Every EQ patch has a chance to break the emu. Even the slightest code change can throw off the emu until the coders can figure out what they changed and then make the changes on EQEmu. Sometimes this is very easy (such as adding a few lines of code). This is not always the case. In fact, I can remember a couple times when it took weeks and even months to fix EQEmu to work with latest patch at that time. Most of the time the updates are to their servers and not the client itself. Most spell changes shouldn't effect EQEmu.


This is why it is crucial you make backups of your EQ folder in several places (1 for playing eqlive, 1 for current EQ patch for EQEmu use, and 1 with last patch for EQEmu use if it gets broken).
