Project Quarm - 1 Box Planes of Power

[Seducio]

For insight on Baghdad Bob (image posted above) I highly recommend the movie 'What about Bob' with Bill Murray and Richard Dreyfus.

Masterpiece

OG Paw + OG Grimling war + OG AC would be interesting.

Regarding Paw:

Which version of splitpaw will be there on launch?

The one without the elementals. Infected Paw
The OG one was moved to South Karana very quickly after launch in Classic. Then, that new Infected Paw version stayed until LDON which isn't on this server.

No mention of other Luclin items you brought up yet. TAKP is a good outline, but PQ Luclin timeline is still TBA other than it will be 9 months long.

2.0 Paw, 1.0 Grimling War + 1.0 Acrylia Caverns are on TAKP and functional, Ring of Fire et al.

I actually made a "Ring of Barking" that no one found during the stress test. Was hidden near Hadden.

Quarm should have The Bazaar in at launch. Put the baz stone in the EC tunnel.

let's just avoid all of the bullshit of the EC tunnel from day 1 on this server.

flag a trader account so it can be online with the player's main account, like on TAKP

What about Miragul's Highway? I've never checked if those go on TAKP.

This x 1000.

Just enable Nexus, Bazaar and spires from day 1. Enable a trader flagged account and only allow boxing 1 game account and 1 trader account. Trader characters spawn in bazaar.

Would be lovely.

There's definitely a quality of life argument to be made for the Bazaar, but I think if that's implemented it should come later in the timeline. Some point in the Kunark era perhaps, once the server has matured a bit. For all of its flaws, there's an undeniable magic to the Classic EQ experience, which includes the EC tunnel as a trading hub. If you change that formula, you rob people of a large part of the nostalgia they're obviously looking for by choosing to play a nearly 25 year old game.

I definitely don't agree that Nexus and porting spires should be available from day one, though. That completely changes the feel of the game. Something like that should only be considered if the server pop was so low that ports were not widely available, which doesn't seem like it will be the case given the interest Quarm is generating. That stuff should only be released with Luclin, as per the live timeline.

only the purist masochists

many more players than them are just trying to play a game 1-2 hrs at a time

there is no monthly sub, so there is no reason to design the game to be time sinky
