    Classic EQ!



    This is gnome invasion?!

    So much fun. And it's free.

    Best thing out there (as far as I can tell) until eqclassic.org releases their client.

    CKV_EQ
    We are a Classic / Kunark / Velious server with the goal to be as close to live as possible. Old world graphics are forced and there is no quick travel or bonus xp.

    Re: Classic EQ!

    Jimmy's Powerleveling Guide:

    1) Zone into Unrest at lvl 10

    2) Pull train

    3) Run from train

    4) Stop at zoneline and turn to see if train is still there

    5) Die from train

    have not touched this game since 2001 but, my fav. train pulls were at mistmoore when lvl 50's thought they can solo the castle and decided to bring the cluster f of monsters along with em to the start of the zone and all the lowbie bodies would just drop and the internet e-peen fights came shortly after the pwnage. Jboots were a son of a bitch to camp.. too many hours sitting there waiting.

    Re: Classic EQ!

    Yeah, that's the beauty of this server (and eqclassic in the future).. it's supposed to capture what the game was like from 1999-2001.

    I was just talking last night about the spectres in Oasis, when ppl in their 40s and 50s would train all of them to the docks. Tons of level 10-25+ corpses everywhere that would just drop like flies. I'm sure you remember, but what made it even better is that undead mobs had a tendency to aggro whatever was in their path. It was always such a giant clusterfuck in that spot.. and for some reason people would still hang out there anyway (mostly giving and receiving buffs).

    Cazel could be pretty fucking brutal too.

    omfg i can't even remember how many times i died because of the spectre trains on the coastline at oasis, i would go afk for like 5 mins to take a piss and wham i'm dead and the much exp loss for each death made me want to punch my own face.

    Old spell effects!

    http://www.eqemulator.net/forums/showthread.php?t=21869

    OK i gigured it out now how to get CLASSIC SPELLS

    Just get rid of these files in your EverQuest Folder as following.

    SpellEffects Folder - gequip5.s3d - global6_chr.s3d - spellsnew.edd - spellsnew.eff

    Put those files into a backup folder also the spelleffects folder so nothing of above listed is inside EverQuest folder.

    And there you go old spell graphic back!!!
    Edit: It works, but...

    gequip5.s3d - global6_chr.s3d <-- leave those two alone. Don't delete/move them. If you do, weapons and shit won't display properly.

    Kinda confusing the way the above is worded. All you have to do is delete:

    "spellsnew.edd" and "spellsnew.eff" in the main EverQuest folder. That's it. Leave the '../SpellEffects' folder alone. Works great. Looks awesome too.

    Re-Edit: The only flaw I can see is that the casters' hands don't glow while the spell is casting (i.e. blue effects coming from a clerics' hands as a heal is being cast). Wish there was a way to fix that. Otherwise it's great.

    Wish I had seen this sooner.

    Apparently this will backpatch you from EQLive back to Titanium, which is what's needed to play on this server. Awesome.

    It was temporary downtime while he was playing with spell vendors.

    I think Jenco will be fine. He seems fair overall.. I think he's just had a lot of bullshit to deal with the past couple days.

    PEQ Grand Creation looks decent, but it's not quite "classic", no?

    Re: Classic EQ!

    it looks to have more expansions, but it doesn't matter if you don't go to them ... seems it has a steady player base.. i was able to group all day with same guys and get from level 6 to level 25... there is a exp modifier combined with lack of downtime because you could peqzone to train skills/etc.

    they enabled a special version of the /zone command called #peqzone <zonename> which works on most zones with some exceptions to prevent overuse/exploiting.

    it's pretty grand, ill play it until eq classic is out. huzzah!

    Re: Classic EQ!

    Sounds awesome... but...!

    It's not what we were looking for. =)

    What we missed was the thrill and fear of dying.. corpse runs and camping the cleric!!
    Making you try harder to succeed.. Live took 99% of that thrill away.
    Now if you can just insta-zone back to the zone you died in.. well.. that kind of takes that out.

    As far as the leveling.. back in the day when you saw a lvl 50 you respected them because you know they earned it the hard way.
    Hell levels and slow grinds in the same spots.. long corpse runs.. help from higher levels to get your body back..
    Exp modifiers remove that for us as well.. We miss feeling the accomplishment when you "ding".

    Hopefully we'll see you around when Classic is released though!! =)

    Yeah, it's a free server. The population is like 30ish players online at its peak.

    Site for Tallon Vallon Zek:
    http://www.pwnedemu.com/

    It's pretty much Classic EQ (L50 cap.. Kunark is coming sometime soon, apparently) with PVP.

    If anyone else wants to check it out, turns out you can get the full EQEmu client here:
