when i played phinney my wizard won the white scale drop from vox on like the first month of launch.

I sold that bitch for 12 krono and then used those 12kr to be a rockstar on the followup TLPS. the problem is that the other tlps sucked (agnarr was cool at the beginning)

It’s the value of that server’s economy dropping, not of krono increasing.

thats a pretty good bump i imagine the base krono is about 10k on a brand new server lol, why anyone would sell that low baffles me

i reckon any kronos on Aradune will be hitting the 30k mark in a few months

They started about 2k for a krono on aradune. They fall like halfway through an xpac and go up right before a new server or xpac

I think Krono is digital currency on a server?

Does this mean that on new live servers the actual point of the game is to do what people do to make this server shit? Like just suicide rush and shitsock on all worthy camps to make money in real life?

Really hardcore junkies farm krono to trade for high end items and run boxes on live so they can power lvl alts and do group content.

I suspect the majority of krono is traded on Firiona Vie. Ironic. Sadly krono is account wide and the worst offenders trade it to accounts they won't risk getting banned.

If krono was only server wide and botting was cracked down on more people would be in better shape. That said all krono in circulation came directly from cash purchases on daybreak. At some point the market contracts and krono increases in value making it profitable for people to buy off the market or from daybreak to use as a source of plat or directly for items.

Most current content is instanced anyways so krono only has limited use and basically replaces the cost of a subscription.

It's really only problematic around new server launches and in some old world zones and old servers where people are botting gated content for achievements. None of that is really necessary to reach 115 tho.

I guess it only really matters to about a 3rd of the pop. The rest of us still are cool and normal and don't need krono or items and achievements.

It's going to be moderately inconvenient on mischief and thornblade for a few months.

I see less bitching about botting on Aradune general chat. So I imagine things will remain fine for awhile anyway there. Dunno. Im not high enough or heavily invested in high end velious-pop content. So I can't honestly tell u how it's going to work out.

Hopefully Aradune remains well policed. So it's only ever a moderate inconvenience.

I'm pretty sure daybreak doesn't buy back krono. Either. So you can't really make money from it unless you RMT it with a 3rd party which is technically against the rules. Same old problems as before.

RMT for items and plat is pretty easy to track. RMT for power leveling is also. It may or may not be common on P99 but do you know what is common on P99? Mass RMT bans (I feel like it’s usually once or twice a year they do sweeping bans).

Also, what’s interesting is that the only people I know who talk about how common RMT is on P99 have either been RMTers themselves or they are friends with RMTers and don’t report them. Otherwise, how would they know how common RMT is? Which one are you Joe?

Gotta crack down on botting and multiboxing. The only way to do this reliably is better encryption and authentication of a single player as well as Spyware dlls.

Both DBG and P99 aren't going to be able to do this economically, or profitably.

We need an in game justice system and elections to grant suspension powers to groups of players.

The game is really too old but both DBG and p99 are about on par with their anti cheating efforts.

Allowing DPS races was a good move by DBG because it allows guilds and legitimate gamers to band together and cut into the profitably of cheaters.

FTE and encounter locking is a shit system prone to corruption and nepotism or just zerging and memory hacks.

Pras to both DBG & p99 rly keeping this very old ship seaworthy as it is up until 2021. Maybe longer.

It's why I hate people who box, or bot, even innocently or justify it because the game is slow.

Anyway it really isn't and you can still enjoy it without krono, botting, or boxing. Hope this helps anyone on the fence or curious about EQ. Live or p99.

I wanted to get back to you involving your incident related to a "kill-steal" today. Unfortunately, this is not a violation of the Rules of Conduct. Please feel free to contest any NPC in any zone of EverQuest as we already have a built-in system for determining loot rights. The player who does the most DPS to the enemy during the course of its engagement will receive the loot rights to the corpse. The community-term, 'Camps', is not recognized by Daybreak games as it upholds an unrealistic standard on the definition of fair-play gaming experience.

Please feel free to intervene all NPC's you desire to kill and loot, even if other players waiting for an enemy to spawn. The loot rights to the corpse will be awarded to the player who delivered the most damage per second to the enemy.

Hands of approach. Truly classic. If a player KSes you then refuse to group with him, slander his name etc. This is true EQ and what made it better than WoW where you don’t even remember the names of other players.

probably because the cleric was running a script and not actually playing

i always loved playing cleric even back in 2004-6 when botting and macroquesting was becoming a thing because people would complement me on my abilities, you can't script a good cleric still

the thing is there is enough 'easy mode' stuff to do that u can just farm your way into content and no strategy is required, it's not so easy to script a mythic plus grp in wow, i'm sure some people have figured out ways to do it, but its just less likely.

