Its time for copy of a classic Sullon Zek server!

Nope, I meant Wood Elf. They can be Rallos and that was on the evil faction.

The... they could? How did I go years without ever knowing this? [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

At server startup this was true. It was later patched out though.

SZ was the f---ing bomb, I was there from day 1. I joined <Hate> at level 30, when it was still very new, and was present from our first PoH and PoF raids up through the start of PoP.

Fuck, I remember the low levels so well: getting backstabbed at lvl 12 by a lvl 30 rogue while medding in WC; frosthound, teh Molie, and the rest of the goodies in FV ganking you while you fight sarnaks in LOIO; level 50 druids hovering over the lava in lavastorm waiting for people to zone out of SolB and DoTing you to death...

And the high levels: charm burning wars in WW; AEing in Sebilis whenever I wanted (assuming you could get past the MQ users on the way there ... "Tracking" my ass); train wars with Vindictive (zone into plane of nightmares, /shout Anyone grouped with a Vindictive is about to die, proceed to find and train people)...

I just wish I had been in my 20s and not 16 when playing. Having to /q during raids at 2am because dad wakes up is not fun, especially as a cleric :-x .

Red is almost entirely custom, custom EverQuest is an agent of Satan

I played there from day 1 (beta also) for the first couple of months before RL made me stop gaming for a while. So, yeah.

[mtb tripper]

its good stuff

[a_desert_madman_01]

Sounds good. I wanted to go Red, but the distinct lack of population is disheartening.

I loved playing on SZ, but I honestly don't think I could muster the patience and dedication it took to survive on that server a second time. I don't think it'd be the same anyway.

Some of the great stories that came from SZ can't or won't be reproduced. The corpse camping of Ruin and the guildwar between Hate and Vindictive (also, the less remembered guildwar between Nine and Infeste Nex that provided plenty of comic relief) come to mind.

Still, the constant training and ability for 1-2 people to keep an entire faction from raiding was kinda dumb.
