Kunark Changes?

[eqravenprince]

Besides new zones and race, what else did Kunark change? I vaguely remember hybrid penalty went away at some point. Also, didn't leveling speed slightly increase too? Speaking of Kunark, I noticed Complete Healing is available already from merchants, is it currently useable? Since this was a Kunark spell, I would be surprised if it was in game at the moment.

1. Not sure when the hybrid experience penalty was removed, i would try to find the patch note to figure out.

2. I think leveling was faster due to zones with more/higher level mobs, maybe the ability to chain pull (Overthere anyone)? Perhaps the ZEM was higher in Kunark.

3. Complete heal is definitely a classic spell level 39 cleric spell.

Lots of old world zones get mob additions. Druids for example:

Tainted/Corrupted Hill Giant - Rathe Mountains
Tainted/Corrupted Seahorse - Kedge Keep
Tainted/Corrupted Seafury Cyclops - Ocean of Tears
Tainted/Corrupted Brownie - Lesser Faydark
Tainted/Corrupted Wooly Mammoth - Everfrost Peaks
Tainted/Corrupted Aqua Goblin - Lake Rathetear

Plus some spawned mobs in Karanas etc.

Epics added a ton of stuff to old zones.

Not the mention the mechanics changing in the post above, I think new damage calculations too.

Huh, I could have sworn complete heal was added with Kunark. My bad.

Kunark added more elbow room

[Lazortag]

Tainted/Corrupted Hill Giant - Rathe Mountains
Tainted/Corrupted Seahorse - Kedge Keep
Tainted/Corrupted Seafury Cyclops - Ocean of Tears
Tainted/Corrupted Brownie - Lesser Faydark
Tainted/Corrupted Wooly Mammoth - Everfrost Peaks
Tainted/Corrupted Aqua Goblin - Lake Rathetear

On the beta server, should I expect to see these?

[Sparkin]

No, they won't come til a later patch. Kunark patch > Hole patch > Epic patch. Those are all epic mobs.

Complete Heal was classic, but Screaming Terror was a fear spell until like a month? into Kunark, and that's always been a mez here.

It was always a mez on live, it just wasn't meant to be, all they did in Kunark was decide to leave it as a mez instead of fixing it, and changed the spell information to reflect this.


It originally was a fear, but was broken and would fear the mob while making it remain in place (appearing to be a mez)

During the kunark patches they just changed the spell info and the messages you get in game when casting it...

[Mojorisin]

Was taunt changed with the release of Kunark?

[Wildas]

Screaming terror was a replacement for charm for necros which was removed early classic. It was a fear with a chance to mem wipe for a while, but it was most certainly changed to a mez several months prior to kunark

Wrong. "Spell info" didn't even exist in Kunark.

[Mixelplix]

Wasn't the Wizard spell, Harvest introduced near Kunark?

[Grod]

Yeah I can't find old spell info anywhere. I don't remember Mages having pet healing in old school Everquest either but they have it here. I think it got added later but the ratio was originally so horrible nobody ever used it.
