Imperium Server - Solo Level/Duo Raid
 

The Imperium Server is online now. It is an individual progression server meant for soloing to play through and 2-6 people to progress through raids.

Features:
- 100M Fiber Connection, 64G RAM
- Individual Progression
- Fast XP and AA
- Gear stat increase
- AA increases
- New NPCs, teleporter bot, merchants, augments to assist in raids, and a gambling merchant to acquire additional rare items
- Artifacts and rare items can drop from any monster (~1/200 chance).
- Raids adjusted for 2-6 players
- Bots enabled, mercenaries disabled. 6 person max raid size and group size, 2 bots maximum spawned in per person.

The server is setup for progression through raiding. In order to get into Sebilis, you must kill either Lord Nagafen, Lady Vox, or Venril Sathir. Upon their deaths, a ghost will spawn and drop keys you must turn in to the quest NPC in the guild lobby. Each tier has one or more bosses that drop keys to progress to the next tier. It is similar to how planes of power worked. Details are provided by Vinz in the guildlobby.

Raid bosses have been balanced to be able to be killed by 1-4 players. If you fight them without gearing up first, it will take 4-6. If you are geared, 1-2 with a healer bot can take most of them down. All scripts have been adjusted through planes of power to make it possible to win the fights with a few people.

Items have had stats increased across the board in a formulaic fashion. Each tier of raiding will have more and more powerful gear, required to be able to beat the next raid tier. AAs have also been added to make you more powerful.

this sounds EXACTLY like what I have been looking for!!! I cant wait to log in and check it out!!!

Is there a gate item for melee anywhere?

saw it up for a bit but disapeared

quick question: is there an IP limit on your server?

No gate item, but I lowered the throne of heroes reset time to 10 minutes, #zone is available, and there is a translocator bot in the guildlobby.

IP limit allows 2 accounts from one IP. I didnt want large box groups taking over the server, and it's tuned for a couple people to play through, at most with bots helping. It gets too easy fast with more than 4-5. I went through everything until time and tuned it with a friend to be beatable with 2 (some with added bots)

no that's cool! just making sure. was gonna try and 3 box, but its good to know that I wont have to :P

was good at first, but other than a handful of specific zones nothing is locked out progression wise. Why level properly when you can #zone to rof/ro zones and do 50-65 in 30mins?

Best of luck, but that kind of thing is no fun for me.

Screwed up on that one and didnt check the expansions flag, thought it defaulted to PoP. Fixing it right now, as well as the performance issues.

Not sure what your max level was already level 70s and people had underfoot weapons and such. So what is max content,level,etc supposed to be?

Max level is 70, content is supposed to cap out at LDON. I adjusted the expansions and got most of the zones locked out - I will go over them again tonight so next restart it should be fixed. (Right now 90% of additional zones are locked out)

I plan on expanding it later, but since I have to playtest each raid with 2 players, it takes awhile to balance.

is there a spell file that we need for the server as well? as it stands, I use the UF client and I am getting a few "Unknown Spells" when I scribe my spells. Is there one I should be using, and where could I get it?

The unknown spells are not custom spells (there are no custom spells on the server, the only change to any spell was to make ice comet do a little bit more damage), just newer spells than UF has in its file. Im going to copy the RoF clients spells file to my UF client and see if that helps.

What spells are causing that for you?

I don't know, hence why I brought it up :P I cant see any spell info. the spell "scribes" as unknown and its effects are unknown as well.

Also, noticed the new buyable charms, and the coward has evacuate, but the Heroes charm is an unknown effect as well. so there is a reference :P

Nm on this, it's MY spell file (pretty sure it's the EZ server spell file)...I have to find the UF or other compliant spell file...
