Luclin Without Luclin

[Vear99]

I had a random EQ thought today: have the staff ever commented on the possibility of extending the Project 1999 timeline as if the player had simply not purchased the Luclin expansion? So that would mean no Luclin zones, no AAs, and no focus effects. It would mean the real Blade of Carnage, Eye of Zomm pulling nerf, Luclin upgrades to Magician Pets, 8th Shawl (minus Zephyr of Brell), Iksar Pike/Cudgel/Shackle quests, FT3 Sal Varae, Sleeper's Ancients, DoT stacking, and immunities rather than full MR raid bosses, plus maybe other things I've forgotten.

Honestly if there's anything I'd be fine with them adding I just want the 2 shared bank slots from what was it, ykesha?

It's fuckin annoying transferring gear. Or like, I had a set of decent starter caster items, could not for the life of me remember which account with which character it was on so you have to spend like 40 minutes logging in, getting to character select, getting kicked off because of whatever the fuck that error that always happens is, logging BACK in, waiting for whatever the arbitrary timer is for, finally checking one character, repeat ad nauseam.

The existing agreement involves going through luclin iirc. Problem is the end game velious content already pretty much breaks the game and adding in further upgrades without having more difficult encounters to use it on would be a huge issue.

People are already soloing phinny, ragefire, 6 necks, most epic quest mobs, hate minis, etc. We don't need people soloing full blown raid encounters

Some zones from Luclin, LoY, and even later expansions could be used as is, and many more could easily be customized/adapted to P99

The issue isn't the lack of new zones to use, it's the lack of interest by the P99 team. As far as I know Rogean and Nilbog haven't even mentioned doing anything custom at all in well over a decade.

Would be cool if they added 3 classing and made the game more like a solo player action RPG with a custom multiplayer hub zone for banking merchants and travel.

This, as much as I like soloing stuff I don't think what p99 needs is to be further trivialized. Most zones are already empty anyway I'm not sure we need more zones either.

Tunnelquesting fucking sucks though long live the bazaar...

Which sucked, long live the auction house!
