9 months sounds good.

I played from launch of everquest live until the end of planes of power. After Velious the game changed dynamically.For pvp servers it included areas that were pvp safe zones which screwed up pvp. I think that Velious is alot of people's favorite expansion. They added a cold snowy area because it complimented kunark and classic worlds lack of snowy areas and it seemed to level the playing field for melee classes with better weapons. Right now on p99 there are all kinds of weapons with velious weapons dmg/dly ratios. The devs put them in the game because they know it helps to balance the game more for melee. There were also alot of spells that made hybrids more capable in their rolls, and it defined alot of classes. At no time were classes more different then in velious.( in core dynamic roles, AAs changed minor details )

I know coding isnt near complete and its a huge project in itself to get velious up. I think there is also a lack of code for it.

But for me and a lot of people i know that was the peak of everquests time.

Y'now despite half the zones in Luclin being essentially superfluous and some of the AA's being complete horse shit, some of the raid content was intense and I had almost as much fun PvP going on in Fungus Grove as in Velks Lab. That was only because it was far enough away from a safe zone, though. The safe zones were garbage.

please no Velious, starting Velious the old world became trivial. it was a fun expansion because population was large anyway, but it trivialized a whole lot.

to early to say, first we need to see how many will play on the server... there is no need for kunark if there are only 100 online on prime

also, i remember rogean thinkin about classic only
