There's 3 EQpvp servers left, Devnoob image don't make shit, voidd doesn't do shit his last vztz was just standard roz lol. Red is locked Velious with broken yet classic cheese.

Rot is Kunark which is good, I mean ROT is prob the best you can hope for currently, but how many versions have their been. It'll die like the rest and need to be reborn to get those grinders back in. Maybe not this time though, maybe not the 20th time. They might lose a few each version.

I'm just skipping to end stage ROT, during classic, and trying to build it up from the ground. That or if I did revert it to very classic levelling structure it would have to be like Red99 a permanent kind of long standing reputable box. It'll be hard to sell people for that. It's why I don't play ROT it'll be wiped, the box is boring, pvps scarce.

Try something new, guild vs guild PVP for YT/Leaderboard/Bragging rights/nostalgia.

What do u have to lose, nada.

I wish I could go back in time and give stasis more compliments so that he wouldn't feel like he still has something to prove 25 years after the game released
ppl with something to prove are the future of EQEMU

I'd rather have a Stasis than a secrets

Funny story I played with Secrets and we were doing Crushbone, I honestly can't remember which box I think VZTZ.

Yeah were better than him.

For the people who say the grind is part of EQ and character building etc, once we have teams, everything working perfect, content working good, built up a community.

I would consider a one time release of classic classic. Which would never reset, permanent classic.

That being said, it will just end up where the box is now. Until more testing/people/data is available I can't even consider it.

Ultimately you're just kicking the problems down the road, for people who might not stick around for PVP anyways and just enjoy PVE with some thrills.

TLDR - Some day a classic classic box might work, but it would take a year or two of testing/community building/earning the confidence of the community etc.

Not anytime soon lol.

In Secrets defense he hasn't released a PVP box that I can judge, I just meant like a better player/better grasp of Everquest.

I think a lot of the people on Red would feel that way if they played end game EQ with some of these devs. They just can't put it into a physical thing.

Since sunday we upped our max zones to 100, I ended up on Dynamic zones that expire after 20 mins of being empty, maybe exploitable for group loot (instead of clearing mob you want, zone out wait 20 mins, zone in) but it's almost the same time to kill, and I'd prefer to just keep things running smoother for PVP in the zones people are occupying. Most group loot is irrelevant, and dynamic zones don't respawn anything, so it won't mess with raid targets.

Adjusted Naggy/Vox to 7 days. Congrats Birdops crew first vox, first hate minis. Inny is 2.0 I'm not sure if they downed him yet, Fear is 2.0 so Golems have the weapons on them etc. I may monkey around a bit eventually adjusting CT slowly. Draco is godly with 400k hp or something too so everything needs fine tuning.

Had to make a virtual ZL for Soltemple.

Fixed Sky, added static Thunder Spirit Princess to island 1, when killed she spawns Sirran, the lesser faeries have key parts, island 2 azaracks have key parts, spawns boss azarack and then sirran, tested 3 when Gorgalosk is killed, spawns Sirran, that's as far as I've gotten - needs further testing. Key to dojorn is free.

Still have Inny/Golems/Phinny for server firsts =D

Adjusted hit box up a bit to .5, holding it there for now don't want it too tedious and impossible with any sort of lag. What else we do oh yeah enabled HP mobs to be spawned in ROF2, was just a setting.

Think that's about it so far. Will keep yall posted.

I had an idea where I could do things backwards, like if someone wants to do the classic Journey I can set their level to 1 and maybe like If you do it the hard way I'll make it like Red exp 50% or 75%?

If you do the journey I will have a custom title for you, or you may pick your own title? Maybe more will join you, or you can leave your character at certain spots/levels? If you really enjoy mistmoore griefing etc. Maybe people will choose to do the journey.

That may be a suggestion for ROT too honestly, people at max level want to restart? Ultra twinks I guess though lol. It's tougher with Kunark maybe.

I have to think on this rubbing my chin for some more time. Custom ? yes, but not really altering mechanics - when I think of custom it's like. I removed fucking Selo's bitch what. That's custom. One custom feature on my box. I don't mean free pumice is custom, farming seafuries then buying pumice etc, it's not really a custom change to the end result of PVP.
