Kildrukaun's Prophecy
 

Hello everyone!
I would like to introduce all of you to a new Everquest Emulator Server, Kildrukaun’s Prophecy (KP). KP is a lore driven small group based/raid progression oriented server with both Classic and Custom content managed by an experienced group of developers who have been active in the EQEmu community as players for many years. Given years of experience playing and developing within the EQEmu community, the KP dev team has crafted a unique EQ experience focused on original lore and custom stories that allow us to weave the fabric of a grand new adventure for our players. Below are the server features, but I would like to stress that we are constantly working on new content/features, so this is only the beginning.

Server Features:
Progression Oriented Experience. Players progress and unlock the expansions at their own rate. Upon server release all content through our custom expansion (After PoP) will be live and ready to be unlocked.
Solo and Raid progression quests available. Don't feel like raiding? You can unlock the content Solo or with your box crew. The ability to progress for a guild is still available by raiding the strongest mobs per expansion.
Levels capped based on progression. Level cap increases from 50-60 upon unlocking Kunark, and then once you unlock Luclin the ability to purchase AA will become available. Once PoP is unlocked for you the level cap will then be adjusted to 65, and once you unlock the Custom expansion the cap is raised to 70.
Mob strengths adjusted. Solo players should find an easier time leveling through the game. Raid content WILL require a small raid - generally balanced for 9-12 characters with a few exceptions that players will find might need a few more.
Eastern Commonlands. The zone has received a major overhaul with custom traders and NPCs which include casinos and bazaar style traders that will sell your loot while you continue your story.
Classic EQ style spell acquisition. Classes who receive spells receive them every 4-5 levels. The 1-50 spells are all obtained the classic way and pure casters spells are no long vendor bought but are researched. Don’t worry its not nearly the level of live but just enough to make you casting that level 49 pet the envy of every group member!
Ykesha noobie quests. These have been added to classic to give the players equipment that is similar to pre-planar so that the main focus is leveling and spell acquisition. Also many of these noobie quests stories have been altered to tie in with our custom lore.



Server Rules and Values:
Rates.Experience rates are 1.35x. Skill rates are 150%, AA Experience rate is 1.55x
Regen. Out of Combat Regen is 5%. Downtime is still quick, but it will take a minute or two before players will regen full from 1%. In combat regen for Stamina, Health, and Mana has been increased but is nothing that a player should rely solely upon.
Multi-Boxing. Multi-boxing is allowed up to three (3) accounts.


The KP dev team is very excited to launch this server and bring a unique experience to the EQEmu community. If you would like to know more, check out our forums at http://kpemu.com/forums/.

I wanted to stop by and say this server is a blast! Leveling is just right so you *enjoy* the experience, its not just a race to the cap.

The ykesha newby quest are a nice new addition, making life abit easier in the early levels (especially for melee).

EC has a unique spin to it, as soon as you enter the zone you start to see scripted ooc's selling ports, buffs, looking for items etc etc. The casino is pretty good to and the odds just feel right.

The balance feels good too, usually if I die its my fault for getting greedy and not taking my time =D.

All in all I would highly recommend KPEMU for any player seeking that classic feel but doesn't want to deal with the grind of the old days.

having a blast so far. Its certainly got the classic feel but modified just enough to not be a pain in the ass to level up. No bots or insta-spells but you dont have to do corpse runs. Progression seems interesting and involved. Friendly community, even some real grouping going on imagine that!

curious - can you literally give Item X to an npc, and set selling price to Y, then another player can coming in and buy this specific item?
Or does npc simply emulates "selling" by giving you some X cash after some time Y has passed?

We have a merchant who will take X item for Y price. display it on their merchant window and when a player purchases the item the seller gets the money in their bank after they zone.
(sorry on my phone)
we also have a few npcs who purchase items from players but thats just simple perl scripts.

That's pretty much exactly how it works :)


Just wanted to drop in and say the dev team on KP is awesome, very passionate guys that are dedicated to offering a great and fun experience.

Oh man, it's Vaion, he posted on EQEmu forums!

Hi sir.

also

Bront and his team are bad-fucking-ass, trust me I spent hours on con-call with him during the early days of Nagafen's lair.

Great Server
 

I just wanted to drop a few lines here and say how much fun this new server is. We've had quite a number of new people start and it's very fun - borderline addicting with progression in place.

Bront / Kizel / Baell have done an excellent job on the server and if anyone reading this post has a few moments - you should check it out.

Dedicated staff - they have been on to fix any bugs / glitches and everything has run very smoothly. There's next to no downtime (quick server restarts for any updates) and a very good community.

Stop by and check it out -

Krok moving out
 

Sorry for bad language, english is not my motherlanguage.

Hello Europa,
thanks for taking me in the guild. I will miss the chances to play in / with an european timed guild again for really some time!

Hello Devs,
first and last - no complaints here!

Today i asked the community if im doing something wrong solo-playing the Troll BL - or maybe missed some server specials. Thanks again for all response. Answer is no. I wount and didnt complain about the arrangements, just asked for information.

When i said "Then i call this a 3-botter server! - Have fun anyone." -
the response (in 30 sec. camping-out timer) was about "another guy that wants to be 50 in a day", got to ... server if you want to ..., etc.

Yep, ill go back to Irreverent, that has much slower ex income and levelup, but for my taste "soloable fun gameplay" chances.

Europa - i will miss playing with u guys before i ever started to really get used to you !

Devs - no complaints here! Go ahead and create your world!

BL is deleted.

(meant honestly like ingame ->)

Have fun anyone :) .

Bump, my favorite emu server. classic content with improvements to downtime etc. come check it out if you havent already.

....
 

