Tumpy from the Tumpy's Tonic quest was removed for a short time before eventually nerfing the quest to give no exp.

Prior to April 2000, wolf form made you non KoS to most mobs in the game. Also this is apparently same time Tumpy's Tonics was nerfed completly.

December 2nd 1999 stealth patch, dwarf NPCs now have negative faction hits with Kaladim Guards. This is currently not in on blue either.

Anyone remember when the burynai bane spider proced on you it would create you a giant white elemental (i'm gonna assume it was mage epic) that would follow you around and assist your fights like an enc pet?

This is just a crapost but I just noticed the green announcement came in on a historic patch date, where a lot of big changes in live happened!

While some specifics regarding my inability to grok dates has been addressed, there is still the matter of hybrid mana pools being drastically lower than full casters, and attack swing timers resetting after a spell is cast or interrupted.

Hybrid mana pools were originally based on (level - 8) AND some spells had increased costs ~ +25% to +50% (pet summons and lifetaps for SKs come to mind, as do cleric buffs for paladins) (amounts never documented publicly to my knowledge). A couple yaulps would drain a paladins mana pool, L9 troll SKs could not summon a pet. The removal of the gimped manapool was the first big hybrid buff, it happened not too long after I got spells on my original paladin (I started playing in July of '99, so probably was August or maybe September). Not sure when they removed the mana cost penalties but think it was later.

Another minor bit:
The Druid buff Skin Like Wood did not originally have a +hp heal effect (it increased max but not current hp). This was changed prior to the existence of the Lucy parse of the spdat (so ?Kunark?Velious?) when all the Skin Like buffs had their hp/ac values changed (pretty sure they all lost some ac and gained a little hp.)

Wowwwwww That right there is exactly why I play project1999 so that I can learn about things like this. Wow. This NPC is in and the quest does work, however obviously the scroll was patched out. I would say that this quest would be an excellent addition to green99 as it is comparable in reward to other quests, despite it being totally OP also in its obscurity, teaching players about this stuff by rewarding them with the ability to get some plat from it for learning it is exactly what I think classic Everquest should be all about! Bravo good find WOW!!!

There is a quest thats starts in S. Qeynos by asking Daenor "Who is Neclo".
He tells you he's an old friend of his and gives you a note to give to Neclo
in Qeynos Hills. When you give the note to Neclo, he gives you a few faction
adjustments, plus an Elemental Armor scroll.

Additional Facts:

1) Elemental Armor is a Level 44 Spell used by Magicians and Wizards and
sells back to the store for 3 to 4 platinum depending on faction and
charisma.

Here's a question:
In what era were roots changed so that when the caster zoned they were effectively removed (actually behavior appears to be as if cast by a level 1 so most mobs break them within a tick or two)? Or is this a p99 special?

Back in the day I used to break the Paw entrance solo by rooting one mob out of agro range of the spawns at zone-in and then zone out and back to lose agro on the rest. This has never worked on p99 that I can recall (I'm guessing the change was an anti-griefer thing.) Was kinda sad when I discovered that you have to snare to break that solo when any root-capable class could do it in-era.

I am sorry to not provide information, but before I go digging around for it, it is my understanding that many, if not the vast majority of quests in Kerra Island are not classic? Was there a Kerra Island zone revamp? Did p99 already set up all that and the research is not necessary?

But yeah, there are some powerful items that are available there that I believe are not classic.

That's not too far off from other items that are in classic with similar stats, honestly.

Crude Stein in Oggok is definitely out of whack, same with Testament of Vanear, Paw of Opolla, etc
