Considering it wasn't revamped until 2004, the state of VP on EQmac is the oldest in existence.

Harmony may no longer be used in VP, pending update.

actualy the live revamp released to normal servers was 2004 in stormhammer it was late 2003 . i was part of the few stormhammer players who actualy had the key pre revamp and field etst the zone in private with then GM lead Pugigi.

this initial revamp didint have quests but yes planar items level drops and the chance to spawn mini bosses for the classic loot.

quests where added later along the event for the new key .

Cool, didn't know that.

Either way, eqmac is PoP era which is 2002. If further evidence presents itself later, or before next patch, update this.

i had printed stormhammer bulletyn and the addons for the new zones revamps updates sadly i dont own a scanner.

i only can tell you the lvl 65 pacify worked in vp as well harmony .

the main thing come to mind is they removed actualy the insta repop chance and the 1500 hitter wurms .

eqmac is pop era but as far i saw there is tweaks from further expansions like stun nerf agro.

I used 'early' since I refer to PoP era as the PoP to GoD era without regard to LoY or LDoN for obvious reasons.

May 13, 2003 - Veeshan's Peak - We have changed this zone to make it more appealing, particularly for those playing with one or two groups. We have removed the restriction against using gate in this zone and modified the zone population. Over all, the zone will be better to play in.

VP underwent a mini-revamp on May 13, 2003. They added a bunch of named NPCs, changed the respawn of the zone, changed pathing, changed it so you can gate, removed what we called splitters, removed the ass-rape melee wurms, and some other stuff that I'm not recalling.

Anyhow, I'm not aware of what date EQMac goes up to. EQMac has a functional PoTime which would put its patch to May 20ish, 2003. However, they don't have Veksar which would push this date back. To top matters off, their Allakhazam Mirror lists nameds from this version of VP that I'm referring to, but also lists NPCs from the Elemental-VP revamp which clearly isn't the case.

This is what I thought Arteker was referring to. I can't see any reason for them to remove harmony to make the zone more difficult when the goal was to make the zone easier, but EQ patches aren't known for their precision. Overall, I agree with the decision to remove Harmony from VP.

EQMac Client didn't get anymore updates after October 2002 (Approximate).

Hobart has fixed some bugs there but I don't think anything was ever changed regarding Veeshan's Peak.

Much love as always Treats.

Did Hobart specifically add PoTime to EQMac on his own then?

druid and ranger stock just went down a little. pras.

[Handull]

druids and rangers were already doomed in vp. hide being fixed to invis only means they aren't safe, and the current single target harmony and despell bugs didn't help.

I just fail to see the importance of removing harmony in VP when only one guild ever zones in there due to the flaws in the rules concerning the zone. Training isn't classic, so whats the issue with harmony being used there?