Great GM staff here - always special events during the holidays. Server is really starting to pick up and the community is always helping new members with gear start.

Have many people here from P99 as well as other servers. We're always looking for more :)

The server is very well managed and has great uptime - come check us out!

This server is a blast. Been playing for about a month or so... I don't see myself leaving anytime soon.

Bumpity bump bump.

Been on the server for about 2 weeks now and I can't pull myself away.

All the parts of old world EQ that you might be missing you get to experience here without the parts that, let's be honest, no one really misses. The XP rate is near perfect, you won't make 50 in 3 hours of gameplay, which makes the ride feel that much more rewarding.

The Dev team is always quick with responses and very involved in the forums listening to all of our complaints and ideas.

If you wan't EQ that isn't ez-mode and not as unforgiving as p99 then come give this server a shot, seriously, you won't regret it.

www.kpemu.com

In celebration of us being promoted to Green Status (Thanks again EQEmu Dev team!) We will be having a 3 day EXP bonus in place starting today and going through Monday.

Alot of things have changed since i last posted here so stop by and check us out at www.kpemu.com!

Ykesha quests
 

Hello,

Where can I find/start the ykesha quests?

Zethriel level 4 HE ENC

how many people play on this server atm? The fact that p99 is somewhat populated is p much what keeps me around.

There were 60ish on when I logged in last night (Euro times). Not sure what it's like during US peak times.

I've seen 80-100 at peak

There are a number of guides written on our forums at www.kpemu.com, if its not listed for your class/race combo, you can simply look them up on allakhazam, unless generally noted on the forums they are pretty much the same as live.


We seem to be averaging 60-100 during peak US hours, 50-80 mid day/afternoon, and mornings tend to be 20-30s. Based on my observations (all times are US EST)

Hi Bront.

give me candy.

tq qt 3.14

On monday we broke the record of 125 players

I think you should stop playing video games.

541 days played through raptr?

Damn man.

We currently support Titanium through UF. Though we are phasing out Titanium support soon (only ~5% of our players use it.)

New Custom Zone
 

Announcing the first in a series of custom zones that will in time become its own custom expansion, tying in with the lore of Kildrukaun and Kerafrym as it progresses. A list of features are below:

Zone is geared toward level's 15-50.
30 new custom lootable items.
35 new custom tradeskilled items.
Unique task and quest.
5 Group bosses ranging from level 20 to level 45.
1 Unique raid boss.

All of the tradeskill reagents are trade-able and the final combines are tradeable as well, but are attuneable. These custom items are meant as a bridge between kunark and classic in terms of power, and should be highly sought after for the newer players to KPEMU, but they will also be a welcome sight for veterans who want to level up new characters as well!

The raid boss is entirely new, with mechanics not seen on KPEMU yet, this will not be a tank and spank for level appropriate raids. His drops will also have unique new models for those that like to collect!

This was, hands down, the best EMU server I have ever played on. It had some creative custom zones/tradskilling, rare drop tokens that were used to buy custom gear, mixed with the classic feel and a requirement of working to unlock each expansion for each account, not just handing them too you or opening them up to everyone because the high end guilds powered through to the end boss of the previous expansion. Was sad to see politics kill the population and eventually the server entirely. If this came back or there was another server similar, I would spend all of my time there. again.

If Bront wasn't so unstable in the aspect of running a server, I'd bring this back.

He made his donation $$ and split I guess.

After he integrated Nagafen's Lair into KPEMU.

...
 

Honestly - Bront had some good ideas - but his coding was absolute shit. The server was fun but was buggy as fuck and the scripting was terrible.

But in typical Bront fashion - makes a server and then goes afk for months.

I would be VERY cautious joining a server Bront is the GM of.

He is indeed a good developer, but a lousy admin/gm.

I remember him banning all sorts of people just because he didnt like and then there was the whole issue with giving stuff away for other people.
It was the best server hands down!

...
 

Should bring it back Maze - lots of people that played KP are waiting for a small group raid server like KP.

Only way I'd bring it back is if I had 2-3 devs to work with.

If Kingly didn't waste all his time with ballsack servers, ghanja wanted to work, and I had time outside of my company acquisition, I'd definitely "remake" NL, but a more refined and updated version, as all the the things from there were used 4 or 5 years ago when I didn't know my ass from my head.

Just now seeing this. Maze PM me with what you have in mind.

.
 

What I would give for a semi-legit small group raid server again... would be AWESOME if this was brought back. Played on NL before and after Bront took control. It was quite a fun place till he took donations and took down the server to make KPEMU - then took donations and split again.

Kizel was a great dev as well - so was Kingly Krab when he assisted on the server. Can't say much for Bront and that other dev.

Sounds like a fun concept.

I offer my help wherever I see that it may be needed, I've had my fair share of denial, just because of how people seem to like to fuck over peoples' projects. But I don't see how any server I help is a ballsack server, I mean, population peaks when development picks up, which I contribute to in many cases. I can offer my assistance to your server and any server, and that is something that I maintain, I only have 24 hours in my day like everyone else though, so I can't be expected to be putting in 40 hour work weeks on five or six different development projects. That being said, that's an issue with development, if I spread myself thin, I get a lot done, but not a lot done for any particular person or group of people. I wish I had more time to do all of this, I enjoy this project, this community, and the thrill of learning all of this semi on my own. But yeah, I'll assist, that's no problem. Message me on Skype with any information you have or want, and I'll see what I can do for you, or for anyone for that matter. Sorry for the long message, just don't get to do this much, so why not? Haha. Thanks for reading all of that.

TL;DR I'll assist, but time constraints may apply to any development.

The last time I messaged you on skype you called me emily and wanted to cyber.

I was totally down for some roleplay.
