Phantom Raiders was not a Euro guild.  Wreckers and Malus Imperium were the 2 big Euro ones.

We have spells up to GoD and our custom spells. Arcstone is from PoR, way after GoD so no spells from there.

Suppose I sould have put this in the first post:

When I was using Titanium, I used WinEQ2.  Now that I am on SoD, WinEQ2 actually slows me down.  It makes all my windows choppy, loading takes twice as long, and characters are very unstable and constantly crash.

I'm runnin 8GB DDR2 Ram with a 2.6 GHz Dual Core on Windows XP 64 bit.  I still use DirectX 9.0c with an ATI HD 5670 2GB onboard.

As I said, I've made no changes at all in hardware or software, just was curious to see if anyone has a trick or 2 about how they load to see if I could get some better results.

When I run 6 toons as once, I usually open 6 windows of EQ first.  I log into the account and choose the server, then switch and start logging into the next account.  I used to be able to do this with no problem, and all 6 toons would all be loading at the same time.  Same thing when it came to Character Select.  They would all get there at about the same time, and I just hit Enter World 1 right after the other.

Now when I try to do this, I get a lot of pauses between switching windows, and every time I do it, at least 2 of the clients crash back to login while the other 4 make it all the way into the world.  As long as I don't try to run them around or zone, they are fine.  If I try to zone one, it will never recover and I have to shutdown and restart that window from scratch.  By the time I get the other 2 accounts logged back in and all the way in the world, 20 minutes have gone by.

I've made no changes to any hardware of software on my computer, no ISP or any kind of service changes have made.  I've not tampered with any files in relation to EQ or otherwise.  Not sure WTF is goin on, which leads me to my topic statement: How do you load up?

In what order do you do things, do you do them 1 at a time all the way in, 2 at a time, do you load left to right, right to left, 1 instance at a time to char select then all the others?  Would love to magically find something that's working faster than what I am doing.  Lemme know how you roll!

Is it possible? Yes.
Will Hunter do it? No.

Here's 2 more fantastic canidates to add to the list.

It's not letting me in at all. I've tried at least 2 dozen times, tried all 3 of my clients as well as all of my accounts and I get the error on everything.  My Necro was able to get in for about 20 seconds, then got booted right before char select loaded all the way, now he can't get back in.

Not sure about on land, but corals are completely resistant to spell damage from range.  You have to be inside melee distance to hit them

AKA "Belly Caster" for anyone who ever played on Live and remembers killing some of the old dragons.  Even though your procs will not land on a Coral with your Ranger, you are still doing more damage just from white damage than you would if you melee.

If you already have a toon over the AA cap, you keep them all, but you cannot earn any more.  If you are already over the money cap, you can keep it and spend it, but you cannot gain or deposit any more.
If you have say 2 mil plat, you can move it out of the bank and can spend it, but if you try to sell an item to a vendor, or loot a mob with money on it, you will not get credit for it.
In EQ2, all AA's are refunded and you are limited by how many and which ones you can spend, all items are also un-attuned and you have to agree to either re-attune everything up front, or if you say no, you cannot use a lot of it.
You don't unlock things by just paying money, you have to purchase Station Cash, which you use to buy lower things, and buying "keys" unlocks some of the higher stuff.

The only way a trial account can be used is if you upgrade it at some point to a paid account. Anything you use on trial will not work for live until paid for.
As far as prices, I would assume they will be similar to EQ2, a new race is like $2, while a race pack of 4 is like $5. Same deal with classes. You can almost quadruple your yield if you double your money in nearly everything, content, race/class, items, char slots, bank space, inventory space ect. You are also very limited on money and spells/AA's and the only way to fully unlock those is a gold membership. Even buying q silver membership doesn't help much.

Boxing here is very simple. Paladins epic proc a group heal, turn on attack and forget about it. Warrior are pretty much the same, just autoattack. Pet classes, Mage, Necro are just /pet attack. Bst require /pet attack and autoattack. As long as you stay away from pure casters, there isn't a lot to manage till the higher tiers.
It is of course a little more involving, but certainly not undoable. A standard 3 box of Warrior, Paladin and any DPS can take you all the way to T2 with just those 3 toons.

Was on Bertox from 99 til 07. Was in Goldenhearts and Shahrazad.

If you already had a toon, it is usable. But! If you exceed the character limit, some of them will be locked. Example: if you have 5 toons on your account, the first 3 or the last 3 will be locked since the limit is 2. If your main is one of those locked ones, yer fucked an have to buy extra character slots. You do not have to pay to unlock a race or class that you already had, but you cannot make a new one unless you pay to unlock it.

There is a small bonus to exp here, but if you solo, it's still gonna take a while. Exp here is no longer X4, it got chopped way down. However, a high end toon can PL you 1 to 70 in under an hour. The game here really doesn't start untill you are 70.

Death here is no big deal. You do not lose any exp, you respawn with all your items so no CR's.

There are no guides to live content progression on this server. A lot of the old content does not work, and a lot of it is replaced with our custom content.  If you are wanting to go back through PoP, GoD or LDoN, this is not the sever for you. LDoN is only 6 zones, all custom with no missions. GoD is now only 2 zones, Qvic and Tacvi. Neither has any of the old progression, it's all custom. PoP has some of the old zones with appropriate mobs, but most script and fights don't work. PoFire, BoThunder and PoTime are all custom. PoTime works different, and none of the original gods are there.

People are willing to help a little bit, but no one is going to run you through it all. Not to be harsh, but if you want to achieve much here, you will need to box your own army. You can have some fun solo, but you won't make it far.

The in-game map has an atlas attached to it that was added to all of EverQuest, has breakdown by continent and expansion.

Edited for typos and iPod autocorrects.

It's the way lots of games are going, and will probly be the new thing for almost all MMO's. EQ2 has been F2P for awhile now, Aion went F2P in Europe and will soon follow in America. With it comes the whole pay as you play BS. If you want to enjoy it, pay the full subscription, or don't bother.
