Title: Venture Into Darkness: Thule Dream & Hills of Shade Await
Post by: Linamas on June 29, 2025, 06:55:18 pm
Step beyond the boundaries of reality and into realms where nightmares take form and time itself bends to malevolent will. Two of EZ Server's challenging Halloween (Holiday) zones await those souls brave enough to face ultimate terror.

Thule Dream (you may recall this as Fear Itself) will plunge you into the twisted domain of Cazic Thule, a place where the very fabric of reality frays and your mortal nightmares manifest. Not for the faint of heart, this level 79 required zone offers mechanics never before seen on EZ Server, ensuring that your nightmares never stagnate, that your challenge never wanes. Face legendary nightmares including Cazic Thule, the dreaded Dracoliche, and the fearsome Denizens of Fear. Powerful class-specific quest rewards await, along with a currency system built of the very nature of your dreams, and nostalgic boss encounters for the (un)lucky. The air is thick with dread that will test even the strongest dreamers as they navigate through swirling mists of despair.

Don't feel ashamed if the Fear of Fear Itself holds you back.  There's no sun in the Hills of Shade, where the very fabric of time is ripped open, presenting adventurers level 72 and higher a twisting, turning debacle where darkness has consumed the land through ancient rifts. Collecting six mystical keystones by conquering chain bosses that can spawn from the very corpses of your enemies. Your ultimate goal: face Magorian World Devourer, whose defeat unlocks treasure beyond imagination. Gamble with Foxy Fox, trade with weapon masters, and claim powerful artifacts including double and triple loot instance tokens.

Both zones feature unique, time sensitive quest systems, vendors, and loot tables filled with game-changing equipment. From the Brain of Cazic Thule to Innoruuk's Dissimulation, these realms hold treasures that will transform your character's power.

Are you ready to confront your deepest fears and challenge time itself? The darkness awaits those bold enough to enter.  It's not called EZ Server because it's easy.  It's called EZ Server becasuse of the Extended Zones of Nightmare and Terror!  Do you have what it takes?

I had some people ask for links to the UI that I'm using.  If you're running a "modern" version of MQ ("MQNext"), then you can use /lua scripts to enhance some of your visuals!

For peer/bot management, I use https://github.com/andude2/EZBots, which is a lua script that you'll need to run on all your toons.  This wil give you a nice visual of all your characters, and is customizable for your tastes/preferences.

For hotbuttons, I use https://github.com/DerpleMQ2/buttonmaster, which lets you build basically an infinite number of hot buttons, that you can customize as much as you want.  For example, you can have 1 hotbutton that will either mount, or dismount, depending on the context.  (If you're mounted, it dismounts, if you're not mounted, it mounts!)

For Buffs, I use https://github.com/brainiac/Alphabuff, which gives you a nice sortable list of buffs!

For inventory management, https://github.com/andude2/EZInventory. which takes a moment to load up, but once running you'll never notice in the background.  It'll run on all peers, and you can see/track their inventory accordingly.
