In order to recreate all classic spell effects as accurately and thoroughly as possible, I need a few screenshots to reference. Please make sure they're from the 1999-2001 era, before Luclin.


1) Dragon and Drake spell effects from any encounters where they cast unique spell effects such as fire and frost breath. Some Velious screenshots would be nice.


Thanks for your help!

Screenshots forum?

No luck finding what I need there so far. For some reason they're hard to find on the internet too.

Have you tried old archived versions of everlore.com?

I remember that being the big EQ screenshot site.

I'm really looking forward to seeing these just for the hell of it. I started in LoY, so it's nice to see authentic picture or video of the olden days.

Man... looking at those screenshots i cant help but notice the lack of epics in any of them. Even in the velious shots they are rare.

I remember, during Velious era, my guilds MT didn't even have his epics. I think I have a few old SS of us farming Kael Arena, let me see if I can find them.

went through like 800 of my old SS's and only found 4 that might be useful for spell particles lol. Frost/fire ae's on west wastes dragons + velium shards clicky from velks lab

this. harvest was the same as the druid Wind Stuns (Dizzying wind, Whirling Wind, Breath of Karana) I think right?

Harvest effect is fine! It was terribly broken and made some weird animation. Just need drakes, wyrms, etc.

I'm almost positive the fire drakes did the breath animation with particles. I don't remember wurms, but I'm thinking they did too. I don't have any screenshots of either, unfortunately :T

The wurms in great divide I think may have. Shardwurm Breath

Cast on other is lacerated and frozen by ice shards.

Although I then read it was a proc from claws. But a graphic from mouth would better match the casting description. Hope to find a video/pic

I found some other spell effects and added them to that album a few minutes ago, they're just whichever spells I could find, wasn't looking for any specifics this time. Hope they help!