Guess this issn't rally a rant so that it got moved I don't mind.

The only way to get people to bott and script less is to disensentivize (make it less profitable) and less convienient than just soloing, and make it so u can script as much in raid content, like wow does, were u can script 'normal raids', but scripting heroic or mythic raids isn't gonna happen, so box armies just dont exist there,


also gatekeep the F2P content so that u cant use an army of F2P bots to do current content, u shouldnt be able to get past lvl 65 on modern EQ F2P, but they had to keep the game alive some how.

You have NO IDEA how satisfying this was. This dude literally trained our group, I had to resurrect 2 people in the court yard, which took a few minutes. So we go back to our Fireplace, and we're the first there. This bot army led by Ragnar (again, the guy who trained us) shows up, and begins to pull our mobs and we literally own his DPS. He doesn't have a single Enchanter in his group. A bot army of Dwarf Warriors (literally). Meanwhile we have Torklar and Gnome Spelunker as our pets, Human Monk, Magician etc. He does not stand a chance.

So he's basically just helping us kill stuff when suddenly he makes up this sob story about how we had abandoned the camp for 30 minutes. Literally a complete lie. We left for like 5-10 minutes tops after he trained us, but guess what? It does not matter. He cannot out DPS us. Problem instantly solved.

Don't try to steal from people who can easily out-damage you. Don't make up lies about the camp being abandoned and play dumb / innocent because even if it's true IT DOES NOT MATTER.

Before you guys start to defend him just know that other players on P99 have already had bad experiences with this same guy over on TLP. He's a piece of garbage, but also easily dealt with. I have been wanting to put people in their place for years.. like since the day I started P99.. because on the EverQuest I remembered it was the wild west. People could train, people KS you, and you could defend yourselves accordingly -- and by proxy, this guy is quickly becoming a very hated person on our server -- so in the end the system works flawlessly.

It's like my hands are finally untied and it feels SOOOOOO good. :)

Edit: I don't think this guy realizes that on P99 we won’t hesitate to break a dwarf’s teeths in half for trying to steal a mob.

Some things I've noticed about the TLP playerbase (that I also noticed the short time I played on Green):

1. They are bad at the game. Holy shit the amount of druids, clerics, and other casters who will just let shit beat on them as they stand there healing themselves, or run around ineffectually, is astonishing. These aren't the sweatlord pros I know from blue. People building groups in stupid spots with stupid, ineffectual comps. I'm no radical min/maxer, hell, I play a ranger, but having played EQ on and off for 20 years it hurts me to see this in my groups sometimes.

2. Terrible social skills. Very clear many of the people I come across have some kind of retardation and/or haven't left the house since the 90's. Some tantrums over loot, lots of quiet folk who barely speak up even when directly addressed.

3. Cash shop. They love it.

These aren't the sweatlord pros I know from blue. People building groups in stupid spots with stupid, ineffectual comps. I'm no radical min/maxer, hell, I play a ranger, but having played EQ on and off for 20 years it hurts me to see this in my groups sometimes.

2. Terrible social skills. Very clear many of the people I come across have some kind of retardation and/or haven't left the house since the 90's. Some tantrums over loot, lots of quiet folk who barely speak up even when directly addressed.

3. Cash shop. They love it.

That said, it's been fun so far and I've had some fun groups
You are playing with a lot of bots. If a dude just stands there and gets beat or repeatedly sits after pulling aggro over and over again you’re not playing with a real human player. That’s also why they never respond.

There are problems with the community, but I find the average TLP player to be more skilled than the average P99 player. The game itself is harder than P99. P99 is just grindier. Like when I buff my group on P99 I buff everyone at one time and don’t worry about it for a couple of hours. On TLP I don’t have enough mana to do that, so I’m constantly trying to slowly buff and maintain buffs on multiple players while also trying to save enough mana to heal and I regularly have to CC, dispel mobs, stun, cure poison/disease every single pull — something far less common on P99 — also dying is super common — my cleric on p99 never dies between two barriers and lower mob AI where you drop all aggro super easy and root is broken OP and never resists or breaks.

There’s not nearly as many chanters and it’s completely normal for players to CC 5 mobs in compact spaces using nothing but Root or Necromancer mez or Bard charm... P99 players would never even attempt this, if they don’t get an enchanter they just give up.

