    Everquest TLP - Aradune and Rizlona Servers (Now with real customer service)

    Funny note, the queue was created in one day by Jchan who is now the lead producer of EQ. She did it back when Ragefire was having overpopulation issues.

    Back in like 2016 Holly worked out a deal with EQMule to ensure that versions of MQ2 which originate from him wouldn't work on Truebox servers. So the kind of MQ2 99% of people use just won't operate on them. If you're someone who just NEEDS to cheat though you can create (or acquire) a bespoke...

    Yeah, seeing Rizlona makes me appreciate truebox because it makes it so clear how well they were able to contain MQ2. On most servers I’ve seen a handful of people with a working compile, but Riz shows how crazy it would be if they didn’t try to block it at all. Watch, someone will probably go...

    You can always play on Rizlona if you enjoy bots and macroquest. If you want a good laugh log in and go to Qeynos docks. 24/7 scripted crews running back and forth doing the bard quests for cash.

    Once you click okay you are able to just wait. It won’t time you out of the server select screen unless Aradune crashes or login servers go down. I am not sure if clicking okay makes it take longer or not. I have heard conflicting theories.

    It's hard to say, I feel like Rampage and That's EQ Baby will both have the numbers to start raids 24 hours from now. The leveling is going really fast on these servers.

    Na, he will probably die on Rizlona soon though. I’d guess another day or two on Aradune at least.

    Everquest TLP - Aradune and Rizlona Servers (Now with real customer service)

    This part really fucked us. We had multiple times where we'd have a person crash while zoning and take 2-4 hours to get back in. When we zoned into Solb we lost half the group and had to 3 man kobolds for several hours like idiots. We originally planned to do 31-41 in Lguk but when we hit the...

    I think it might not count time spent zoning etc for "play" time whereas session time is your total time logged in. Just played on Aradune to grind to 50 w/some friends. Now that we're all done, time to close the book.

    Alright below is some stuff to assist folks messing around on Aradune and Rizlona. It ranges from exploits to tips and tricks. Some of you will know a lot of it already. Also included is a list of actual ZEMs we have right now. Don’t believe the rumors about them “flattening” ZEMs. Final note...

    FWIW the top live guild is the original top TLP guild. Once they reached live they’ve been the first guild to clear basically (maybe literally?) every expansion since.

    I miss when LD characters became NPC killing machines that ran around zones killing everything until the server finally DC’d them.

    The first few TLPs we didn't have pickzones and it was fine. The big issue was newbie zone content because you have thousands of players packing into like 5 zones all at once. They did picks just for those at first (North Qeynos, WFP, Nektulous etc) and it worked very well. Slippery slope...

    TLP raids are far harder than P99 raids, that's for sure. Classic TLP raid buffs: 1. Mobs have 4x the HP of original classic. This is closer to Velious mob HP than it is to original classic. 2. They mitigate 60% of all incoming damage (This is calculated after AC etc). 3. Being within like 200...

    I think the first group on Aradune will hit 50 in about 44-50 hours played. I'd bet krono that Plane of Fear is not open on Aradune on Saturday at 2pm EST.

    Honestly the 40 slot 100% WR bag is the single most worthwhile purchase you'll ever make on a TLP. I think $20 is cheaper than normal too, so I'd def purchase it for your cleric at least.

    I once guild removed an Enchanter when we killed his charm pet and found two of these on his mob during a Vox raid.

    Varies wildly depending on what pet you use but generally charm pets are about 3-4x the DPS of a Mage pet from an equivalent level Mage. There are some leet charm mobs that are far better than that but they tend to get nerfed when discovered by more than a few people.

    This was one of the unfinished Kunark quests which developers were able to fix and fully implement on servers. I think they did it back in like 2017.

    This isn't caused by boxing at all, it's a time when Harm Touch did 2,500 damage and VS had 16khp. Harm Touch was fixed like 8 years ago though, so no big deal now.

    Everquest - Live Servers

    I'm not very knowledgeable on later level Necromancers.The changes seemed good for Shaman/Druid, it's basically just making it so that you don't need to stack multiple dots from the same line, it increases the damage and thus the DPS, reduces the number of spells you need to cast / mem and...

    Everquest - Live Servers

    It's going live before the new TLP servers yes but this revamp is only like level 70+ spells so it won't impact the new servers until they do the lower level spells or until those servers reach level 70+ content (1.5 years from now). Patches occur monthly, so there is a small chance that we...

I'll also include a list of the new ZEMs and some mob HP parses for you guys. Dropping it the day of to...

    Not sure what you count as bombing but I expect Aradune to be massively popular at least through PoP. I doubt it will reach live but basically zero TLPs besides Phinny and Selo will reach live with any guilds left. There are already over ten guilds recruiting pre launch, several are “super...

    I wish solo grinding was more effective. On P99 it’s the ultimate grinding method, on TLP it’s a waste of time.

    It does matter. If you pick anything besides DE for the combo you're doing it wrong. Though if you plan to play on launch day Nektulous will be a clusterfuck. Toxxulia (Erudite) or Steamfont (Gnome) are better for a nice opening.
