Quarm was resurrected, but now it is in Luclin.

No body is losing a single thing tho.

Aside from wasting your life playing on a Luclin/PoP server. Just that little thing.

One could say same thing about playing on a server that once you hit max lvl there is nothing but toxic raid environment. Forever stuck in Velious. People can enjoy multiple or different things. Its not all or nothing.

To each their own.

Once you're bored of raiding, there's Solo/Duo/Trio challenges to do! Contribute any Velious related info you have here, so we can get all the MOBs into the most accurate tiers - https://www.project1999.com/forums/s...d.php?t=442002. I'll also start a thread for Kunark/Classic content in a bit. Also, play on Red server to avoid the rat race of Green/Blue - much faster exp (with better rewards for grouping) and content is more open.

That said, there's no amazing server to play on. All are flawed, because none are trying to build on what classic Everquest is supposed to be - a dynamic MMORPG. But at least with classic era emulation, it shows some of the pieces of how the game should be. It's worth playing, for awhile, for nostalgia or reference purposes. Whereas Luclin/PoP destroy the game world and look ugly and artificial. Just ick. It's brainrot and represents the evil, inhuman corporatization of the MMORPG genre. Don't support that!

and guess what, PQ is now the same on safe long-term viability as P99. P99 no longer has the monopoly of having an agreement to run the emu server. They just had to remove the custom content which is like 5% or less honestly. Things that people played on PQ for, are still there. Guild/PVP instances, bottleneck reduction, NG+, S/SF/HC modes are all still in game. Still allowed to have zeal.

Quarm was never intended to be what it's now forced to be. It lost its future in the agreement. Not only that, but knowing that so many things can never happen will demoralize the server.

NG+/S/SF/HC aren't much of a draw since they aren't fleshed out and don't offer you anything that you can't impose on yourself (and now they can never). It's basically just loot pinata TAKP without multiboxing now.

It'll be interesting to see how it shakes out 6-9 months after it finally updates to planes of power, since I always felt a large contributor to its population was slow rolling classic->velious.

You seem to have zero idea what Quarm was supposed to be. The added races and one or two instances that are going away, was never what Quarm was about. They were just extra on top added after the server had been going.

I agree the ng s/sf/hc stuff isn't a main draw, it's just added content to what's already there for those who want. It's not intrusive (for the most part) and great for those who want to engage with it, while if you dont it's easy to ignore.

You say its draw was classic-velious, while most of the time I've heard people say they haven't started is because they have done that already on P99. They were waiting for luclin/pop to play for something new.

Well, maybe I was mistaken to think Secrets' own idea of what it was supposed to be held more weight than yours.

Some people may have liked the idea of the custom content, but to be honest, myself and most of the people I play with on PQ don't care at all about Secrets' bullshit wastes of time on non-classic features. I made a char on Quarm just to revisit Luclin and PoP again without going dumpster diving on TLPs. I'm HAPPY that DBG told Secrets to remove the custom shit she was building, I find it annoying and detrimental to the experience.

Honestly, I look forward to not having people yelling for stupid inane changes 24/7 now. Also I started, and everyone that I've played with, started for basically the same reasons. A eq server that goes to pop, that doesn't allow bots or boxing. The guild instances and other stuff it has now just made it awesome for those of us that don't care if other people get loot. To me, if everyone has half bis after a couple months, that is more than fine. I don't base my own self-worth off of exclusive pixels. I just want to have fun with people while killing things and getting upgrades on occasion.

Cope more but PQ has all that p99 and more. Granted, some people dont want "more", and that is fine. For those that do PQ is another great safe home when its back up alongside p99 now. With more PvP on it, despite being a pve server, than all of red.

Why are you so sensitive? Who writes "cope more" in response to someone wondering if characters will be lost and saying that sucks for the people playing them? How is that even an applicable response? What a weirdo lol

PQ signed a legal agreement with Daybreak to operate? Did that just happen?
