But yeah, there are some powerful items that are available there that I believe are not classic.
That's not too far off from other items that are in classic with similar stats, honestly.

Crude Stein in Oggok is definitely out of whack, same with Testament of Vanear, Paw of Opolla, etc

yeah exactly, and those are some of the most famous items in the game, and somehow this amazing priest mana/mr number skirted by under the radar?

I don't think so Tim. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Neclo in Qeynos Hills quest should give elemental armor spell until january 20th 2000.

Tumpy from the Tumpy's Tonic quest was removed for a short time before eventually nerfing the quest to give no exp.

Prior to April 2000, wolf form made you non KoS to most mobs in the game. Also this is apparently same time Tumpy's Tonics was nerfed completly.

Manatone works in the planes until the jan 20th 2000 patch also.

December 2nd 1999 stealth patch, dwarf NPCs now have negative faction hits with Kaladim Guards. This is currently not in on blue either.

Wowwwwww That right there is exactly why I play project1999 so that I can learn about things like this. Wow. This NPC is in and the quest does work, however obviously the scroll was patched out. I would say that this quest would be an excellent addition to green99 as it is comparable in reward to other quests, despite it being totally OP also in its obscurity, teaching players about this stuff by rewarding them with the ability to get some plat from it for learning it is exactly what I think classic Everquest should be all about! Bravo good find WOW!!!

There is a quest thats starts in S. Qeynos by asking Daenor "Who is Neclo".
He tells you he's an old friend of his and gives you a note to give to Neclo
in Qeynos Hills. When you give the note to Neclo, he gives you a few faction
adjustments, plus an Elemental Armor scroll.

Additional Facts:

1) Elemental Armor is a Level 44 Spell used by Magicians and Wizards and
sells back to the store for 3 to 4 platinum depending on faction and
charisma.

Amazing I never new about this quest. it can't be a coincidence that the reward is the spell that is needed to research the summoned heatstone spell. I always assumed they meant to use the more appropriate level 20 Elemental Shield spell and never bothered to correct it.

haha Yeah I am glad it was discovered, thanks p99.

I just ran it to see how fast you could repeat the quest and it is a complete 6 minuet round trip that's 35 plat an hour with nothing that could slow you down.

The time from launch to that patch is 7440 hours and if you ran that quest exclusively like a bot it would net you approx 260,400‬ Platinum lol

I am glad to have the knowledge of this power but none should wield it on green. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

This is not a complaint, I just was wondering about the "meta" of P99 Green. If the meta is to capture what actually happened on Live EQ, this quest should be included. There are many items like manastone that were nerfed because they were OP. But those OP items are being included in P99 Green because they are part of the original timeline of Live EQ. If we include OP items, we should also include OP quests. This is to be consistent. IMHO, the meta should be recreating the historical EQ experience, including the OP items AND quests that were nerfed later.

What do you all think?

This is just a crapost but I just noticed the green announcement came in on a historic patch date, where a lot of big changes in live happened!

I nominate Sept 13th as an official Everquest Holiday!
