A few years ago I bought an mac mini just to run an instance of "The Al'Kabor Project" while working.
https://www.eqemulator.org/index.php?pageid=serverlist https://www.eqemulator.org/index.php?pageid=serverinfo&worldid=1557
It attracted me because it had the same cutoff on expansions as when i stopped playing eq.
Every couple of years get an itch to scratch with eq. Wonder if anyone on xo plays at all any more. |

How do they handle the spawn timer there? Same as on original? Are there many top guilds on rotation for ToV, Sontalak, Yeli, etc? |
|
Date: July 24th, 2025 3:51 PM Author: turquoise theater stage philosopher-king Yep all the same. Major targets on 7-day and 3-day timers with +- various hour windows on either side.
More or less 3 guilds competing for all the biggest targets -- Castle, Good Guys, and Kingdom. Good Guys probably still considered the top guild and Kingdom seems to be falling out lately. Castle has climbed pretty close to GG and has a more casual attitude. Lots of drama among the king neckbeards. I really only log in for the major kills when they ping you on Discord.
It's like an uber efficient version of the original, since some of these guys have been playing for 20 years and know every single mechanic.
I power leveled CSLG a bit. If you get an account let me know and I'll hook you up. Slippinn Jimmy is my main. |

i think i remember seeing the thread where you and clsg were talking eq, from a few years ago.
ty for the offer. i dont know if i want to get sucked into eq again lol. i always played wizzy, so could solo. then got into high level raiding.
thinking might do a bard or chanter, so could charm kite solo, so not dependent on groups for exp. how are bards on p99? |

I don’t think I’ve ever actually met anybody who played EQ2 |
|
Date: July 25th, 2025 1:39 PM Author: Contagious crackhouse death wish It was a great pvp game and was hugely popular for a while but Sony fucked up bigly by releasing it when they did because it split the EQ base up. Half the based stayed on EQ1 and the other half went to EQ2.
What SOE did was gradually reduce the player base with every update by nerfing classes perceived as being OP pissing off everyone playing those nerfed classes causing them to rage quit the game, instead of increasing the power of other classes. I never understood that. I guess its easier to nerf something than increase everything else.
I don't know about EQ1 but in EQ2 they had a "fame" system for pvp resulting in pvp titles that appeared next to your name. You would need like ten kills to make up for one death so players like me would be very careful about picking our battles. I was known as a "fame whore." I had my ranger that would hide just outside of tracking range and wait for group pvp fights to engage each other, then I'd run in and kill them all. It was a lot of fun.
At one point I was running with five other players in a group of six. We had a tank, a warden (big heals), a mystic (big wards), I played a troubadour (buffs and an ability to escape our group in the middle of a fight that would teleport us to a random spot on the map), and two high DPS guys. We would take on raids by ourselves fighting them for hours in front of the Griffon Station in Antonica without a single death. Man, those were the days.

i played UO too. i collected rares. camped daily server resets, was first to login at some spot to get a rock that wasnt attached by mistake lol. and were some other ones ppl would camp for, that rock would sell the best out of the daily rares. there were weekly and monthly rares too. and "server firsts" were insanely valuable ofc. |
