Maybe it's time for velious beta then? I know I'd copy over and check whatever list you give me, and I'm sure many others feel the same way.

This has been up for over 6 months and hasn't received a single submission. It is irrelevant to a beta. A beta is supposed to test a finished product.

don't have an OP character on live but I will look into doing a couple quests on that list if its possible for my toon.

EDIT: Probably can't do a lot of those lol, i'm an SK... anything related to shadowknights that needs checking out? May be able to do the mage Q if I level him some..

Kael - Quest Coldain Skulls

Slaggak the Trainer

[Mon Dec 24 14:58:45 2012] Slaggak the Trainer kindly considers you -- You could probably win this fight.
[Mon Dec 24 14:58:48 2012] You say, 'Hail, Slaggak the Trainer'
[Mon Dec 24 14:58:48 2012] Slaggak the Trainer says 'Hello there, Half Elf. I am Slaggak, the trainer. The Kromrif here will soon be ready to serve the great and honorable King Tormax.'
[Mon Dec 24 14:59:09 2012] You say, 'i will serve'
[Mon Dec 24 14:59:09 2012] Slaggak the Trainer says 'So you say, little one. Why are you here, then? You should be out slaying those pestering little Coldain or maybe those damnable shard wurms and wyverns.'
[Mon Dec 24 14:59:11 2012] Slaggak the Trainer kindly considers you -- You could probably win this fight.
[Mon Dec 24 14:59:20 2012] You say, 'i am here to honor rallos zek'
[Mon Dec 24 14:59:24 2012] You say, 'i am here to honor tormax'
[Mon Dec 24 14:59:29 2012] You say, 'what coldain'
[Mon Dec 24 14:59:29 2012] Slaggak the Trainer says 'The Coldain are the ice dwarves. They have defiled our lands for long enough. Thinking of them makes my blood run hot. With my new position as trainer, I am not allowed to roam the lands and slaughter their kind as I once did.' Slaggak sighs. 'I long for the days when I could fashion necklaces from their skulls.''
[Mon Dec 24 14:59:34 2012] You say, 'what skulls'
[Mon Dec 24 14:59:34 2012] Slaggak the Trainer says 'Go from here and seek out the Coldain, slay them, and return to me with their heads. I wish to fashion four skull talismans as I once did. If you can do this for me, I will surely let King Tormax know of your deeds and reward you with a piece of armor from the Militia armory.'
[Mon Dec 24 14:59:48 2012] a frost giant commoner begins to cast a spell.
[Mon Dec 24 14:59:53 2012] Slaggak the Trainer looks down at you as you hold up the skulls of the wretched little dwarves. 'Excellent work, Nilbog. Here is your reward as promised. A piece of prize armor crafted for war.'
[Mon Dec 24 14:59:53 2012] Your faction standing with Kromrif got better.
[Mon Dec 24 14:59:53 2012] Your faction standing with Kromzek got better.
[Mon Dec 24 14:59:53 2012] Your faction standing with Coldain could not possibly get any worse.
[Mon Dec 24 14:59:53 2012] Your faction standing with Claws of Veeshan got worse.
[Mon Dec 24 14:59:53 2012] You gain experience!!

No noticable exp gain or faction gain. Received Giant Scalemail Leggings.

Kael - Bvellos Bounty.

Turned in a single Coldain head.

[Mon Dec 24 15:01:18 2012] You say, 'Hail, Captain Bvellos'
[Mon Dec 24 15:01:18 2012] Captain Bvellos says 'Greetings, Nilbog. I am the captain of the Kael militia. I will be watching those of your kind who have come to Kael Drakkel as mercenaries and bounty hunters. You may have come here to serve king Tormax but Kael is my home and I intend to keep it a safe place for the Kromzek. Keep yourself out of trouble or you will end up in a world of pain.'
[Mon Dec 24 15:01:20 2012] Captain Bvellos regards you as an ally -- looks kind of dangerous.
[Mon Dec 24 15:01:46 2012] Captain Bvellos says 'Excellent, Nilbog. Here is the bounty as promised.'
[Mon Dec 24 15:01:46 2012] Your faction standing with Kromzek got better.
[Mon Dec 24 15:01:46 2012] Your faction standing with Kromrif got better.
[Mon Dec 24 15:01:46 2012] Your faction standing with King Tormax got better.
[Mon Dec 24 15:01:46 2012] Your faction standing with Claws of Veeshan got worse.
[Mon Dec 24 15:01:46 2012] You gain experience!!
[Mon Dec 24 15:01:47 2012] You receive 8 platinum from Captain Bvellos.

No noticable anything. Received correct text etc.

Pretty easy stuff guys.

If you're ever bored for a half hour, help us out.

[arsenalpow]

is there a server on emu that would allow me to do this stuff?

[Dragonzord]

maybe something to do, i guess just goto allah and look up velious quest and test on live? has anyone compiled of all velious quests? yes i know i can just allah it but might as well ask

[nilbog]

Pretty much, p99 is the only emu concerned with the accuracy of anything within the first few expansions. Not to say other servers strive to be inaccurate, or don't do a good job, but we focus primarily on classic content.

You will not find an emulated source for this information.

I logged on eqlive with my original character, beat down some dwarves, and ran over to Kael.

The most comprehensive zone I've completed that includes quest givers is Kael.

So I looked up Kael quests.
http://everquest.allakhazam.com/db/q....html?zone=115

If the correct dialogue and specifics do not exist on allakhazam, there is a very strong possibility they don't exist on eqemu.

For Bvellos Bounty, the allakhazam page states:

In exchange for a Coldain Head, you receive a few platinum pieces and a substantial faction increase with King Tormax. (Note: An easy way to test your faction standing with King Tormax is to exit the bank and turn hard left. Before you get to the Icy Bridge, stop and con Dlammaz Stormslayer who is across the bridge and to the left.)

(turn-in dialogue here?)

Your faction standing with Kromzek got better.
Your faction standing with Kromrif got better.
Your faction standing with King Tormax got better.
Your faction standing with Claws of Veeshan got worse.
You gain experience!!

Now I have...

[Mon Dec 24 15:01:46 2012] Captain Bvellos says 'Excellent, Nilbog. Here is the bounty as promised.'
[Mon Dec 24 15:01:46 2012] Your faction standing with Kromzek got better.
[Mon Dec 24 15:01:46 2012] Your faction standing with Kromrif got better.
[Mon Dec 24 15:01:46 2012] Your faction standing with King Tormax got better.
[Mon Dec 24 15:01:46 2012] Your faction standing with Claws of Veeshan got worse.
[Mon Dec 24 15:01:46 2012] You gain experience!!
[Mon Dec 24 15:01:47 2012] You receive 8 platinum from Captain Bvellos.

I need to collect 10 or so more Coldain Heads and turn them in to determine the range of platinum reward. Likely, it isn't 8 every time. Maybe it should be between 2 and 10. I would write..

my $pp = int(rand(8)+2);
quest::givecash(0,0,0,$pp);

And that's that.

Are the quest list on the front page still up to date regarding whats missing?
