One major issue is that with custom content you don't have to worry as much about bugging out existing content.

I always thought revamping Kerra Isle and populating it with kick-ass Vah Shir would be neat, and could be the intro of a new player race with the Vah Shir being a new warrior caste spontaneously arising from the Kerrans. Events like new high level mobs in Toxx attemping to invade Erudin etc. makes for something like the ring war as well. Stick a zoneline to a post-Velious zone in Kerra and put a boss mob in there... Similar with Guk and the Frogloks, etc. It would be a cool way to introduce the new races with new factions etc.

Regards,
Mg

Unbelievable

You guys have not EVEN entered velious and you folks are already screaming for another expansion /custom content.


Can you neckbeards and no life folks who SOL existence is this game calm down and not panic because your world is coming to an end.

How could you miss the Spectre tower in Oasis? For the loooooongest time everyone thought that would be a portal/access to some zone, never ended up as such. I always hoped it would :/
It was used in Omens of War for the Rogue Epic 1.5. Was a portal to s special Hate zone where Innoruuk had to die.

No one is screaming about anything. Just curious and brainstorming since the GMs have not announced anything else(Velious was a key point on the server so its great it is here) and there is constantly a thread on Luclin.(so it seems only been back on the forum about 2 weeks)

This was just a chance to use imagination something that is sorely challenging for some here.

Oh and while I physically do have a beard atm I havent been a neckbeard for a while. But boy is it a nice red one which btw I think means I have no soul but I havent consulted Southpark lately.

Edit: hmm I actually like some of your posts Buellen though I didnt like all of Raymond Feist's books after a point Pug just became rediculously overpowered imo. Some of the spin off books left a little to be desired but all in all he was a good author. I too think Nil and the other Devs did an amazing job on this server and it is great Velious is here. I miss that part of early EQ. But again that aside this was just a chance to give someone something else to read and post on other than another Luclin thread. Thanks for your input.

As long as it doesn't turn P99 into The Hidden Forest I think we can all be hopeful of whatever comes [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Just release Luclin and PoP. Best expansions of EQ.
  • Brought class balance to game
  • Added tons of convenience. Know those multiple chat windows, item linking and percentages shown in your UI. You can thank Luclin for that.
  • Added some of EQ's best quests. Sigil Earring of Veracity, VT key, Aid Grimel, Secrets of the Planes, Power of the Elements just to name a few.
  • Raids became more interesting with all the mechanics introduced. Ones like Emperor Ssra, Shei Vinitras, Creator, LIS, Rallos Zek, All the Elemental Gods, Plane of Time! Also due to the massive amount of content no single guild is locking it all down.
  • Tradeskills became relevant. You could actually turn on a profit on all of them, not just JC/Alchemy... Maybe cultural armor for some races.
  • AAs added value to play your max level character and didn't make you feel like your exp was wasted (plus it balanced classes as mentioned above)

Talking of custom content, this is the THF world map - which some might find interesting or funny, or both ! Have broken it down to forum picture friendly chunks below but click the link to see it as an all in one...

Some interesting neighbouring zones eh?

...so in short, be careful what you wish for with custom content [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I can't imagine how tedious and time consuming programming custom content would be. Wouldn't it be much easier to, say, skip SoL, and add a customized version of PoP?
