantage of the brokenness has had a chance to do so...then, maybe they'll get around to fixing the problem.

Holy shit you couldn't pay me to play on Agnarr at this point.

[aaezil]

Why do you people keep saying/thinking that agnarr will be a PoP server? It will be an ldon server as its last xpac....

[Sadiki]

They officially call it a "PoP locked" server, probably because LDoN is a minor amount of content in comparison. So it makes sense for the players to call it that too.

There's a 60 minute queue atm. I think you're underestimating how many people are trying to login atm.

I don't think you comprehend what the que is actually doing. It's because daybreak was manually throttling how many people could enter character creation. There were maybe 3,000 people.

It's nice when people come to conclusions based purely on their own assumptions.

The que had nothing to do with the population actually playing on the server. It was to limit how many people were creating characters. Did you even bother to read the official forums during all this or do you just make shit up as you go?

Hard to care about issues that happened like 5 years ago and are 100% moot at this point.

Pretty different from brand new issues that could have been easily avoided with even a basic competent server team.

Now I know what you'll say here, something about p99 admins not fixing bugs right?

Difference here, p99 is free, Live is not. There is ZERO excuse to have game breaking issues at launch on a server they are CHARGING TO PLAY ON.

We aren't going to go back and forth about perfect world scenarios. Unfortunately, people have been trying to gain an advantage over others at whatever cost in every single mmorpg. It happened on p99 and they recovered. It just happened on Agnarr and they will also recover. The 4 insignificant trolls complaining about it on these forums and not even playing on the server isn't going to make a single difference.

What advantage is P99 trying to gain over every other mmorpg? They don't charge and have to be non profit as per their agreement with daybreak. It's kinda pathetic how much of a fan girl you are thoigh, can't even admit that daybreak fucked up hard on this release.

The entire problem could have been avoided if daybreak had allowed character creation to start a week before the actual release. But that would have telakeb a modicum of common sense and forethought. Have a release that avoided very easy to find bugs and exploits isn't a perfect world, it's what QA testers are for. But please keep defending daybreak for no reason other than the fact you already paid them for a defunct product. Lmfao

Pretty sure you misread that horribly. He was explaining that people in every single MMORPG try to gain advantage over each other and that people did so inside P99 and P99 was fine. He very plainly didn't state that P99 somehow, with ~1200 people, was trying to "get a leg up on other mmorpg's in the market", that obviously would make no sense.
