Removed Kunark Quests

[Uthgaard]

So I've been working on Kunark quests lately, and cross checking all items to make sure I didn't miss any. When looking at the Gem of Yet to Come, I found this old quest that was removed.

http://everquest.allakhazam.com/db/quest.html?quest=189

In many cases, the items and quest text no longer exist at all, and need to be recreated.

So I figured I'd see if anyone could think of any other quests that existed at launch, but were removed.

I remember alot of good gear dropped off trash mobs int he forst couple days and then they took it all back! Bastids.

no, I don't proof read anything before I post it. Reading is for suckers

Nice find!

I'm thinking removed quests will be much harder to track down than removed drops (since the items themselves still exist). I guess the best place to start looking is for lists of broken quests from the Kunark era. I'm having trouble even finding that.

Awesome site Sivle.
I think it's freaking awesome that even after 10 years there are still some mysteries in EQ.

Well some of those mysteries are because Verant/SOE never properly implemented a shit ton of quests. The devs liked to tout their statistic that only like 10% of the quests have been discovered/completed, but they never stopped to think that the quests were not discoverable or completable.

Added that site to my research bookmark folder. Very handy, thanks.

Good find, but that bright green screen after 5mins almost made me blind.

I'm pretty sure that was never a real quest, or perhaps one from beta that was removed on live. I was very big into Iksars and their quests early kunark and although I remember reading it on allakhazam, I never got the text nor saw anything in live substantiating it.

Further, there's no listing of the skeleton key on lucy, even tho other early (removed) items do still exist in the DB (such as Venril's Phylactery).

Speaking of which, that is one Kunark quest that was either removed or never fully implemented. Drussila dropped Venril's Phylactery, which supposedly when handed to him removed his lifetap proc (I can't verify if it worked or if that's what the quest actually did, but that was the rumor)

[Uthgaard]

There are a lot of Kunark items that have been removed from the DB. I've added about 10 back in the last month, that are confirmed to have existed, even had the old itemIDs.

Im curious if you guys have all the info on the original cleric epic quest and the original Ragefire spawn in Naggy's room, I don't think it was changed till Luclin (maybe velious? It'd be in patch notes noting Zordicus Ragefire becoming a spawned mob in Skyfire)

I did the old camp on my cleric and felt ousted when they changed it..Half the challenge as a 52+ clr was getting a raid formed to kill Naggy so you could lay claim to the camp, tho this caused alot of server drama and ALOT of clerics to quit, it was a big part of why a cleric felt so accomplished at end of his epic quest.
