Project 1999 Green/Teal Timeline

[Videri]

Lots of players have questions related to the timeline on Green/Teal, such as when the Temple of Solusek Ro and its related quests will be added, when Clarity will be added (3 months from launch), and when Kunark is coming out (which also brings us the level 16 enchanter spell Breeze).

Nilbog's original post answers almost all such questions. I hope this post will reduce the flow of such threads.

The intent of our project was always to restore the original classic experience of Everquest from launch through Velious...

Project 1999 Green is a new PVE server without any patches or expansions enabled upon release. Old-style mechanics and drops will be enabled, including legacy items such as Guise of the Deceiver and Manastone. The server will then progress through all patches on the same timeline as Everquest's original launch, all the way up to the last patch in Velious. This means that based on an October 2019 launch date, the following are a few major timeline changes:

* January 2020: Plane of Fear [Clarity will be added around this time]
* April 2020: Plane of Hate
* May 2020: Temple of Solusek Ro opens / Legacy items cease to drop
* August 2020: Plane of Sky
* November 2020: Ruins of Kunark
* April 2021: Epics
* July 2021: Scars of Velious
* The above list is not exhaustive; each month will have unlocks of patches from March 1999 to December 2001.

Green Lifetime
The green server will, at a time yet to be decided, eventually merge into blue and start over again. This merge will not happen until at least 6 months after the last patch in velious (No earlier than January 2023).

When during the timeline do the class-based exp penalties get removed?

[Coridan]

A month or two after Velious, so probably September 2021 or so. Just live with it, it isn't that bad.

Huh? I always thought that the temple of solusek ro, was accessible from day one?

I got a "rune of scale" from Oasis the other day. http://wiki.project1999.com/Runescale_Cloak_Quest

Is that a bug?

Those items should be removed pending update
