Server is officially back up. Any other down times that may be experienced should only last a few seconds as all the major stuff is done.

Happy Hunting!

looks great guys keep up the good work

are you sure? I just checked database nothing has changed with the access level for the commands

is the #castspell command going to be added at all?

No, instead we will be implementing a buff bot to handle all your buffing needs. We'll probalby stick one in all the major fighting zones that people use a lot aswell as PoK. We have that in the works right now, shouldn't be long.

Also ETA on the server downtime should be about 10-15 minutes, maybe a little shorter maybe a little longer. I'll post again once it's back up.

I'd suggest fixing the lvl 71-75 skill table too.
when players (of every class) lvl over 70 their skills got back to 0-30
I believe this is because the skill table has not been added for lvl 71-75 yet so it wasnt working.
Anyway is the PoP AA table gonna be added soon? It's a huge improvement on every characters.

Ok thank you will do, and yes we should have just added a table to put that in, I'm logging onr ight now to check.

The skills table isn't the problem - the skills table goes all the way to 75 for all classes and skills which baffles us. We're working on the issue now.

RE: Krusher changes
 

I like what I've been seeing the last few days on this server. Lots of people online, having a blast. Now that Ancient Coldain weapons have been thoroughly gimped, more character variety is being seen. Maybe we will even see a few Enchanters now that their epic has been made so godly. Nice thinking on the epics.
All the Epic 1.0s have been boosted substantially (except warriors, since 9 out of 10 high levels are already warriors--though leaving dmg so low is pretty harsh--maybe a 1/1 ratio of dmg/delay). Plane of Knowledge is NOW open as well. (even though #zone command is the smart way to travel :) )
It seems that experience has been modified as well to make up for the Ancient Coldain nerf. #search for you epic then #si [id] and you will be 70 in no time.
Would love to see a "coming soon" sticky. Its all good though. Love logging to server screen and seeing 20-30 people on my favorite server. Everyone is VERY helpful here.

Thank you for the compliments. We're doing all we can to increase class diversity and make it a fun environment for people to play in. If you have any suggestions, feel free to shoot me a PM or post them here.

I fixed the level cap issue and the skills cap issue. Everyone should now be able to level up to level 75 and all skills should now level properly as well.

Enjoy!,
Dillon

This server is the shit.

Beer Bong teh Pwn - 75 Shaman
Cake the Devastator - 75 Shadow Knight
Bacon Bits - 75 Berserker
Frozen Pizza - 75 Wizard
Four Twenty - 75 Rogue

lol guess you've been playing quite a bit huh? We told yall that it the downtime would be worth it!

The high exp bonus is kind of an apology for all the downtime, but once we get things a little more stable, exp is going back to hard :-p

Enjoy it while you can!,
Dillon

I lowered the exp a bit - It's still higher than normal, but a guy went from level 1 to 70 in 15 mins :-/

Good lord, I cannot wait to get eqemu running so I can play on this server. Only 1 hour until lunch, then...to EB!

Must have been a ranger with the AE mantle (not sure of the name). I saw a guy zip right through with that thing.

Just thought I'd make a post here about this since people in game seem to not want to listen to the admins on this request. Item Stacking IS NOT allowed. Violators WILL be caught and WILL be dealt with and punished according. Consider this your warning.

What exactly is item stacking?

An exploit (that some servers allow) that allows you to multiply item's stats by up to 5x

Any reason my character wouldn't save? I made a rogue earlier and logged back in to find that I had no existing characters on the server.

Not only that now I am not able to use the #search or summon commands. Says my access is not high enough.

Found this server last night, great work guys. I was able to roll a character, and work my way through guk clearing to the ghoul lord and levelling to 45.

Brought back some really great memories, I appreciate it. :)

Chuteboxe, PM me with your ingame name please.

Outstanding server!!
 

This server is fantastic. Superfast leveling and great gameplay. If you ever wanted to have a high-end character in Everquest but didn't feel like spending years of frustration dealing with live servers - this is your opportunity. Try it you WILL like it)

Enjoy the leveling while you can though, while it will still always be faster then live, as we start putting in more content we'll be lowering the xp rates little by little. But we will have hotzones. We have a few in right now which include Blackburrow, Mistmoore, Emerald Jungle and Plane of Fire. I know I'm missing some but I'm drawing a blank the moment. I just got done revamping BoT to prevent people from pulling entire wings. If you do, you will have a pleasant surprise running after you...namely the boss of the wing who now quads for up to about 3.2k and has roughly 180k HP, summons, enrages, flurrys, and rampages. Have fun! :grin:

i finally got on the server yesterday but didnt go to 70 in 15 minutes. can i have my money back?

seriously it was fun to dress up my char by looking up items. i didnt even realize some of the higher stat items there were all/all with no level restriction. so that got me to think about equipment in general and on my own little bitty server i outfitted my 65 ranger with a set of items that i didnt even know existed.

Hmmm, that brings up a good point. What is the final goal for the server as you get things nailed down and working? What do you envision your population spending their time doing? Where do you want to take it?

(just out of curiosity)

We're going to start making alot of the bosses (Plains bosses and such) very high hitting and high HP to encourage more grouping and raiding. But mostly it's just a fun server :)

Also, you'll have a couple of high end quests to do for each class. We hope to implement both Epics 2.5 and 3.0 for all classes and possibly an armor quest or two for each class although that's not confirmed yet.

Rofl :) that'll put a damper on things for sure.

That was kind of the point, server can't handle people pulling 2 wings of BoT, big lag spikes and whatnot when it happens. Now if you try to do that you're just plain stupid lol.

Oh, I'm sure you current playerbase will find a way to overthrow the wing bosses. Sounds like a fun challenge actually :).

Thats fine by me, the bosses WERE meant to be killed. I just revamped everything in there to prevent people from pulling entire wings, that wasn't meant to happen.

Is there a way to login to the server by bypassing the EQemu server select? I'm new to this and it would make my life so much easier. Quick connect won't work on the Krusher Server (sends me to random servers) and the server select is still causing me to crash 99 percent of the time.

Hmm, not sure why quick connect won't work for you, it works fine for me.

That's a bug on EQEmu's side. One you get a "Survey" screen that pops up, answer it, and you should stop crashing. They still haven't discovered a fix for it yet.

In eqPlayerData.ini, there is this section:
I think that LastServerID is dynamic, like after a LS reboot or something... servers might come in first-come, first-serve, and get a new ID. I had hoped the LoginServer used a unique ID set when we registered our servers, but apparently not. Short answer, there's not much you can do about it unless you know the ID of the server you are quick-connecting to, and change this file first.

This is speculation, because it happens to me all the time as well. I have accounts all over the servers because of this.

Which is unfortunate considering it's been several years since the bug was first discovered :confused: :shock: Hopefully one day there's something that will be found to finally fix that thing.

I just wish they'd fix the crash bug. I have no idea if it's client side or LS... but yes it's definitely driving people away from playing.
