I have played in spurts over almost 10 years now.  I have been working my way through progression the same order it was released in.  Currently in ST and VP.  I have not done anything in T11 as of yet.

On the topic of Bane Weapons, I was in T7 when UW was introduced into the server.  I was 18 boxing at the time and by the time I had all the armor, spells and accessories.  I had bane weapons for my crew to kill Floating Skull and complete the tier.  I did not find any problems with needing them to kill a targeted boss.

Expeditions is something a lot of people do not look at.  Sure, the end goal of hive shards for UW things is not worth it till you can do the T10 Old Blackburrow but they do offer other things for toons within that tier.
I could see adding HoH token drops to Catacombs of Dranik being an option that might bring people to have more interest in them.  The Charm Prism Upgrades that drop and can be purchased count for both v1 or v2 charms.  I used to do them daily as it was a easier source for essences then attempting to farm bosses.  They can also be turned in for 1 hive shard each so I do not foresee their drop rate being increased.
I do not know if its possible to bring back the T5 expedition (the random boss spawns was a nice alternative from trying to get them to spawn in zone).  I know it was disabled due to an exploit but that is about it.

On the toon count, currently I have a 30 box.  Tracking who needs how much of what has been interesting but that has also caused me to dig into the macro side of EZ.  Creating the macros I have has helped a lot with item tracking and other random things that have come up.

So far I am also having the same problem of getting past the Enslaved Dragonsoul.  I decided to do the Sleeper route.  Farmed my 30 box all their T10 tokens and traded for a bunch of GSS.  I have not gone back into VP as of yet, but the Sleeper weps are about equal to UW10 and drop from everything.  I am expecting my kill speed to change drastically when I go back to VP.  During the testing weekend of the new HW zone I was 4m+ per kill in there.  I am kind of excited to see how fast I kill with the new weps.

This has happened twice now and so will keep an eye out if I do it again.  Here is the order of things as I did it and noticed.  (Edit) 3rd time I figure out what is happening.

Sunder Rock
Pulled boss Darkpaw Rellognub alone - (edit) - about 10 "a bubbling corpse" spawn somewhere and walk over to kill Darkpaw Rellognub
First set of adds spawned
Necro dots - Death 1-4 then Epidemic from main and second necro
Second set of adds

Gnolls from north camp come running to the fight (No idea why as I didnt pull them) - (Edit) - Gnolls from north camp came to assist Darkpaw Rellognub fight the "a bubbling corpse"
Get nuke by "a bubbling corpse" multiple times ranging from 800k to 4mil - (Edit) - Seems to be an AoE proc from them as I moved away and did not agro them.  "a bubbling corpse" killed Darkpaw Rellognub and the north camp Gnolls killed "a bubbling corpse".

Will see if I manage it again and edit the post. - (Edit) - Figured things out abit more.  Took screen shots since it was so weird and I managed to live this time.

So I ran into something like this a few years ago.  Here is a link to the post.  http://ezserver.online/forums/index.php?topic=5178.0

In the end I had to down clock the CPU to get the game stable.

Thanks Draca

Thanks for all of your hard work Draca.  Cant wait to get the Halloween farm on.  I need more spears lol.

Thanks to both Draca and Sarthin for hosting this even and the prizes that were given out. 

On the note of broken AA I have emailed in a list previously but I dont think there was any big impact to anything so I am guessing they were lost to the pages of time at some point.  I can either post them here or resend the email.  Not sure how much knowledge of broken things is wanted to be shared with players.

Email was Oct 2020 and went to the ezserver gmail and then to akkadius.

Thanks Draca

WoL 9.0 - shows 60k heal and looks to work from my testing.  It does not feel like it gets any bonuses from +healing.  I was never able to get any healing numbers to show up in a chat window to really be able to tell though.


Something else I was looking at is the Warrior's Way (Worn) - I do not know if this is be design but it does not look like Pal and SK are able to trigger the Blood of the Fallen effect.  The worn is on the T8 and T9 CP for both Pal and SK.

Built out the T9 pattern and armor list to be added.

Under the EZ Server Tools on the left the Spell Recipes link has the combines for the different spells and yes it is for the custom ones.  Some are not craftable right not but that is in the higher tiers.

Its an alternative to trying to farm the 1 spell you want.  It was a big project at the time and was a great addition.

It's not a crash it is the server ratelimit on packages sent to client.

You need to enable ServerFilter=1 in your eqclient.ini and then remove as many filters in your alt-o settings ingame.

That will stop the dc to char server

This made a improvement for me.  Anyone else got more suggestions lol.

Edit - One difference I have noticed with ZP this time around is that things are more of teleporting to me and not pathing so this could be part of why I am getting the packet overload and DCing that I did not have before

Not sure of what has changed to cause this but I have run into a problem of when I ZP TOFS my war will crash to the char screen.  I was starting to think it was the partials and how fast things get to me but I feel like its something else causing this on my end.  I have not made any client changes.  I did go though and do drive updates to try and figure this one out but no changes there.  Does not matter if I have 2 or 18 online only my war will drop.  Used to ZP without problems so taking suggests of what I can try to get this to clear.
