The Monk headband quests has been revamped and are active
for all races. You can get these quests in the Varlyndrian
monk guild. If anybody else has NPCs they want fixed in
their own guild please post them on the forums and I'll
revamp those quests to be doable by all races and give
better rewards.

Drak this server is shaping up really well. It's a great idea. Keep up the good work!

I'm trying to get it fixed up as best I can. It hasn't been easy so I really appreciate all the support. This is my first EQemu
server and alpha so it's a learning process too.

SPECIAL THANKS TO THE AWESOME EQEMU COMMUNITY FOR ALL OF THEIR HELP!

MAINTENANCE COMPLETE 05/10/12
UPDATED TO VERSION 2141 SUCCESSFULLY!

ONLINE CHANGES - 05/11/12

I Have began adding new code to the path npcs which will prevent players from choosing more than one path now as originally intended. Players can turn their charms into the new Path Changer NPC in the guild lobby to unlock the ability to become something different within their guild. I have the warriors done right now and should have the rest of the classes done in a couple days.

Please keen in mind I will be doing a final purge of charms on bots to finally get the server balanced where it needs to be. With this change I feel the experience could be toned up a bit now so I will probably up it a couple notches.

SMALL UPDATE - 05/12/12

Experience rates have been increase by 0.2

SERVER DOWNTIME - 05/14/12 -12:00pm MST

The server will be coming down at 05/14/12 - 12:00pm MST. The estimated downtime is 2 hours.

NOTE TO ALL PLAYERS: Bots will be purged of all charms while the server is down tomorrow. I have added code to all NPC paths which finally brings Varlyndria to the balance I originally intended. Players can no longer get more than one charm and the only way they can change paths is by turning their current charm into the new PATH CHANGER npc located in the Guild Lobby.

Varlyndrian Herald: One of the Norrathians swear they saw the shadow of a huge
being next to a holy place. The man died shortly after and wasn't able to tell
the exact location of where he saw it.
__________________________________________________ _____________________________
Varlyndria will soon be hosted on a powerful server machine. This should allow a lot
more players in one zone and raids will be possible with bots, swarm classes
and more.
(Special thanks to Lord Adakos)
__________________________________________________ _____________________________
Barison Garthak now has a new TANKING weapon to give to new tank players or bots.
__________________________________________________ _____________________________
The Adventurer's merchant now has a new TANKING weapon for sale for players or
bots.
__________________________________________________ _____________________________
All Tier 1 path charms on bots have been removed. This will be the last purge
because all class path NPCs are now fixed and will never allow more than 1 charm
per character at any given time. Players may change their path but they must
first turn their charm into the Path Changer who can be found inside the main
Varlyndrian Lobby.
__________________________________________________ _____________________________
Tier 1 charms have been changed back to normal lore because of the changes.
__________________________________________________ _____________________________

ETA untill path weapons are out?

Sometime this month is what I am aiming for.

UPDATE: 05/15/12

NOTE: Look for the server on the top of the white server listings. It now looks like this: !Varlyndria

Varlyndria is officially on a hosted server now and should be running much better for guild raids, massive bot parties and swarm pets!

Enjoy!

RESTART 05/16/12


Bots are back to normal and group buff, cap at 5 and have extremely fast mana regen.


PLEASE KEEP IN MIND THE SERVER IS UP BUT IT DOESN'T CURRENTLY SHOW ON THE LAUNCHER LIST REGISTERED. (WORKING ON FIXING THIS)
Look for ! Varlyndria at the top of the white list.

SMALL UPDATE 05/16/12


Resistance bonuses for being higher level that the caster have changed in the casters
favor. The target will no longer gain 5% per level higher than the caster but instead now
gain 2%. This will allow a level 25 caster going against a level 45 enemy almost a 50% chance
to land their attacks instead of 100% resists as before.

Pets no longer steal exp of any kind.

__________________________________________________ _____________________________
Conjurer's weapons no longer have a proc and their staff is now nodrop/magician
only and has changed from a proc to a clicky effect. The clicky is the old proc
spell. The weapon models have been nerfed for tradable items. This change was to
bring Conjurer's into their own realm instead of being used as bot suppliers only.
Conjurer's can still supply bots and other players with nice stat weapons but the
day of 5 berserker bots with conjured proc weapons is over.

Conjurer's can also summon a nice 1 handed sword now too. (as per request)
__________________________________________________ _____________________________
Diablo The Lord Of Terror and Gorbatroth the Crusher have had their health
nerfed by 60% because of the new changes to conjured weapons.
__________________________________________________ _____________________________
Clerics now gain a large amount of fire spells from the wizard class. The spells
gained are 2 levels higher than when wizards gain them. This change is to help the
Heretic dps path actually do something besides watch their pet fight.
