The retarded scum managed 1 GM awarded sleeper key despite destroying all the classic content they said was the problem. One since Velious launch, which should be 0.
Pop is under 500 on a Saturday with the warders still up.
Some of the worst mismanagement via corruption I've ever seen.
They refuse to make the radius of light items classic or implement stamina drain and those mechanics after a decade. Stamina was in, then removed due to corrupt donors whining. This project's over and failed, I tried.

Getting that itch again. A lightning storm damaged "something" in my box months ago, which leads to random but brief internet drops on my desktop which kept me away.
But I think I got enough $$ out of this old desktop and its about time for a new one. Old dino like me just likes to take it ez in the old zones. Yall can have that ultra raid shit.

If you can stomach Planes of Power and boxing, just go to TAKP.
Shit's more 'classic' than P99 mechanically, and the exp formula from that era means you can be a person's 4th in a 3box and they get more experience anyways.

Definitely anyone that hasn't tried it and still has an itch for Classic EQ should at least give it a shot. Really strong community despite being a 3-box server.
Hobart bungled the exp group bonus code when he tried to implement the late Ykesha era group bonus on Al'Kabor around 1-2 years after the server launched. The massive bonus starting at 4+ group members is simply an implementation error on his part, not some era accurate feature. That is why I wanted to correct it but was very outvoted because everybody wants easy mode.
The correct early Planes of Power era experience logic is +2/6/10/14/20% and the correct bonus logic after June 2003 is +20% per extra member with the 6th being 'free'. When Sony increased the group exp bonus in June 2003, they also reduced the PoP zone ZEMs to compensate. AK and TAKP had/have the higher ZEMs, so experience gains on AK and TAKP were/are highly inflated compared to the era.

I mean, you're checking at like 4am which isn't really accurate. They're still getting like 700ish at prime time and plat is still worth 10$ per 1k. I don't play it anymore, I just sell stuff for friends on ectunnel.com. As cancer as the server is, it's not going anywhere anytime soon.

I just started up on Green as an ogre Shaman. I see there is a FoH guild. Anybody on the forums in it?

Lumi was doing well with selling plat, he might know more. I've cut ties over corruption and lack of interest in making a truly classic server. They've done the opposite in fact in many cases and been quite underhanded about rooting dragons etc (said they wouldn't then did, over donations).

The p99 experience was pretty enjoyable. Definitely scratched any itch I had regarding the good ole days as it were. Then I found myself on a fully geared Necro with ss wyvern shoulders, fashion quest tunic to boot for my chanter, waiting for my roll on skargus in droga, poop socking CT and tov, bound in pom etc and finally noped out. Might return someday to rule dmoo on green on my chanter ptah. Don't get your hopes up though.
