Default Dragonpen Advance Progression Server

Dragonpen.org has been doing private servers for awhile I took a break from running them however after running a very successful wow private server for a very long time and loosing interest. Now I have decided to set my sites on EQ the constant addiction I can't break.

As for the EQ server we are planning something like this and as its starting to near completion I decided it was time to post it here first. We still are doing closed beta testing making sure everything is ready for when the server is switch to public login. Most of the dragonpen clan are old school EQ players we plan to bring back what made EQ classic pre PoP great by bringing it to the new content.

Server Details

What we mean for Advanced Progression Server.... We want to include all the features of the latest expansions better hotbars, targeting system, AA's, Mercs/bots but progress the server starting from Ruins of Kunark to the latest expansion however we plan to remove some features the newer expansions added that ruined the world of the game.

We will be doing this in the following ways:

1. 2 bot spawnable 64 bot max per account

2. Increased exp for aa, group, solo, raid (quest xp stays the same)

3. Increased money and rare item drops and rare spawns

4. GM guided progression we plan to run the server very close to the GM run Premium servers back in the day where GMs will be allowed and encourage to help put together and run raids for players on a daily/weekly bases

5. Limited progression we are launching the server with limited zones/level cap to progress players through each expansion with all the features of the latest expansion max cap at start will be 55 allowing players to still grind AA while waiting for progression unlock.... progression unlocks speed will be determined by the community
(we will have zones closed to keep players from entering everything past the initial EQ Ruins of Kunark release so all connecting expansion zones will be disabled)

6. No bazaar zones ever (both bazaar zones have been disabled this is to encourage old school person to person trade marketing the way it was back at the beginning)

7. No Plane of knowledge port stones all port stones and books around the world have been removed or disabled save one that connects PoK to the Nexus and the Nexus to PoK this is to bring back druid and wizards porting (bot ports may or may not be removed)

8. Corpses have your items and exp

9. Tier and bag/trinket vendors for end game tier sets with redeemable currency

10. No Tutorial Zone (Drakkin playable however all races can choose between Drakkin starting city Crescent Reach or race home city still working on limiting serpents spine content but connecting it to Ruins of Kunark expansion)

12. Guild lobby entrances in all AA still use able however exit to PoK will drop you in east commanlands till PoP expansion (work in progress hopefully we have it complete by launch)

13. Custom vendors in all starting cities with cheaper mounts and unique items (still working on full list of items to be on the vendors)

14. Higher level Power leveling via buffs completely allowed and encouraged to sell buffs for donations (same goes for corpse summons and resurrections)

15. Removal of Corpse summoners from guild lobby (still being decided we don't want to discourage use of necro corpse summons)