Also I would say people on TLP communicate way more if they aren’t bots..I’ve been in Discord calls with almost every single group I’ve had.. this never happened, not even once on P99...


The biggest problem I’ve had so far is people being blatantly greedy. For instance almost every group I’ve been in has a group leader who decides to give himself loot because he needs it, but doesn’t apply the same logic to others in the group. For instance a Shaman earlier awarded himself 5 pieces of Totemic, including the helmet and a darksea harpoon because they are Shaman only... but then when abalone gorget and adamantite epaulets drop, and I’m the only Cleric... nah, time to greed roll. Had a Ranger do the same thing with Granite bracers, and then when Runed Mithril Bracers drop and I NEED them, nah, greed roll... same dude took a mithril breastplate and then took a brigantine tunic 5 minutes later... and then when the bard wants another brig tunic that drops.. same guy insists on greed roll...this isn’t like rare occurrences either, every group I’ve been in has been like this and people tolerate it because they want to level while exp is still fast but you can tell everyone silently hates it.

Also saw a Druid win a thick banded belt and then curse a rogue out for not giving the Druid black chitin leggings that dropped...like wtf lol

Look forward to getting a guild with people I like playing with because so far I kind of hate a lot of people and have already started a shut list of people I won’t group with.

Edit those of us who hit 50 super fast may be much more skilled and competitive than those who are still level 30... maybe there are legit bads down there, but I feel like I’m playing with ultra competitive people..

In what world do people on P99 not use Bard or Nec mez or charm, or not use root, to CC in groups? That’s the dumbest thing I’ve heard you say in awhile lol. If you actually communicate in the group and pick one or two people to be on root duty they will root. The only bad things I’ve seen with root is someone by accident rooting a mob right next to a group member who was sitting down...people root constantly as CC.

And saying people don’t use bard mez or charm as cc? Makes me wonder if you’ve actually played much on P99 because this happens nonstop in groups with Bards unless you ask them not to do it. Nec charm is less common, usually because it’s simply not needed since everyone can just root for cc.

Also TLP = real gamers. I never met anyone on P99 who plays games. On TLP almost everyone in my groups plays Apex, OW, WoW, LoL. Very competitive and high skill groups. Try going AFK on TLP and see how that works out for you. Have seen many DPS get the boot for low damage, and casters get booted over forgetting to buy critical spells — there are a lot of people who want your spot in a group, so do your job well. There is competition— people steal our rares and we still their rares. Fun. The sky is the limit. Love being OOM and almost wiping 24/7 for insane reward.

It's not worth it at all. I think a lot of people have jobs and weren't able to level to 50 really fast like the rest of us. Like on P99 Green as a Cleric for me to go out and get a Mithril 2 Handed Sword it would be a massive under-taking that would require me getting in good with an Enchanter who was willing able to camp King, assuming the camp is open, and it could take days.

On TLP? They drop at Kobold Royals, BNB, and multiple camps in Lower Guk that I've personally seen. I think newbs don't realize this and are willing to drop cash on stuff like that, but I doubt very seriously that anyone over level 40 would even buy a Mith 2 handed sword for 100p. There are also better weapons that are trade-able now.

By the time you are mid 40s most of your group members will be wearing planar gear and using planar weapons.

Edit: If you plan on spending money on this game, buy stuff like crates. I got some game-breaking items out of mine, like being able to teleport to Misty Thicket or Fool's Gold Tavern any time I want as a Cleric is insane.

They weren't bots, they were communicative. My experience as well with loot; I only play in groups that N everything or that I lead. I had some druid throw a tantum after we wouldn't give him Gatorscale leggings after I had to roll against 3 druids for my first magic weapon as a ranger. Booted his ass to the curb.

Just more Joe lies.

People group all the time without enchanters. Obviously if there’s an open spot and a group needs an ench they will try to take an ench over another class but it’s a joke to say that people just refuse to group without enchanters. I have seen a couple groups disband at a certain point depending on group composition and level if the content they’re doing is too high for the healer to keep up with without C, but those are limited instances and not the same as saying no one will ever group without an Ench.

Joe usually just talks about things he does and applies them to everyone else.

You know this really does feel like classic EverQuest. 20 years ago when you got a group in Lower Guk you didn't just camp AM or just Ritualist. You camped the entire wing you were in.

