Elder Dragons (EQEmu Server)
What makes us different from other EQEmu servers? The first thing to mention is the professional IT background of the operators. If we're gonna do something, we do it right. We are financially independent and do not rely on donations to run the server. Unlike other Velious/Classic servers, we always give the player the freedom of choice. No matter if he wants to play strictly classic or if he prefers for example the Luclin models, it is possible. Our server is not based on another copy of PEQ. The database and the quests are unique. OUR VISION - Recreating the golden Velious Era with all classic zones and classic inspired gameplay. - High quality custom quests, carefully designed in a way that they do not interfere with the original feeling of the game. - No absolute fixation on "Classic". Minor deviations or some QoL features of modern clients remain. - Providing a stable and well balanced home for players. - Challenging and rewarding long-term game play. - Not made for multiboxers or players who want to reach everything as fast as possible. - Single Box Server (exceptions for family on request). - Zero tolerance for cheats like MQ2 and any kind of automated gameplay. - This project comes from EQ enthusiasts and is made for EQ enthusiasts. No donations needed or wanted. FEATURES - Professionally hosted in a data center. Will be there for many years. It is made to stay! - All zones of the Velious Era in their classic versions. - Unique handmade database including all beloved classic items. - Every single quest has been revised and adjusted to the Velious era. - Lots of fluff added to recreate the original feeling. - Most 'nerfs' have been rolled back. - NPC guilds in which you can level up. - Over 300 new quests. - Many new secrets to discover. - Level related weekly quests. - Sortable leaderboards. - Achievement System with unique player titles. - Own Storyline with new items, spells and currencies. - Hub zone in East Commonlands Tunnel with many new quests. - New ways to obtain epic weapons and epic weapons are upgradable. - Fully working ship travel between Butcher and Freeport. - Fun with Gigglegibber lottery - Treasure goblins with shiny loot - And much, much more! QUALITY OF LIVE FEATURES - Balanced instance system for demanded raid zones. - Shadowrest is available in case everything goes wrong. - New ways to travel. - Some QoL Features of the RoF2 client. - State of the art website. - English, German and Japanese speaking Gamemasters. THE DRAGON CLIENT - Our RoF2-based client provides a custom made Velious style user interface, classical magic effects and classical sound. - The client is available in two versions: DragonClientClassic and DragonClientHd with high-resolution textures. | ||

Log in or Register.] That being said, it sounds like all you're offering over P99 is small QoL fixes like instances, and some custom content. If you instead went to Luclin or PoP (vs. the exact same expansion as P99), you'd offer something genuinely different, something that people can't already get. Without that, I suspect you'll have a difficulty finding enough of a community, as I suspect few people will leave P99 and start all over on a brand new server, just to get what they already have here ... but with some unknown custom content. Stuff like instances won't exactly be a selling point when your server has less than a few hundred people: you'll need something else (like Luclin) to get to the population where instances even matter.

On a side note, I will be happy to answer questions in the future on elderdragons.com. There is far too little going on there. | ||||

A lot of posters have an important point that I have to chime in and agree with. Please introduce Luclin content else you aren’t offering enough of a push to try your new server. I for one would love to play a beast lord again.

I expect the server to get really full in the next winter. In many countries, well at least in my country, Corona is hardly an issue anymore and hopefully people will be doing something other than hanging around in front of the computer. Nevertheless, we have decided to go ahead with the release. This gives us time to fix any bugs before it gets busy. | |||

Loramin makes a great point about how it's not offering enough difference to probably attract anyone here to restart. I might give it a go once Mischief runs its course just to check it out. I love the no boxing rule. Does it have AA's from luclin at least? That might be reason enough. It does say some QoL features and newer systems stay in place...
What is npc guilds? Is that like mercenaries but 20-40 of them? If so pass!

Will my installation of titanium as set up for p99 work, or will it require another installation of the game?
Disregard. I checked your site and downloaded the zip file. Looking forward to your startup. | ||
