Not to be a wet blanket at all, but a serious question, shouldn't the Hole / Warrens come out before Kunark?

Epic mobs are in the hole.

I don't care either way, I started playing EQ the day Kunark came out so I am all for it, and I don't remember the order before Kunark.

Epics came out about six months into Kunark.

I LOVE you. Any chance of being able to eventually transfer Iksar beta characters back to live P99?

Not a chance.

-Hole came out in june 2000.. making it 2 months after Kunark release.

-Warrens came out in Velious.

-Epics were released in like September 2000, making them 5 months after Kunark release.

Original eqlive patch notes can answer a lot of questions about the timeline.

Cool, thanks.

And don't take that question the wrong way, this server and the work you guys do to maintain it is appreciated.

We continue to make source changes too, that do not make patch notes. Example, adding support to the code and database for soulbound items. Remember those? Gotta have those for Kunark, unless you want to sit your butt outside seb waiting indefinitely for a rez.

Also in support of additional server load, we look at ways of optimizing the source, to be able to handle additional players. These kinds of things usually don't make patch notes either.

There are a lot of things going on behind the scenes. But we are making leaps and bounds of progress towards the release of Kunark.

Looking forward to it.

Thanks so much for your hard work on this server.

Do you plan on following the live patch timelines or do you intend on opening Kunark with epics, (man i love those quests!)

Thanks !

Excellent update. Thanks for keeping us all in the loop.

No I don't actually remember Soulbound items but I didn't start until late Kunark and was a noob until Luclin came out. Can someone explain?

Also will the epic quests not be made available until 5 months into Kunark's release?

Soulbound items were items that remained in your inventory after you died. The only ones I can remember were the keys to Sebilis/Howling Stones/Veeshan's Peek.

It'll be a couple of months at least before anyone is able to kill VS (or VS Remains) or Trak anyways.
