Luclin is the greatest thing that could happen here. This server started as project 1999. We are currently in 2001. It only takes a dev team with the desire to see it happen for it to happen.

sounds desperate

A true artist designed the original EQ models...Luclin models are uninspired piles of polygons...,.

The expansion is not good. If they do custom content here, it should be AA's, which were the only good thing to come out of that expansion.

Hopefully that was your first TLP server cause once you’ve done one, you’re done

Luclin was good.

What if the developers decided to add Luclin, but with a twist - once you travel to any of those zones, you were permanently "banned" from stepping foot onto Norrath ever again? Your bind point would initially change to be bound to the Nexus, but you could not port down through any of the four portals. Any and all teleportation spells would be limited to those areas involved with the Luclin expansion. Yes, you would be able to fill those AA points to your heart's content, but Antonica, Kunark, Velious, and the planes as they are today would be forever your character's past life.

AAs would be really good for Project 1999 as they give something for people to do with their raid geared characters other than farming fungi tunic #253 and generally extend a pretty simple game. I would hate them on a progression server, though.

Luclin is also the start of tradeskills not sucking (Blessed Shawl, CT armor, Solstice) which I also think is good.

So far the TAKP Luclin raids I've done are mostly Velious part Two (with even more HP/AC). The notable exceptions appear to be Shei and Emperor Ssra. It's kind of funny in a way, the Emperor is the hardest encounter and the 'reward' is to be sucked into VT for hours of clearing trash. Almost like Naethyn was in charge of Luclin raid design . . .

I don't know why everyone hates the Vah Shir. Beastlords are a little too good because Verant wanted people to play the new class, but otherwise Luclin graphics seem fine (note: I use the classic graphics for characters).

Luclin's Nexus is great. PoK is dumb. I wonder if Druids and Wizards got more ports in GoD and beyond?

Verdict: Luclin is OK. It's an extremely ambitious expansion that didn't quite hit the mark, especially since it was released early with lots of bugs. I think Velious is actually a pretty weak expansion. Verant was taking their first baby steps towards challenging raid content and at first all they could come up with was huge hitpoint totals. In Luclin you can see a few of the scripted raids that are apparently the norm in PoP. The problem is that as Verant was making their raids more challenging they were also busy trivializing every other part of the game.

If you want to play Luclin, and don't absolutely loath boxing, I'd recommend TAKP. Just make sure to roll Enchanter/Cleric/X (or Beastlord/Cleric/X if you don't want to charm). You'll thank me later. In a lot of ways TAKP is more balanced than P99, but the balance holes they do have (Pacify/Charm) are big enough to drive a truck through. No poopsocking is just awesome tho.

after re doing all the "content" on agnarr from classic to Quarm, Luclin was the most boring xpac on that server by far imo

There's other servers with Luclin available.

After the last Velious patch is implemented here some exciting custom content is on its way, there's life in the server yet ^^ [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

What kind of custom content? New quests and lore?

Care to elaborate?

For me personally it was just incredibly boring , the raid content was super boring getting VT keys for the whole guild took 2 weeks of hardcore socking sucked and Ssra Temple was only fun the first time we cleared it, getting AAs was kinda cool, I think it would have been alot more fun on p99 cause agnarr and prog servers are completely different game compared to p99.
