Alternate Advancement (AA's) Announcement

[Richardo]

Greetings, most of you know of me as Richardo but I have grown quite numerous in Everquest Live Characters and I want to start a group that levels up 50+ characters just for AA abilities for Everquest Emulation. I have a 65Rogue 63Necromancer 62Warrior 65Shadowknight 65Druid 65shaman on seperate accounts I can level all at once to work on AA's. The good part is, the druid has the most aa's and it only has 6, the rest have 1 or 2 so I can spend some decent time on packet collecting but I would really like to start this and get it going to get Everquest Emulation working again with AA's and help out as much as possible, if anyone would like to join me and help out, that would be awesome. I cant start till after July 14th when my server Lord of the Rings gets running Live but. If you have any live characters you would'nt mind leveling up, please. Feel free to give me an e-mail at Clarion802@aol.com and I would like to speak with you about your character/class ect.. Thanks

Your idea is very good, i think here, we all would like to be able to use AA under EQEmu, but for me, spend your time on collecting AA isnt valuable, even if its welcome. Omen of War will be out in mid August/mid September, and AA should be broke one more time (Say me if im wrong, im still new in EQEmu community).

You should better start to intensively collect AA once that Omen of War will be out, well i know, you wont be able because it will be end of summer *sigh*.

Once again, i dont discourage you, gogogo, but keep in mind your job wont be for a long time :(

[Virus11]

Yeah I bet just to be an asshole SOE will change everything around again.

[JohnRev]

I've got a 65 Wiz, 65 War, 63 Shaman, 60 Cleric, and 55 Monk/Necro. Wiz has 312 AA's, others around 30ish each. If I can help out perhaps with the collection of AA points, please reply. I'd love to help sort out the AA problems, though the Omen expansion comment posted by the one and only Khan(cute little Frenchie) is very much correct. There is, in some ways, no point collecting AA's, as there will be new ones soon and the codes once again broken.

[Swampdog]

Have they given a new date for Omen yet? I thought Smedley postponed until later in the year it because everyone was bitching about Sony being too focused on lining their pockets with players cash than they were about fixing all the problems they created with the DX9 implementation.. Was it August/Sept that they postponed it to?

[cofruben]

if anyone collect AA's,please PM me the opcodes,purchasing an ability if possible.thanks

65 Rogue with up to Elemental Gear on Xegony, but dont wanna move him to another server. =(

Aims - SnugglesOWNS15 if I can still be of service to you.

[Richardo]

You dont have to move servers. Just packet collect! Simple as that, the more we work together the quicker to get it done and the more detication put on this project I plan to start the easier it will be on all of us.

-First, of all about Omens of War, whenever those new AA's come out, bring it on. After they come out and possible break the newest AA system. Ill be ready to redo the AA's and recreate new characters, I have plenty of 50+ Live Characters and im willing to put this in my list of top daily priorities, before my server though ofcourse.

-Second, leaving your server is not a requirement, nor a recommendation. Stay on your server, being on the same server does'nt change the fact of packet collecting.

-Third, this project would be not invite you as a part of the DEV team but make the jobs of the Dev's a lot easier on them so they have one less burden to worry about. Do not trouble the dev's about the AA's anymore, ask me about our progress because I will be starting this soon. (Also: I am not a DEV for the record)

-Fourth, I am not responsible for your characters, you must supply your own leveled characters or friends characters and use them. We will not trade each others characters unless you have a true trust with a friend, but otherwise than that. You are responsible for your own character and whom you allow access on it. And do not discuss your buisness of leveling in Everquest LIVE for it is no ones buisness if you plan to pursue this project with me.

Thank you,
Rich

Omens of War is coming out August 2004 I think, you can preorder it now though.

[Wandiwen234]

65 Druid 421 AA, 65 Warrior 321 AA =) both time flagged. And If we had a packet collector that worked w/ Win 98 I could get tons of info about GoD zones and stuff. <Hates XP>.

Here's my guilds link www.BloodCult.net

Try ethereal!

Think main site is down right now, but you should be able to get it at http://winpcap.mirror.ethereal.com

[JohnRev]

I'll try and grind some AA and use the packet to collect purchasing information.

[relorm500]

it wont let me send E-mail so

i like 63 necro =P.....


AIM is Hakusho92

[Scorpion360]

Anyone wanna let me use the account and i will help them out

AIM = OiRU

[Valor]

no offense to Scorpion360 but i seen tons of people get there account ripped off by posts like that. i wouldnt recommend any one giving out account info!

[Scorpion360]

I know, i'm not forcing you to give me anything, but i have been around here for quite awhile and have GM'd on green servers.

I know theres nothing that i can do to make you trust me, but i give you my word that i won't rip you off.

Take it how you will.

[Swampdog]

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't recall anyone offering to give any account information out. I think the offer was more of an offer to help people get to a level where they could help collect AA information with their own characters. :)

[Scorpion360]

I know, but considering how i don't have an account and you guys have like 6 each i thought i would help you out by using one.

[Virus11]

I sent you one through PM.

[Fajo]

65 Mage Tunare 130aa's 14 unspent


All for helpin to fix the aa's would be awsome to have them in eqemu hehe PvP and that could get quite evil with them =D

[Richardo]

*If you packet collect, send me a zip file of the AA's with a readme.txt file tellign me what class this is and what aa's were purchased*

E-MAIL-Clarion802@aol.com

I will be packet collecting on shm necro druid warrior rogue at same time after June 14th.

[Magick]

Considering the outrageous costs of some of the new Gates AA, it would be nice if a dev could give the community an idea of what needs to be collected yet as far as AA.

I know I had sent pc logs of me buying about 90aa's worth of crap to a few Dev's and never heard anything about it (nor a reply). I also sent PC's using HT (w/ AA), HT disced (w/ AA), Hybrid AA horse, etc. This was months ago and was mostly the higher end hybrid aa's (you know, the ones that need you to max one or two other things first).

In any case, it would make the task much easier to know what people already have collected and what they don't. If you look at this post and the collected effort -- I'd hate to see y'all waste 2+ weeks busting nuts to gain aaxp and blow 300 hard-earned AA on abilities that the dev's already have PC'd numerous times.


If there is such a list around, I have yet to see it (and you damned straight I know how to use the search function :) )

i wish i could help, but sadly i dont have access to an eq1 account atm, if i could get access to one i would do it for sure.

[devn00b]

Try ethereal!

nice try but it wont collect the packets we need or anyone else for that matter needs. all you would get is the combined/compressed/encrypted packets and im sure none of you want to try to uncombine/decompress/decrypt the packet stream to look for the op code then look for the real opcode inside the packet you just decoded.

[Magnifico]

I will run the packet collector for you, im a bard and currently have maxed aa's on sullon zek, when omens comes up im gonna PBAoE in Fire again so i will leave the packet thing up the whole time i do it.