One of the problems with P99 is that you're only allowed to camp one mob, which means that there's no reason to group up there. On P99 I can remember people declaring that they were camping cavalier, exe or ritualist while waiting for a better camp to open up -- as a veteran I found this extremely odd because I remember these wings being camps designed to sustain an entire group. On TLP this would never happen. You can likely go to another pick if you want to solo something (no one is going to fight you over a single camp, especially when drops are random), but you can also go to a pick and get into a group that is able to camp entire wings at once without any drama. Last night I got into an "exe" group, where we also killed Ritualist, Ass/Supp, and even pulled Sentinel, hand room and AM regularly. It felt like the Guk I actually remembered all those years ago. Guk is an exciting zone when you hear "Rit is up, Cav is up" etc. On P99 it's like okay let's wait 28 minutes... for another placeholder... on TLP when you're pulling multiple rare PHs .... the way that the zone was intended... there's almost a guaranteed chance you'll get at least 1-2 rares every respawn cycle.

Game actually feels way more challenging when you’re pushing yourself to get as many rare mobs as you can before respawn. Clearing down the hallway to Lord, completely OOM, having Paladin tank also off heal, being on the verge of a wipe the entire time as you race back from Lord to Frenzied... you start to really value good players more, and you get your own opportunity to show people what you can do...

And with Pick zones, you can easily get your own zone to solo in if that's what you really want. I was solo'ing Sentinel and Supplier/Assasssin last night without any drama, when another group asked me if I wanted to join them at Ham/Lord and camp EVERY THING, and we did.

Also a level 50 Cleric on TLP is super powerful in Lower Guk because of the way banestrike and mana regen works. Your Undead nukes take significantly less mana to cast than they do on P99, and with Banestrike they do like 600 damage (Sound of Force with banestrike is like 400 damage), so with Clarity and Bard Song I was able to stay above 70% mana while nuking every single mob into oblivion, but at the same time I was the main healer.

I felt immensely powerful, sort of like how Druids have their moment in Sol B when they charm a Sonic Bat.

But also one genius thing about Thornblade and Mischief... if you want to solo Guk for rares, you absolutely can do this, and it has it's perks, but since you don't actually know which mob is going to drop FBSS, or Guise, you are way better off joining up with another group where you're able to kill many named mobs instead of just one mob by yourself like you normally would on P99.

Edit: Vendors selling invisibility potions is a really nice thing for a Cleric. Especially on a server where you want to by pass a lot of trash mobs for a specific rare mob ;)

The instances and random loot make this game so much more fun. Someone showed up to snipe my camp. Did I get mad? No, because I can use a translocator to hop over to Unrest in a matter of minutes, find a pick that is empty, and go farm rares for a chance at a Pearl Kedge Totem, Pegasus Cloak or Guise of Deceiver. Get bored of that? Hit origin and go farm rares on Kerra Isle for a chance at a Cloak of Shadows or Large Soiled Bag. All the meanwhile I have people asking me if I want to go farm Lower Guk, Efreeti, Fire Giants etc. It feels like you can actually log in and always find something fun to do within a matter of minutes.

Classic is only out for so long so the enhanced loot drops are nice. Like it’s still not super easy to get items, but most players will still have decent gear by the time Kunark drops. Aradune, despite having no drop items, still made loot relatively accessible, which again, for short expac durations, that’s what you want/need. For instance if there is an item you day dreamed about having during PoP but never got... you will probably be able to get it here. It’ll still be challenging in most cases, but only in the sense that it takes a couple of weeks/months whereas on P99 it’s established that a player should spend 5 years building up their items (which isn’t classic either or representative of skill).

I also found one interesting life hack. After doing the evil erudite cleric quest for the shield I quickly realized since it’s not no drop it can be traded to good clerics who normally can’t do the quest. Just do the turn in on a level 1 alt evil cleric then transfer it over. Super easy quest and possibly profitable since most of the Clerics I talked to said they thought the quest was too hard.. I literally did entire quest solo in like an hour...

It's a good investment compared to just having platinum in the bank... but I haven't converted any of my platinum and don't intend to do so... I just don't find it really necessary for non-scrub players. The amount of platinum I've already accrued on Thornblade would be enough to buy the best Rogue daggers in the Bazaar on ARADUNE and then some. Kunark isn't even out yet. I don't see $$$ ever being an issue for me on TLP because I know how to farm efficiently, and I play a lot more than the average person.

Kronos doesn't have much appeal to me, and if I ever find myself in a situation where I really need some kronos, well I'm rich so I'll just buy some.

