Yes every thing is as close to real everquest as possible when it was released. CR's-Exp loss-Slow exp-Prolly alot of LFG-the whole thing :oops:

Sounds like the best server ever, doing things right the first time. Everyone ought to be there!

Joebrew 09-23-2009 01:37 AM
Do certain races get exp penalties like old times, example being half-elfs being slow levelers? Awesome work by the way and I cant wait to play.

Tantalar 09-23-2009 02:57 AM
yes lol half elf ranger, troll sk... they will be brutally hard to level up.

Morgo 09-23-2009 12:03 PM
Good. I'm glad things will be as difficult, or "classic" as they once were. No 2x exp, no porters or soulbinders indeed. If you really want these things, go play somewhere else - there's lots of servers with custom rulesets.

Hopefully the need to 2box never arises...

I will definetly be checking this out.Been waiting for the official release.

eq4me 09-24-2009 02:46 PM
Ooooh. My fingers are twitching and this time not from RSI. That is one server that could lure me out of hiding.

Well, if I only could remember one of my login passwords ...

I can't wait for this to come out, I've been waiting for EQC all this time!

Good luck guys, It isn't a classic client, but it's the classic content, which is probably the next best thing. Best of luck on your server!

This is exactly what I was looking for when I joined the EQEmulator community, and as soon as I heard about it I began beta testing for it. I'm very happy to see it finally being released, and it seems a lot of other people are to.

*cracks open a bottle of Blackburrow Stout*

Cheers!

Yes, racial and class based experience penalties will be in place (as far as I know). Personally, I have argued against keeping class based penalties but for keeping racial penalties, but I haven't heard any change in policy yet.

If I remember correctly, half elves have no inherent penalty or bonus. Halflings get a small bonus, ogres trolls and iksar get a large penalty.

As far as penalties are concerned, I responded in the other thread but not this one.

Here's a copy of the information

Code:
29 //experience modifiers based on race and class, used if USE_RACE_CLASS_XP_MODS is defined
  30 //                            hum    bar    eru    elf    hie    def    hef    dwa    tro    ogr    hal    gno    iks,    vah    frog
  31 float  race_modifiers[15] = { 100.0f, 105.0f, 100.0f, 100.0f, 100.0f, 100.0f, 100.0f, 100.0f, 120.0f, 115.0f, 95.0f, 100.0f, 120.0f, 100.0f, 100.0f}; // Quagmire - Guessed on iks and vah
  32
  33 //                            war  cle    pal    ran    shd    dru    mnk    brd    rog    shm    nec    wiz    mag    enc    bst    bes
  34 float class_modifiers[16] = { 9.0f, 10.0f, 14.0f, 14.0f, 14.0f, 10.0f, 12.0f, 14.0f, 9.05f, 10.0f, 11.0f, 11.0f, 11.0f, 11.0f, 10.0f, 10.0f};
legend: if smaller numbers are faster exp, then halfling warrior is fastest!

Rangers being heavily penalized when they're already the worst class makes zero sense (and Sony eventually admitted this).

But hey, Classic = Perfect right? :rolleyes:

nilbog 09-25-2009 08:40 PM
Sucks to be rangers in the story of classic. :(

Classic isn't perfect. It did, however, provide the fun and footwork necessary for sony to still be leeching money, 16 expansions later.

SilentCurse 09-25-2009 09:10 PM
Yes I do hope that you guys still try to keep a sense of balance, even though you want it to be 'classic'. Don't think 'classic' was the end all/be all of Everquest - the game is far from perfect, just don't let the quest for 100% classic destroy the fun for certain players. :)

edit: *cough* bards/rangers
