Luclin was a good, fun expansion despite being bad and unfinished

AA's were kind of nice.

AAs started everquest

before AA there was nothing to do once you were max level other then wait for boring / pointless raids

unfortunately it made it very hard for new players to catch up so when your guild bled good people you got garbage and that took its toll once you got past gates because new players would never put the time in

eventually they made exp faster if you had less then XX amount of AA but it didnt help much

AA's made it so after quitting eq for a bit and coming back, you aren't 100% out of date. A good example is when a wow expansion comes out and your purples are worse than greens. AA's last forever, and they are very class balancing.

Compared to 1-60, how long does it take to get your class's max AA's in Luclin?

At max Luclin AA, without the Luclin expansion would the game become overly simple?

[Naethyn]

AA = level 55 worth of exp. I think there were around 360~ AA depending on class in Luclin.

[radda]

currently max'd aa on takproject on my bard.
kiting it took about the same time as if to go from 1-60 no help, first char on project1999
if you aint kiting, you probably wont see max aa.

AA's were cool. It made rangers fun

Devs here think 2001 content aint classic so it wont happen on P99

Luclin and PoP would be really fun on a populated server.

It's not just the devs thinking it. They also removed most or all of Luclin+ related-code from their branch of the server source, and it's been done a long time ago (Rogean talks about it on the forums, can google it).

Considering how much added custom code there must be in the P99 branch compared to today's EQEMU master branch, merging them would probably require cosmic amounts of work on the server but probably also on the database and the client. It doesn't sound like something the volunteers who run this place are (or should be) willing to do in the foreseeable future.

So, basically, even if they wanted to add Luclin, they still probably wouldn't do it.

(But thankfully, they hate Luclin)

p99 will have a luclin server i guarantee it, rogean said it himself

devs dont matter, they work for rogean and he makes the calls

Stay tuned for next year
