Nice!
 

Now i'm not sure if i want to play Bloodthirster or Executioner haha

This looks incredibly interesting. The massive amount of work that has already gone into this project is obvious, and the effort is valiant, at the least.
My concern is the file download and replacement required to play this new style of EQ. Is there an idea of the learning curve or patch size required to play?
Again, this server idea is truely epic. A blend of customization, vast imagination and plain hard work. A commendable effort, to say the least. So far advanced over the "often advertised custom content" rarely exceeding a few items and a quest or 2..
Very well done.

Thank you very much for the feedback and compliments, Phorest. I felt like it was time to scratch the old Varlyndria which was my first server, but I ultimately felt it was not good enough to be gold. Ascension is where it needs to be after a year. It was simply time to upgrade from boy status to man status as far as servers go. I hope when Ascension is finished that you and your friends have a great time on it. The work I have invested to bring this place to everybody is going to be well worth it in the end.

Varlyndria: Ascension has the following custom files:

• spells_us.txt
• dbstr_us.txt
• GlobalLoad
• Optional MP3s that replace music in some zones.


All of the things I have posted are already tested and in the game using whatever EQ spell animation fits for that ability. There isn't going to be any major graphic downloads or anything, your client will handle almost all of it.

Meet the Shadowknights of Ascension if you dare...

must....play..........

No joke, I have read about all the classes that you have released info on. I still can't decide. I almost hate you for making my class a-d-d even worse.

They all sound pretty awesome and I love your approach to balance.

I'm glad you enjoy what you see so far, I am working very hard to bring a lot of variety and options for people to play with.