I'm guessing that it just truncates to like 1M platinum in the UI or 1k platinium (i still don't ahve more than 1 platinum, i just spent 258 on spells leveling up)

tbh would be cool if it just automatically truncated and dropped the M, K, B, G suffix so u knew how much it was that way you could easily split millions and u could just use 1M plat like it was 10 plat.

Sounds boring as hell and essentially just like WoW. Instances, great gear dropping everywhere. Defeats everything that makes EQ exciting and different from other MMOs lol. Might as well play WoW at that point.

Actually it's a little bit harder to farm "great gear" on Mischief than it is on P99. On P99 if you want Efreeti boots, you go kill Efreeti... on Mischief if you want Efreeti boots... well good luck, because I've never seen a pair drop and I've killed Efreeti a whole bunch. For days even.

Never seen an FBSS drop either. Within 2 weeks of starting on P99 I actually killed Frenzied and had an FBSS.... on Mischief I can kill Frenzied any time... and have many times.. and have still never seen him drop an FBSS. The game isn't as "easy" to farm high-end items, and that's the entire point. I had a young monk ask me where to farm a pair of magic gloves so he can actually punch stuff in Unrest and the answer was... dude I have no clue where anything drops. No one does.

During Memorial day weekend they increased the spawn rate of rare NPCs, so a lot of items people thought were super common ended up being super rare. I wish I could travel back in time and buy Pearl Kedge Totems when they were dropping once every hour, because I've leveled 3 toons through the same exact camp now and never seen one drop. Actually had people in my group call me a liar when I told them that Pearl Kedge Totem can drop at Unrest Fireplace.. because no one has ever seen it happen. But during Memorial Day weekend PKT was dropping at Unrest Fireplace non-stop.

How.. do you think the economy gets to be this stable, bro?
Magic hand of the market keeping fungi prices at 60k steady for the past 10 years even though tons are added to the fray? Whatever happened to supply and demand, Stan?

I think the rules on P99 that people so frequently QQ bout are what keeps the price down. Cannot steal camp. The rules have rules layered into them.

On TLP?
I'm sorry, was this your camp? It's mine now.
With a huge player base driving the price down.
Because your little camp is not protected by layers of rules the most conservatives of you keep complaining about but really, its to protect your interests.


Jesus christ you know you are dumb when people need to explain everything to you, uh, Jibardick.

I even gave you a hint.
I think it's pretty sad how conservative you are mostly because you are very dumb.

I got into a fight with a level 12 Bard. I was in Unrest solo'ing first floor in a mostly empty /pick. I got trained two times. Both times the train killed my pet and I had to zone. The third time I saw a train going by and it missed me, but then I saw this bard literally turn around and come back and intentionally hit me. When I questioned him about it, he didn't deny it, and told me that I was too low level to be in Unrest -- despite being twice his level and capable of solo'ing most of the first and 2nd floor on my own.

So I find this guy outside and I realize he's PL'ing himself with a high level magician. Simple solution. I log on my level 50 and go to Unrest. As I zone in there's another group at the zone-line who had been trained by the same individual. I find him alongside the wall and tell him he's obviously having a lot of issues with DPS so I'm here to help. I then spend 2 hours KS'ing every mob he pulls. If his Magician KS's me? I don't care. It keeps his low level bard from getting exp. if he doesn't ks me? it's okay, I get credit for the kill, and his bard gets no experience.

After about 2 hours of this the fight moved to general chat, with most of the server calling him and his guild garbage, other players joining in to talk about him intentionally training them so he could have the pick to himself, and it got so bad that his guild leader was contacted on Discord and logged into the game to deal with this dude.

This is how the game should work. Problems are solved between players, and this guy's name and guild are getting a terrible reputation on Thornblade as a result. And honestly it was super satisfying to rustle this kid and make him ultra mad. He accused me of being a basement dweller as he boxes 5 characters. And I flat out told him.. like why not go to Unrest or Perma? A zone no one cares about. Why come to the highest traffic zone and ruin it for everyone? Literally the definition of a textbook narcissist.

He later turned it into a sob story about how was doing this for his kids. At 9AM on a work day. Lol.

Edit: I also logged onto his guild's discord just to dox him so I have his real-life information now. Just in case I need to take this a step further in the future.

Story of not needing rules and community being responsible for self policing would be much more convincing if you named and shamed with evidence.

He accused you of being a basement dweller? Well I mean you did say that you were so is he wrong?
